Most people saw the anime Chainsaw Man’s first episode, no?
No! There must be people! Those who’s questioning why Chainsaw Man is getting so much attention!! And for such people, we’d like to do a simple overview of what kind of work Chainsaw Man is!!

First of all, if we are trying to answer: why is Chainsaw Man getting so much hype? The answer must be because it used to be serialized through Shonen Jump and was an explosive hit, selling 15 million copies of comic books during just 2 years!
Is it not published in Shonen Jump right now?
Since the ending of the first chapter, it moved over to the web version that’s ran by Shonen Jump. The second chapter is going smoothly, and this too is continuing to be raved!
So, this is a work that, despite a short span of publishing period, left an incredible impression on its fans. I see now.

If you don’t know, better not to find out yet!
The too-shocking ending of the first chapter with a ridiculous momentum created an uproar of reactions!

※Picture above is a mascot character, Pochita-Chan, and has nothing to do with the content of the last episode. Very cute.
And the reason why Chainsaw Man is often described as ‘shocking’ is because its story and the resulting consequences is just too......
Just too......?
couldn’t take eyes off of, would be the right expression. As it neared the last episode, some bad premonitions were true and some not...... everyone reading it was on their toes and was shocked with the ending of the story.
Let me just state the conclusion. Those who don’t know the ending of Chainsaw Man 1st Chapter should keep it that way.
Because when you find out the ending of Chainsaw Man without any prior knowledge...... at this moment, Chainsaw Man will probably become a work worthy of the titles ‘classic’ or a ‘masterwork’ for you.
So you mean, among all recent manga, this one has an especially drastic climax.

This can’t be Real!
Ending Themes are sung by Japan’s Famous Artists on Weekly Shifts!

Lastly, there is a ridiculous information released regarding the anime version’s theme songs. The opening theme is going to be done by Yonezu Kenshi-san, and the ending theme is going to be done by 12 different singer songwriters! Believe it or not, each episode will have its unique ending theme song that matches the mood of the episode. This is such a luxurious casting!!
●Yonezu Kenshi
A singer songwriter also active as Vocaloid P (Producter). Among recent artists, stands out with his singing ability, perspective, and expressivity, emitting a ‘genius’ aura.

So, each week, the ending theme song is sung by a different person?? Not a voice actor from the anime?
No. It will all be sung by professional singer song writers, or vocal groups. All pieces are newly commissioned, the announced members are beyond fancy, and there are many who have previously done anime theme songs!

From your perspective as a Japanese person, what are your impressions of these 12 (13 including the opening) groups responsible for the theme songs?
It consisted only of the groups that a Japanese otaku would think ‘if my favorite work were to be animated, I want the theme songs to be sung by this artist~!!!’
Wow I see. So, the ideal casting.
Like this, Chainsaw Man’s anime creation company Mappa has been raving about Chainsaw Man even while working on Jujutsu Kaisen (Sorcery Fight), saying it definitely wants to be the company to animate Chainsaw Man. And this confidence and motivation are another reason to make this anime ‘the work with the highest amount of staffs’ passion among all fall anime.’
Makes sense. I feel like even if someone doesn’t know the anime company Mappa, they may be familiar with its previously created anime?
Yes, personally, I see the anime production company Mappa as a ‘company that animates works that cannot be animated without strong preferences and passion enough to disregard budgets.’

Timing of Animation, Production Company, Staff’s Love, Fan’s Expectations.
Blessed by all, a work that will be animated in ‘Perfect Shape’: Chainsaw Man!
