Nice, I've read them all long ago, and they were all interesting one-shots. I guess we can hope for Fire Punch someday. I would prefer a second season of Chainsaw Man to finish the first arc but not over a third season, as the second arc hasn't worked for me so far.

that's too early for second season of Chainsawman since the reze movie is not out yet.

I love how you can tell from the trailers that this is Fujimoto.

A Fire Punch (and dare I say Goodbye Eri?) anime feels inevitable at this point.

Great to see more of Fujimoto's one-shots animated, especially as they are better than his serialised works (in my opinion).

Hopefully Goodbye Eri is next.

Now this is a good idea! But unfortunately Amazon means we won't be able to just buy this for a loooong time, right?

I'm confident that season 2, the conclusion to Part 1 is already in the cards for 2027.

I actually like Part 2, it's different in a good way, and despite a new lead character it essentially transitions back to making Denji the lead again halfway through, and I'm super interested in how Fujimoto plans to resolve things!

I don't know who'll have the balls to adapt Fire Punch, but Goodbye Eri is an inevitability. If it were me, I'd actually go with realistic CG performance-capture, still keeping the anime character design aesthetics, with handheld virtual camera as it's style.

Maybe Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4 for 2029 and Chainsawman Season 3 for 2030
