| Loved it even though it was confusing. |
| That was crazy. I don't really know how I feel but I really enjoyed it. I was expecting like one last big fight at the very end but I'm fine with what we got. I'm really starting to like Fujimoto's works. |

| Damn, i can't believe i almost dropped this manga by chapter 10. I thought it was too edgy and meaningless, but i was wrong. I'm so glad i continued reading. Around chapter 15 is when it starts to pick up the pace. I started reading fire punch cause of chainsawman. Though i like chainsawman a tad more, both are great same with The way the mangaka storytells and conveys its themes too. 👏Fujimoto Tatsuki👏 9/10 |
 |
| Final chapter was something for sure. I can't say I have seen an ending quite like it, very nihilistic for sure, but wow. That is something. I really liked this overall but I was more into the first half than the second, the second half felt a little rushed with the ending too. I wonder what's up with Fujimoto and endings lmao. Maybe I am missing something tho. This got confusing, like CSM ending too lol. But I liked Fire Punch. Good story. Would read again, but would get a physical copy for a re-read. It is worth the money. Gotta respect Fujimoto's love for movies and insanity too lol. What a great author. 8-9/10 |
| 10/10 best movie I've ever read :') And I love that the ending of this manga divided so much, it reminds me the chapter of Chainsaw man where Makima and Denji are at the cinema and only them cried at movies considered stupid by the others, reading Fire Punch surely made me feel like that haha. I loved that the ending was a mix between DevilMan and Interstellar endings. |

| Listening to Komm Susser Tod while reading this chapter made this conclusion a 10/10. I had some issues with some parts which will sadly damage my rating but if I had two things to praise, it will be the fantastic art and the bizarre conclusion which in my opinion, worked out nicely. I can understand why this isn't ideal for some but knowing how confusing some prior chapters were, this isn't super unexpected by any means and for the type of series it is, I think this was a fair way to conclude and wrap up the narrative. |
 |
| The manga should've ended about 30 chapters before this. Meh. |
| everybody fire punch but nobody water kick. why even live anymore? |
 |
| That was a pretty lackluster conclusion. I'm left not really knowing how to feel about Fire Punch. The first several chapters I thought were awful, too entrenched in the taboo darkness of the world without anything to connect to or make worth reading. However once Togata gets introduced, it becomes one of the most fun series I've read, capturing more of the same fun insanity that Chainsaw Man could so readily deliver. They're easily the best character in the series, by a large margin. Not only are they the most fun, I feel their character moment is the only one that worked on a dramatic level, the scenes with Togata & Agni discussing the trans reveal I thought was handled mostly well. The series never really recovered past Togata's death (and I still think how that came about with Doma's massacre was poorly written), I do think the stuff with the found family of girls afterward had some interesting bits to it, like the relationship with Tena, her line "Only you don't want you to be happy" is something of a profound statement I think, one I could relate to anyway. But I'll be honest, Agni's sister complex never really worked for me on any dramatic level, and the series becomes wholly focused upon in the final volumes which made it a drag to go through. It does connect to one of the themes of lies becoming truths, that whole thematic thread of what determines who we are being the perception held of us, but it just never connected to me on any level. I guess it's nice they got to pay-off that incest note from the first chapter. I'm left conflicted with a rating but I'll go with a 6/10. Fire Punch had some of the most fun & best things I've ever read like Suyla's Star Wars motivation but a lot of the other chapters would rank among the most unpleasant or dull I've ever read. Bounced back and forth between a 5 & a 6 but I went with a 6 because A. I generally prefer to lean towards the positive, & B. I sort of appreciate how all over the place it went. The series had balls, no one can deny that. |
| The sun and moon (luna) pretty good ending. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| Wow what a confusing ride and they meet with different names that doesn’t belong to them But the name thought sun and moon wow |
 |
| Looking forward to anything Fujimoto Tatsuki does from now on, really impressed with his work overall as a comic creator (as in general, not just manga), his work just flows panel to panel and love how his stories can be told without going for hundreds of chapters. Close to a 10/10 for me but i'd say a great 9 for me. |

The panelling was so good, you can really feel emotion even when there’s no dialogue. The story is quite unique too. Hats off to Fujimoto. |

Lol yeah I finished that 8th volume just before leaving for work, story might not be perfect but damn it was entertaining and as someone with so much left to read and not enough time, I really appreciate the rhythm this manga has, really looking forward to continue Chainsaw Man which might be finished but it's on its 4th volume in the edition I'm currently buying, love it so far and that's why I went and bought all of Fire Punch since that was all available. |

You're in for a big journey with Chainsaw Man! You haven't even scratched the surface of CSMs great moments. Have fun! :D |

| The finale was decent imo. There wasn't much of a conclusion |
on 
| Somehow finished this in 2 days, wow. The art can be rough around the edges and imperfect (the girls are good tho, Agni's looks are lame), but I appreciate what the author was trying to do with this. I guess falling asleep means they were finally relieved of their "blessing" (more like a curse to me tbh) and died peacefully? |
| Unpopular opinion but I liked the second half of the story a little bit more than the first half. Easily a 10/10 series. |
| I loved it! It was such an insane and interesting story that I read through it all relatively quick, cause I was always interested in knowing what would happen next! The end was completely crazy, but to be fair, about halfway through it I already imagined things would go to an unexpected route, and I was prepared for pretty much anything. It was like the beginning of the story was the hardest part to stomach as a way to filter out whoever expected something normal from it. I wasn't disappointed honestly... I really don't know how such a insane story could have ended in a more normal / cliche manner... I think it just wouldn't fit to it. And it has so many subtleties that I wonder what is up to interpretation here. At the end I was under the impression that maybe Agni suffered so much through his life because feeding people his flesh and having had a carnal relationship with his sister could have been seen as sins by the "gods". And I believe Judah and Luna were not, in fact, the same person. But were from the same lineage, as well as the Ice Witch. And Agni, as Luna's brother, was probably the male counterpart of that race of ancient regenerative blessed. I came from Chainsaw Man that I just read a week before! I'm super glad to have stumbled upon Tatsuki Fujimoto's works, I loved both these manga. |

| very good ending, reminds me of the old japanese creation myth, izanagi izanami and all that. Very good revenge story and a good 2nd half with whatever that had 8/10 |
    |
| What a pessimistic ending. To me, it seems that the author views emotions such as guilt, anger, and resentment to be so strong that they can take hold of your entire being. That they can grow so intense, that people can no longer escape them. Even if their memories disappear, they move based on these emotions because that is all they know despite the havoc that is caused as a result to both themselves and those around them. I think this manga had a rough start, but it became unique and interesting during the movie arc, and landed a powerful final arc that explored the theme I described. Overall, really good stuff. |
 |
| For the hype of being a top "revenge" story and claimed as one of the best manga to not be adapted into an anime, this was surprisingly disappointing in the end and ultimately legitimately wrong in popularity of legitimately being great, which it isn't. It's abstract for being very unique in its own unpredictable methods, but it's a little childish in some regard, while losing a meaning to it all in the end with its finale. The themes and conflict of essentially not having any "true" villain, but mad ignorant people each with their own delusions is great, with how complex it is through religion and a false common sense, from; believing an ice queen is who cursed them in an ice age, and that the gifted are entitled by the fire god. To the point of believing they can control anything with slavery, rape, etc. When in reality none of those figures exist, and the earth is simply getting colder, and everyone in the past was born gifted with all the powers, which felt natural, and were nonchalant about its use. ... That's great. The drive of being movie fanatics from Togata and Surya with each of their own goal is odd yet interesting, even though it's dumb. The original earthlings of the past who all resemble each other in complete peace who escaped in another planet is cool, but never explained why or how they resemble each other as clones. ... The ultimate romance in the finale is completely dumb though. Somewhow, Agni only twice in his life loses his consciousness to rage to kill for Luna... His love is idiotic though because he truly doesn't love her, but anyone who could look and sound like her. Basically, Agni and Judah loving each other as Luna is false, because he doesn't love her, he loved Luna... and Judah fell in love with him regardless, even continued to love him after regaining her memories... which never felt legitimate since he's only using her as a replacement for Luna. So, when both meet again while not being the same or remembering clearly who or what they are ... it's fucking dumb. Aside from that, his meaning to live throughout the story never felt solid. Although, the rest, like his complicated identity and how the other characters developed, living or dying, deluded or not was great. Doma, San, Togata, etc. were good characters. The message portal through movies may feel immature along with Togata's ridiculous forced attitude to cope from her issues, but it's an interesting way to narrate the message to not judge an actor by his roles in Agni the protagonist. Entertaining and enjoyable in a way, but not great or perfect even though it has its charms. The ending hinders it, I feel. Somewhat odd incest in the beginning and overall to his love and Luna's for each other, but the journey isn't excellent and the romance unfortunately becomes stupid in the end. 5/10. |

| damn, the last 4 chapters. such a beautiful ending. cried a little, not gonna lie. |
| What an spectacular, crazy and original ending. "Fire Punch" manga was really entertaining ride, with many fresh concept and brilliant paneling. |
| What a fucking KINO. |
| Absolutely phenomenal ride! Easy 9/10, enjoyed it immensely. It would be very hard for any other story to surprise me as much as Fire Punch did! |
| What is up with good manga completely changing the tone of the story halfway through only to end up in this sort of evangelion ending? The last 2 or 3 chapters really felt rushed. It was a good read but idk.. the story just wasnt as good anymore after Togata was gone. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| compelling characters, fascinating drama, engaging worldbuilding, powerful art. truly incredible manga i didn't enjoy it at all. it felt like reading a migraine i miss togata |

| I don't even know what to feel about this anymore. Is it good or is it bad? I am not even sure. It might be something like 7/10 in my book. It had some great ups while having lackluster and ambiguous parts all the time. |
