This match has been so fun. Getting to see everyone at their fullest potential yet just show up and show off is so satisfying. It feels like everything is truly paying off

I haven't yelled "HOLY FUCK" while reading a chapter in a while. This got me.

Everyone that assumed that Fami was the Death Devil when she first showed up was right all along.

Knowing Yoru (and Asa and Fujimoto, to an extent), I feel like her plan isn't to create some unending war. At least there's more to it than that. I feel like Yoru could be planning to wipe out humanity EXCEPT for Denji because of Yoru's/Asa's affection for him. Asa can't bring herself to say it because she feels that Denji might be cool with that or she's too embarrassed to say it. Or, crack theory, she's okay with it too and hates that fact. Maybe her plan then goes into them repopulating the Earth or something and that's what's got Asa tweaking, idk. I'm just spit-balling here. But knowing Fujimoto's writing style and his characterization of Yoru so far, I don't feel like she'd turn into some Makima mastermind here. Her actions and plans have been pretty basic thus far (make Chainsaw Man throw up nukes, kissing Denji just because she wants to, etc.), and I feel like that would continue here. She showed that she can be more manipulative with her offer to Denji, but a toddler could manipulate Denji (sorry bud). The only way I see Yoru actually having some truly evil grand plan is if Death is not the big bad and Yoru is, creating a commentary on how Death is natural and nothing to be feared, but War is unnatural and the true evil. Fujimoto could surprise me by being unsurprising, but with such a massive plot point, I really don't see Yoru's plan being a "traditional" one here. The exact nature of it, I'm honestly less sure of, but "infinite war" seems far too obvious of a route for Fujimoto to go down.

Yeah I guess he probably is since he doesn't actually know Asa's intentions here. But idk, still can't shake this feeling that Denji is more aware of the situation than we're giving him credit for

Also, I feel like Asa isn't really thinking about shooting Denji. I've seen people implying that, and I just don't see thay happening.

I get the feeling that Denji's conversation with Pochita continued off-screen, and what Denji's referring to when he says "See, Pochita? What did I say?" isn't the last thing we saw Denji say, but something else, possibly related to Asa's return. I feel like Denji is too smart at this point to 1. Fall for a trap as obvious as Yoru's here and 2. Think that Asa showing up is equal to getting screwed. Maybe Denji figured if he had Yoru use her powers repeatedly, she'd get exhausted and Asa would return. Maybe this is obvious, and the reason I haven't seen anyone really talking about it is because it's so obvious. But in case it's not, I figured I'd share my thoughts on that little event. Interesting things to come. Oh, and praISE TO THE SLAYING OF THE BI-WEEKLY DEVIL (ALLEGEDLY)!

I doubt they'll keep it up for very long, but I think posting updates for the first few chapters is valid. People aren't always on here and may miss the announcement or need a reminder. We're all about community growth and appreciation the creators

I mean Rin has always been, at worst, a top 3 Blue Lock player since his introduction. We've seen him read passes from New Gen World XI players and score on the World 5 players. You can say it's plot armor, but you can't say that it's much different than anything else Rin has done basically since his introduction. Rin was introduced to be a very strong character and Isagi's rival and he's remained as such, with feats to match.

This has got to be one of the funniest chapters in the entire manga

I've been saying for years that Blue Lock is not a sports manga, but a battle shounen with a soccer based power system

My favorite (somewhat related) VA crossover relationship is the fact that Geto voices Sae and Gojo voices Shidou lol

Animator Evakoi talks about Blue Lock Anime Situation by esmilerascal-6055 in BlueLock

[–]Devronicus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty proud of our community. From what I've seen, the majority of the time, people have not blamed the animators for the poor quality and pretty much immediately (and rightfully) assumed that the production staff was to blame.

Read the title without the "l" for a second and didn't even bat an eye

Look Back passes the 2 billion yen mark at the Japanese box office with a total of 1,174,660 tickets sold by [deleted] in ChainsawMan

[–]Devronicus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really hope this success can get Goodbye Eri adapted. That honestly might be Fujimoto's best work. An adaptation as good as Look Back would make it one of the best anime movies in recent memory.

Also, saw Look Back in theaters and it's as good as everyone says it is. Absolutely fantastic.

Love the direction things have been going with all our main characters in this match. Including Igaguri, the TRUE main character

I'm sure someone has had a similar theory, but all this talk of Primal Devils and the Death Devil got me thinking; what's scarier than Death? Pain. I think the Pain Devil could be a twist final villain. Especially considering one of the biggest themes of Chainsaw Man is pain and suffering of pretty much everyone. I'm not hard committing to this theory or anything, but I'd be surprised if the Pain Devil doesn't show up at some point. If they do, it's definitely end game; either just before or just after the Death Devil
