On the other hand, they did shoot a HIMARS at the captured Azov Nazis
That's an edit of Chainsaw Man, no idea where the edit came from but the original art is the Volume 1 cover or something like that.
I thought it was something from the No Guns Life manga but I'm sure it's not the only series where people have giant weapons for heads. https://www.fuwafuwanosora.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/2083536_English_KeyArt-OfficialVideoImage_906ca3b8-02f6-e911-82a8-dd291e252010.jpg
I would bet money that they only like Chainsaw Man because he

erased people's memory of the holocaust
It is a lot less suspicious than it sounds
spoilers for the manga
Devils are embodiments of concepts. The chainsaw devil has a special ability where if it eats another devil the concept is erased. This is revealed towards the end of the series, and one of the devils eaten was the nazi devil. Also ate things such as AIDS and nuclear weapons. How it works exactly is unclear, but after a concept has been erased it stops existing and all memory of it also disappears.

and WW2 in general probably. the manga takes place in the late 90's but the USSR still exists, probably a result of the nazis as well as nukes being erased from reality

Wait this is all background? So the protagonist doesn’t actively cancel the holocaust in the series? It’s just part of the alt-reality?
All that happened before Denji becomes chainsawman, yes. It doesn't really have much impact on the plot until the reveal.
but he is also at least indirectly the reason the USSR did not collapse
Treating specific military weapons with celebrity-like worship has got to be the most weird things anyone can do.
Excited for a future generation of Soldier-Priests who treat the AR-15 like modern Christians treat the cross.
Haven't the russians shot down a decent number of HIMARS missiles? What's up with this deifying of any western weapon that has any success anywhere?
By the most Ukraine-friendly read on the situation that's still tethered to reality, it's a stalemate. So folks who want to belive Ukraine will somehow drive Russia back to the pre-war borders need to believe in some game changer.
I keep seeing articles that read "What will Vladimir Putin do when the Ukrainians invade Moscow?" It is pure Bazinga brain online right now. The amount of misinformation would make Baghdad Bob weep.
Tomorrow HIMARS will be sold to the Russians by some Ukrainian officer who would rather losse the war and be rich than loose the war and be poor.
Very cool that they're depicting their newest weapon system destroying civilians.
