Chainsaw Man

[KrayZ33]

Overall okay first episode. And yes, the devil dog isn't dead, 100% still inside his mind.

What I didn't like, though, is how it feels like the awkwardness of Japanese live-action movies is now fully manifesting itself in anime. There's just so many weird things being said or shown that, if I were watching this with another person in the room with me, would make me feel super embarrassed. Like, why did he sell his balls and an eye? Why didn't he run away? Why is everyone talking about devils as if it's normal? Why did the girl hug him and treat him so friendly? Why didn't he stay in the garbage can and wait for the zombie devil to go away?

Did you somehow unlearn how to watch movies, read books and enjoy media?
I mean all media, not just anime or japanese shows.

Aside from most points obviously being adressed in some way in the future, while other actually HAVE been adressed already - the bolded part is what is really weird.
Did you consider that... it would have been boring to watch and be an awful show if he had not?
"Why did Superman use his powers" is basically what you asked.

I really struggle to follow you most of the time, you must be really unfun to be around when watching shows or movies. Especially since you somehow expect everything to be explained in less than a second for some reason instead of trying to think for yourself even once, why is that? That's not how media and art is done. These aren't documentaries you are watching and if they aren't and do it like that, it's actually for the worse and every critique would point it out as a flaw and say how unnecessary it is.

What the heck - I think you shouldn't worry about other people watching this show with you. There is something you have to take care of first that would make another person even want to watch a show together with you in one room, lol.

Would you even be *able* to understand what is happening in shows like CP:Edgerunners ? Considering how that show is basically all in on the "show, don't tell" approach. Sorry, not sorry, to dick on you again once more, but I don't believe, considering your points here, that you can even say anything meaningful about the writing of a show and no one would even have a clue what a show would have to be told or look like to please you. Sometimes I think you are just trying to be contrary to... something.. I don't even know what. I guess it's no fluke that you hold shows like that semi-Sex-Show from last season in high regards while others immediatly see it as trash, for good reason.

Oh btw, it's not like I want you to reconsider liking this show more or anything. My gripe is with the arguments solely.
