Chainsaw Man

Denji has a simple dream—to live a happy and peaceful life, spending time with a girl he likes. This is a far cry from reality, however, as Denji is forced by the yakuza into killing devils in order to pay off his crushing debts. Using his pet devil Pochita as a weapon, he is ready to do anything for a bit of cash.

It’s one of my favourite mangas. So I was pretty hyped to watch this. In my opinion the story started shining in the reze arc and then it’s nothing but peak in the arcs after. However Season 1 just covered the section before that, which don’t get me wrong, was good but not peak chainsaw man yet. The anime did have this quirky thing of having a unique ending song each episode, with some insane bands, so god knows how much money they threw into this show. But it not enough to justify a higher score than just good. When following arcs come that’s when I’ll rate it higher. Watching this is basically the same as investing in bitcoin back in 2011, trust me the show gets so much better in the arcs to follow.
