Tatsuki Fujimoto 's manga , Chainsaw Man , is not only making waves on social media, but also on streaming platforms. A common mistake Crunchyroll makes with every major release is failing to prepare its servers for the expected influx of people logging into the service simultaneously to watch the episode.
And it happened again today when the first episode of the Chainsaw Man was released.

Synopsis:
The story takes place in a world where demons are born from human fears. While they are generally dangerous and malevolent, humans can form contracts with demons to harness some of their power. Denji is a depressed young man trying to repay his late 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, who resembles a chainsaw and assists Denji in his work.
Fujimoto launched the manga in Weekly Shonen Jump in December 2018, finishing the first arc in December 2020 with 11 volumes.
