Chainsaw Man: All winks and film references that appear in the anime opening

After several months of tireless wait and a lot of patience, it is finally here: the anime of Chainsaw Man has just released and the public has gone crazy with the anime of the chainsaw boy. While the first chapter has been a complete madness (although personally the CGI bothers me too much), what has surprised us most has been opening, especially because it is a message of love to the audiovisual environment.

That is why, as with the Star Walking 'video clip for the Worlds of Legends Worlds, from MGG we want to help you Understand all the references that have been seen in the opening , from several Tarantino films even Japanese worship horror films that have fallen in love with everyone.

The Divine Comedy of Dante

A few seconds just start this incredible opening we can see the background of an image of Campos , a character from the divine comedy, the famous poem written by Dante Alighieri and considered the masterpiece of Italian literature. This poem tells Dante's story, a lover that has to go beyond hell to save his beloved, although it will not be easy task. It is true that Chainsaw Man is not exactly something like this story, but he does part of its essence... You will see why in the next episodes.

Reservoir Dogs

In the manga they also make this reference, but seeing it animated always cool more with music. Reservoir Dogs is the premium opera of Quentin Tarantino , the acclaimed American director who has created his own world within commercial cinema. This film revolves around a poorly executed robbery and a series of betrayals with unexpected script turns, something that characterizes Chainsaw Man from the first chapters of the work.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Obviously, one of the great references of Managua to create this colorful protagonist was Leather face and the Stanza de Texas, one of the best horror films of all time. This scene refers to one of the brightest moments of the film, which specifically is its beginning where the gore is clear and how turbulent the work can be, as well as the 1974 film and the 2018 manga.

Pulp fiction

Tarantino is still present in this opening, but this time with one of the teachers of the series that we will not talk about much to leave you with the intrigue, referring to Jules Winfield, one of the protagonists of Pulp Fiction played by Samuel L Jackson. Of course, Shinto Yamashina is a true fan of the world of cinema and this plane perfectly shows the love that the director has for the seventh art.

Sadat vs Kayak

This reference may not know the majority, but it is fascinating, since it emulates a plane that can be seen in the movie Sadat vs Kayak. It turns out that Japan took a little more than 5 years ago a terror film that faced the curse girl against The Ring girl, a death fight in the purest Freddy vs Jason or Alien vs predator that if it is much more related to Chainsaw Man; You just have to see the frame, although the enemy of the demon chainsaw we will not comment on by we already know what.

Javier Bardem and is not a country for old

Even Spain has its space in Chainsaw Man, in part because we talk about Javier Bardem , an actor who won an Oscar prize for his role in is not a country for old people. The Spanish has its wink in the opening of the anime with one of the scenes where you can see the spiral of madness in which it was Anton High , the main antagonist of the work who has been inspiration from the occasional villain to the That will have to face the Buyramierra boy.

It was once in Hollywood

Tarantino remains a fundamental piece to understand, above all, the philosophy and gore that surrounds Chainsaw Man . While once in Hollywood it is not the best film of the director, it does have a very interesting background that can be reflected in some other character of Hashimoto's work. This scene that emulates equals one of the first of the film, where the actor almost retired and of the dual and best friend of him is presented.

The attack of the murderous tomatoes

Perhaps the most searching reference, but at the same time more obvious of all those that have been seen in the trailer, since it is a tracing of a scene of the low-budget film the attack of the murderous tomatoes, which is So bad that many have considered the worse American film never made (with permission from The Room obviously). This reference is basically a direct to the first enemy that has to face Benji: a demon tomato.

Don't Look Up (1996)

Chainsaw

It should be noted that no, we are not talking about the movie that came out just over Netflix where we saw Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio fight for the truth. It is a Japanese cult film that talks about a ghost inside a film studio. The director is Video Takata, an eminence of the creative genre of The Ring.

The Jacob staircase

This scene represents, above all, the state of madness that our protagonist Benji will have to deal with. The Jacob ladder is one of the films that best represents the state of madness and traumas that you can have with the war . And it is that the war, even if it seems, is very important throughout the work. It is true that many have not read the manga, but you will gradually understand why this issue has so much prominence.

Constantine

Born with the gift of seeing the angels and demons living in the earth under human aspect, John Constantine took his life to escape from his visions. Risen against his will, patrol the earthly border between heaven and hell . This is the synopsis of constant, the film directed by Francis Lawrence that reflects very well the atmosphere that surrounds Chainsaw Man, the demons, angels and fight against divine beings will be something very important in the furthest phases of the series.

The Great Borowski

Although Chainsaw Man has a very dark tone, on many occasions we see that he also has that realistic vision of seeing things differently and assuming fate. The great Borowski is one of those works that teach you to live life without unbridled and assuming who you are, nobody. The scene refers to one of the most beloved characters in the entire film despite the scarce appearances of him: Jesús Quinton.

Thor: Love and Thunder

Fujiko is very fan of Western films, but has declared that he loves Taiga Waiting's movies . The Hawaiian director is a great reference for Managua and wanted to pay tribute to the anime opening, since in the manga we have not been able to see a clear reference of the author.

Evangelist/Naruto

Chainsaw Man's scene leaving a giant ball full of blood is a clear reference to Evangelist in the Eva fight against Level , although it is true that it can also refer to in turn with Naruto and his Transformation of 9 tails fox against Pain. It is obvious that Evangelist is one of the great references, and that many of the titles we have now would have disappeared.

Fight club

David Fischer's magma work is, without a doubt, one of the great representations of human destruction and Nietzsche's philosophy about the self and the super me. This duality between your crazy self and your rational self looks a lot in Chainsaw Man, and the scene of the giant ball that they recreate with Maxima perfectly represents the spiral of madness and destruction of the entire work for each chapter that comes out.

Mickey Mouse's house

This reference is not at all confirmed, but it is very likely that Power and Benji's dance comes from the Mickey Mouse's house, one of the most prosperous children's works in recent years. Here we do not fully understand why they added this dance, but it is likely to be to to represent the immaturity of the two characters in the face of Aka's seriousness , who we will know in chapter 2 of the anime and that many of you It will call attention to reminding you of a certain character that also belongs to a Zappa anime.

Perspective and manipulation

The table on manipulation in exchange for our wisdom is also shown in Chainsaw Man: below are Benji and Power as great leaders of ignorance and innocence; On the second level we met Aka, who found part of the truth (you will understand the snow later); In the third level, where we know the whole truth, there is Maxima.

The Luucochloridium parasite

This scene shows how Maxima feeds a kind of snail to Benji , but it is not any, but is the leucochloridium parasite, a parasite that in fesses the ocular peduncles of the slugs and controls them mentally. We reiterate that we do not want to say anything about this, we can only comment that you enjoy the series until the end.

Soulslike 2D Metroidvania Souldiers coming next year

Image
Punitive game fans should be ready for the adventure of their lives. Future in the spring 2022, Retro Forge Games Souldiers merged a gameplay similar to that of Souls with Metroidvania level exploration. By focusing on action, aldiers allows players to choose from 3 classes. These classes include an archer, a spell launcher and a sword handling scout. These classes bring full upgrade paths and 3 completely different game styles for easy replay. Similar to other games Soulsborne, there is a movement of parade and dodge. The Metroidvania elements come from the Level Design. There is a decent amount of platform involved in the game and probably involves a multi-level exploration design. For example, players could be exploited in an area, some paths being unlocked by a capacity that is only granted to the player later in the game. For now, we do not have much information about the game, which is disturbing with a launch date so close. The 16-bit graphics are incredible and we are con...
