チェンソーマン 6 [Chainsaw Man 6] by Tatsuki Fujimoto

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Honestly this is going the same way a lot of Shōnen manga go and not unexpectedly either. The genre's target is teenaged boys (Hence Bomb being naked on the cover even if she's not in the manga, because why not institutionalize misogyny right out of the gate) It follows the typical pattern our heroes fight, get beat, train fight better and win.

So yeah lots of action and very little plot. Me not being a teenager regardless of gender identity, it bores me quick (much as Naruto and Bleach did too, started out with interest and some plot that fritters away) Don't get me wrong, if you want a lot of action and amputations, you'll get in this. I still feel sorry for Denji on occasion like when he asks why does no one want HIS heart, all they want is the devil heart inside him. You're reminded that he is a boy who grew up devoid of love (and education and boy does that show). All of the devil hunters have hard short lives. For the me that's the more interesting part.

The art is great as always. So I guess as long as my library keeps stocking it, I'll keep reading it but this is not one I'd add to my personal library.
