Thought I'd share this with the class

y'all remember when chainsaw man said "capitalism and abuse makes people so lonely and isolated that they risk their own integrity and well being just to have an normal life and be loved" and now it's saying "to meet someone who understands you and you relate to is disturbing and disgusting and so annoying but now you'll never be alone again and you would give everything to keep them" yea that fucks me up a little

Holy crap Fujimoto is godly for this

The way there is so much emotion? In Chainsaw Man’s nonexistent face? This is a feat of excellent paneling and mood building AND HOLY CRAP

Wanting to save Asa is making Denji talk about his feelings?? Denji who just before cut up his brain and uses deflection and distraction as coping mechanisms and is like so emotionally unaware suddenly feels comfortable enough to share about his shitty life and his world outlook and his own coping mechanisms through talking about animals and stuff??! Oh my god

They are connecting and it’s so touching

guys. guys.

chapter 115 means so fucking much to me.

it's almost like a repeat of his first interaction with reze. the ta-daaa, the act of kindness, etc.

except this time, just maybe, asa truly did need help. and this time, we see her face the entire time. there's no tricks, no forced blushing, and asa's already revealed what she really wanted him for. it's just denji helping someone out.

or fujimoto's hiding her inner monologue, and we've been tricked. (on the note of fujimoto, can we talk about the growth in artstyle?)

idk i guess i wanted to say i love my cringefail couple

CSM #121 SPOILERS

Not only is Asa not dodging the femcel allegations...

...she's diving headfirst into them.

Autistic Asa

eIt’s been a long while since I have been so invested in the relationship between two people, but I really want Asa and Denji to, at the very least, walk out that aquarium on the road to being friends.

Like, Denji spent his whole life being used and manipulated by other people, being left with nothing but scarps and ended up being thankful for so little. He spent Part 1 wanting the bare minimum because he didn’t know how to want for anything else, he didn’t even know how to want a proper, loving connection and relationship with other people. And over time he got that, he had that with Aki, and Power and maybe something with Reze, but Makima tore all that away in the most cruel fashions, tearing him down until there was almost nothing left. Denji came out the other side alive, but he lost those things.

Asa on the other hand, while not having a life as terrible as Denji’s is clearly alone and miserable for it. Despite how cynical and pessimistic she is, she clearly wants people in her life, between Bucky remembering her name and her providing a phone for the devil hunting club, she seemed genuinely happy about the prospect of connecting with other people. It’s just that she has inceribly shit luck, she ended up killing Bucky, she dropped and broke her phone, which caused everyone to hate her. Yuko seemed like a great start to having a friend, and while did seem genuine, she ended up being a school shooter that Asa has to have a fight to the death with. Then there’s Yoru, the devil possessing her body, holding her hostage and forcing her to kill people and turn them into weapons, and Asa was sad and disappointed when she remember she wasn’t with her in the aquarium.

Be it romantic or platonic, however long it takes, I just want these two sad and lonely kids to just be there for one another.

I hate these specific people so much in Octavinelle. Like theres this three fish that reside there and they are sooooooooooo annoying. Why does this Azul Ashengrotto so insecure for? He's literally so gorgeous I hate him so much, he's literally so hard working and amazing and so smug🙄🙄 And this one dude who I dont even care for named Jade leech, like why the hell is he so dashingly handsome for and so adorable when he talks about what he likes and so scrunkly and ARGH He's so annoying, him with his little devious smile 😒😒 And then Lastly the Infuriating Floyd leech. His smile, his laugh, his stupidly adorable grin, why is he so freaking irresistible? Literally no one likes you please let me kiss your cheeks you stupid smirking eel. I HATE THEM SO MUCH!!!! Why are their cheeks so kissable and squishy and why do I wanna smother them and squish them with a bone crushing hug, ugh they are so annoying🙄🙄 Literally why I hate them so much

workin

>everyone who mistreats denji sees him as a dog (yakuza, makima, even rez says he looks like her dead dog)

>asa is shown blatantly to be a cat person

What if denasa/asaden will not be the enemies to (cringe)lovers trope but instead Dating Catwoman?

NEW CSM PART TWO CHAPTER GOT ME SCREAMING RUNNING AROUND IN CIRCLES HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW WE FEELING??

I’ve seen people say Asa horrendous kisser this awkward kisser that, but what I know in my heart of hearts is that if she knew it was coming, she’d read some magazine about kissing techniques and unleash them all on her first kiss with Denji. Oh it would be very awkward and totally horrendous

lol there’s Asaden ship we know and love!

Love she wants to help but her dislike for fish still strong. Why you ask babygirl 😂

Guess we’ll get sushi date in 2 weeks.

Seeing NAyuta and other hybrids are yet be heard of. She’s alive, somewhere. Yoshida probably used octopus to sweep her out the mayhem.

Kinda odd public safety isn’t tracking our crew down or intervening. Maybe at sushi date next chapter hard to say. Surely Barem still in contact with Fami don’t forget we had week timeskip of Denji in coma and Asa doing something…

Oh Segi is back. What’s up with that guy 🤨

Wish fujimoto good rest and brainstorming. Part 2 despite pacing such a slow burn with bunch of unanswered plots.

This was a very fast arc, not my favorite but nice we got humorous one after previous downer we received.

Curious who volume 18 character art be on, my bet is Haruka he was good stand out character

me and my boyfriend where talking about how 500 days of summer is reze den coded and got me thinking what was asaden coded. was thinking maybe lala land. what are we thinking guys :3

Kiss #1: Himeno gets super drunk and vomits down Denji’s throat.

Kiss #2: Reze bites Denji’s tongue off, and then tries to kill him in a intense fight that crosses like half the city.

Kiss #3: Asa says she hates him, leaving him confused why she is even here and ends up doubting himself, before Yoru surprises him with a kiss with the intention of killing him. Nayuta shows up and shoots a chain through Yoru’s head on sight.

Fourth times the charm, right?

Right?
