Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc premiered with great success, managing to position itself in second place on My Anime List, with 200,000 votes highlighting its popularity in the otaku community. Currently, the movie has an average rating of 9.18, a slight increase from 9.10 in the first 24 hours, placing it just behind Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End, which boasts a 9.29. This solid debut places the movie among the greats, alongside classics like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Steins;Gate, and the third season of Attack on Titan.
It is on its way to becoming the highest-rated movie
The film, which adapts the Bomb Girl arc from the famous manga by Tatsuki Fujimoto, made its triumphant entry on the Rotten Tomatoes platform with an impressive 100% positive reviews. However, one negative review has slightly reduced its score to 96%. Despite this drop, it remains an undeniable success, and fans are assuring that Denji would approve (and probably eat) those flowers of recognition.
The plot of Reze Arc follows Denji’s adventures as he falls in love with the enigmatic Reze, in his quest for the feared Gun Devil. Although rumors have circulated about the release of a second season of the anime, no official announcement has been made to date.
As fans await news about the future of the anime, the horizon is also brightened by the arrival of new seasons of other acclaimed animes, such as Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End and Jujutsu Kaisen, scheduled for 2026. This anticipation suggests that the world of anime will continue to experience significant growth in the coming years.
