Bittersweet Perfection, Just Short of 10

The opening and ending songs were fantastic, but what truly surprised me was the background score. The mix of Japanese rock, electronic elements, and classical tones made the soundtrack worth the ticket alone.The film quickly establishes the antagonist without overemphasizing, and the narrative flows naturally through the characters rather than relying on clichés. It leaves a bittersweet impression, almost like Natsume's Book of Friends.MAPPA's visuals are stunning as expected, with a few scenes even giving me an Akira-like vibe in the best way possible.The only reason it's not a perfect 10 is that I wanted more interaction between the main character and the supporting cast. Still, this movie is an exceptional experience in story, visuals, and especially music - easily one of the best anime films I've seen in years.

It is fun

It is what you expected it to be ... Pure fun.Animation is lit the good ol Mappa is doing what it does best. First half is Emotion, second half is Action, Ending could have been different but they decided to close the movie there. Not that it make movie bad or anything it is still great and impactful. Can't wait for season 2.

MAPPA gave us the best animated film of the year! 2025 is a big year for anime!

The long-awaited "Chainsaw Man" movie has been released.After almost three years, MAPPA gave us another glimpse of Denji and company's adventures, and I couldn't be happier with the result.While comparing isn't ideal, we recently had the KNY movie, which was very good but didn't feel like a complete experience due to being the first of three parts.The opposite is true of this movie, which is well-rounded from beginning to end and shows us the entire Reze the Bombshell arc. While it starts slowly, it gradually becomes more dynamic until we reach a point where we don't stop until the very end.We have very good character development for Denji, a wonderful Reze with Aki performing perfectly. We also have the addition of supporting characters like the Angel Demon and the Shark Demon, who give us memorable scenes. There are also a couple of incredible Makima moments. Unfortunately, this movie loses its power due to her limited presence.The film has everything: excellent animation, risqué scenes that serve the plot, and plenty of action and gore.The budget allocated to it is clearly noticeable, and it's used to its full potential.All of this is crowned with a bittersweet ending, revealing the outcome of Reze's story and a preview of what Makima will do next with other characters... A truly great experience, the best animated film I've seen this year.
