There were too many panning shots and 1:1 adaptations of random manga panels. If Mappa sticks to their insistence on using jarring CG as a cost cutting strategy things will not be looking good for the rest of the series. All in all people are gonna be really let down by this. Yes, CGI is more costly than hand-drawn animation. This guy doesn't know what he's talking about. It is used to save time. |

Her seiyuu is the current top young idol in anime industry and the biggest sponsor of this anime is Sony music. take a guess :) Welp, that explains a lot, fucking hell lol I guess this sort of thing still happens even nowadays. Nonetheless, absolutely insane first episode, This will be one hell of a season! |

| Absolute masterpiece. Already the anime of the decade. Haters are crying in the corner. Let them review bomb the anime, it won't change anything, they know that Chainsaw Man has already transcended Japanese animation. |
| im crying, IS PEAKKKKKKKKKKKKKK THANKS MAPPA FOR THIS ANIME |

| The opening's pretty groovy. Apparently the ending's going to change every episode too, which is going to be pretty interesting. |
| Mankind knew that they cannot change society. So instead of reflecting on themselves, they blamed the beasts. |

| Well its here, the anime everyone was hyping up. First episode was alright, I think this could go places I will enjoy. |
 |
| Well Chainsaw Man is finally here, surprised the Crunchyroll servers didn't go down. So they really used a bunch of CGI, contrary to what some crazy fans were telling me. It wasn't a bad first episode and I think they perfectly adapted the first chapter. Also I really liked the visual in this episode, specially the scenery. |

| Love the OP, its very chainsaw man vibe, its chaotic, weird and funny (✧∀✧) Dang! so much foreshadowing, I'm so excited to see the future episodes. Perfectly captured grim atmosphere of the manga. Cute pochita moments. ヾ(☆'∀'☆) The combined 2d and cgi action, I think it blended well because of the lighting and coloring, nice action direction, Denji running to charge to the main devil while slashing the others is smooth. (╯°Д°)╯ ┻━┻ Thankfully, the adaptation is uncensored, can't wait to see the absurb humor and high octane action on the next eps, good job mappa staffs.ヾ(^ω^*) I already like Vaundy, they always deliver good songs, so this ed is automatic banger to me. I wonder who's the next artist in charge for next episode's ed. |

| Contenwise it's honestly far from my favorite start. The artistry, cinematography and audiovisual quality on the other hand are something to behold. There's gritiness to the color palette, which I would've wished to see for Jujutsu Kaisen more often and I love how greyish tones contrast with the brighter colors. Yet again Weekly Shounen Jump delivered the ideal draft for an adaptation of the hightest calibre. Their mangaka and MAPPA are a dream team and I'm already looking forward to future releases. Boy, the opening is so fun. It's like an expression of carefreeness and adrenaline. |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Brilliant episode, loved how surreal the OP is, MAPPA literally delivered. It still feels like a fever dream, watching Chainsaw Man. Can't wait to see more. |
 |
| AN ALMOST PERFECT EPISODE They tell us everything the same as the manga with many more extra scenes and most importantly without censorship the only problem here is that they used a bit of CGI but it is understandable for the projects of the MAPPA studio which was the one that animated this anime but in the same way 10/10 |
I'm not a critic or anything like that but I like to give my opinion |
| Pretty good I thought. I love the OP, and the ED is decent as well. I think the story is cool, and will probably continue to be good as it goes on. Visually, it looks good. It did have a lot of CGI in the fight with the Zombie Devil, which some people might not like. But I think they executed it well. It fits into the animation style pretty well I think. |
| Dennis scream was kinda disappointing but nice cgi |

| NGL this is going to be one of the best anime in this decade. I have read the manga and am sure this studio turned the manga into this anime well done, even surpassed my expectation. The sound? Great! The color? Perfect! The animation style? Superb, anti-mainstream, and fresh. God bless MAPPA, really. |
| The animation is smooth and pretty, but the Denji's CGI man................... No Mappa, whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy |
 |
| I'm just here for the ride. What an episode. Last time I really enjoyed a premiere on this level was either SnK or TG about 8 years ago. |
| This episode was both really sad and really brutal. I loved it. |
