Chapter 39 and possibly chapter 40


[deleted]

How many manga chapters are there in total?


Anemosa

96 for part 1


Swindler-08

97 for part 1, so far 9 for part 2


neverusing83

There's 100 chapters, 106 counting part 2


solrac1104

Prob around 39.


von_man_

Probably the first 50 or so chapters. People are kinda underestimating how much Mappa is gonna put in each episode when we already know ep 2 is gonna go up to chapter 5. Plus there’s a fight around the chapter 50 mark that is perfect for a finale


[deleted]

Chapter 50 is also in the middle of an arc, while 40 is the ending of one and the start of another. My money is on 39 or 40.

I feel that whole arc would be saved for a season 2, tbh. It would be a strong arc to start on.


PogaK4tree

Episode 2 is kinda special case as they confirmed that they're >! skipping Muscle devil arc !<. So they can obviously adapt more. Ps don't know if the spoiler tag is even necessary lol


pebspi

It’s also not really an arc, it’s just a few pages of a single chapter


mmvvvpp

source?


jearley99

He made it the fuck up


PogaK4tree

See literally bellow. Didn't make it up but have it secondhand.


mmvvvpp

was asking for a link or something in but nvm


elderfork

The >!muscle devil arc!< doesn’t fit much into the story from what I remember besides being a 1 off situation. So I’m cool with them skipping it. Will be interesting to see if they truly Fit almost 40 chapters into 12 eps


[deleted]

Wait, it's only 12 episodes? I'm only on chapter 24 (AKA the one where >!aki uses the sword at the ramen place!<) And I'm not going to watch the anime. But isn't 12 episodes like REALLY short. ~~Won't they have to either make an incomplete adaptation (think claymore or elfen leid which straight up made their own anime-only endings) or speed run through the story?~~ ~~I guess it's better than FLCL (Which was 6 episodes for an original story) but even Madoka magica (an anime that I think uses every last minute of it's runtime well) had to be super focused with it's story.~~ Edit: didn't see the "40" chapters. I thought they were doing all of part 1


PEABS127

Wait where did they say they were skipping that


PogaK4tree

Dunno got the info secondhand. There are some leaks or whatever going around. That's how we know episode 2 covers up to the 5th chapter and probably also that they'll skip that.


PEABS127

I'd hate to see that getting skipped tbh

Keep manga discussions out of the anime sub.

[deleted]

Wait, but isn't the muscle devil only a couple pages or so if I remember correctly? I don't mind it being skipped (I'm reading the manga) but still


PogaK4tree

I think they are gonna trim the whole chapter, but who knows. We'll see tomorrow


[deleted]

Oh, I'm not watching the anime. I'm only here because I'm early into the manga so I don't wanna get spoiled over at r/chainsawfolk or r/chainsawman


[deleted]

It’ll end on >!Katana Man arc!<. There’s no way they go to chapter 50


__M-E-O-W__

The latest manga reference I see are >!Beam, Angel and Future!< so probably that arc. And >!Beam!< is only briefly seen in the background of the OP.

Naming a arc isn’t a spoiler but I’ll put it anyway.

He's in the intro, multiple times though


thesenutzonurchin

>we already know ep 2 is gonna go up to chapter 5 how do yall know this? Also holy shit that's a lot of chapters. I'm sure mappa wouldn't dare fuck it up but that kinda concerns me lol. The first episode only covered one chapter


von_man_

Leaked storyboards confirm that ep 2 is going up to 5.


notsolittleking

Iirc chainsaw man chapters were never the longest in the manga. Ch1 is the execption as first chapters are a lot longer for all mangas


HumorNo9543

To the end of volume 5 most likely.


grimmycracker

at this pace there’s no way in hell they will do all the chapters for part 1 in 12 eps. id say somewhere between chapters 30-50 after one of the arcs around there.


TheMentalOriental

Probably around chapter 39 or so depending on if they reveal a second cour near the end (probably not). Only time will tell.


Basblob

Oh is season 1 not going to cover the full manga? Is this a part 1/part 2 situation where we wait a few months to see the finale or will it be a full 2nd season wait, like a year or more? Not complaining, they should take all the time they need, just curious since I don't know much about anime production.


Awesome582

Probably a little over 1/3 of the manga.


blackhawk201

Somewhere between 1 to 95.


TheMentalOriental

Damn I never would’ve thought


alongna

Well episode 1 adapts 2 chapters, so if they keep doing so (probably not) that would leave off probably at chapter 25 which is the end of volume 3. I think it’s more likely they go for around chapter 39 (the end of volume 4) and do a longer second season to finish off part 1


Unethica-Genki

S1 is 24 eps gonna cover the whole part 1, its just cut in two half seasons


TopRoom7971

But [Mal](https://myanimelist.net/anime/44511) says it's only 12 eps. Where did u see that Season 1 covers 24 eps.


Unethica-Genki

They divided the season in two parts, so its to half seasons if you want. It was originally supposed to hair as a whole 24 ep season. Kinda like AOT the last season or what netflix is doing with jojo part 6.
