I could sorta deal with Chainsaw Man; but what's the fucking deal with Fire Punch?

    what's wrong with it? as someone who's read a LOT of manga since they were a kid, I'd say that fujimoto is pretty good as far as mangaka go. it's absurd, it's fun, it doesnt take itself too seriously, and at the end of the day, I don't read manga for any meaning other than entertainment and don't try to draw too much from it.

    someone on a reddit discussion said it best in regards to chainsawman - its like a movie, just nonstop action and fujimoto doesn't pull any punches.

    and i'd say the art is pretty good too. lemme tell ya, atleast you're not reading filler shonen trash that forgets its plotline every 20 chapters

    edit: and the ecchi... yeah... that's just japanese culture i guess, i dunno lol. i've become pretty desensitized to it, almost every other anime and manga has fanservice shoehorned into it at this point. don't let it deter you from enjoying a good story imo, but i can see how it can definitely detract from it.

      the early chapters with the sexual violence and incest made it really gross, but it gets past it pretty quickly.
