After i finished reading this chapter and arc on the manga, my thoughts were how they were gonna do it animated. It's kinda a "turning point" on the series that stuff are gonna go down after this and it'll change the story forever. Seeing it animated was amazing, even tho i knew what was gonna happen, it still left me in shock. I want to give a huge shoutout on those who worked on Chainsaw Man, even tho it's still in the beginning, you can see how much effort they put and give the series the cinematic tone it has like on the manga and there's no other studio and team that coulda done it better.
Before all the madness happened, I love how the 3 characters, Denji, Aki and Power seem very comfortable with each other now in a way that they seem like siblings. Even tho Himeno wasn't in that many episodes, we can see how big of a impact she is in Aki's devil hunting career and how greatly it'll affect Aki after all of this is over, the way they give glimpse of flashbacks throughout the episodes help us have a insight on why Himeno wanted to sacrifice herself for Aki.
This is also the introduction of Katana Man and they already made him look sinister, especially knowing that he's the grandson of the Yakuza that owned Denji.
