Staff Reviews


Chainsaw Man subverts all Shonen tropes with the depiction of its less than perfect and often misguided protagonist Denji. Where most protagonists in this genre are kind to a flaw, Denji is an anti-hero driven by all the wrong reasons making for a refreshingly good story.

— Brenda

Denji is down on his luck, doing everything he can repay a debt to the yakuza - including killing devils with his devil-dog Pochita and selling a few "non-essential" body parts. When Denji gains the power to become a demon at will, things get even messier. Can he survive long enough to reach his ultimate goal - getting physical with a girl?

— Nicholas G.
