Welp, I was expecting a different type of date. She's quite a movie fanatic though!

This was a nice slowing down of the pace. Honestly, I thought Makima was checking out his reaction to these movies to measure whether he's still human. But it seems like that wasn't really the case.

I love that Fujimoto likes movies and includes movie scenes in his works! Agreed that this chapter was really cute, but at the same time it's making me suspicious of Makima. Does she really like Denji or is she just using him?

I really enjoyed this chapter! All that things whit Denji's sentiments and if he does or not have a heart really intrigue me. I hope it will get developed a lot in the future. Could his nightmare and the thing he is not supposed to open that he see in it have a link whit that or something ?

Also I hope Power will come back soon!

I loved this chapter. I thought it highlighted the fact that true, sincere compassion is what gets an emotional response out of Denji (and Makima). Not some contrived, fake moments that Hollywood tends to put out. The last movie's scene was simple but powerful. This chapter itself was a mirror of that last movie too. Fujimoto nailed it.

I'm sorry but I can't help being constantly on edge whenever Makima appears. She looks very suspicious.

I want to like Makima and Denji, I feel like if it's genuine it could be good for him but MY MIND IS TELLING ME NAH BITCH NO.

Liked that the date was different and a through line for their characters.

Still curious on Power's apprehension of Makima, she looks freaked out anytime she has to be alone with her.

She could get him to do absolutely anything for her short of killing himself. That's a crazy power to have over a person.

Interesting chapter, not really sure what to make of it. I did initially think she was testing Denji's human heart so to speak, but that might not have been the case after all. The ending scene with Makima landing her ear on Denji's chest to her his heart was pretty sweet as well, a cute end to their date.

This is end of the Katana Man arc according to the wiki, which is easily the strongest arc of the series thus far.

I thought them not feeling any emotion was supposed to show us their lack of human heart but then they both cried. I wonder what it means tho.

So Power gets stronger the more blood she drinks and they purposely drain her blood to keep her to a "manageable" level. I hope we can find out just how much stronger can she get in the future!

I'm not sure if Makima meant to study Denji's reactions showing him all those films or if she's just weird. They sure seem to have much more in common that what it would appear!

I really want to find out more about Makima! She's such an intriguing character!

It's because Fujimoto is a huge cinephile. You'll notice that in his works

Makima with her casual civilian attire and with her hair down is something I'll engrain into the backs of my eyes. She's cute, Denji deserved to have this date with Makima. It might not be romantic, but sheesh, anything to spend more time with her right?

Both Makima and Denji share a rather peculiar similarities in that they're not so easily moved or react in ways normal people would when witnessing any particular thing in movies and perhaps in real life. However they coincidentally also share that soft spot for a strange scene which brought them to tears. I might be speaking bullshit, but I think both Denji and Makima lost their original hearts at some point with it being replaced by some other entity. Though that doesn't really explain why they were brought to tears after watching that 1 scene. Something to do with inherited genetic memories perhaps?

I don't understand why Makima is teasing him like that. Sometimes she is like, "We are going to be working 'till you die" and some other time she's like "Let's go on a date". What the hell, am I too dumb that I'm not understanding something or what?

Power le tiene pánico a Makima. Me pregunto si Power siente dolor cuando le drenan la sangre. Makima se ve bonita con el pelo suelto y en ropa de civil. A pesar de que paso un buen día con Denji, no me convence que ella sea buena persona.

Not quite sure what her intentions were. At this point we know she doesn't go out of her way to interact with denji without some kind of objective. I honestly am embarrassed I didn't consider he was being analysed. Good way to show that they might both be the same thing, though. Fuji bangs that part in with a framing hammer. And the heart listen was good. Love her cute/sexy power plays with poor simple denji's heart.

Es un momento algo extraño, supongo que porque no empiezas a ver lo que en verdad esta pasando, mas que nada esto es el preludio antes del caos total.

It's a somewhat strange moment, I suppose because you don't begin to see what is really happening, more than anything this is the prelude before total chaos.

Wow that was actually a REALLY good chapter. You'd never see shit like this in any other shounen. I love that Fujimoto is letting the characters actually interact and progress naturally rather than jumping from one battle to another like other shounen do. Good stuuf.

Makima is so cute!!! 5/5 chapter
