Review of Chainsaw Man

If you look at my profile or have seen my other reviews you'll know I don't exactly follow the big shonen animes that get released, but that isn't to say I never check them out, Chainsaw Man was the balance of weird and intriguing for me without going over the top like Jojo, and one season 1 watch later, I am hooked on this show. A mix of splatter action and comedy, in a nutshell, Chainsaw Men tells the story of Denji, who is recruited into a devil-hunting service (as this series takes place in a world where there are devil creatures that can be basedon any kind of object), he joins a rag-tag team who go on missions for one significant reason or another, combinations of sad backstories, bigger worldly threats, and a very horny lead whose always eager to touch boobs.

The biggest positive I can give this show is that there isn't too much story and multiple storylines poured out into one episode, I feel like other bloated Shonen stories try to pile in so much that it becomes overwhelming and just mind-numbing, for this series you got one plotline that's stretched out to two episodes max at least. It makes the show easy to follow and never feels like I need to take a break just to rest my brain from all the chaos happening.
