The Japanese website Myjitsu published an article compiling negative reactions from viewers regarding the anime adaptation of Chainsaw Man , specifically concerning the actions of Denji , the protagonist. It turns out that the latest episodes included several fan-service scenes, but instead of being simply a comedic take on the manga, the anime seemed too realistic to some, including feminists.

The discussion took on incredible proportions on the blue bird social network :
"How can anyone watch a series where women are objects used to satisfy the protagonist's desires?"
"Denji is the worst person a woman could have, that's why he can't get anyone."
"Makima's scene demonstrated just how much of a jerk Denji is."
"It's incredible how the work does everything to make eroticism happen, simply disgusting."
"I have no doubt that the protagonist will sleep with someone by the end."
"The guy's goal is to sleep with a woman, disgusting, that's all."
"As a woman, I feel offended by the protagonist's objective."
"How can a work like this be successful worldwide? The world is lost, full of teenagers and men who only want to use women to satisfy their desires."
"Honestly, I hope Denji dies."
"I am a single mother precisely because of these men."
"Seriously, is no one going to cancel Chainsaw Man? This work is so wrong in every way."
"Denji perfectly represents the virginity of a young teenager, which is why they never get involved with anyone."

Synopsis:
The story takes place in a world where demons are born from human fears. Although they are generally dangerous and malevolent, humans can make contracts with demons to use a portion of their power. Denji is a depressed young man trying to pay off his deceased father's debt to the yakuza by selling several of his organs and working as a demon hunter. Denji also possesses a dog-like demon named Pochita, which resembles a chainsaw and assists Denji in his work.
Fujimoto launched the manga Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in December 2018, finishing the first arc in December 2020 with 11 volumes. The second part of the manga is currently being released weekly.
