Chainsaw Man #1

Chainsaw Man Volume 1sets a wonderful foundation in just seven chapters. Fujimoto is able to drop readers into a new world, establish how it works, and knock an emotional moment out of the park. With 86 chapters currently available on VIZ Media's Shonen Jump app, you're going to have to yourself from diving directly into the next chapters of Denji's story. Read Full Review

Chainsaw Man is a wild and action-packed manga that will excite readers at every turn. Denjis outlandish behavior and values makes him a unique protagonist, crafting a narrative that feels unpredictable yet incredibly fun. This is one manga that will be hard to put down. Read Full Review

Chainsaw Man Vol. 1 is a brutal, gory, crass, but surprisingly thoughtful and human beginning. Worth a look, though maybe pick up the second volume alongside it. Read Full Review

Chainsaw Man introduces us to a world of monsters, forcing its main character to become one in order to live there. It has a tremendous amount of potential if it can avoid the groan-worthy juvenile humor it seems to divert so much attention to. Read Full Review

Chainsaw Man has some things going for it and hopefully may well build up from a promising start. Read Full Review

Chainsaw Man   Writer/Artist: Tatsuki Fujimoto  Publisher: Viz Media @vizmedia   In a world where Devils are real, a young man Denji works to pay off his late father's debt to the yakuza with his chainsaw devil pet Pochita. Doing odd jobs, hunting other devils, and selling his organs, Denji does anything he could to make money and to live his dream of a simple life. After the yakuza betrays them one night and leaving both for dead, Denji forms a contract with Pochita to show him what it’s like to have a normal. Waking up Denji finds a pull tab coming from his chest and when tug chainsaws emerge from his body. Taking his revenge against the yakuza, the Public Safety Devil Hunters shows recruiting him to join and thus starting his new line of work.   Chainsaw Man is better than what I expected with most Shonen Jump manga you get clean artwork, over-the-top fights, and a hint humor, it’s a formula that works to keep us entertained. Chainsaw Man is exactly that but what makes this series stand out is Denji. Shonen characters usually have an ambitious personality with a big dream, but Denji wants for the simple things makes you sympathize with him more. The character designs are basic but Fujimoto’s art is more prominent in his Devils that have a distinctive style alongside very bloody yet hilarious fights. This series is entertaining and I look forward too the anime release later this year.
