It's a series that takes awhile to digest
I believe it's chapter 42, which will overlap with the ending a little, but there are a few details different.Like it is straight up softcore hentai.
I was bewildered about Chainsaw Man sneaking a rather explicit sex scene in on a double-spread, but the stuff in the tweet was straight up 8 pages worth of porn.
Edit to avoid double post:
To people familiar with NANA manga, where do I pick up from where the anime stops?
Thanks for the heads up, will try to stop at 80I believe it's chapter 42, which will overlap with the ending a little, but there are a few details different.
And I will also recommended you end at chapter 80 instead of going all the way to the end of the manga as the manga never did get finished and 80 is about the best stopping point I can think of for it for what we have, but I doubt you will be able to resist the few more chapters you have :P
I will also note that reading before 42 wouldn't be the worst as a lot of chapters have bonus bits that cross over with the author's previous work and other extra info and what not via Junko's room.
I have actually been reading it for a couple of days now. I am in the mid 50s.I will also note that reading before 42 wouldn't be the worst as a lot of chapters have bonus bits that cross over with the author's previous work and other extra info and what not via Junko's room.
I wish you luck at stopping at 80... it may be the best logical stopping point, but... ^^;
I'm quite curious to hear what you think, as no one else that I got to watch Nana this year was brave enough to venture into the manga knowing it's unfinished.
Though I didn't realize that there was basically enough content for a sequel series of equal length in the manga.
YUP
I finished it well over a month ago and I still think about it on a near daily basis.
Shit, indeed.
I read it at the start of this year.finishing chainsaw man before 2021 ended was legit a great idea tbh
The trailer made me more interesting in reading the manga. Watching the trailer again after finishing the manga, you get a better appreciation for what the trailer is doing.I read it at the start of this year.
I have no idea what my life would be like if I watched that CSM trailer first.

I really need to re-read Look Back soon.
Tomoyo Shiino has stood by her friend Mariko through years of abuse, abandonment, and depression. However horrific her circumstances, their friendship has been the one reassuring constant in Mariko's life—and Tomoyo's too. That is, until Tomoyo is utterly blindsided by news of Mariko's death. In life, Tomoyo felt powerless to help her best friend out of the darkness that ultimately drove her over the edge. Now, Tomoyo is determined to liberate Mariko's ashes for one final journey together to set free her dear, broken Mariko. (source)
Pacing, art style, the dynamism, the dialogues… everything is so on point. Hard to believe this is the author's first published manga (she did like a short story before that, but that's about it).
I just couldn't put it down, read the whole thing in an hour and I enjoyed every single page of it. Excited to see what the author's next project is (it's supposed to start this year). From what I understand, My Broken Mariko is a bit based on her own experience, as one of her friends suffered from similar abuse. This manga feels like a way for her to put on paper what she couldn't do in real life. https://mangaot.wordpress.com/2020/10/07/my-broken-mariko/(source)[/URL
Read Fire Punch. There's a reason so many people were excited for CSM before the manga even startedI was already sold on Fujimoto after Look Back, but jesus christ, endgame Chainsaw Man is a conceptual mindfuck.
Also one of the few manga I've read that has really started fucking with the format (though to be fair I don't think I read particularly widely)
Well this was depressing from start to finish 😢December 2021 Community Recommendation

Probably the worst chapter in this series.
The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess Manga Will End With The Next Chapter
It's been going since 2016www.nintendolife.com
Wait, where was I when this was announced? I know there's been plenty of Zelda manga before, but I didn't know about a Twilight Princess manga that's been going for almost six years.
I will never read this series. Spoil me.I still cannot believe an editor said, "Yeah, go for it" to this shit
MC is about to confess to heroine. She knows this, is unsure/afraid of her feelings and runs away before he can say anything. MC in shambles. Goes to the pool and imagines the heroine have surprisingly graphic sex with her guy friend for 8 PAGES. Last few panels shows the MC crying while having an erection.
Sounds like a quality manga for sure.MC is about to confess to heroine. She knows this, is unsure/afraid of her feelings and runs away before he can say anything. MC in shambles. Goes to the pool and imagines the heroine have surprisingly graphic sex with her guy friend for 8 PAGES. Last few panels shows the MC crying while having an erection.
This is all in a shonen magazine btw.
It's been trash for a while (slow pacing, no relationship progress, garbage characters), but this is the first time the series ever went this far. Reason everyone is talking about it is because its so unexpected.

It's so bad that I feel dirty even knowing it. I just read it because I'd heard the rumors and boy oh boy. A friend gave me some context on what's going on in the arc that makes it even worse. lol
Yeah, I do not comprehend how editors were down, but I guess it gets people talking and potentially picking up the magazine to see it.It's so bad that I feel dirty even knowing it.

Basically the MC thinks he got dumped and spends the chapter wallowing in self-pity and imagining his crush (who is currently running around trying to save his ass from his insane ex) getting her back absolutely blown out by some random dude (softcore porn style). Also it gives him a boner and he cries.
What kind of insane person would even conceive of such a chapter. Then there's the editors and assistants who all rubber stamped it. It's some straight up nutcase shit.
