5.0

A mix-mash of gory violence, slapstick humor with all the bizarreness you could never expect. It's quite challenging with a number of triggering content and over-the-top violence but if you're willing to venture through it you will find its tiny little beating heart. At its core Chainsaw Man is, in a way, a story about a boy's searching for a way to survive the world -- and love.

Primo volume interessante, sicuramente andrò avanti con la storia. 
I disegni sono fenomenali, specialmente le pagine dedicate ad una singola scena. 
I personaggi non mi hanno convinto al 100% perché per il momento mi sembrano abbastanza piatti, ma spero che nei prossimi fumetti della serie mi ricrederò.

4.0

What a frenetic and action-packed beginning! The Muscle Devil scene gave a nice parallel to Denji and Pochita’s situation, so I’m a bit sad it was not included in the anime. However, I think I liked the pacing of the anime more, since there’s always a lot going on in the manga.
