How the fuck was this published in 2019? We got the "fan content" also known as plain mix of misogyny and sexism from beginning of 2010's. If a dude comes up to you and says that he really enjoyed Chainsaw Man, maybe also ask him if he is aware that women are people and not just sexual objects, the answer might be not quite what you want. 
I will still probably continue with the series, but some parts of it are terrible. You can defend calling people dogs and putting them in terrible situations, where every wrong move is punishable by death, but it is still terrible and just not good. I hope that as the series goes along it will fade away and be replaced by something better, but honestly I am just trying to not lose faith in my partner.

I really enjoyed the plot of this book and also the art! It was a really fun read but I couldn't rate it any higher because the main character just uses women and objectifies them completely. It was really uncomfortable to read the last couple of chapters because it's just him staring at boobs pretty much. I would probably still recommend this book because the majority of it was really enjoyable and I think any fan of action mangas/animes would get a lot out of it, but I think the last few chapters are just a very disappointing addition to an otherwise great manga. This a very unfortunate trend throughout a lot of mangas and I wish this book was an exception but unsurprisingly it isn't :(. Still a lot of fun and I would read the rest of the series though.

For a first volume this was something truly special and just absolutely fuckin brutal! Every fight is just so awesomely graphic and I can't wait to read more! 
Only thing I can say in negatives is that the characters are a little weak but that's also kind of the point so pretty much what I'm saying is this is great!!!
