Oh if chainsaw man is that short maybe I will check it out eventually

Not like it won't get animated!

---

u rite

---

Who do we wanna see on Chainsaw Man?

I feel like production wise that show could go in a lot of different directions. My PREDICTION is Mappa.

---

One of the ones that did a really good job.

Probably more than anything this needs a real fan at the directorial helm who "gets" the style. Who did Mob?

---

Tachikawa at Bones. Could definitely see it.

---

I've watched that Vlad Love OP like 6 times now.

---

Chainsaw Man anime huh

sounds like a perfect job for Toei or Studio Clown

---

Studio Clown actually has a banger of a production this season in Akudama Drive. I'm legit shocked Pierrot is capable of such a production.

One time fluke maybe, lol.

---

Episode 10 of Dragon Quest Dai

I see where MHA stole an idea for one of its characters

---

Looks like the final volume release of Demon Slayer added a bunch to the epilogue.

---

AoT episodes upload to CR at 3:45 pm

so while I'm asleep v_v

---

good

---

I'll get a cool OP to watch more than likely at least.

Maybe one day I'll try and go back to Titan.

It feels like you've done that with a few series where you like the anime way more than the manga...
---

Once I finish my read of YGO I'm gonna try to get through AoT before it ends!! at least the anime anyway

This wasn't really the case with the first few seasons of Titan compared to the manga, but the anime was definitely starting to move around and change things from the manga that I hated when I stopped watching, so maybe it did manage to turn trash into gold.

Chainsaw 96

Anime only watchers: wtf is this?

Manga reader: ah yes, the perfect representation of the final season

---

That OP seems rad in a vacuum, but the folks just wanting another Guren no Yumia won't be pleased, lol.

And to be fair, the other time they did wierd OP it was terrible.

---

War

War never changes

Chainsaw 96

I'm still laughing but it did convince me this is the end. That's the kind of chapter that ends a series. But technically one more and I have no idea what it's gonna be about!


---

Yeah, definitely shut up everyone including me who wasn't sure how 2 more chapters could be enough.

Me and my roomate were actually theorizing a Makima wins bad end after the news broke.

---

"Fun" Fact: Chainsaw Man's entire run was completed from start to finish since the last HxH chapter.


---

And I think within the entirety of the Wano arc.


---

Does the Shounen Jump app have an option that lets you swipe left instead of right to advance pages?
---

I only use the desktop reader but there's no flip option there.

---

SJ wants you to read right to left

---

Reading right to left is fine, I'm just not a fan of swiping that way to advance pages!

My PREDICTION is Mappa.

On point.

---

Other rumor is that this will be the end of "Part 1" of the manga and it's moving to another magazine. So looks like everything may be coming up aces for CSM.

I imagine it was pushing the envelope too far for them to keep it in Jump proper anymore.

---

Gotta see what the "final" chapter is like first but now I'm wondering what a sequel could even be about.

I mean, I know there's some open ended plots and lore, but the author doesn't seem like the type to really wring that out for a story. Thinking that whatever the continuation is might be very short for now.

---

This is based on early scan leaks, so take it worth a grain of salt for now (I won't get into the spoiler stuff), but they seem to be referring to this first 97 chapters as the "Public Safety Arc". I would assume the would mean some kind of hard shift away.

---

Makima was the head of public safety right? Makes sense

---

Can I just say, until now it has really not settled in that Power and the everyone else are just straight up dead. I am so used to Shounen having the asspull ressurections and such that I was just like "can't wait for Power to come back" , but like...naw! I mean if it's continuing you never know, but doesn't seem like that will be the case!

THANKFULLY, Kobeni will NEVER DIE.

---

It's more impressive when the series doesn't end, looking at you Kimetsu! Power can come back tho


---

Beastars 2 officially sentenced to 6 months of Netflix jail.

---

eeeeeeyup

Fan translations ahoy

---

Netflix jail is fine says this guy who barely watches anime still

Crunchyroll went from used to having a partnership with Funimation to now being straight up acquired by them.

---

I mean it's technically Sony, who owns FUNi, buying Crunchy and merging them.

So it's less FUNi buying Crunchy and more the two of them being squished together by higher powers.

It doesn't bother me unless we're suddenly forced to use FUNi's completely worthless app/site.

Whether that tweet ends up being fake or not I did catch up on the manga again



Why do all Keith's in Japanese fiction wear shades

---

elementary-aged school children in Japan admire Demon Slayer hero Tanjir more than their own parents, according to a survey conducted by education and publishing company Benesse.

The survey asked 7,661 third to sixth grade kids (5,170 girls and 2,491 boys) enrolled in the company's Shinkenzemi Elementary School Course to the things they liked best year, including their most admired people. Approximately 30% of students chose Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba as their favorite thing from 2020. It stands to reason that Tanjir would also rank highly, beating out moms with 618 votes. Moms were able to rally enough love to get second place, just ahead of another Demon Slayer character, Shinobu Kocho.

Dad's get the short end of the stick at #5, one rank below the children's' teachers and above Giy Tomioka, also of Demon Slayer. In fact, the rest of the top 10 are Demon Slayer characters.

Tanjir Kamado
My Mom
Shinobu Kocho
My Teacher
My Dad
Giy Tomioka
Nezuko Kamado
Kyjuro Rengoku
Zenitsu Agatsuma
Muichiro Tokito

Jesus christ to anyone who looks up to and admires Zenitsu

Bleach filler free watchthrough update finished skipping ahead from 167 to 190 no Captain Amagai arc for me
