Chainsaw Minute: Chapter 161: Chainsaw Man Puzzle

[00:00:00] A lot of people have issues with the 4th season of Community and I tend to agree but I do feel like there is occasionally a few positive elements

[00:00:05] Like the incorporation of the character Rachel in the later seasons, I think was actually ultra-

[00:00:09] Shush!

[00:00:09] I'm looking at the time

[00:00:10] It's...

[00:00:11] The Shades of Liberty

[00:00:31] I'm David and this is your Dose of Chainsaw Man

[00:00:35] You can join us every Friday where we see what masterpiece Fujimoto put out

[00:00:39] I'm Jordan and if you're looking for regular Shonen Flop goodness

[00:00:42] You find our next episode to hear our first thoughts on killing me this Monday

[00:00:47] David, you're killing me!

[00:00:49] Oh my god!

[00:00:51] And we're killing it every single time we record

[00:00:53] Oh yeah

[00:00:54] These recordings are open, everyone to listen and chat along with us on the Shonen Flop Discord every 6pm Eastern time when there's a new chapter out

[00:01:01] You can find it linked to in our show notes or on our site

[00:01:03] Oh yeah

[00:01:04] And Jordan, you know what's opposite of our listeners is the devil

[00:01:07] So Jordan, what was your devil this week?

[00:01:09] Except for the cool devils, you know what I mean like those awesome devils

[00:01:13] I feel like Ozzy Rats the devil

[00:01:14] But anyway, my devil this week was the gym devil

[00:01:18] I'm fucking exhausted David

[00:01:20] What did he do to you?

[00:01:21] He knows what he did

[00:01:22] Well, it's Bob and Jimbo

[00:01:24] Oh, but yeah, no

[00:01:26] I came back from the gym not long ago

[00:01:28] Oh my god, I'm barely here

[00:01:31] Did you get that contract thing sorted out?

[00:01:34] Yeah

[00:01:35] Oh, I'm so glad to hear that

[00:01:36] They gave us a huge discount

[00:01:37] Oh, that's awesome man

[00:01:39] Yeah

[00:01:40] Anyway

[00:01:41] Mine was the cleaning devil

[00:01:43] I had people over Easter which means I had to de-clean the whole apartment

[00:01:46] That was fun, fun, fun

[00:01:48] Loved it, but at least now I have a clean apartment

[00:01:50] I had a great time with Easter

[00:01:51] Unfortunately, Ravuli's bunny costume did not come in time

[00:01:54] No

[00:01:56] We got a similar thing where our kitten is a little over six months

[00:02:01] And he's big enough where we finally got rid of his pen

[00:02:05] Which was taking up a lot of space in our room

[00:02:09] And so now there's a lot more space

[00:02:11] And he's been going crazy because the space has changed

[00:02:14] So yeah, it's really nice to have more room

[00:02:16] But I wish he'd chill out

[00:02:18] I totally get that

[00:02:19] It was adjustment for Ravuli

[00:02:21] I actually had a very traumatic moment where Ravuli really likes eating fruits and vegetables

[00:02:25] But I was eating grapes and it's just so emotionally crushing

[00:02:28] Oh god, yeah, keep those away from her

[00:02:31] So anyway though, enough about that Jordan

[00:02:34] The plot summary for

[00:02:36] Chapter one to 61

[00:02:38] Chainsaw Man Puzzle

[00:02:40] More like Jigsaw Man Puzzle, am I right?

[00:02:43] Alright

[00:02:44] The surgeons are finished cutting Denji apart

[00:02:47] And decide to take a break when Katana Man bursts through the door

[00:02:50] Spilling all the boxes of Denji on the ground

[00:02:53] This upsets the doctors who just fucking finished organizing them

[00:02:56] God damn it

[00:02:57] Yoru demands that the kids start putting him back together

[00:03:00] But the idea that when they start up his heart

[00:03:02] He'll reform

[00:03:03] Stuckly kickstart Mahar

[00:03:05] How the fuck that song goes?

[00:03:07] Sure

[00:03:08] They find his wiener

[00:03:10] And Katana Man says to shove it up his ass

[00:03:12] Which is vetoed by Yoru

[00:03:14] Who wants him to put it back together

[00:03:16] They find his wiener

[00:03:17] And Katana Man says to shove it up his ass

[00:03:19] Which is vetoed by Yoru

[00:03:21] Who wants to put it back together properly

[00:03:23] So she can have a true battle with him

[00:03:25] It's a very important part, David

[00:03:26] Yes

[00:03:27] And popcorn you

[00:03:28] So it was actually a plug for the Shonen

[00:03:30] For the Chainsaw Man fighting game they're releasing

[00:03:32] Katana Man makes fun of her for having no game

[00:03:35] And no bitches

[00:03:36] But Yoru says that bitches ain't shit

[00:03:38] To which Nail laughs and says she doesn't know anything about love

[00:03:41] And Yoru says, nah, uh

[00:03:43] Bro, Bainie finds Chainsaw Man's head

[00:03:45] And Asa is shocked to discover that Chainsaw Man is Dennis

[00:03:48] What?

[00:03:49] What?

[00:03:50] What?

[00:03:51] What a twist

[00:03:52] Just then

[00:03:53] Oh my god

[00:03:54] It's Quan Chi's music as she busts through the door

[00:03:57] And shit

[00:03:58] I guess that dude actually did go get someone who could kill everyone

[00:04:01] Yeah, that's the thing

[00:04:02] Like when he said I'm gonna get someone who could kill you

[00:04:05] I was like who are you gonna get

[00:04:07] And then he got Quan Chi and I'm like oh okay

[00:04:09] But actually, not a bad choice there

[00:04:12] She might actually be able to kill everyone in the room

[00:04:17] So Chorn

[00:04:18] This is definitely a very strong contender for the best chapter of the year

[00:04:21] This was really good

[00:04:22] I was smiling, laughing just

[00:04:24] This was just a great chapter

[00:04:25] So Chorn what stood out to you first is why this was a 10 out of 10

[00:04:28] The nonchalance of the doctors

[00:04:31] Fucking doctor

[00:04:32] They're like alright so they're intruders

[00:04:34] Let's just take five everybody

[00:04:36] Yeah

[00:04:37] I mean that's the thing is everyone so adjusted to everything being awful in the chainsaw man world

[00:04:41] That it just adds this really great sense of black comedy to it

[00:04:45] Oh yeah or they're like is this chainsaw man's head and he's like seems like it

[00:04:49] And he's holding like just a cup of coffee

[00:04:51] He doesn't give a shit

[00:04:52] He's like yeah whatever

[00:04:53] Like they're mostly angry that they knocked over the boxes which they just finished

[00:04:58] Oh they were so mad about the boxes being knocked over

[00:05:00] They were so mad about that

[00:05:02] Also David I'm just saying seems like there's only one leg

[00:05:05] Seems like there's only one of each body part

[00:05:08] I don't know

[00:05:09] Just seems that way

[00:05:10] I guess we'll see maybe hashtag Jordan was right 2024

[00:05:13] I think I might have been right

[00:05:14] And then my head cannon is a ken jung

[00:05:16] That doctor was ken jung if he hadn't gone into comedy but kept a sense of humor

[00:05:21] That's fair yeah I can see that

[00:05:23] I don't know

[00:05:24] Maybe it's somebody else

[00:05:25] Maybe it's Doctor House

[00:05:26] Doctor House would also be that nonchalant and not give it a shit

[00:05:30] It's all I'm saying

[00:05:31] That actually happened in episode where a guy with a gun was a hostage situation

[00:05:34] But House fought his medical issue was really interesting

[00:05:37] So he handed him back the gun so he could keep working on the issue

[00:05:40] So yes House would act exactly like that

[00:05:42] Yeah I also loved Fami just being like elbow

[00:05:46] I thought that was a good moment

[00:05:47] And then Seenbro Baini just continued the co-Baini

[00:05:50] Where he actually apologizes for interrupting

[00:05:53] They actually apologized for knocking over the boxes

[00:05:56] I liked the guy who found Denji's wiener

[00:05:59] Something Steph pointed out is that at first she read it like

[00:06:03] Oh my god it's his wiener

[00:06:05] It's his wiener what should I do with like kind of goofy like

[00:06:08] But realized no that guy was super serious

[00:06:10] He was like I found his wiener where should I put it

[00:06:12] Can I also say I just love their choice of the word wiener

[00:06:15] Yes it's great this is not the first time

[00:06:18] Absolutely perfect

[00:06:19] And Katana Manus like shove it up his ass

[00:06:22] He really wants his revenge

[00:06:24] Yeah for getting kicked in the balls a billion times

[00:06:26] Yeah

[00:06:27] I don't fucking blame him

[00:06:28] That's Seen when they find his head and say that's his head

[00:06:30] No doubt about the thing

[00:06:32] When the surgeon just goes no doubt about it

[00:06:35] It's just that was by far the funniest thing that's happened in part two of Chainsaw Man

[00:06:39] It's really good this whole chapter

[00:06:41] Like I feel like part two has definitely not been as action packed as part one

[00:06:46] But to slow burn

[00:06:48] It's been a lot funnier I will say

[00:06:51] Yeah

[00:06:52] Also man Fujimoto fucking loves eye patches

[00:06:56] There are three people with eye patches in this chapter alone

[00:07:00] Yeah and as he posted on the discord

[00:07:02] Denji started the series wearing an eye patch

[00:07:04] Denji started the series with an eye patch

[00:07:07] And then of course there's Himino

[00:07:09] And there's probably more eye patches that I'm not remembering

[00:07:12] I know that Fujimoto said his love of strong women came from a girl

[00:07:16] He used to bully him I think in school

[00:07:18] I wonder if she wore an eye patch

[00:07:20] Is that really why?

[00:07:23] Yeah

[00:07:24] Oh Fujimoto

[00:07:25] I think it's like Makama is based on a high school bully he had

[00:07:28] I was gonna say that doesn't shock me at all based on like Makama

[00:07:31] Or honestly Aza

[00:07:33] Yeah

[00:07:34] By the way I feel like we're starting to near the end game of part two

[00:07:37] What do you think? Like I feel like we're maybe got a year left

[00:07:40] I think that that makes sense

[00:07:42] Because I think Aza finding out that Denji was Chainsaw Man

[00:07:46] Was probably a big like beat of tension

[00:07:50] I suppose that was just kind of released

[00:07:53] I mean we had Denji finally facing consequences for being Chainsaw Man 2

[00:07:59] Yeah

[00:08:00] That is also like a very big climactic moment

[00:08:02] Yeah I think that like things really are starting to get resolved

[00:08:06] So it makes sense that we're getting close to the climax of part two

[00:08:09] Yeah

[00:08:10] Now do you think it'll end or do you think there'll be a part three?

[00:08:12] I think there's gonna be a part three

[00:08:14] I mean I know that Shonen Jump does not want this series to end

[00:08:18] The way that they work they'd love it to go on forever

[00:08:21] You think part three will have a tournament, Arc David?

[00:08:23] Yeah of course

[00:08:24] In hell

[00:08:25] Oh fuck Denji still hasn't gotten a hell to save power yet

[00:08:27] Yeah

[00:08:28] Fuck I can't believe we're talking about that plot line

[00:08:30] He's gotta go to the hell tournament

[00:08:32] Yes

[00:08:33] He's gonna fight Goku

[00:08:34] Yeah it's just gonna be the dark tournament from Yu-Yu Hakusho

[00:08:37] Yeah

[00:08:38] But with Denji

[00:08:40] Oh man

[00:08:41] Alright do you have anything Chainsaw actually related to this chapter that you still want to talk about?

[00:08:46] I know

[00:08:47] This was a really good chapter though

[00:08:49] It was really funny

[00:08:50] Yeah well Jordan I want to say thank you for all your hard work on the show
