4.25/5

I love how Denji has the most negative rizz ever, yet still gets all the girls. They're all crazy and murderous, but that doesn't matter.

Currently, I'm enjoying this new arc a lot. I might make a longer review later, I did pilates today and my whole body is shattered.

نباید این اتفاق آخرش میفتاددددد ولی کاملا میشد از این نویسنده حدس زد که قراره کار سادیسمی انجام بده مخصوصا که فضای خیلی آروم با گل و آسمان و ساختمون نشون میداد🥲💔

Cada que una mujer se le acerca a Denji con intenciones “romanticas”. Yo: Sh*t, here we go again!! 🤦.3.5⭐

The Chainsaw Man series has fully gotten into its stride now, this was one of my favourite volumes so far! It’s so funny at times, and the lack of Power was absolutely made up for by Asa/Yoru 🖤 They’re quickly becoming one of my favourite characters, a Jekyll & Hyde type-situation going on.
Denji is desperate to be outed as Chainsaw Man - but is he being almost too obvious at school? His classmates are starting to think that he just a super fanboy.

So annoying there’s no cover art yet for the English edition 😅 I read on the Shonen Jump app, so I get the chapters wayyy before the volumes are released !!

[Mizuki · Rating 5 out of 5]

(1) There are many really interesting designs for the devils!

(2) The story of two friends and how it ends, *sob sobs*

(3) I couldn't believe this but this series is just getting better and better! ^_^

(4) I want to know what this other organization is up to!

(5) I like how Denji is trying to woo some girls now! ^_^

(6) War is still so cool! I like this when she is in action! I love her! ^_^

(7) Friendship is the best!!! 😁 💝

(8) All those poor students, though.

(9) Bullying is not okay, by the way!

When it comes to CSM I have zero objectivity. That's it. That's the review. ✨

i want to put denji in my pocket and never let him go

[Rod Brown · Rating 3 out of 5]

The high school arc continues. Denji is a side character for now, but the story is intriguing enough. It doesn't seem wholly necessary yet given what has gone before, but there are some of the twists and shocks one expects from this series.

FOR REFERENCE:

Contents: Chapter 104. Spoiler -- Chapter 105. Red Hot -- Chapter 106. Bonfire -- Chapter 107. School Attacker -- Chapter 108. Something Important to Asa -- Chapter 109. The Easy Way to Stop Bullying -- Chapter 110. A Ring in the Night -- Chapter 111. Aha Ha Ha Ha -- Chapter 112. Between Cat and Criminal

Denji learns NOTHING T_T

2.5⭐️
Part 1: Public Safety Saga (volumes 1-11) really got my attention and was wonderful but Part 2: Academy Saga is not as good as Part 1. I know it's soon to say this because it only has two volumes but, for me, it's so boring... I've been reading the weekly chapters and I don't like it as much as I did when I read Part 1

[Sara XuHerondale · Rating 5 out of 5]

Girl, I'm dying of laughter. I love Denji

i love how much more intense the story has gotten since part 1

[Katharine · Rating 3 out of 5]

I'm so mixed about this volume. I do genuinely like Asa and Denji's interactions, and I'm curious how that relationship (not as in shipping, as in two people who interact) will develop over arc two. But the rest...it's right back to stereotypical Shonen tropes. Also, Denji's current goal is so stupid, and it makes me actually aggravated every time it's brought up. Asa having to run around in her underwear also pissed me off. Like, come the hell on, was it necessary for the TEENAGE GIRL to be running about in her damn drawers?! This series has an annoying problem was sexualizing the bejesus out of the teenage characters, and it's been grating. I excused it at first since it was originally from Denji's viewpoint, and he is a "dumb horny teenager". But now that it's not, it's so goddamn irritating. Also, was the Famine devil meant to look like Makima? I saw her eyes and hair and thought it was Makima reincarnated or that Makima wasn't actually dead. But, no, it's the Famine devil. So now I'm not sure if her design was a purposeful jumpscare or just a sloppy character design. Also seeing as Asa is contracted with the War devil, I assume we're going to see all of the Four Horsemen as devils. Which I'm unsure how to feel about. The only thing I find interesting is so far two of the horsemen are depicted as women and not men. Unless that's only because War took Asa's image, so she only looks female because Asa is. I have no idea. The "twist" was pretty sad, but again, so god damn cliche. Oh, and I forget to mention it in my review of the previous volume, but. The little fourth wall breaks are really annoying and need to stop. Doing the "it's not like we're in a manga!" or "It's like we're manga characters!" thing is cutely cheeky once or twice, but multiple times in a single volume? Stop. Once was enough.

GOATED I LOVE DENJI IN THIS ARTSTLYE AND YOSHUDA ALSO I LIVE FAMI

[Mert · Rating 3 out of 5]

3/5 Stars (%65/100)

Better than the previous one but still not great. Asa and Denji's interaction was good and I'm curious about their relationship. However, I'm kind of annoyed at Denji. After everything that's happened, he is still childish and thinks about girls. So, he might really be a devil more than a human (like Power who was childish and had silly goals). The whole thing with Yuko caught me off-guard. It was a good volume but I'm honestly reading it because I'm too invested.

[James DeSantis · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another Chainsaw Man volume, another weird as fuck but can't stop reading volume.

Asa is really trying to be friends with a normal girl. Or so she thinks. Soon into this volume things get flipped upside down, and people's desires and secrets cause them to make a pact with these devils and of course makes life way worse.

Some really cool action, some weird as hell shit, and some funny bits. This volume got it all, with it's offbeat pace of very fast at times.

[Liam · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5*

[Marc D. ✨ · Rating 5 out of 5]

5/5 estrellas.

Oh Yuko yo te amo. Lloro porque amo a todos.

[Cassie Daley · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved this!! As with Vol. 12, this is a bit of a departure from the first few arcs of the series since this is the second part of the Chainsaw Man overall story. Denji is more of a side character right now, which I at first wasn't super into, but I have to admit that the Asa/Yoru story arc is growing on me, and I totally get needing to spend more time with her character as it develops considering what Yoru's ultimate goal is. I LOVE the way the characters interact without really knowing who the other truly is, and I love the mystery we get from the Devil Hunter Club -- definitely makes the high school time spent a lot more interesting.

Unexpectedly, the Asa / Yuko relationship hit me in my sad little heart and I looooved the end to this. Sad shit always gets me, I am who I am!
