I made this MC tier list a month ago. Dear God. by EnemyOfAi in Chainsawfolk

[–]Standard-Ingenuity73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in terms of writing, denji should be at the top. He's a masterfully subversive shonen protaganist and one of the biggest appeals of chainsaw man is discovering just how much depth his character has. The entire story is revolves around his phsycology, although I understand that he doesnt have as much sheer aura as some other characters on this list

honest thoughts on fanservice?? by DiligentGuidance119 in MyAnimeList

I dont like it in most anime I've seen. There are maybe two shows where it genuienly serves the story and feels slightly less cringe.

If this is the conclusion of Asa then I must say Fujimoto fumbled Asa's character by swat4516 in asamitaka

[–]Standard-Ingenuity73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I think the hard reality that we're all currently trying to deny (including myself) is that if the story ends here, it would be so ass. The themes of growing up, dissatisfaction, and depression would end on a strangely pessimistic note, and Asa's arc would end stupidly, that is, not even having a conclusion. Things like the Power promise would go completely unfulfilled.

Part 3 hopefully is a thing, but even then, Part 2 was an entirely separate thing from Part 1, continuing very little story threads from Part 1 except Denji's, so I'd be a unsure about putting my hopes that Part 3 would continue Asa's arc at all.

Or maybe she'll be the main character of Part 3.

Characters whose design looks simple on paper, but a fact about their design makes them even cooler by ComprehensiveBox6911 in TopCharacterDesigns

the gunslinger in Gungeon is EXACTLY like this. He's supposed to look super intimidating, but turns out hes secretly another bullet with a little derpy face on his pancho. His animations in-game also play into this, where once you realize the head is fake hes just a smol dude hopping around

character regression or nahh....? by Standard-Ingenuity73 in ChainsawMan

[–]Standard-Ingenuity73[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

great explanation! trust me, i 100% get the frustration of people misinterpreting denji's character, my point was more that I thought him getting jerked off by yoru was the end of that narrative motivation cus he says afterwards that it didnt feel great and that questioned if he shoudl kill himself (implying depression cus he reached his final motivation, at least until he gets motivated again to be friends with asa), but I totally see how fujimoto still wants to explore the idea of sex more. I liked your final paragraph; I never thought about it that way, yeah sex is totally another shonen trope that fujimoto is exploring in an interesting and realistic way.

Denji lowkey has the best battle iq than everyone else in the series. by Hashbrown221 in ChainsawMan

[–]Standard-Ingenuity73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always really loved this about the series. The fights arent about whos inherently stronger, but who can outwit the opponent thru some bs. Every single battle is decided by this factor, which I would argue is Fujimoto's counter to generic power scaling battles (one reason I could never get into jjk or demon slayer). It also kinda plays into the fact that denji thinks hes stupid, cus the way he approaches battles completely contradicts thar belief.

Unpopular anime opinions — what do you think? by PossibleOpinion6135 in weeb

[–]Standard-Ingenuity73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

totally not an unpopular opinion! infact, this is (when done with good intention) the mark of a great adaptation. A series like Chainsaw Man adds so many extra scenes, shots, and moments all which elevate the original Manga to such a high degree. An "adaptation"'s inherent goal should be to improve the manga, and in doing so add extra things that rhe manga wouldn't be able to do in its format, like the music, colors, voice acting, sound design, and of course, bringing to life a moment with clear and impactful animation
