Chainsaw Man (Season 1, 2022, Japan)

Directors: Ryu Nakayama & Masato Nakazono

Writer: Hiroshi Seko

Mini-review:

The buzz and hype for this anime is insane and all my friends are obsessed with it, so my expectations were so sky-high that I felt like there was no way it could met them. And yet, not only did it meet them, it actually surpassed them in every single way. The story moves at the perfect pace and pretty much all of the characters are unhinged and deranged in the most charming of ways. Also, the world-building feels so refreshing, even though we've had lots of animes about demons in the last few years. But, as good as the material itself is, the thing that I truly need to highlight is the animation and the aesthetic. Pretty much every episode feels like a 20 minute long movie, that's how amazing it is. Everything about it is so cinematic and stunning, seriously. I can't wait for the second season, and it's hard to accept that we probably won't get it until 2024. But if that's what they need to maintain the same quality level, so be it.

Chainsaw Man Starter Rope Cast Interview: Ai Fairouz

How did you feel when you got the role of Power?

It's kind of cliché, but really really happy… because I've always loved Chainsaw Man and I thought "I just want to audition!" I was thinking, even if it's difficult, I just want to take on the challenge. But as the selection process progressed, I started feeling more like, "I'm definitely going to play Power-chan!" My manager and I worked together to create the performance and figure out "Would Power-chan talk like this?", so I was happy when the role was decided.

How did you develop your performance during recording?

It was a little hard to compare and adjust our different mental images of Power. At first, I spoke with my natural voice, but Director Nakayama wanted more of a "younger sister" feeling, so I changed to a higher voice. However, if you go too high, it comes off like you're trying to flirt, so that adjustment was challenging. Also, I asked Director Nakayama how he chose the cast, and he said, "I chose people whose voices I felt matched the nature of the characters," and that made my hesitation disappear. I realized I just needed to act natural without overthinking, and I could adjust my performance accordingly.

What scene would you like people to pay attention to in episode 2, where Power first appears?

It was also in the teaser PV, but the scene where Power jumps off the building has amazing movement. It's that movement that can only be seen in anime, so definitely pay attention! For Power's lines, it was especially fun to act out the last line, "The kill is mine! Gahahahaha!" I laughed as hard as I could. I was recording with Toya-kun, who plays Denji, and Sakata-kun, who plays Aki, and they both laughed, so I was happy. I was asked to act naturally, but she's an inhuman character, so I tried a lot of things when performing, I hope people will pay attention to that. We also paid special attention to the recording environment, like changing the microphone position for each character and line, so I'm looking forward to seeing the finished anime!

What did you think of the original Chainsaw Man manga?

I remember reading because I saw it in a bookstore and liked the illustrations, and I was shocked by the phrase "Tomato Devil" (laughs). The protagonists' life was also shocking. After reading the entire series, I really realized that this is an avant-garde work, nothing like this has been made before. The art is a combination of retro and pop, with color schemes that only Fujimoto-sensei could create, and the story is set in present-day but with a twist I've never seen before, and I thought it was very unique.

What do you think is the appeal of Power?

She has the worst personality, but you can't hate her. Also, I think what's appealing about her is that she's honest about her feelings. Usually, she says absurd things like "Let me kill people when I want to!" However, when Nyako is swallowed by Bat Devil, she openly expresses her feelings to Denji, saying "I understand your feelings." That kind of honesty is really charming.

Is there any way you personally connect with Power?

It would be bad if we could understand each other (laughs), but I think she would be me if I could say everything I wanted to say. For example, if you see a group of people walking spread out on a narrow street, you'd want them to move a little, right? I would say "excuse me," and then pass, but Power would say "Get out of the way, human!" and push through.

Do you have a message for the fans?

The anime has been made with excellent quality, it won't disappoint fans of the original work or new fans of the anime, so when you watch, please pay attention to each and every detail.

Translation notes:

Ai says 「チェンソーマン」は元々大好きな作品, which would directly translate to something like "Chainsaw Man has always been a work I love," or "Chainsaw Man has always been my favorite work," but that sounds unnatural in English, so I translated it to keep the same meaning while sounding more natural by saying "I've always loved Chainsaw Man".

Ai says という気持ちが強くなっていったんです, meaning her feeling became stronger, but I translated it to sound a bit more natural in English.

When Ai mentions Power's line in episode 2, I used the official English translation of the line instead of re-translating it from the interview.

Translated（笑） to (laughs).
