I expect the school to survive, at least for a while, if only because everyone expects it to get demolished.

I need a new sig.

Watch the next part start with a cold open of the school being destroyed.

Then twenty chapters of wholesome high-school antics amidst the rubble.

What's precedent ever done for us?

Y'all mad: it's gonna be twenty chapters of wholesome antics, then the school gets demolished and everyone inside dies.

Fujimoto, if nothing else, ain't an amateur, he knows how to find that hole inside, and making it bigger.

Wanna ask something, what are your thoughts on Makima in general? Is she a Base-Breaking Character in your opinion? And do you know a meme surrounding her about several guys simping for her to the point they want to become her lapdog to be dominated at the end? I heard about that meme on Facebook recently, so I just decided to ask that out of curiosity.

To be stepped on is something that must be made whithin the boundaries of sanity, safety and consent, and I'm pretty sure Makima breaks all three, so no thanks.

As for Makima herself, she's a fantastic villain: despite her crushing power her characterization as an abuser makes her surprisingly grounded and all the more chilling because of it. And I like how her obsession leads to her ultimate defeat in a way that is both ludicrous and yet completely in line with the setting's rules.

But she's hot and a lady so obviously people must leather pants the shit out of her.

If I blew a fuse every time that happened, though, I would've driven myself into a stress-induced heart attack years ago, so eh.

Volume 11 cover

[up][up][up] I preferred Makima when she was an unknown entity than the control devil. I didn't feel that the reveal was as good as the mysteries that came before. I didn't lik many parts of the "final" arc to be honest, though now that we know that not to be true, I'm waiting to see how things unfold with her as Nayuta.

The second part? No, not yet. No announcement either. Fujimoto pretty much has that Ron Swanson "I can do what I want" permit.

As a manga artist, convincing Shueisha to let you take a break is the ultimate power move.

After the dude had a lesbian orgy as a chapter cover in a presumed kids' magazine I'm pretty sure he has blackmail material on some higher ups.

Second popularity poll is out.

Top 10:

1. Aki

2. Makima

3. Power

4. Denji

5. Reze

6. Yoshida

7. Angel

8. Himeno

9. Pochita

10. Kobeni

Yoshida placing in the top 10 again, despite doing nearly nothing but stand around and look pretty, is something I find incredibly bemusing. Kobeni's Car at least had the novelty and meme factor. Like, I wonder if Fujimoto was trying to prove a point to someone that this is all it takes.

He also has memes about how he looks like the kind of guy who beats his wife IIRC.

It's been mentioned by Sakugabooru peps that this trailer is probably pre animated, and that seems to check out since this is obviously animated by shingo (he did the two Jujutsu Kaisen ops, styles match) but he's not mentioned in the main staff list:

Original work: Tatsuki Fujimoto (Shueisha Jump Comics)

Director: Ryu Nakayama (First show he directed)

Screenplay: Hiroshi Seko (AOT, JJK and more)

Character Design Kazutaka Sugiyama (Mushoku Tensei)

Action Director Tatsuya Yoshihara

Chief Director: Masato Nakazono

Demon Design: Kiyotaka Oshiyama

Art Director: Yusuke Takeda

Color Design: Naomi Nakano

Screen Design: Yohei Miyahara

Music: kensuke Ushio

Animation Producer: Keisuke Seshimo

Regardless, it has been stated that chainsawman is a high priority MAPPA product, so it'll probably come out looking great even though there's no way it'll look exactly like this the whole way through. The animators will probably have hell but that's MAPPA's M.O.
