A personal positive take on the ending of Chainsaw Man

Hi! against my will i keep being shown horrible takes, whining and ragebait over Csm 232 and the series end as a whole! so i would like to give my own take here as to why i liked the ending!, strap in cuz it's a bit long! first i wanna get something out of the way: There are reasons to complain or be dissatisfied and in all honesty, yes, fujimoto might've been tired of the constant work he had to put in, maybe it felt a it rushed, too cheery. ultimately though..

Deep down i know this is exactly what I wanted and the ending it needed.

I'm happy about that

A while ago i had adiscussion that chainsaw man couldn't end on a depressing note, it just didn't make sense to make it so an abuse victim would be dead or in hell forever; It would be mean spirited and pointless towards the entirety of the manga's ideals and themes.

I can see and I would understand why someone would be upset at the reset. However, i hold my stance i had during that argument:

Denji was broken, WAY too broken by part 2. In part 1, as he's offered to be free and run away with Reze, he says he was beginning to like his job, that He got along with aki and power and didnt saw them as annoyances, he stayed behid to watch over power over his own feelings, he had grown to appreciate life Pochita might have said denji was not happy fully

But Makima saw otherwise "You were happy even in poverty, So i had to make you even happier and have that happiness be the norm"

Denji was happy with aki and power, truly happy, he just happened to dream for more, its just who he is, its human nature

Part 2 Denji wouldn't have stayed with someone as he did for Power, he was too lost on trying to keep himself together and alive by means of hedonism, sex, food, companionship in general Denji is an abuse victim

He needed rehab, a loving family to show him he doesnt need to be selfish and hedonistic to live, just routine and stabilty, genuine care

Power and Aki were that rehab

And they were taken from him

After that he subscribed to the whole "perpetual motion machine" mindset. the thought that loved ones don't matter, that they can be replaced as anything else, an obvious cope from him. Part 2 denji was fundamentally broken; People, animals, any kind of victim of abuse can be rehabbed for the most part.

The brain however has a limit - A point where a dog won't trust ever again, where it will look out for itself and itself alone, where it won't recognize the hand that feeds and will only see the food, no matter how much care the one's around it want to show Denji was broken mentally the moment they took power and aki from him, even as he got Nayuta, he let her die to get his fix of his favorite coping mechanism -- An addict, just like his father.

Add to this the word sinking into chaos: it literally ending He couldn't hold on to the promise of family, or a girlfriend, the dreams of food and school he once had There was nothing, just him and a woman. How do you date in the end of the world? You don't It's why He only saw sex

The ending does feel a bit rushed. Maybe fujimoto got tired, maybe this was the plan all along It doesn't really matter

By the end of part 2 Denji wasn't just dumb and had done mistakes, He was completely unfixable, utterly unsalvagable, broken to a point of noreturn Taking him to a point before the snapping of his mental state is the only way he could be saved

Sappy? Convenient? Lazy? Rushed? You could say that. I don't care.

Because anything less than a happy ending would be needlessly cruel and would completely shit over Denji as a character and the themes of the manga "Buh buhbuh,, nothing happened if it was reset, there was no arc no development"

Denji continued to get worse, He was never gonna get anywhere

In all honesty it's not about his development in universe

It's about the meta narrative that comes from us being the ones to see all he went through

It still matters because we got to see it, cuz we read it

It still matters because it showed us the type of people all the characters are, in their good and bad moments

In happiness and suffering

Denji was always fighting a losing battle, even as he was so fixated on the same shit over and over in part two, as i said, it was all but a way to cope as the world slipped through his fingers like sand

What he really wanted was a normal life, that was his biggest dream; Part 2 didnt have one to after he relapsed into being chainsaw man, there was nothing left for him, no way to be happy or lead a normal life. This is what's best for Denji and the story, no other ending would make sense thematically or narratively

I'm happy

You can dislike it or think it's childish or lazy or rushed or something but I'm genuinely happy with this

It's what Denji deserves as much after so long

thank you for reading, I like chainsaw man a lot :3

So, that undertale stream huh? i dont even know where to begin emotions-wise, like, I went from being jokingly upset at Toby for not showing the entire of the new areas to ugly crying afer he described them like "it's a what if but not really, they've always been there, the underground is a big place Cuz legitimately it hit me like a truck. Why was I so pressed? I mean obviously i know why, but like I, *we* already knew snowdin had a lower area, with a house, someone has to live there, someone had to have walked there

The ruins aren't just a backdrop, it was a city, they have things inside, and around, of course there was a town square, of course it has a statue of the queen

The fish type monsters have to have come from somewhere proper, not some shallow waters in Waterfall

Ofc there are houses in hotland, where were the inhabitants of that area supposed to sleep?

And a school? Well yeah they have children to educate

As silly as it is, as upsetting as it kinda was to be able to see what was basically the perfect world building you've dreamt of for years from something you love, so close, yet so far out of reach as much as i wish i could explore the rest of the city in the ruins and the forest, maybe to see if i can get to the cabin at the bottom

I really do think it's okay

It's always been there, of course it's always been there

Of course Noelle is there, Asgore talked about Rudy in that one scrapped alarm thing that takes place in undertale's timeline

Ofc there's a bird that's prolly berdly's mum, he has to have been around too if Noelle was

Susie, or Suzy, is probably around too somewhere and all this, is stuff we already all knew, sure its exciting to see it, upsetting to not get to have it personally, but those few things aint necessarily new the fact we aint seen them before doesn't mean they wasn't there, we all already knew they existed, because we talked about it, because we wrote about it

We've been here, thinking, drawing, writing; Imagining what the characters we can't see are doing, in the parts far away we can't reach

its nice to see it happen truly, with our own eyes, yes, but we already knew all this to be true, because we imagined it and brought it to life the underground is a big place, Frisk themselves with us by their side didn't get to see all of it, so many unexplored places, faces we havent met, but it doesn't mean they dont exist i think it was a beautiful way to end the stream, your locations, monsters, interactions and thoughts are all real because you've made em with love, just cuz they didnt happen right in front of the the eyes of the SOUL it doesn't mean it didnt happen or they aint real

Enjoy this lovely assorted platter of variousfear and hunger characters doing miscelanous activities! (it's actually mostly Daan and Marina, my beloveds) I fucking love these games so much aksdsaodajamna

Real image of me trying to be functional and doing the dishes while listening to the undertale OST, who needs water from the tap when you can spill your tears thinking about how beautiful undertale is

[headlezzzlimeknight]

I've been having an undertale and deltarune kick lately because it's been brought up so much in my friend circle lately, i've slowly been remembering both how much i love the game and how much it really meant to me while growing up, having had played it as such a young lass.. i swear to god the entirity of the OST makes me cry, it makes me think of all the dumb roleplays and drawings i did of it when i was younger, god damn this game means a lot to me, and yes im writing this cuz of the ''what does undertale mean to you'' thing toby fox did a day ago, i wrote for it but still, the characters given were too few to truly express how ifeel about it, thinking of undertale makes me cry lmao

My poor beloved puppy wife having to listen to me talking about why i love Pocketcat so much and how i find him interesting while I also explain in detail how absolutely disgusting and vile that bastard is, she can only nod and smile while probably thinking ''what the fuck is wrong with you''

Copper armor and tools being added to minecraft has only proved that minecraft players cannot be happy with anything and also have no idea how game balancing works you want copper armor to have a gimmick? it already does! 'tis that 'tis cheap as FUCK and mass producible due to the abundance of copper! why in god's name do you want the fucking armor to give you WX-78 lighting overcharge from Don't starve, or to let you do electric attacks?? aren't you the same people who complain about how minecraft feels ''modded'' now with every update and yet you want power creep armor when 'tis just supposed to be a tier before iron for early game? i HATE g*mers
