Chainsaw Man

Tatsuki Fujimoto

I recently got into this mangaka. He has another series (Fire Punch) and a few one shots. I haven't read Fire Punch yet but I have read a couple of his one shots and even wrote a review for one of them (Goodbye, Eri). Chainsaw Man is very good and the Anime has some great music and animation!

Goodbye, Eri

Tatsuki Fujimoto

An very good one shot that I wrote a review of (which you can read here). I loved it when I first read it and have been looking forward to buying it. I can't believe I found it at my local Walmart!
