Chainsaw Man

The first episode of Chainsaw Man was an excellent pilot for the introduction of this long-awaited series, MAPPA did an excellent job (as always) and I am eager to see where the story will lead. Very good storytelling, character design and voice acting, and impeccably handled animation. World and characters equally interesting. At the moment it still feels quite derivative, but certainly as the story develops the anime will have the possibility of portraying its real strength and uniqueness. In any case, a really intriguing start for an anime already destined to become a new classic in the next few years.

After such a long wait and so much hype, it finally hit the screen and man it delivered so hard.

Of course the first episode was far from perfect. It definitely had some flaws from the point of view of storytelling and character building. But, did it entertain? Hell Yeah!

The action was great, the character design was great, the voice actors were awesome, and the animation, breathtaking. MAPPA is on steroids. Though some improvements can be made to the CG work on part of the main character. You'll understand what I mean when you watch it. Besides that, the direction was great. If some note is to be taken from the trailers, then there it a lot to be hyped for in the upcoming episodes.

Chainsaw is one of my all time favorite mangas and seeing it get a anime made me feel free. The way they composed the episode like a movie is nothing ever done before in anime history. It was daring and it payed off. I've seen some complaints about the cgi and I would agree that in some scenes it did look off. Especially the scenes when he stands still in devil form. Other than that the cgi is the best anime cgi I have ever seen, it made the character feel real and life like. I also love the dark atmosphere the episode brought out and THE GORE there's not many anime where you can see gore in such high quality and detail. I can't wait for more chainsaw and I'm hoping it succeeds in the future.

This was really good ep, it had amazing animation and amazing storytelling. The voice acting was so good, I have been waiting for so long for this to come out as an anime so when it did, I wasn't disappointed, i was super impressed and so happy that chainsaw man is finally here. If chainsaw man keeps this up it can may be the number one show this year, but there is a lot of competition. Although this episode was amazing it wasn't perfect at any means, the cg wasn't that impressive and I thought they used way to much of CGI and I'm not that big fan of the 3d.im not saying that that it is bad but I'm saying that I was expecting better in the cg, and another think is sometimes in the anime the quality wasn't all that god it was like it was 720 but i had it in 1080 that was strange, I also wished the background was bitterer and cleaner and have better lighting I found that in some shots the lighting was a bit bland but over all I would give the first ep 8,4.

Anyone giving this less than 8-9 stars is unhinged. It's perfection. The animation is top notch. The story is top notch. The voice acting is top notch. I don't think that they could've done anything better. There isn't anything novel left in the world, so of course it's going to be a bit derivative, but this show has taken all the aspects I like of other animes and combined them beautifully. I am looking forward to future episodes. I really enjoyed overlord and berserk, they were my favorite shows up until this point. I am almost certain that this show will become my new favorite. I will update my review if this changes.
