What Are Your Fav to Least Fav Chainsaw Man Endings?
Disclaimer: I think every ending ranges from good to masterpiece. I’m basing my ranks on how much I like the song and visuals.
12. Ending 7; “All Kinds of Kisses” by ano
This song is not for me. When it comes to songs with high-pitched singing, I mostly don’t like it. It’s a bit too cutesy and usually stay the same throughout the whole thing. I think the singer is talented but I don’t think her music is for me. There are moments when I like the song such as near the end. The song’s beat is good and I can jam to it.
The old video game concept was a nice idea and it was fun seeing Chainsaw Denji walking around like an NPC and interacting with other characters. The visuals afterwards are okay. I don’t have strong feelings seeing the female characters is provocative positions so I can take it or leave it. The vomiting scene on the other hand made me uncomfortable. It’s not as bad as in the show but vomiting makes me really uncomfortable even when it’s censored.
11. Ending 12; “Fight Song” by Eve
I think my expectations with Eve kind of messed with my enjoyment of the song. With Eve doing the 1st opening for Jujutsu Kaisen, I expected a lot from Eve and, unfortunately, I was underwhelmed. The song is good and I would listen to it once in a while, yet “Fight Song” sounds more generic compared to the uniqueness of most endings. The vocals and instruments are still good.
Visuals are sweet since we needed a chill ending with the main cast hanging out. Although the visuals are kind of like every anime ending, I appreciate the concept of a fun time. I would say my favorite part is seeing how the main three grew into a family after a rocky start in the beginning of the show.
10. Ending 4; “Tablet” by Tooboe
The song fits Power’s chaotic energy very well, but it’s not a song I really like without the show connection. The screaming sections are really unique and cool to listen to. However, in my opinion, the song isn’t as successful with not having an interesting bridge as “Rendevous” by Kanaria. It’s still a fun song and I do have urges to listen to it once in a while.
Seeing Power in different outfits was cute, and the costumes are pretty stylish, but that’s the only thing I really enjoy about the visuals. I don’t care for anime dances so Power dancing didn’t do much for me, and the simplicity of what’s occurring is kind of boring. Though, I really like the sketching style was a cool idea.
9. Ending 11; “Violence” by Queen Bee
This song is a fun listen! Queen Bee have a unique vocalist who makes the song for me. The guitar is really good but it’s not particularly unique like most Chainsaw Man endings. It’s a bit poppy but I think it fits since it has some rock elements in the vocals and guitar.
The visuals are cool. I really like the characters dissolving to add an interesting transition for the next scene. The glass fragments are nice to look at and adds something interesting to the skyline. Though, I don’t like the Power dancing part since the 3D looked a bit off but I think my bias on 2D animation is getting in the way.
8. Ending 5; “In the Backroom” by Syudou
It took me a while for me to like this song, probably because the beat felt a bit random at some points and I have trouble liking songs that don’t have a recognizable beat. Though, the vocals were great, especially when he did that half scream and started showing more of their vocal talent. I grew to really like the beat and interesting additions like the similar snapping and bell noises.
Visuals were a bit too random and it’s hard to feel attachment to them since I didn’t understand the concept idea for it. They are still great though. My favorite moments were the agents walking continuous stairs, the two Makimas looking like a god, and the ending where every characters appears but ends with Denji.
7. Ending 10; “Dogland” by People 1
This song is nice but I don’t get excited about it until the bridge when the vocalist is letting loose. The ending cares “Dogland” for me. I do like the part when Denji says “Bow Wow” because of his comparison to a dog.
The visuals and meaning behind the ending carries its ranking. Throughout the show, Denji is constantly compared to a dog and having an opening dedicated to that was a smart idea. Animating Denji with real objects filmed through rotoscope was super cool and looked natural. MAPPA did a great job as always! I also have a bias towards dogs.
6. Ending 6; “Rendevous” by Kanaria
The song is really good though it’s not as high since the song stays at the same level throughout the whole ending. The vocalist has a recognizable voice and the music composition is so well done that you can’t help but tap your feet to the beat.
Labyrinths always interested me so I really enjoyed the visuals and constant looping through it. When it comes to visuals, I like feeling like I’m traveling through the setting and this opening did a great job doing it. The close up to Denji’s chainsaw form was so cool and the touch of red made it pop.
5. Ending 2; “Time Left” by Zutomayo
The bass at the beginning is a nice touch to the softer vocals so the song doesn’t deviate too far from Chainsaw Man’s edgy theme. My favorite parts is the bridge since the vocals and instruments ramp up and the ending when the vocalists heightens her voice in some parts(Sorry don’t know singing terms).
I really like the sketching style of the visuals. It feels like I’m watching a manga come to life. Seeing the main cast in individual moments was nice since we get to see how different their lives are from each other. My favorite visual is Denji falling from the sky. It’s so smooth and seeing his pov made me feel like I was falling.
4. Ending 1; “Chainsaw Blood” by Vaundy
This is a great start to the ending fest!
I don’t have a lot to say about this song other than I enjoy the bada** feeling it gives when I listen to it and the slow “oooh, oooh” moments are a good ramp up to the song. Great song for people who like softer rock, which I usually prefer.
Visuals are really good. My favorite parts are seeing Denji rip apart the zombies during the bridge and the Denji/Pochita moments since they remind me of me and my dog.
3. Ending 3; “Hawatari Nioku Centi” by Maximum the Hormone
I’m not a big rock fan yet I really enjoy this opening. I feel like such a bada** whenever I hear the beginning- my favorite part- and the switch up with the slow moment was so well-done. The ending with the guy revving up his voice like a chainsaw was a great touch. It’s not higher-up because I don’t love the middle section of the ending compared to the beginning and ending. Super chaotic moments aren’t my cup of tea.
Love the red lighting and neon coloring! It makes everything pop; I would have them as a poster for my room. I also really like the choice of having Makima looking like a benevolent goddess since that’s how Denji views her.
2. Ending 9; “Deep Down” by Aimer
This song is so different from all the others, but it works so well. Aimer has such a hauntingly beautiful voice and the softness of the instruments are welcoming after almost every ending are loud and pack a punch.
The visuals are also simplistic with a black background with blood and organs morphing into different images. This ending made me appreciate the animation more since I see the imagery slowing changing. It’s so satisfying.
1. Ending 8; “First Death” by T.K. from Ling tosite sigure
I love this song! T.K is one of my favorite artists! He has such a unique voice and hearing his voice mix well with more rock influenced music. I’m used to listening to his more slower music so I was pleasantly surprised that “First Death wasn’t like this.
The visuals aren’t super unique like most other endings but the lighting is breathtaking and the more action packed moments near the end make it up for me. I’m also more partial towards Aki and Himeno since I really like their characters.
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO AFTER THIS😭
NO ONE COULD POSSIBLY BE THE SAME ANYMORE AFTER LISTENING TO FUKAI MORI, LET'S NOT KID OURSELVES
N O S T A L G I A
Adult Swim had bangers although it aired mad late
y’all know when there’s like a fight or something big happening in an anime episode and there’s like this emotional soundtrack playing,,,,when the song continues and replaces the usual ending for that episode, that gives me goosebumps
for reference: demon slayer episode 19
