  I watched it a few days ago (it’s been out for a week already where I am).

  It’s good, but I’ve got a hunch that people who like the first half won’t like the second half, and vice versa. It’s a slightly odd film, pacing-wise, but maybe in a good way? It definitely hasn’t let the franchise down.

    Does it feel like an actual movie, or like a bunch of episodes strewn together?

      It’s one story. It’s not episodic, but there is a major gear change halfway through.

      (I don’t think it’s a spoiler to say that, for reasons that will be clear once you see it)

        So Chainsaw Man adds a transmission to his chainsaw?!

        Is it as jarring as watching Evangelion Rebuild 2.0 and then immediately watching Evangelion Rebuild 3.0?

        From slapstick anime to serious business.
