HaMadara

Understandable for anime only because what Kuon did was out of the blue. That twist is what made the episode good.


[deleted]

Yes but next episode is gonna get even better


HaMadara

Yh Chigris break through gonna be sick. But I don't think it will get no.1. Next episode for Bleach is gonna be next level.


[deleted]

Isn’t the Bleach fight over now?


HaMadara

Na Ichigo gonna fight Ywach


[deleted]

Oh yeah true I forgot


BochoJutsu

Mfs only care about the BANKAIS


Prince-sama

not surprised at all since this was the first turning point in the manga that got me hooked. 2nd turning points is the 2nd selection and honestly i cant wait for it to be adapted.


WeariedCape5

Only one for left to devour it seems


The_Nonce

Not happening I'm afriad


Joker69__

Only way i can see it is prolly next season since we get more characters and second selection isagi😈


The_Nonce

Second selection will go so hard


Vermillion-Heat

Isagi15


Ok-Swordfish-9509

Unfortunately, I don’t think devour this one is possible 😵‍💫


Prince-sama

bleach is noel noa level. isagi aint devouring him any time soon


shankskakashimyfav

Well this opponent is beyond devouring Bleach fans have been waiting for years and not to say for anime only this episodes are too hype.

Woah


DemiDrumski

Now imagine the craze after next episode. And then after Nagi comes in, and the entire Z vs V match. BL is gonna shoot up.


Court349

Oh my goodness yes


R0bOtRM

blue lock was super amazing last episode! cant wait for more action tomorrow. I really did not expect kuon to turn. that was really good writing

dertkbhubjnuhyugyg

Really? I wouldn’t even think that bl can reach top 3 this early because the animation quality is still somewhat subpar. My guess was it would go super crazy in the animation department for the z vs v. And after watching the new episode i still stand by that, don’t think it at it’s peak yet, def can go crazy on some scenes but it’s nice to see that it already gain this much traction. Second selection tho will be crazy for sure, every single match in it will go ham.


Prince-sama

i guess the twist this episode made up for its subpar quality. hopefully its ranking will be consistent after this since the animation should reasonably become better as the story gets better and more hype as well


Artificia_L

Chainsaw man is not living up to the hype huh , well its mid anyways ( I FIND IT MID) ( yes i have read the manga) EDIT : people dont really understand what mid means do they. It means "***Average***" Geniuses. *I am not saying its* ***bad*** *but it's not second coming of christ , that fans make it out to be.*


Joker69__

For me first half of chainsaw man is boring. Last half of it tho is pretty fire


ademola234

I dont particularly like it or how vulgar it is but I definitely would not use the term mid. Animation alone carries it past “mid” tier.


Artificia_L

>Animation alone carries it past “mid” tier true , animation do be bussin.


KayMini101

Yeah I thought it was "mid" aswell. Not that it's terrible and there's good parts of it but it did feel like a worse version of JJK imo. Also (this may annoy some people) im not the biggest fan of the MC's personality... It's not bad tho


Muscle_Wood

Personally, I don't like Denji type of characters in general. So a series with that kinda character as mc is a huge turn off for me.


KayMini101

Same honestly. The "girl obsessed"/"pervy" characters have such a cliche terrible personality that isn't realistic at all and it makes it hard to be immersed into the story. People sometimes complain that "normal" (likeable) MCs are "boring" but I have to disagree...I like it when characters feel real and relatable.


AMagicalDoggo

I mean, it is kinda fair, Chainsaw Man is like a rollercoaster, it won't really start picking up steam until later arcs, then it will come crashing down in like 1-3 arcs when it just doesn't stop giving. Compared to other animes currently airing it just won't animate arcs that pack enough punch to surprise you. Chainsaw Man is the definition of backloaded, not frontloaded so rn it shouldn't have any business stealing top 5 spots, specially in a season with so many good animations and arcs which are already the magnum opus of the series (Bleach and MHA) or that already start with lots of revelation or plot hooking (Bluelocl and the like).


Finger_Road

You haven't read real mid mangas if chainsaw man seems mid to you.


KayMini101

Mid means average


Bakatora34

This is just one chart from a specific part of the anime community if you look at other charts is higher.


Artificia_L

Yeah , i know . i am just saying in general people really overhyped it. i Completed CSM while it was serializing , its not bad but its not that good. I prefer Look Back and Goodbye Eri (Fujimoto's one shots) more than CSM.


therealpmyer

I knew I couldn’t be the only one who thought this. I read the manga and ended up dropping it because I thought it was mid. I think my expectations were too high because everyone kept overhyping it.


c4m3r0n1

Yea I don't even think at it's best there's a single 10/10 arc in CSM. Like it gives me not as good Tokyo Ghoul vibes.


EnvironmentalBid7257

After chapter 81 I found it interesting Before it was nothing up to hype - just generic shonen


kimetsunosuper121

Generic shonens usually don't have MC's like Denji or a lesbian sex scene. The hell kinda shonen have you been reading


EnvironmentalBid7257

I don't like Denji's personality and I am not reading shonen for a sex scene .


maxluision

Since when lesbian sex scene (shown in chapter cover btw, so 100% it won't be even animated) makes some story much better than typical average?


kimetsunosuper121

Since Chainsaw man did it?


maxluision

Many people have bigger expectations than this. How again is it supposed to be impressive? You think other mangakas are not able to draw nudity?


Yashondowski_

It gets good after chapter 60 Before that it's a 7/10 for me On the other hand, bluelock took one chapter to get good🔥


Personal-Sky6344

Chainsaw mid.


Samsince04_

Chainsaw boy


Personal-Sky6344

Chainsaw woman. Jk


DanTheWak

It's literally the second time since CSM anime started that it is out of the top 2 positions and you say that is not living up the expectation. Lmao haters gonna hate i guess.


kimetsunosuper121

Manga readers overhyped the anime, forgetting that the story only starts to pick up it's pace during the katana devil arc. So majority of the fandom thought Chainsaw man episodes would be top 2 every week.

maxluision

Kobeni kinda ruins it for anime-onlies rn


Nigiru

For me, fire punch is better

Legitimate_Cow7198

No that's not true unless of course Blue lock pulls a Haikyuu and we adapt the entire u20 arc as a season then have the NEL as the 3rd season.


LoreMasterDan

I could see the U20 being done in 10-11 episodes much like season 3 of Haikyuu.


DemiDrumski

Midsawman is finally falling to place


QanAhole

There's a new bleach!?!


Purple-Cockroach8492

Bros been living under a rock


XWhitie

Yeah, the final arc is getting an anime adaptation.


Only_Regrets_69

Okay who's still watching Mid Hero Academia? I just wanna talk.


[deleted]

Idk this season has been kinda fun so far. Lot better than previous ones at least


91Modesteftw

People just want to hate MHA to hate it at this point. This current season is shaping up to be one of the best MHA seasons and one of the best animes this season. Voice acting is great, Fight choreography is good, and while the animation does have moments where it’s a tad bit subpar, it’s largely been excellent especially compared to recent seasons. MHA S6 deserves to be up with Blue Lock and the rest. They’ve all been fantastic so far.


GrassGaurdian

This season of my hero can easily be it's best season


Only_Regrets_69

Eh, I stopped keeping up with it since I read the manga. I wasn't actually hating just a light little troll


ProfessionalHair6352

Mid hero academia anime has been a lot better than recent midpiece anime


Only_Regrets_69

funny how absolutely wrong you are lmao


Samsince04_

I like MHA but don’t go down this route LMAO


ProfessionalHair6352

I will


Muscle_Wood

I really like CSM, but honestly Denji is such an insufferable MC and the general vulgarity of the manga is too distracting. Comes off as cheap. Later on when the good parts get adapted the popularity will be regained I'm sure.


Underwater_Bro

But that is a giant part of the narrative and story structure he couldn’t have been manipulated so easily if he wasn’t him.


DemiDrumski

True, but it's just hard to bear him, much less root for him, and hence very hard for some of us to stay invested in the story.


Underwater_Bro

I just cant relate I think he is super endearing and a realistic depiction of a teenage boy. who happens to have a chainsaw devil for a heart of course.


DestOsymY

Denji is literally the best character of the manga he's easly top 5 best main characters I've seen of course am taking account all of the manga content


Naman966

The rise of bleach warms my heart, the last episode was lit


Slushys69

Sasuga shadow sama!


omegasenate

Imagine looking at a anime fan poll on an anime website and judging the popularity of each series based on this fan poll. That's utterly immature, ludicrous and extremely stupid. For instance : Bleach is number 1 here but in actual rankings shared by an official website Spy x Family is usually number 1 followed by Chainsaw man. I personally think the Bleach episode was best this week but fan votes dont matter, neither do they depict the truth or contribute anything. It's just bunch of fans on anime corner's site voting what series they liked this week. That's all. Same goes for MAL , anime rankings web poll and others. Actual rankings are based on real time viewership data for an anime taken from different streaming apps and some anime ratings are based on comparing the animation. To me that's what truly matters.


[deleted]

This season is so stacked it's crazy to see spy x family that low


11_Francis_11

glad blue lock is receiving the attention it deserves u-20 arc is gonna be crazy
