This is some Hajime no Ippo shit but at least the art is still good there. The movie didn’t inspire Fujimoto whatsoever. Just let someone else take over drawing duties, he already said he doesn’t want to draw anymore

>>283074633
Why

>>283074489
And is not even the first time this happens... and won't be the last either.

>>283074652
Our heroes

When MAPPA adapts part 2, they are going to extend the hell out of fights. I get the feeling a lot of mangaka half ass battles because they expect the anime to buff em when time comes

>>283074739
Also Fujimoto himself admitted that he isn't good at drawing them.

>>283074739
>they are going to extend the hell out of fights.
Reze and International Assassins are literally the only "long" fights in the entire series. And Reze isn't even that long.
They aren't extending anything.

>>283074662
>Just let someone else take over drawing duties
Shut the fuck up, you dont know shit about art

>>283074652
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

Many such cases.

Reze chikita

H.I.T. ?

>>283074662
>The movie didn’t inspire Fujimoto whatsoever
I think the fight scene a few chapters ago might have been indirectly inspired by the movie. Like, Fuji remembered this is a shonen manga and added an action scene after 50 chapters.

Why women love CHADji?

>>283074733
Fuji will be a hack if he doesn't deliver with the Age of Devils.

Offscreened, prease understand I don't have Tatsu to help me with 70% of the page anymore
t. Fatjimoto

Maybe Asa agreeing to help Yoru after fighting Yuko can be seen as Asa's feelings towards her mother. Like,
>Okay, I'll help you kill so you can stop being awful
Is what I think Asa felt towards Yoru, after internalizing her mother murdering her father. Asa put so much faith in Yoru, and it really blew up in Asa's face. I'm very curious to see the direction Fujimoto is taking Asa's character, he hasn't written one like her ever before.

>>283074990

Damn.

If I went on Xitter and asked a Yoshida fan account what the point of his fucking character was, what do you think they would reply?

Like i think MAPPA overestimated the mass appeal of Chainsaw Man, but fuck, DRAGON Nakayama did a massive fuck up with anime that hurt the series because they didn't think the movie would perform ultra good like is doing now.

Oh he also knew of this woman that fucked everyone around and the only comment he got to that was "i guess shes a good girl after all". A man that doesnt judge, ever. Women took that to heart.

>>283075361
I think the worst thing Fujimoto ever drew was that one panel of Nayuta from normal life + where she looks like a fucked up goblin, but this is pretty close.

>>283075584
>It doesn't count

>>283075230
I think Yoru is on some level a manifestation of the toxic influence Asa's mother had on her life.
There is a world of difference between what Asa did and what her mother did when her father got injuried.
Asa was a 6- years old child lashing out at mistreatment, I doubt she even understood the full implications of her dad dying, she just wanted him gone from her life.
What her mother did was cold blooded murder, for petty and materialistic reasons.

Asa can't understand this difference, nor can she understand that her actions made no difference in his father's passing. Because Asa also yearned for her father to die she feels like an accomplice who is no different from her mother, her mother's actions replaced her own and they took reign over her entire life, which is the source of her crippling guilt and coping mechanism.

Now we return to Yoru, who claimed ownership over Asa's body, who takes over her leaving her as a spectator to her own life, whose actions replace her own, turning Asa once again in an accessory for murder. Asa can't stand against her mother/Yoru, because they are the ones who grant her life so they control her completely.

>Denji mentally cheated on Makima
This FIRST instance of SCUMji

>>283075741
>offscreened her getting popular
>offscreened her losing popularity
>both of these things impacted Asa's character in exactly zero ways
Do I need to have watched Big Lebowski to understand what Fujimoto meant by this plot line?

>>283075856
Who is the bigger whore, Reze covering her crotch but showing off her armpits or Makima doing the opposite?

>>283075859
Feels like fame would play a crucial role in Asa's development given how we learned how she intentionally fucks herself over because of the guilt of killing her dad. Like, doesn't that mean that Asa would constantly fuck up and tank her fame on purpose?
It's unbelievable how hard Fujimoto fucked up with Part 2.

>>283075843
This is the best comprehension of Asa's situation. It's intentionally written to be the case by Fujimoto. But how do you think Asa can escape this hell? I don't ask you to theory craft, just in a way that conveys Fujimoto's sentiments for Asa's character. For a while it felt like he truly hates her, but I don't think he's that much of an ass. Asa deserves better.

>>283075941
>he thinks any of this shit was planned beforehand

>>283075859
Because being famous and liking popularity was never part of Asa's character, while i can agree needed some scenes of her being famous during the CSM church arc. But that wasn't something important for character was more for getting more followers to join CSM church.

>>283075361
>MtF vs FtM

>>283075970
nta. Asa's backstory is foreshadowed well enough throughout the manga, explored in character moments, it can't be something Fujimoto came up with recently, this was planned.

>>283075941
>>283075970
The fame of Asa as devil hunter came from CSM church and Shiga using the media to create this image of super heroine, Asa herself almost had nothing to do with it.

>>283076016
He probably plans the main twists, but trying to relate 80% of what happens in the middle of the story to those is pointless.

>>283076016
Please explain how literally anything about her father cheating on her mother and her mother killing her father was "foreshadowed"

CSM Final chapter leaks
https://files.catbox.moe/kfxaai.jpg

>>283075976
You're an idiot, literally read the first chapter of part 2.

>>283076062
Prez killed Asa because she was mindbroken over Tanaka being in love with Asa. Prez saw it as cheating and killed Asa. A much more dull example I can think of is recently how Yoru killed the woman Denji was trying to save, because she thinks she's the only woman he will need.

>>283076083
Who is that? Apollo?

>>283076062
NTA but considering the truth it's now revealed means Asa tripping over multiple times and Yoru taking over and thinking the devil hunter cheating his wife with a co-worker is scum.

>>283076134
That's not foreshadowing. Asa didn't even react to Mr Tanaka liking her instead of Prez, she was just relived it wasn't her fault Bucky died. She wasn't even onscreen when Yoru killed that woman. It's like forcing a square peg into a round hole to find some tangentially related thing. Asa's writing sucks balls, like Denji licks ass.

>>283076123
She enjoyed the fame but doesn't mean her entire character revolved around that aspect, Asa was perfectly okay with not being popular but she wanted form relationships.

>>283075843
I wonder how the “children are their parents property” will come back to the plot. Yoru doing the same pose as Asa’s mom there feels like its foreshadowing for how Yoru will be defeated

>>283075959
In the most reduced form I can express.
If the story is to have positive development for both Asa and Denji in regards to their traumatic experiences with their parents. The logical thing is for Asa to reclaim ownership over herself, to gain autonomy over her actions and do what she believes to be right. Now through what means she'll achieve this, I don't know.

>>283076267
>[contradicts his last post] [shit I never said] [irrelevant to the discussion]

FC made more sense.

>>283076248
I find it funny how your YoshiAsa delusions died with Yoshida, 'chu.

>>283076577
>FC made more sense.
No it didn't and there's a reason why people have been saying that it wasn't happening since forever.

>>283076577
FC still hasn't been disproven. This chapter literally confirms that Asa has been lying to herself.

>>283076383
It feels different. I call back to Agni, for his childhood trauma, being Fire Punch almost became therapeutic, protecting Luna(Judah) and I know it's his way of coping but for Asa, Yoru in many ways corrupted and bastardized her emotions and feelings, it's how Asa can't look at intimacy or relationships the same again, I say all that because I don't see Fujimoto keeping Denji and Asa together, if Asa is truly going to survive. I think that Asa is stuck, unable to grow because Yoru has put her in a situation where she doesn't matter, so taking ownership of herself is an impossible task. Like Agni was suffering from flames, always trapped to be Fire Punch, Asa is trapped within Yoru. I hate that I had to reference Fire Punch to reply, but I just wanted to talk about how Fujimoto has handled a situation about losing identity before. Asa is going to need Yoru if she wants to be free.

>>283076642
>FC still hasn't been disproven. This chapter literally confirms that Asa has been lying to herself.

>>283076749
Neither are supposed to be realistic, they're ideas pushed to their philosophical extremes, Fujimoto understands that as a writer, you don't see it as a reader because you're stuck with searching for what's believable for you, instead of growing up and realizing people have different perspectives from your own.

>>283076866
hrt fuck him brain up

>>283076749
I find Asa to be quite believable and compelling.

Steamy love making with Himeno

I think Yoru's obsession with CSM and Denji is going to end when Asa confronts her. Like taking a look in the mirror, Yoru will be forced to see herself through Asa's gaze, how she sees the mother who terrified Asa, the woman who has abused her trust and body, a woman who is capable of love but forced to believe she's undeserving of that comfort. Asa truly accepted Yoru, not for sex, or power, or out of crippling need for companionship, she just accepted her like she accepted her mother, despite the fact that she was a horrible monster, I think Yoru will find more happiness in a relationship with Asa, than with Denji.

>>283076749
You have to do something to be compelling, not watch from the side. Are NPC's believable? No they just fill out the background.

These one shots directly lead to shart 2. by inflating his ego and making Fuji think he can get away with everything in his shonen comic because he's le genius auteur

>>283077135
Agreed—characters who just stand around reacting to events rarely feel compelling. In Chainsaw Man, the most memorable characters are the ones who take action, make messy decisions, or drive conflict forward. If a character is always on the sidelines, they're not much different from background NPCs—they exist, but they don't matter. Compelling characters have to do something, not just be there.

>>283077163

>>283077173
>the most memorable characters are the ones who take action, make messy decisions, or drive conflict forward.
Asa was exactly like that in the first arcs of Part 2. Then after Falling Fujimoto decided to turn her into a bystander.

Some of you pretended to be retarded long enough that you actually became retarded, sad.

>>283077351
I'll pretend to be a genius then

>But that wasn't something important for character
Given that the root of her trauma is that she feels complice of killing her dad, being a heroine who saves human lives shouldn't have been an important part of her character? As a form to atone for her self-perceived sin.

Adam = Denji
Eve = Asa
Everything will be "reset" at the end. No humans because Yoru's nuke would have wiped what's left of humanity away and no devils because Pochita will eat the Devil Devil, erasing even himself in the process. The earth will be almost barren besides Denji and Asa. Denji, the second Adam like Christ, and Asa will repopulate the earth through the power of sex.

AsaDen manga. YoshiAsa trannies can cope and seethe.

The children cry out for more Himmy

>>283077351
Any community that gets its laughs by pretending to be idiots will eventually be flooded by actual idiots who mistakenly believe thay they are in good company

>>283077456
This interpretation feels like a forced narrative with little to no real backing in the actual Chainsaw Man plot. While some fans like to draw symbolic parallels, the story hasn’t explicitly set up Denji as a “second Adam” or Asa as “Eve,” nor hinted at a literal reset of humanity through their relationship. The idea that Pochita would erase devils by eating the Devil Devil, or that the earth would be repopulated solely by them, feels like fan theory stretching beyond what the story supports. It seems like this idea mostly comes from trying to recreate the ending of Fire Punch rather than anything grounded in Chainsaw Man itself. Sometimes it’s better to let the plot unfold rather than imposing these heavy-handed symbolic readings without clear evidence.

Say it P. Say that FC can still work if Makima found Loliwar, erased her knowledge about herself being a devil for some reason, made her act like a human, made her grow at a normal human rate, healed her faceblindness and for some reason gave her in adoption to Momsa that just happens to look just like loliWar.

SAY IT

>>283077544
You are incorrectly assuming the two neurons Denji possesses work together

>>283077544
I'm still waiting to see what the thematic importance of Death is to the story. Part 1 was entirely about Denji's struggles for control, expressed through Makima. Part 2 is entirely about both but particularly Asa's struggles with internal war, expressed through Yoru.
Fami is too much of a minor character, but I wonder what'll be the thematic importance of Death if any. Both Denji and Asa had untimely deaths and cheated it through devil power to experience more out of life.

Sometimes I wish Part 2 as a bit more like a stereotypical shonen like Part 1, just a lil' bit. With characters overcoming situations through clever thinking and/or determination drawn from resolution of conflict in their personal lives.
I think there was a strong foundation with Asa being uniquely qualified to use the war devil's powers, I wish that was more present/relevant to the story beyond a potential super weapon made at the climax.

Asa’s character archetype appeals to westerners a lot more and the Japanese are more apathetic towards Part 2 as a whole for some reason (with sole exception of Nayuta running on Makima’a coattails)

>>283078132
Shut the fuck up. Makimafag or whoever you are.

>>283078332
I saw alot of nips posting AsaDen after last chapter
AsaDen and RezeDen had also a very tight poll on that japanese CSM profile, with PawaDen in third place

>>283078481
>Japanese are more apathetic towards Part 2 as a whole for some reason (with sole exception of Nayuta running on Makima’a coattails)
Nips seems to understand pretty well that the main draw of the manga is Conquest.

>>283078460
>I want to make Reze happy, I love her!
Idealistic infantile nonsense that happens only in your Chinese cartoons
>I guess Asa is the only one left, at least I'm not alone.
Real love grounded in actual reality

>>283078515
FC could be possible with an anime original ending if it doesn't happen in the manga

>>283078617
Then why they never made her win a single popularity poll?

>>283078550
>The more I think about it, the more likely FC theory is real

>>283078629
>at least I'm not alone
>Real love
You've only been in toxic relationships, haven't you

>>283078640
I guess Denji is far from the main draw of the manga with your logic

>>283078523
AsaDen may be the epilogue but YoruDen was the story

>>283078569
You know i can see Denji being a normal hunter and doing these type of things if he could.

>>283078671
Real as in realistic. RezeDen works because it’s a fantasy that ends in tragedy, like Titanic
AsaDen works because it’s a realistic relationship between flawed human beings with their ups and downs

>>283078686
The main draw of the manga is sexy women, yes
Just like Rock never won a Black Lagoon popularity poll

Power won 2 popularity polls and Reze won 1, makima never won any so how can the JP fanbase only care about her? Niggle me this

>>283078686
>I guess Denji is far from the main draw of the manga
He's not

FC is canon and you will apologize

>>283078748
>The main draw of the manga is sexy women, yes
Why did Aki beat Denji and win the most important poll?

>>283078748
>The main draw of the manga is sexy women
Good thing nips agree Makima is the most sexy women

>>283078748
>The main draw of the manga is sexy women, yes

>>283078748
Poowerkek is retarded and he fails to realize men voted Makima and women voted Aki.

>>283078748
>Power won 2 popularity polls
Pee... power lost to Makima the moment she got one shot by her....

>>283078817
>Doesnt seem like it
God lord P, this poll really mindbroke your neet ass huh...

>>283078738
Fujimoto is actually pretty Aka-pilled when it comes to romance when you think about it

>>283078817
>Fujo interference
The main draw isnt sexy women then

>>283078819
>>283078834
Makima never won first place, Power did
Its pretty simple discordbros, Japan does not care about makima

Any post replying to this is just cope btw

>>283078849

Okay…
>>283078856
It is

Huh yeah? >>283078849

>>283078834
The source of all his anal pain...

>>283078862
Japan cares quite a bit about Makima, she just isn't the main draw like Aki and Power are.

>>283078862
Also, >>283078817
is a western Viz poll, not Japanese.

>>283078441
Asa and Denji will prevail!

>Japan does not care about makima
Then why do they make the most fanart out of her? pretty flawed logic desu

The poll always break makimafags kek

>>283078885
Pee she had 7k votes more than Power in that poll
>BUT FIRST PLACE
You said earlier the draw of the manga is girls
She's the girl with the most votes


Also I find it hilarious how much you leech of polls for someone who pretends to be "above normalfags"
You can't even defend your favorite character without hiding behind an ad populum, lest you admit she's comedic relief with no depth or storytelling value

>>283078885
>Confuses Denji with a tree
>Confuses Aki with a woman
Pclown...

I kinda stopped believing in the FC theory when it was shown that Yoru loves America. If Asa is Yoru, that's kinda NTR ngtl

>>283078896
Makima was a bigger draw than Power by the end of Part 1

>>283078902
>The Viz poll
Nobody cares about a poll in which only 15 people voted you know?

The last chapter was great, but I genuinely have no clue where we go from here.
Even less so than usual.
Normally
>Idk where the fuck we go from here
Has some sense of direction. Like Nukes coming back, you could still guess the general direction.
But with Asa and Denji having this talk, I genuinely can't imagine what the fuck we do next.

>>283078896
Is that why Makima defeated Powy in the poll, P?

>>283078963
Watch the friendly fire. I'm pointing out he posted a Viz poll then talks about the Japanese

>>283078888
>>283078914
>>283078917
>>283078921
Uh oh
Thats a melty
Sorry makimabros, facts dont care about your feelings. Japan only cares about Power and Aki. Makima never won and never will win a popularity poll

Asa is dead. That's why we are in the alley in the first place

>>283078946
Dollllls’ AsaDen is very pretty but her Asa acts more like Yoru than Asa. I wish she would draw more though

>>283078946
Took you a while but at least you got there can't say the same about certain individuals.

>>283078985
Well Yoru still needs to be stopped.
Denji is still in Pochita form.
And we still have 1 month until Nostradamus, and we still don't know what that is.
Also we still don't know Death's 3 plans, but we can assume Barem + Yoshida's "deaths" are one of the plans

Imagine Homelander just destroying Yoru's pussy...

>>283078963
>>283078995
>melting down so hard they are trashing eachother

>>283078999

imagine WANTING your character to appeal to the lowest common denominator

>>283078946
Yoru was either being Tsundere as us usual or just high on nuke roids. You can bet your life saving on her still loving Denji the next time they interact

The poll always break P KEK

>>283079063
There’s nothing to argue
Makima never won, Power did
Its a plain fact

>There’s nothing to argue
if japs don't care about makima then why is she the character with the most fanarts from the manga? Fanart is the best way to show how dedicated fans are

I don't care about Makima.

Power
Losing to Makima

>>283079169
>animeonlies
Don't exist. The anime didn't moved the sales an inch, it's all mangafags in japan.

>>283079105
>Its a plain fact
Talking about plain facts. Makima got more votes than Powy. Meaning that Makima won and Powy lost.

Problem?

>>283079169
Manga readers love Reze too. She ranked top 5 in both of the previous polls after all.

>>283079133
I told P many times that Power played no role in the Reze arc but he wouldn't listen to a scholar...

>>283079201
>Don't exist. The anime didn't moved the sales an inch
... which proves just how many animeonlies there are, you dumb fuck

>>283079213
The last major poll was mid-end part 1. Yes tons of manga readers knew about her because of her arc being right then.
Times have obviously changed significantly since.
The movie has little impact on her in the poll.

>>283079133
>No powy in the top10
Makima got position 2 and 4

That explains it.

>>283079169
This
I don't understand why so many people assume everyone will vote reze, it's obviously a poll of 90% manga readers, so every character has a chance

>>283079228
I'm surprised Beam isn't there

>>283079230
Damn you are retarded, i shouldn't bother.

>>283079228

>>283079258
>He thinks everyone who watches the movie has read the manga
Don't bother explaining.
You would embarrass yourself.

>>283079249
All manga readers will watch the movie and fall in love with reze again, god why is /csm/ so full of morons and autists? It's like you don't know how human minds work

Ok, i don't care about schizo waifu war. So to change the topic, how do you think Denji, Asa, Aki and Kobeni would fare if they were in Silent Hill?

>>283079249
>it's obviously a poll of 90% manga readers
and 90% of those just watched the Reze movie so they will likely vote either Reze/Aki/Makima/Denji.

>>283079310
Also i forgot to mention Reze as well.

>>283079308
>All manga readers will watch the movie and fall in love with reze again
The poll has been up for a month
I voted like 5 other characters in the meantime, several times each

>>283079298
That's right. They know how Part 1 is good and Part 2 is shit, so they won't buy Part 2

>>283078985
I think we'll return to Yoru vs Chita and Yoru will bring out a secret weapon that'll intensify the fight, something like Nukes. I think Asa and Denji will continue talking after that.

>>283079310
Aki gets out, the other 3 job.

>>283079199
It can't be iconic if it doesn't happen.

Makima is the only character that has a slim chance of ranking over Reze, but she is for sure ranking second.
I genuinely won't be surprised if Power doesn't crack top 5, I think she is the least popular out of the main 4 now, though it may still be Pee's selfinsert kekji

Can you imagine Berserk without Griffith? Not in the sense of "what if he never existed" but in the sense he dies and the story continues without him.

I really can't. When people is asked who they think is the best character in Berserk (from a writting pov) Griffith is usually the answer.

Asa...

>>283080208
Last chapter actually shed a light on that, do you think that the reason Asa doesn't lash out in jealously is because she is so utterly terrified of her mother crushing her father's skull with a stone over adultery that she refuses to bring it up?

But Fujimoto turned it into such an ugly relationship.

>>283080257
Asa is of the type that self-sabotages because she thinks she doesn't derseve anything good, so being keked by Yoru must be something that she finds acceptable

>>283080322
>>283080350
Fujimoto just went with the very realistic depiction that two broken people create a broken relationship.

>>283080322
It's because Fujimoto has an ugly soul and can't write cute, sweet romance because he's never experienced one himself.

>>283080257
>>283080350
Cuck fetishism comes from insecurity and from the belief that you deserve to be mistreated and betrayed

>>283080373
Watch Look Back

>>283080322
It's for the best. Asa can never replace Reze, Makima, or Power. If he's going to shove Asa down his readers throats and make her a love interest, then he's going to humiliate her.

>>283080322
Asa and Denji are two people with negative self-worth being led around by a narcistic sociopathic devil. It's a recipe for disaster.

People that took their interaction last chapter as something positive need their eyes checked, they are reinforcing each other that they are horrible people that don't deserve happiness.

Yes.
>...that don't deserve happiness.
No. Asa asked whether she was a bad person. Denji said he was a good person despite him being worse than her and killing his dad. Based on her reaction, Asa seemingly accepts this. This exchange suggests that they see themselves as good people (and, by implication, deserving of happiness) despite the evils they do.

At this rate, it might get to 150M-160M best case.

80M max in Asia and 80M in NA, SA, and EU combinded

>>283080611
Bretty good
However I want to up the stakes
I bet on 150 millions or bust

>>283077994
Can you stop talking about my wife?

>>283080678
>>283080685
150 milly... the crowning achievement of the entire human race...

>>283080350
That scene used to be funny...
Part 2 is even more bleak on a reread.

>>283080663
Irrelevant tragic backstory bait

What will Aki and Power think if they see the Denji of the present?

>>283080486
Its ok Yorubro, getting cucked by Yoru sounds fun.

>>283080462

Trick question.
If they appeared in Part 2 they would be braindead like everyone else.

>>283080624
>This exchange suggests that they see themselves as good people (and, by implication, deserving of happiness)
Nah, they are just coping by making a joke. I saw a lot of retards saying that now Asa and Denji got all their mental problems healed because of that single joke in the last page. Full:
>WOZA THEY FIXED EACH OTHER
>ASADEN ENDGAM
This doesn't work like that.

>>283080860
Sounds familiar...

>>283080611
I'm all in on 200M.
100M in the East and 100M in the West.

>>283080905
Scholar...

>>283080322
Part 2 is an ugly story. There's no hope or kindness to be found anywhere.

>>283080740
Aki would be seriously disappointed, but he is a good man so will try to help Denji anyway.

Power doesn't have the ability to think.

>>283080905
>That bet
What the FUCK could you possibly have

>>283080740
Realistically they would wonder what happened to Denji and realize that he didn't have it good in the future.

>>283080965
Pride, something many here don't have

>>283080905
+100M north and 100M south

>>283080897
The scholar guide does it again

>>283080988
Chadji looks quite studly here

>>283080854
She is so sexy ToT

My personal part2 fav top 8

Nayuta
Asa
Yoru
Pochita
Barem
Famine
Death
Fumiko

PD: Asa was below Barem 2 chapters ago.

>>283080988
It's supposed to be dramatic, but Denji tanking the explosion, rising from the rubble like a revenant, seeing Yoshida laying dead like Peter Griffin and all of that leading to this fucking panel will always be the most comedic moment in csm for me

>>283081036
For me, it's
Yoru
Fami
Fumiko
Death
Barem
Nayuta
Asa
Falling

>>283081036
Zased

>>283081062
Its like pottery.

>>283081036
>>283081072
I stand by my ranking of 2 weeks ago
I had invested in Asacoins because it's since the start of part 2 she clearly has some depth, it was just paced badly.
Nayuta is cute, but could have been used better

>>283080322
I hope Denji can learn to let Asa be happy with another man who’s better for her, and can pleasure her sexually in a way that his 2cm micro penis never could. And I hope he watches as it happens, and it makes him happy to be a part of her happiness.

>>283081072
Seems like we like Yoru.
>>283081102
>Nayuta is cute, but could have been used better
As a Makichad I will always put Nayuta at top but its true that Fujimoto wasted her potential, like most things in part2.

>>283081036
Asa
Death
Barem
Yoru
Nayuta
Yuko
Falling
Fumiko

For me, if we're talking exclusively about Part 2 characters.
If it's both parts overall then

Aki
Asa
Makima
Denji
Kishibe
Kobeni
Death
Pochita

Haven't caught up to the manga for 2 years, Asa victory status?

>>283081036
Mine is
Asa
Denji - Pochita
Yoru
Barem
Fumiko
Death
Famine
Yoshida

>>283081206
Received 2 chapters of development after 80 of being less than a side character

I'm surprised to see Fumiko so low ranking
I think she quite interesting, certainly more than falling or famine
Is it because she let Nayuta die? Be honest

>>283081206
Denied

>>283081062
It is dramatic and also super comedic, overall such moments never overstay nor are explained or artificially heightened. Scene can be read in many ways, pt2 has that "raw experience" quality, pt1 not so much, its much more directed for the viewer.

>>283081197
Seems like we like Asa.

>If it's both parts overall then...
I think my overall top 3 would also be about those 3, with a slightly different order.

1Makima
2Aki
3Asa

>>283081251
Personally I find her role in the story confusing.
Yoshida doesn't even register for me because I don't even understand what his character is even supposed to be.

>>283081251
Shes amazing

>>283081251
>low
By what? ANons here? Fumiko is one of my favorites. But we barely see her compared to others I like. If she was around more I'd like her way more

I can't even come up with 8 characters I like in part 2...

>>283081302
Japan...

>>283081251
I want more of her

>>283081188
Surprisingly high amount of cosplayers.
Some pretty good Bomb Hybrid ones too.
Hybrids in general are the most fun designs of CSM as a whole.

>>283081251
I didn't even like Fumiko before Fuji revealed part of her backstory with the STD devil. But I like her now. She is definitely more interesting than Falling but I love Famine more because of the memes and horsefu bias.

>Is it because she let Nayuta die? Be honest
Nah, consider my high rating of Barem as proof of that.

>>283077516
>YOU'RE FUCKING BLACK
Woah. . .Why would the pot say that?

>>283081206
>Asa victory status?
Just begun.

>>283081302
Grim, maybe try a top4? kek.

>>283081302

Zero mangas dropped man, i kneel

See him spam f5 in the catalogue waiting for the drump thread in 2 weeks

>>283081428
Kettle had it coming.

>>283081302
I struggled too. I added Asa and Falling just to have 8...

>>283081302
Same. Asa has potential, but she's boring because she barely does anything. I can't say that I like her. Nayuta was cute, but that's it. The rest of the characters I don't care about one bit.

>>283081251
Are you serious? She's a non character with negative charisma

Good Night /csm/
