ED list: 1. Chainsaw Blood by Vaundy 2. Time Left by Zutomayo 3. Hawatari Niku Centi by Maximum the Hormone 4. Tablet by TOOBOE 5. In the Backroom by Syudou 6. Rendezvous by Kanaria 7. Chu, Tayousei by Ano 8. First Death by TK from Ling Tosite Sigure 9. Deep Down by Aimer 10. Dogland by People 1 11. Violence by Queen Bee 12. Fight Song by Eve OP: Kick Back by Kenshi Yonezu
This list was so close to literal perfection but I realllllllllly did not like the ED for episode 11. Both the visuals and the song. Was super disappointed in that with how perfect literally every other one was.
As soon as this anime ended, I knew this video would be coming out and would be amazing, very glad you enjoyed this one and hope you stick around for season 2 whenever it comes out
Thanks so much for making 2022 a great year for me in spite of the many, many difficulties faced by the channel. You've been by my side throughout it all and a great many of you made it your personal mission to help me and I can never thank you enough for that. Anyway onto the video, Chainsaw Man was an absolutely banging anime, I loved it an unreasonable amount to be frank. Hopefully you show this video some love and appreciation since, as I mentioned at the end, it contains over 1000 parts that I pieced together by hand and is by far my largest video to date. I wish you all a brilliant 2023 and hopefully we can continue to love and appreciate anime throughout an ideally amazing new year! Edit: Forgot to mention I brought it out today, the 29th of December on a Thursday as I wanted to drop it outside of new years eve when again most people are busy. After this I will be releasing back on Saturdays as per usual.
I wish you good luck next year dude! Also. For Win 321. There's a weird translation this episode. The Future Devil told Aki his death will be the worst, not that it rules. Though Devils can be sadistic, so the fact it "rules" could be another way to look at it, keeping in mind the sadism of devils.
Denji's line about 'banning that op move' is like 5 wins in my mind, if you're observant you should have noticed the Katana devil has used that three times now and each time it OHKO'ed the target. Wayyy too strong for the current meta, absolutely nerf that shit.
Happy New year from Ukraine, Animewins-sensei) As always, endless thanks and cries of joy for this difficult 2022. Hope 2023 and beyond will only be kind to you and your family. You deserve it... And then some... Tatakae)
I don’t know if I’m the only one who didn’t notice until going back and thinking about it but “easy revenge” is a callback to Aki putting the gum on the women’s back
I don’t wanna spoil too much but if you read the mangas he does Possess “one spider man ability” i can’t say which one but I can confirm he is a fan due to chainsaw man using one of Spider-Man’s abilities lol Also it’s not really Spider-Man’s ability it’s just a reference to one of spideys powers
Interesting thing I noticed in episode 11, when Denji and Power finally got a hit on Kishibe, Denji's pants leg is split vertically, foreshadowing what is going to happen in the fight between him and the Katana Man.
Something that floored me, more than it's action or BOP of an opening, was the number of quiet, atmospheric scenes. For a show with a name like Chainsaw Man, you expect a seinen slugfest with a pretty even spread of action, tragedy and a dash of comedy. But there are scenes like Himeno's drunken walk through the apartment, or the scene in the hospital that cut the music and give you a few minutes of contemplative ambience. Aside from giving audiences a break from the massacres that the fight scenes can be, it really does help sell the setting and let's the watchers immerse themselves. A real ballsy move by the artists, and one I think pays off in spades.
Ikr? Tbh I held off on reading the manga for so damn long despite a ton of recommendations from reviewers and friends alike just because the name Chainsaw Man sounded so fucking stupid to me. Then you get stuff in it like Aki & Himeno, the Denji's goals throughout the season actually being dead serious, hilarious, and emotionally impactful at the same time, just all of it was so damn good. Really wish the manga would update faster.....
I feel like the moment Denji crawled on the floor at 31:17 is a small nod to the fact Pochita became his heart and Pochita was a dog, hence the crawl instead of just getting up
1:07:15 If I remember right, we actually get told by Himeno (eyepatch) back during the infinity devil arc, that Kobeni (shy girl) is really pretty adept at combat, she just lacks the confidence.
Denji and Power are the best kind of duo: The buddies who share one braincell. That moment they were plotting against that hunter was pretty much hilarious.
Denji just like Power do not have a chance for education like other people, so they are like little kids one dude lived alone in slums with pet and her lived in forrest with also a pet we do not even know did denji know what the school is people call denji idiot with low IQ but he sometimes show how smart he is. maybe its no IQ but knowledge is what he do not have when he meet makima he had lose too much of blood to use his brain, he even need time to realise that she said his name he outplayed Aki for xxx magazines, trap for teacher was quite good and katana-man for hidden chainsaw in leg
One thing I greatly appreciate about MAPPA is they tend to pick newbies for lead roles and also like to work with new or anonymous musicians for their osts. So many vocaloid/former vocaloid creators were brought on board for the op and eds.
Mappa have truly set a new benchmark with artstyle and animation with this CSM. Insane attention to detail and cinematography are next level and they did not let it slip episode after episode. Thank you mappa, and thank you fujimoto
I can't express my gratitude towards them in mere words. Also I don't care how many people are gonna hate the CGI, I still didn't mind it AND prefer it over Chinese censorship
1:12:02 it isn't spelled out in the manga but people think that Denji's brain didn't properly heal. She damaged it again by bashing him and, when he re-healed, his brain was fully repaired. Like rebooting a computer.
Got to say having seen this anime I was shocked to see you were able to get this video to be almost an hour and a half with how (beautifully) gory this thing is and I also couldn't be happier!
I don't understand how people can hate the CGI in this anime, like as long as you're not trying to notice it, it's a really fluid experience. Also any of the eds could've worked for an entire session, but getting 12 separate ones? Actually insane (Also I like the detail that the eternity devil's ed is called in the backroom, if you know yt horror, you know)
the thing i loved most about kobeni runnin up the snake tail in ep9 is that in ep 5 (i think) Himeno said something about kobeni being very skilled but her timidness holding her back
A small detail that gets overlooked but the eyepatch girl didn't say "I'll give you my body" or "I'll give you my life". She specifically told ghost she will give it EVERYTHING and i think that included her feelings. This explains why the hand resurrected Denji and why it gave him the cigarette.
This became one of my favorite anime, and I can't believe you already got this video out so fast. I'm a huge fan of yours and I appreciate your work very much. I find myself watching your videos to find new anime to watch. You introduced me to Konosuba, for which I'll always be grateful. :) Chainsaw man really rocked me. I loved the art, the music, the story, the characters, everything. It's in my top five favorite anime of all time now. Great video as always (at least, the first few minutes are - I accidentally came in pretty early. ;-). I agree with you about the opening - it's pretty incredible. I play it sometimes just to watch it. I also really loved Denji's voice actor - he's amazing. Thank you for your expertise, humor, and all of your work! The scene where Aki presses Denji's head up against the window in episode two - there's one more meaning. Or foreshadowing. Aki hears that Denji would befriend a devil... and immediately assigns Power to work with him, killing two birds with one stone. I like Aki for a lot of reasons, and I really think this is one of them. I'm going to sin this video one sin for saying the Soviets were so long ago. It wasn't that long... was it? Oh my.
I hope you enjoy the rest of the video, I poured my absolute everything into making it. I actually worked on it for many, many days and that way I could get it out so soon afterwards but I won't lie, it was an enormous undertaking.
That scene of Aki slowly making his coffee, than setting up on the porch sold me on his character. A smoke and a coffee is a classic Canadian breakfast, I love the little details of Chainsawman
The manga made me feel things dude. I always thought it was odd that I never found books or other forms of written media to be as jarring as their animated or live action counterparts, but fuck me, the manga is literary gold. I think i got dehydrated with how many tears there were.
One thing I love about the manga is how kobeni is presented. We know she doesn’t want to be sexualized due to her choice if being a devil hunter, so she is the least sexualized out of all the characters as that would go against her character.
Fun fact about Katana man's special move: The delayed cut where his opponent take a while to actually got affected by it is actually part of his power and he got affected by it too. That's why he can trash talk for a few seconds before getting sliced in half.
1:06:40 I believe it was that they we’re schooled at what they saw instead of sunlight. Great video and don’t overwork yourself. Your health is more important.
33:02 THAT WAS HOW I FELT TOO! “I- we” Yes, brother, we were lied to. Still, I can’t tell you how much I was GUSHING for you to make an anime wins on possibly one of the best and one of my most favorite newcomer animes ever! As soon as I finished it, I checked to see if you made a vid and you did! Stellar job as always and I’m excited to see what next year holds, my dude! 🎉🎉🎉
It's *because* people have such unrealistic high expectations that padded bras exist to begin with. And they're not exactly uncommon--almost every single picture you see in a magazine or movie has used one.
I love how you were able to point out how incredibly well done this anime was Mappa implemented techniques you rarely see in most anime and absolutely killed it there was so much passion poured into this adaptation
Galgali (the violence fiend) is my favorite character in CSM. He's actually one of the more complex characters, especialy for a fiend. He's easily the most humane devil and actually understands emotions and how feelings work because he took over a newley dead body that still had some brain fucntion, which gave him some of the hosts memories. Also he's nice to Kobeni so 10/10
Woooooow!! You already held the record for my highest ever tip and the following week you go and break your own record! : DDD Cannot thank you enough man and I just hope everything is going swimmingly in your life, your family, your friends and your work, I truly wish you a massively happy 2023 brother, thank you again! Calum.
this video makes my heart happy. thank u for doing this. also so cool to see you love csm as much as i do! i’ve watched a lot of anime movies recently, and i’ve noticed the quality on every episode is genuinely movie quality. the scenery shots are the best i’ve seen in an anime, literally have almost had a pic from every episode as a wallpaper at this point, and it was just such a phenomenal adaption from the manga. can’t wait to see the rest of this show get animated
You know what would have been hilarious, is if when makima was feeding denji, since he answered her by saying "woof" ( and since he's technically part devil dog now) , if he said "being nice to animals is always a win".
I don’t think it’s contradictory to enjoy the hell out of Iruma (no pun intended) because that’s pure enjoyment while also loving the dark comedic genius of chainsaw man. In the end both are filling different loves we can have of having fun and watching kickass things. Both different flavors of fun
Picked up the manga a month before the anime started ariring, and I'm now almost to the end of what's been released. It's an insane ride, and I'm so glad you got this video out so damn quick. Well done! THE FUTURE RULES
My anime buddy and I went into this series totally blind and didn't know at all what kind of a spectacular ride we were in for, cannot wait for season 2 and I'm constantly resisting the urge to read ahead (Only done that for Bocchi the Rock).
It took me over 3 days to get through this video, because I don't have the time to watch it all at once, and also my short attention span doesn't help. But clearly, this show has surpassed all expectations of both new viewers and manga readers alike. The show is less of an animation and more of a cinematic experience. I'm so glad the directors realised that adapting the work of someone like Fujimoto who takes full advantage of the pen and paper medium was impossible in a contrasting medium such as animation, and they put their own spin on it. Adding scenes like Aki's little morning routine to it, and the trio hanging out at the end, added so much life and personality to the whole thing. Not to mention the insane animation quality, amazing dynamic cinematic shots during the fight scenes, and the banger OST. This was probably the best anime adaptation of any manga ever. It managed to retain the essence of Chainsaw Man, while putting its own spin on it. Can't wait for season 2.
Loved this video. I've watched this season a couple times and read the manga multiple times, but you STILL managed to point things out that I didn't notice, and your analysis of the characters made me think a lot.
Smiling ear to ear bc I just wrapped up uni stuff and get to sit down and watch one of my favorite UA-camrs react to one of my favorite animangas. Good day!!
it's sad that the translation got wrong what the Future Devil told Aki because it really shifts the view of what that deal was: he told him that "he's futture is going to rock BECAUSE he's going to have the worst death possible". THAT is why he only wanted to be on his left eye. to get to see such a terrible future in first row.
my dude, what a delightful video, I keep thinking to myself whenever you comment on a first person or dynamic camera shot, this is a man who needs to watch Bocchi the rock
Great video, Thanks for putting your time into making it, I did want to point out that with Aki sitting down at the end of episode 12 is also a call back to I think it was episode 2 or 3? where you see him sitting down with the smokes, but anyway amazing video
Damn man, In the Back Room is by far my favorite ending, that shit lives in my brain since I heard it, hearing you didn't like it that much made me mad, I had to get over myself for a second xD. It's always so wild to hear which endings people love compaired to others. Their all so different and bring so much many styles to CSM that somehow all enraptured the energy of the show. We were truly blessed with this adaption.
IT IS DAY so I've now actually seen the video and man it's such a banger as always! Thanks again for your (super) hard work on these videos, and I hope you have a stellar end of the year!! Also, I kept wondering why I liked the music in this anime so much, and now you've helped me out of my conundrum by telling me it's the guy who made A Silent Voice's (Koe no Katachi's) OST too!! Makes sense now
This video can be summed up, appropriately enough, by a Chainsaw Man meme where Denji is crying with his forehead against the TV and saying "He's just like me, for real for real!"
I finally watched chainsaw so I could come watch your video. Glad this was an hour long. Love you man! It was an awesome anime too. 👍🙏 Keep up the great work man!
God MAPPA did not disappoint with this adaptation it’s absolutely phenomenal. The manga is arguably my favourite ever so I had high expectations for the anime but it’s done amazingly. Great video, hope analytics do you well don’t want to see you go. ALSO ALL HAIL THE BLOOD QUEEN POWER IS BEST GIRL!!!
This isn't my favorite anime of the year (that'd be Ya Boy Kongming) but it's easily the best made from a technical standpoint. Fantastic work as always, man. Also, since you mentioned it, do you have a link to your MAL page? I'd love to see it.
Would just like to say a more accurate translation of what the future devil said was that aki is going to die in the worst way possible and wants to witness it personally hence the only cost being living in his right eye and akis reaction it’s a small thing but it’s important for the future(THE FUTURE RULES)
This anime is somehow: Intense Mysterious Sad and depressing Holeful Inspiring Beautiful Glomy Confusing (but not to a point where you can't keep up) And just a straight vibe All in one. Big approved.
The Chainsaw Man ⛓️🪚♂️ soundtrack was perfect. Each song fit the fights, the world building, the deep stuff that Denji, Power and Aki go through. MAPPA Studios can pat their backs for a job well done like with Jujutsu Kaisen.
I always love these video you help me learn to live a anime I already loved in new ways and really appreciate the work put in for it thank you for everything!
This anime legitimately made me WTF at least once in every episode for entirely novel and interesting reasons each time (rather than trope-y anime nonsense). I was hoping for a Wins video on it from you! I love the optimism in your work!
Even with the cgi ( im not a huge fan of cgi) they blended everything almost prefect and the transitions from hand drawn to cgi are really impressive and i cant wait for more tbh, probably the first anime im actually check the manga out for
again an ansolut masterclass of a video. Hope you start well in the new year and I'm rly excited for what comes with it. Like always thanks for the constant great work and keep it up sir
god I loved this anime. For a series to become a favorite of mine, it'd usually have to be longer then this, but honestly, after just these 2 episodes, I can wholeheartedly call Chainsaw Man my new favorite anime of all time!
I love this video. I already read the manga and this is the perfect way for me to see how good they made the anime and they totally nailed it.(Sorry for bad English I am from Hungary)
Great to hear you praising the CGI, because for some reason a lot of people hate anime for that reason. Which is dumb because a lot of the time it's necessary when doing action scenes. Plus, I saw on Facebook some people were trying to get signatures to reboot the anime which just makes me laugh
![Everything GREAT About: Konosuba: Legend of Crimson [THE MOVIE]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/uDJM2xXlBoI/mqdefault.jpg)
It's never addressed in the show, but I really like that Pochita healed Denji's hereditary heart condition by becoming his heart.
I kinda figured this but yeah, would have been nice if it was included
Read the manga and didn't realise this
he also got his organs back, including his nut!
Don’t forget his testicle that he sold, his kidney, and his right eye!
@@reinertoast2195 he already regrew a whole bottom half so it doesn't matter now.
13:23 I’ve always loved the fact that Denji actually lifted Aki’s leg up so he could have a clearer shot at his nuts.
I never noticed his hand placed under his thigh to do that until you mentioned it 😭😭🙏🏾 thanks

I don’t know if I’m the only one who didn’t notice until going back and thinking about it but “easy revenge” is a callback to Aki putting the gum on the women’s back

"because the creator of"
isnt this just rumors though? not that he is a spiderman fan but that the trainfight is a reference

Fr i dont think id like this anime as much as I do if it didnt allow for those quiet moments to let me just connect with the characters
It reminds us that these are all people, not just knuckle-bashing unstoppable warriors.

I hate her sooo much, she is mostly everything i hate in a human being )))
Having each episode with a different ending by such talented people shows their great dedication!
I think in episode 8 you could have given an extra win for Aki just pulling out the katana without hesitation. Shows how serious things got so fast...
Denji and Power are the best kind of duo: The buddies who share one braincell. That moment they were plotting against that hunter was pretty much hilarious.
I loved the fact that they were both wearing glasses when they went to fight him the next day, as if that would somehow make those two morons smarter.
Denji just like Power do not have a chance for education like other people, so they are like little kids
one dude lived alone in slums with pet and her lived in forrest with also a pet
we do not even know did denji know what the school is
people call denji idiot with low IQ but he sometimes show how smart he is. maybe its no IQ but knowledge is what he do not have
when he meet makima he had lose too much of blood to use his brain, he even need time to realise that she said his name
he outplayed Aki for xxx magazines, trap for teacher was quite good and katana-man for hidden chainsaw in leg
One thing I greatly appreciate about MAPPA is they tend to pick newbies for lead roles and also like to work with new or anonymous musicians for their osts. So many vocaloid/former vocaloid creators were brought on board for the op and eds.

This anime has made me feel so many emotions in only 12 episodes. That’s an impressive feat and after I finished I couldn’t wait for you to win it!
Thats one of the many reasons its called "the almost perfect manga"
Like I always say: “you know something’s great when it manages to make you feel the full range of human emotion!”
No spoilers, but having read the manga second season is gonna be even better.

the video for season 2 would probably be twice as long lmao
Everything after Katana Man is just way better.
The manga made me feel things dude. I always thought it was odd that I never found books or other forms of written media to be as jarring as their animated or live action counterparts, but fuck me, the manga is literary gold. I think i got dehydrated with how many tears there were.

33:02 THAT WAS HOW I FELT TOO! “I- we” Yes, brother, we were lied to. Still, I can’t tell you how much I was GUSHING for you to make an anime wins on possibly one of the best and one of my most favorite newcomer animes ever! As soon as I finished it, I checked to see if you made a vid and you did! Stellar job as always and I’m excited to see what next year holds, my dude! 🎉🎉🎉
It's *because* people have such unrealistic high expectations that padded bras exist to begin with. And they're not exactly uncommon--almost every single picture you see in a magazine or movie has used one.
0:01 another amazing upload you say!?!?!? Absolutely here for this for the whole damn time! Thank you as always and hope all is well.
Thank you brother!
Amazing how fast you got this out!!
I seriously smile HUGE when I watch these videos with your commentary!
Holy crap, season 1 of Chainsaw Man was awesome!
I love how you were able to point out how incredibly well done this anime was Mappa implemented techniques you rarely see in most anime and absolutely killed it there was so much passion poured into this adaptation
Holy shit the fact that u got this out the week it finished?? Massive respect to you. Love the work :)
Galgali (the violence fiend) is my favorite character in CSM. He's actually one of the more complex characters, especialy for a fiend. He's easily the most humane devil and actually understands emotions and how feelings work because he took over a newley dead body that still had some brain fucntion, which gave him some of the hosts memories. Also he's nice to Kobeni so 10/10
I don't care if it's CG, Rotoscoping, or Mocap, if it looks good. It fucking, LOOKS, GOOD
I like the self commentary. You're a quirky character and the daft things you put in your videos give me a smile, or a laugh.
Thank you
Getting my bonus soon, thought you deserved a little bonus yourself at the end of the year.
Woooooow!! You already held the record for my highest ever tip and the following week you go and break your own record! : DDD Cannot thank you enough man and I just hope everything is going swimmingly in your life, your family, your friends and your work, I truly wish you a massively happy 2023 brother, thank you again! Calum.
this video makes my heart happy. thank u for doing this. also so cool to see you love csm as much as i do! i’ve watched a lot of anime movies recently, and i’ve noticed the quality on every episode is genuinely movie quality. the scenery shots are the best i’ve seen in an anime, literally have almost had a pic from every episode as a wallpaper at this point, and it was just such a phenomenal adaption from the manga. can’t wait to see the rest of this show get animated
You know what would have been hilarious, is if when makima was feeding denji, since he answered her by saying "woof" ( and since he's technically part devil dog now) , if he said "being nice to animals is always a win".
Considering how Makima is...
no.
I don’t think it’s contradictory to enjoy the hell out of Iruma (no pun intended) because that’s pure enjoyment while also loving the dark comedic genius of chainsaw man. In the end both are filling different loves we can have of having fun and watching kickass things. Both different flavors of fun
Picked up the manga a month before the anime started ariring, and I'm now almost to the end of what's been released. It's an insane ride, and I'm so glad you got this video out so damn quick. Well done!
THE FUTURE RULES
The mangas almost done?
@@thehunter_3414 not to my knowledge, no. I'm just all caught up on the manga so far released.
@jasonmiller6181 I misread looking back lol,
I was confused
@@thehunter_3414 all good lol
My anime buddy and I went into this series totally blind and didn't know at all what kind of a spectacular ride we were in for, cannot wait for season 2 and I'm constantly resisting the urge to read ahead (Only done that for Bocchi the Rock).
This deserves much more views
Thank you for the video, chainsawman is a work of art, I think this is your longest to date. It felt like watching a full lenght movie :D
Hey man we appreciate you making content for us!! Please keep up the good work!
Thank you for all the hard work. It’s so much fun to watch your stuff. Like watching along with a good friend.
Fun fact:the ED9, by Aimer - Deep Down, was animated by a single artist! All. Of it!!! By one man!!! To me, it is the best song of this entire season.
It took me over 3 days to get through this video, because I don't have the time to watch it all at once, and also my short attention span doesn't help.
But clearly, this show has surpassed all expectations of both new viewers and manga readers alike. The show is less of an animation and more of a cinematic experience. I'm so glad the directors realised that adapting the work of someone like Fujimoto who takes full advantage of the pen and paper medium was impossible in a contrasting medium such as animation, and they put their own spin on it.
Adding scenes like Aki's little morning routine to it, and the trio hanging out at the end, added so much life and personality to the whole thing.
Not to mention the insane animation quality, amazing dynamic cinematic shots during the fight scenes, and the banger OST.
This was probably the best anime adaptation of any manga ever. It managed to retain the essence of Chainsaw Man, while putting its own spin on it. Can't wait for season 2.
Loved this video. I've watched this season a couple times and read the manga multiple times, but you STILL managed to point things out that I didn't notice, and your analysis of the characters made me think a lot.
33333l33333333l33 I 3333hours know 333hours 33333hours and the 3hours 3333hours 3quest 3in 3
Great Video. I am feeling happy you liked it and find so much deatails while looking it. Peak Anime Craftsmanship and Top Writing.
As always, this video was amazing! It’s awesome to hear about someone else’s perspective, as well as point out so many positive things :D
Smiling ear to ear bc I just wrapped up uni stuff and get to sit down and watch one of my favorite UA-camrs react to one of my favorite animangas. Good day!!
Just finished the season. Watching this now dropped at the perfect time
the idea of denji having head handles and therefore the possibility of makima actually "manhandling" him is so fucking funny to me
Awesome job as always dude! Thanks for all your hard work!
Fun fact: Power's personality is partly based on Eric Cartman from South Park.
it's sad that the translation got wrong what the Future Devil told Aki because it really shifts the view of what that deal was: he told him that "he's futture is going to rock BECAUSE he's going to have the worst death possible". THAT is why he only wanted to be on his left eye. to get to see such a terrible future in first row.
So what the future devil actually said to Aki is "You're going to die in the worst way possible".
Definitely a worthwhile watch. You're nailing it on every hit and impactful moment is a win.
my dude, what a delightful video, I keep thinking to myself whenever you comment on a first person or dynamic camera shot, this is a man who needs to watch Bocchi the rock
Great video, Thanks for putting your time into making it, I did want to point out that with Aki sitting down at the end of episode 12 is also a call back to I think it was episode 2 or 3? where you see him sitting down with the smokes, but anyway amazing video
Damn man, In the Back Room is by far my favorite ending, that shit lives in my brain since I heard it, hearing you didn't like it that much made me mad, I had to get over myself for a second xD. It's always so wild to hear which endings people love compaired to others. Their all so different and bring so much many styles to CSM that somehow all enraptured the energy of the show. We were truly blessed with this adaption.
Why don’t you have at least half a million subscribers?! Your videos are always so good!
39:00 I just realised why it was the 8th floor. 8, ∞. Might be obvious, but still!
IT IS DAY so I've now actually seen the video and man it's such a banger as always! Thanks again for your (super) hard work on these videos, and I hope you have a stellar end of the year!!
Also, I kept wondering why I liked the music in this anime so much, and now you've helped me out of my conundrum by telling me it's the guy who made A Silent Voice's (Koe no Katachi's) OST too!! Makes sense now
This video can be summed up, appropriately enough, by a Chainsaw Man meme where Denji is crying with his forehead against the TV and saying "He's just like me, for real for real!"
I finally watched chainsaw so I could come watch your video. Glad this was an hour long. Love you man! It was an awesome anime too. 👍🙏
Keep up the great work man!
great video! It makes me happy seeing other people enjoy chainsaw man. I know I did! So thanks for giving this anime the appreciation it deserves :)
God MAPPA did not disappoint with this adaptation it’s absolutely phenomenal. The manga is arguably my favourite ever so I had high expectations for the anime but it’s done amazingly. Great video, hope analytics do you well don’t want to see you go. ALSO ALL HAIL THE BLOOD QUEEN POWER IS BEST GIRL!!!
POWER! POWER! POWER!
FUCK MAKIMA! ALL MY HOMIES HATE MAKIMA!
@@TheActualMrLink Based 🗿
Watashi wa POWER!!!!!
There actually was a mistranslation on ep 11 with the future devil,he says aki "will die in the worst possible way"
1:28:32 and almost done! Another amazing video! Thank you for all the hard work.
This isn't my favorite anime of the year (that'd be Ya Boy Kongming) but it's easily the best made from a technical standpoint. Fantastic work as always, man.
Also, since you mentioned it, do you have a link to your MAL page? I'd love to see it.
Description brother
Ya Boi Kongming was a banger for sure! There were such good shows to enjoy this year
@@AnimeWins Appreciated.
Damn I didn't know that about the VA! That makes me appreciate him even more, also great video!
Would just like to say a more accurate translation of what the future devil said was that aki is going to die in the worst way possible and wants to witness it personally hence the only cost being living in his right eye and akis reaction it’s a small thing but it’s important for the future(THE FUTURE RULES)
This anime is somehow:
Intense
Mysterious
Sad and depressing
Holeful
Inspiring
Beautiful
Glomy
Confusing (but not to a point where you can't keep up)
And just a straight vibe
All in one. Big approved.
The Chainsaw Man ⛓️🪚♂️ soundtrack was perfect. Each song fit the fights, the world building, the deep stuff that Denji, Power and Aki go through. MAPPA Studios can pat their backs for a job well done like with Jujutsu Kaisen.
I hope the MAPPA animators get a good night's sleep.
This was well done :) Thank you
I always love these video you help me learn to live a anime I already loved in new ways and really appreciate the work put in for it thank you for everything!
This anime legitimately made me WTF at least once in every episode for entirely novel and interesting reasons each time (rather than trope-y anime nonsense). I was hoping for a Wins video on it from you! I love the optimism in your work!
Even with the cgi ( im not a huge fan of cgi) they blended everything almost prefect and the transitions from hand drawn to cgi are really impressive and i cant wait for more tbh, probably the first anime im actually check the manga out for
again an ansolut masterclass of a video. Hope you start well in the new year and I'm rly excited for what comes with it. Like always thanks for the constant great work and keep it up sir
I appreciate that the length of the video is 1/4 that of the shows entire runtime. Theres alot of good shit to cover
Man, I was looking forward to hearing from you about this anime. I'm gonna enjoy this one!
god I loved this anime. For a series to become a favorite of mine, it'd usually have to be longer then this, but honestly, after just these 2 episodes, I can wholeheartedly call Chainsaw Man my new favorite anime of all time!
I'm amazed at how fast you get these out, great work!
Awesome video and awesome editing 👌 thanks for all your hard work
Love this style of video, nice work
Ah man, Makima can be REAL scary in some moments. I'd expect it will only continue next season.
Should I tell him😅
Amazing video, glad you loved one of my favourite animes and looking forward to your coverage of season 2 😁
I love this video. I already read the manga and this is the perfect way for me to see how good they made the anime and they totally nailed it.(Sorry for bad English I am from Hungary)
the part where the Future Devil said his death will "rule" was falsly translated by Crunchyrolle. it was meant to say "your death will be the worst"
Great to hear you praising the CGI, because for some reason a lot of people hate anime for that reason.
Which is dumb because a lot of the time it's necessary when doing action scenes.
Plus, I saw on Facebook some people were trying to get signatures to reboot the anime which just makes me laugh
I love watching ari’s scenes with the violence fiend theory in mind
