Didn't he praise CSM after each episode back when it was airing? Why do people hate CSM so much? It's not like he is disappointed with CSM or anything...

It's not just Japan that shits on CSM adaptation, let's be honest. Just that Japan is the main audience and all they care about is some trashy generic isekais or something, idk.
I'm kinda tired to see people mostly shit on CSM whenever it gets mentioned somewhere. The only thing it was lacking to me is that it was too damn short since things just started to get really good.

@GTRaijin im a manga reader too and no hate but i find the comedy of the manga nonexistent in the anime version so thats my nitpick but aside from that the animation quality is great and the action amazing

Fujimoto praised CSM anime when it came out now he is praising Look back. Glad both of his manga got S-tier adaptation. Excited for both Look back and Chainsaw man movie.

This ain't criticism. This is trying to create a conflict where there's nothing to argue about.

Fujimoto DID praise CSM.
Saying that he praised "more" one adaptation and "less" another one is dumb. And bait to create conflict.

@deg
I believe in the necessity and importance of debate.

But I don't believe this kind of post can generate a constructive debate.
What kind of debate did you exactly want to generate?

This post's subtext is basically:
"Hey y'all CSM fans, Fujimoto says that he liked the Look Back adaptation more"
(no he didn't even say that looool)

If you just wanted to praise Look Back you should have written in the Look Back discussions.
Writing it in CSM discussions seems like you want to generate conflict.

the style is too clean and the pacing is completely wrong imho
when they announced CSM anime I was expecting something frenetic like the manga but they slowed it down

even though you tell your intentions are not to create a conflict, your title is too provocative. So its not surprising that people are not picking up the "Banter" tone from your post.


Besides, your title reads as "Fujimoto did not praise CSM adaptation but did for look back adaptation" and then you changed your narrative to "Fujimoto praised Lookback more than CSM" which might imply that you are trying to prove some point??¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thats the vibe I got off this discussion thread.

Tf you mean style is too clean? Since when is that a bad thing? Also with pacing, the hell you want them to do? Rush the shit out of it in 12 episodes? Remember God of Highschool? Did you want them to do the same pacing for CSM like they did with GoH or what?

I love chainsaw man but with the amount of time their taking to release the Reze Arc movie allows so many spoilers to reach me, but no hate to the workers cause of the Mappa situation.

@sadboyshin Animation was top tier. Pacing was perfect. They also added some extra scene which enhances the source material.

i wish it had a darker aestethic (this clean af aestethic seems so wrong to me for a series like CSM) and about the pacing I was hoping they adapted at least the Reze Arc in the series

Lookback is a biopic into fujimotos own experiences and feelings as a mangaka. Obviously he’d feel more strongly about it than chainsaw man.

I’m convinced that calling CSM bad is just a product of shortsightedness. And the fact that people don’t like nuance and have the attention spans of goldfish, so they need a giant pair of boobs on screen at all times to keep them locked in.

Idk man I'm pretty sure him saying that he praised it more than csm or saying that someone took his Look Back work seriously means he in any shape or form dislike the csm anime but hey maybe that's just me sayin because that's my opinion of his comment on the Look Back movie.

I don’t see the point in this thread. They’re both good mangas and I don’t see why we’re pitting his opinions on his works against each other like whichever series he likes best should receive more validation or is more significant.

That’s probably not your intention, but ironically, it’s difficult to even get your point in the first place in order to consider said intention. Cool, he praised Look Back more (or not), what else is there to say?

I hope you find that “banter” you’re looking for, though lmao.
It'll all be okay in the end. If you're not okay, it's not the end.

@GTRaijin most people don't hate csm. it's the vocal minority that shits on anything that's popular(especially if it's popular). in case of csm, this was just a bit extreme cuz of the hype and hate towards nakayama.

the only real complaint I have with chainsawman is season ends soo early. You barely get into the series itself, and it loses at a lot of steam coming into the next season/movie.

should have been 24 episodes, or having season 2 announced right away

@Macaroon17 https://www.animesenpai.net/petition-started-to-remake-chainsaw-man-anime-with-a-new-director/

One of the main issues raised in the petition is the interpretation of the original work by director Ryuu Nakayama. As cited in the petition, many fans have felt that there is a significant gap between Nakayama’s vision for the anime and the original manga.

Another major issue raised in the petition is the overall quality of the animation. While the animation itself has been praised for its high quality, there have been criticisms of the direction and storyboarding of the show, with some feeling that the impact of the battle scenes and gags has been lost due to a reliance on realism and excessive use of drawing strokes. In contrast, on SNS there are opinions that the Mappa studio’s “Dorohedoro,” the animation production company TRIGGER would have been the ideal direction for the Chainsaw Man animation.

they hate the realism and cinematic feel of the adaptation and obviously the poor disc sales is the result
