I loved this book since I saw the cover the series starts on a really high note and stays there I have the whole collection and I love it the characters and plot are really well written and fujimoto is a genius to creating a good story with good art denji the main character goes through major character development I find that his goals are relatable even for a fiction book about a guy who turns into a chainsaw

I have many thoughts about this series and this individual volume, but for now, I'll just say this: the frank depiction of the trauma/effects of poverty and childhood neglect is one of the most visceral and relatable that I've seen in fiction so far. My childhood wasn't anywhere near the level of fucked up that Denji's was, but the financial anxiety and hyperawareness and loneliness and finding escapism in dreams/fantasies was very familiar to me.

Aaaagh why do I always do this? Why do I always leave the series that make me the most hyped to read for last!? I'm so dumb lol Anyways, I loved this! It's a reread so I knew what to expect from this volume, but there was so much I did not remember, and having watched the debut episode for the anime, it's incredible how smooth everything is compared to the art in the manga haha I love Denji as a character, and I gotta admit, back when I read this for the first time, I was still a teen who did not understand anything from this world and thought Denji was just a weird preverted MC, 

but seeing it from the eyes of a boy who hasn't experienced anything, he's very pitiful and I love him with all my heart ( <3 ).  I can't wait to see how fucked up this Makima and Denji dynamic is going to become... oh boy.
