“Heavy Hearted, Suffocating, Yet Beautiful”
I don’t know how Fujimoto does it, but this makes me even more excited to see how Chainsaw Man Part 2 evolves. A simple one-shot that feels utterly heavy hearted, suffocating, yet beautiful to read.

Captured beautifully the struggle of wanting to be an artist, the childhood envy, the change of motivation, the drive, the pain and the beauty of chasing an impossible goal.
Look Back indeed, to all the artists, to look back.
Is so beautiful to read. pic.twitter.com/Ln74aiDF6v
