Thoughts after watching Chainsaw Man

Hey guys! The new season has been leaning on the more gorey side so I thought I'd jump into it too. Today I've watched CSM and I just wanna share my thoughts on it all.<br><br>I'm not sure what I expected but it surely wasn't this. I'm not a fan of gore nor anything overly graphic, but this show is more than that. There's a lot of character development which I appreciated. I went into the show blind, knowing nothing about the plot. I knew how the chainsaw devil looked like from the trailer, but that was all.<br><br>I'm a sucker for a well made storyline and the main character isn't just your everyday hero. He's just a regular human being acting how humans should. But I find this show is one of those "nothing good happens" which is the same type as Battle Royale or something, where everything that can go wrong goes wrong. I'm sure if you've watched it you'll know what I mean.<br><br>I'm not sure what to think about the ending. I know he's the main character and they won't just kill him off, but the final scene was so eerie! I just wonder where they'll go from here. I'm a bit too lazy to read the manga so maybe I'll just wait for S2 lol<br><br>I like shows that make me think and CSM was definitely something. I think Denji is one of the most relatable characters I've seen. He really just wants everything a person wants; a home, food and a family. I can't say I blame him wanting to live out his childhood dream as an adult. I'm sure we all wanted to be firefighters or astronauts and stuff when we're little. I myself wanted to be an astronaut but it wasn't meant to be. I'm an artist now and I find a lot of fulfillment in it so I guess my dream came true in a way. But Denji's whole situation is just depressing. He's got no one, no friends, no food and no family. All he's got is his faithful chainsaw devil Pochita.<br><br>I loved the dynamic between Denji and Makima though. She takes care of him, giving him 3 meals a day and a warm bed to sleep in. It's so different from what he's used to and it's just so wholesome to me. But I feel like maybe she just does that to keep him obedient. Maybe I'm just overthinking it though.<br><br>I felt bad for the other devils too; they're just... humans. But I guess humans can be devils too. I never really understood the concept of the devils and maybe it's just me but it threw me off a bit. Maybe I missed something.<br><br>Finally I just want to say; never trust a woman!
