Chainsaw Man’s new art style has prompted both backlash and praise from manga fans who immediately noticed Tatsuki Fujimoto’s drastically distinct creative shift.The massive appeal of the Chainsaw Man franchise is due in no small part to its extremely unique (if not also incredibly morbid) premise. The ongoing manga’s popularity has only increased since its initial publication in 2018, fueled by a dedicated community and an influx of new fans funneled by the anime series. As is often the case, fandoms consider popular manga inseparable from their authors, whose every creative decision is frequently either heavily praised or nitpicked. Chainsaw Man creator Tatsuki Fujimoto has likewise received his fair share of criticism, including the recent uproar on X (formerly Twitter) over his distinctly different art style in the latest manga release (Chapter 152).Many clearly hope that the manga will return to form with a more relaxed, bi-weekly release schedule, with some fans even speculating how Fujimoto’s artistry has been compromised thanks to Chainsaw Man’s hectic weekly serialization. It’s evident the new chapter has alienated fans who prefer the art style of the early issues, but it’s unclear whether this new approach will also apply to upcoming chapters or if this was an experimental one-shot release. Fujimoto’s new art style further distances the manga’s aesthetics from the anime, which features visually smooth and stylized illustrations. However, none of the criticisms have touched on Chainsaw Man’s current story arc, which many consider to be one of the manga’s best beats to date.
