if chainsaw man was a celebrity today he'd be cancelled 1 million times
Was it different with me?
Severance— Season 2, Episode 6: "Attila" (2025)
considering how strong the motif of motherhood and brutal birth/rebirth is in chainsaw man (especially with fujimoto pointing out that chainsaws were originally created in order to assist in difficult births), denji’s act of slashing makima apart with his chainsaw, and then eating her out of love (in his own words “becoming one with her”)…… the way it leads to nayuta’s “birth”……….. as well as the fact that he becomes a parental figure to her………….. and his deciding to break the cycle of abuse that both he and makima endured………….. and how makima herself acted as an abusive mother to denji as well as a toxic romantic/sexual partner……………. really hard to not read it as like. a metaphor for nayuta being denji and makima’s child, with denji simultaneously being a father and mother to her. like literally accepting makima’s impact on him and his feelings for her, taking on her ‘sins’ and vowing to do better, including her role as a *mother* to their metaphorical child.
