Review of Chainsaw Man

The newest and of course most awaited show from MAPPA's ever growing slate of IPs has ended after 3 months adapting about half of Part 1 of the manga. MAPPA has delivered a truthful adaptation of the source material supported by good animation and great music. One feature that I personally enjoyed was the different ending songs after each episode. Chainsaw Man's art and animation were very well done, with only a few distracting CGI moments. The plot was enjoyable to follow and the voice acting was sublime. As a person who enjoyed the second part of the manga way more than the first I amreally looking forward to the show's second season, but this first part is a very well crafted adaptation that does the intended job very well with bringing this world and the characters to life.

Is Chainsaw Man the best show of the Fall 2022 season? - Probably not. But is it worth a watch? - Most definitely.
