Makima Is WAY Stronger Than You Realize. 

It would be cool if for a hypothetical "Chainsaw Man Part 3:" that Tatsuki Fujimoto makes it a prequel which actually shows us Makima's life from when she was a teenager, up until she joined the Public Safety Devil Hunters. This could expand further on the lore of the series, the history of the World, how things were when she was younger, and her difficulties working with people, due to her Control Devil power. Plenty of horror elements could be implemented into this, too, as I'm sure she did a LOT of bad stuff when she was younger. This in turn; would also make the sales explode. Part 2 (in my opinion) is very underrated, and has redeeming qualities to it that many are overlooking, however, this would be a far more successful continuation of the manga. Some side-notes I'd also like to add for further clarification: This video is about a prime, composite Makima. 1. At around 17:00, when I'm talking about "Planetary and Beyond" I'm referring to The Darkness Devil, here. I'm trying to showcase how far above it scales compared to The Gun Devil. You could go crazy with The Darkness Devil scaling, and even imply it could control the concept of Darkness itself, which could mean it has authority over any place in the Universe which is dark + the battle speed argument I made. 2. If Makima uses Santa Claus' abilities, or the Zombie Devil, she could be a major world-wide problem. 3. She might have mind resistance hax towards The Cosmic Devil. Potentially would assist her if she fought someone like Gojo? 4. When she makes people explode, it may actually be her commanding the individual to implode. Also, her not doing it to the Katana Devil, is either because he can regenerate, or because she doesn't know his legitimate name. However, Akane was terrified they were gonna get taken out, too, so I believe it's the lack of knowledge of his name. 5. If I have forgotten anything, please remind me in the comment section. I can cover anything I may have missed, in the second video on The Chainsaw Man. - If you're a Chainsaw Man fan, and you want me to keep covering this series, simply like the video, share it with your friends, and subscribe. Thank you all for reading!

Makima’s rizz is so strong she made the Internet bark like a dog for a month, that really just say how terrifying her control over people really is .🐱

I think it should be noted that Makima was NOT erased from existence by getting eaten by Denji, since she was eaten by Denji and not the chainsaw man. We know this since she DID come back again in the form of Najuta. The actual reason Makima died when consumed by Denji was because her power only reflected attacks and Denji didn't see it as an attack, but rather as an act of love.

i like how makima's control theme even goes down to how she dresses, everything neat, tidy, orderly--even her hair, bound and subdued--controlled into submission via a braid

THANK you. Seeing her lose to Demon Slayer characters in “who would win” polls is *BLASPHEMY.*

Great video. Small bit of perspective - The Primal Fears are all supposed to be fears that we have instinctively, so Darkness and Falling are equals. The Falling Devil not only represents the instinctual fear of physically falling, but the fear of failing, regressing, deteriorating, ect. It's the fear of metaphorically falling. Same type of logic goes toward the Darkness Devil, which is why there are themes of general mutilation and space included in it.

Makima really boundless with how many grown men she got barking for her

Honestly, Makima is a great analogy to the "Big Brother", AKA any autoritharian state. The way characters fear she is there even when It's impossible for her to be listening is basically what peple face under a police state of a Mao or Stalin. The difference is that dictators can only project this omnipresence while Makima literally has such reach. In other words, SHE KNOWS WHEN YOU'RE FAPPING TO HER.

When he was talking about CSM fans not understanding themes all I could think of was the Reading Comprehension Devil gif

It’s crazy that the only reason why Makima lost was because she was just so powerful that the only thing she could do was look down on humans. Ultimately came back to bite her on every part of her body but at least she took a lot of people down with her.

7:11 Fun fact: The arms in the back of the darkness devil actually spell out "Makima"

Clyde admiring the makima writing out of experience😂

It's just crazy to me that most of the youtube videos I saw about Makima vs X(specifically Gojo from JJK), Gojo is always considered to "win and it's not even close", when in reality, it's just crazy stupid how powerful Makima is when she basically has control over the entire world, every devil hunter and their contracts, and all the possible combinations of their powers and abilities that she can easily find a way to just kill Gojo without having to pass through his infinity. They constantly downplay her full capabilities, put her in positions that normally she would never be in, and act as if her defeat to Denji was something that happened to her while in full desperation to beat him with all of her abilities, when in reality, she more or less just let it all happen.

So glad you're giving Makima the respect she deserves! Such a cool character. She's still my favorite.

So glad ur covering this series. As big as it is, I feel like it still doesn't get enough love.

Makima doesnt scale to Darkness Devil, she is not a primal fear. The only thing she could have done there was to escape. Whilst she made Darkness bleed, it instahealed itself 1 panel later. Makima knew that she coudnt kill it herself. She doesnt go "toe-to-toe" with Darkness nor can she control it ever. Same thing could be said to Falling Devil since she too is a primal fear. Also many Devils can be considered "immortals" so her immortality isnt really something that "scales her" since Darkness could kill her over and over just pointing at her and Darkness only needs Dark to regenerate(which he literally creates with his presence).

Whats crazy about Makima is that she pretty much scales higher as time goes on and she gains more powers. Like her current incarnation is weaker right now...but she could scale just as hard. Makima was likely much weaker with just her base powers when she began but she worked her way up into being able to go toe to toe with Darkness. I don't think at a base level she is on his tier (her immortality isn't inherent, she had to make that contract to get it and would likely lose to a lot of characters without it). But her abilities are so versatile that they give her the ability to almost give herself whatever she wants in terms of controlling people who have one she wants.

The most fascinating thing for me about Makima, is how much she is suffocate you just for her presence, she makes you uncomfortable not doing much, so this for me is pure geniality coming from Fujimoto's art and script.

Can't wait for the anime to get into more of the feats and insane Makima moments. Really hope they do her character justice as the story gets more insane

15:09 Or she could just do it herself with BANG, Makima being able to cause harm to The Darkness Devil would already put her a few steps higher than The Gun Devil

She can use the animal to spy so that means she uses them to get people's names so she can kill them from range. For the Yakuza she saved Aki from, she got their names from the other Yakuza she threatened (before killing them all too) so she didn't need animals there.

she can only control stuff the "deems" below her. it's a purely ego-based power. if she think herself better than darkness, she can control it. she must truely believe it tho, she can't pretend or lie to herself. But if she thinks herself better, she she can kill it.

I feel like as a villain makima is underrated I don't know just everytime I see people talk about her it's always about her looks or

Ahhhh SHIT! Clyde’s gettin’ into Chainsaw Man!!! The Powerscaling Devil is a terrifying foe indeed lol

Regarding that note in the bit about Makima's defeat (starting at 24:14), Chapter 96 page 8 states that it's due to Power's blood that her regen was slowed

Clyde character design looks like Denji lost brother haha 😂😂

Clyde Chainsaw man content? I am here for it

Makima is soo cool man, easily one of the best characters to come out of Shonen recently

Personally I don't think Makima scales to the darkness devil. Hurting someone and being equal to them isn't the same thing. You can make the argument that the darkness devil was less damaged and more surprised that Makima actually damaged it. I don't see primal fear devils getting challenged in any way very often.

Makima is great villain

Definitely one of the strongest characters in Chainsaw Man so far.

We need more chainsaw man content too, keep it up Clyde!

AWESOME video was fun to do the animation with you and I'm LIVING for the Clyde chainsaw man content I can't waittt for more

Makima wasn’t erased when Denji consumed her, if that was the case then nayuta wouldn’t be a thing. Only true form pochita can erase things by consuming them

Okay buddy. Simping for Makima is not okay in today's social landscape

1:19 hearing his angelic voice in my ears was the perfect touch to your video 😩

The boi CLYDE with a CSM upload?!?!?

makima: "bark for me." gojo: "meow." makima:

Just reread the manga and the story really does feel different knowing about Makima, I was so interested in her I didn’t realise how manipulative she was to Denji

To be fair... When Makima steps out of train car to meet Tendo and Kurose was way better shown in anime than in manga. The absolute terror in Makima's eyes is what always catches my eyes. This feeling doesn't occur to me when reading it on manga...

Like CSM, Gantz is a manga where the mystery, the suspense, and the pacing are always interesting with each chapter. I urge everyone to at the very least read it.

The beginning of the video really speaks to me because I’m struggling enjoying new series but now I’m more interested in watching/reading Chainsaw Man

Awesome new editing style!! 🔥🔥

Awesome video really hope you can make more on the series

The only reason Makima lost was because A. She wanted to retrieve Pochita so couldn’t obliterate Denji and B. Power’s blood could significantly slow her regeneration.

humans are born with the innate fear of falling, it’s inavoidable. meanwhile such things as darkness or fear or dark are relitive to some (blindness, colorblind) since they don’t have those concepts. I think falling devil is pretty fairly scaled

Mannnn you put it sooo darn well! Especially from 2:10 to 2:50 everything you said about Makima is so true. For me she literally felt like a control demon for real, cos i cant shake off her memory and she just sticks!! Apart from super well written the presence itself is so....idk man. Lowkey felt bad seeing her die!

I'm glad to see you uploading again

As a chainsaw man enjoyer I see this as an absolute win

Great video, also nice DMC reference Makima's an amazing character and I can't wait to see what kinda villain(s) Fujimoto's cooking for part 2 (Also yes please do a Chainsaw Man video)

Normally power scaling videos drive me crazy cuz most of the time i desagre with almost everything but this is a great video overall, even a great character analysis hope u keep doing CSM content rn is my favorite new gen along side JJJ and Sakamoto days

It's nice top see you posting again clyde.

Note: I am a passive viewer of Chainsaw man. When I first saw Makima's face, it gave me a feeling of "something is not right about her" and then later on I discovered the door scene. At that point I realised what that feeling was. Seeing her face made my brain immediately realized "She is an enemy". And now everytime I see Makima, I can think of only one thing: Murder, murder, murder!!!

Welcome back Clyde missed You bro glad to have u back and love the content

Didnt weakend csm react to a beam of light from the angel devil? I could have sworn there was something like that

Clyde you better not stop the uploads ur ma fav youtuber

This vid is awesome Clyde! We want more

Falling is one of the only fears we’re born with and isn’t a learned one. Falling devil is definitely a primal fear and a strong one at that.

I think Makima is easily one of the greatest villains in the history of fiction. Certainly THE greatest female villain I’ve ever read.

After watching this video, I realize that Aizen VS Makima would go fucking hard as either a Writing Comparison or Fight Animation.

I love Chainsaw man so much the story instantly hooked me I binged the first part in a day it is amazing I can’t wait to see where it goes, I’m glad you enjoy it too Clyde

Clyde is a barker too, oh no 😢 but for real CSM manga, I started from the beginning and loved it, plus the anime was well done to me and part 2 been dope but Power Best Girl with Makima a character I hate but also appreciate a lot as an antagonists

anime fans whenever they see one frame of cgi: WHAT UNHOLY SHIT IS THIS

Amazing video man, keep up the great work 🔥

Very well made analysis!

While I think how she was taken out was a little anticlimactic, I still enjoyed Makima's entire arc more than almost any other character in a long time, what an absolutely amazing character.

editing is fire

I hope to see another Chainsaw Man video. This one was so well done 👏

5:45 I think it might be implied that Aki is under her 'control' here.

The Chainsaw Man fandom doesn't understand the themes because they're all under the control of the Reading Comprehension Devil

I always knew Mommyka was OP, but not to this extent. In a sense, she's kinda like female Aizen, thanks for the CSM video!

Great vid Clyde so happy to see u doing well ❤ luv u

I'm glad your back

NOW START MAKING THAT TRUE FORM CHAINSAW MAN VIDEO CLYDE!!! RIGHT NOW!!! NO BREAKS!!!!

WE’RE EATING NOW!!!

Makima is terrifying in some ways i think of her like the personification of gaslighting and manipulation, there could be real people that manipulative(similar reason i was terrifiedof frolo as a child). I like Power she's awesome and fairly innocent

Makima was looking through Aki's eyes when she helped him in that hallway as she can see by proxy any living thing she controls.

My prayers have been answered

26:35 Actually... weren't first chainsaws originally invented as a tool for assisting in *childbirth*?

man out of all the video I watched from you this was probably my favourite one the chainsaw universe is just so interesting to listen about

The future devil just dancing while everyone else is doing something important is just funny

Gots a question, if the Seven Deadly Sins were ever included in the story HYPOTHETICALLY (i know it wont happen, they're temptations not fear) where would they scale in your opinion? Cuz if they're temptations, that mean everyone must've done them at least once in their lives no?

Chainsaw Man goodness

The Falling Devil is actually equal to the Darkness Devil, because the concept of "primal fears" comes from a study that lists Darkness and Falling as the two fears that even babies are born with. This is why Falling Devil is even a Primal Fear at all. (Another relevant study for the series lists a hierarchy of fears, with Death as number 1 and Loss of Control as number 3. Coincidentally, all three horsemen that aren't Death have abilities that let them take ownership and control of others, Makima is just the most direct example of that. Also... Mutilation seems like a pretty decent fit for Chainsaw Man.)

I love the editing on this vid

The falling devil is widely feared because humans have a natural instinct to fear falling. We associate it with danger and harm, making it a deeply rooted fear from a young age. While darkness is also a significant fear, it is often slightly less feared than falling because darkness is a more abstract concept that does not pose an immediate physical threat.

And then we have Denji Pochita Form, who scales above makima

Would love to see a video about the chainsaw man. Great video as always

on 19:16 it may hint that it was Makima who made Himeno barf up while kissing Denji with her ability to control people. just my thought tho

She's so powerful she controls people in the real world

absolute fire 🔥

Clyde, with chainsaw man being my favorite manga ever, I am 100% DOWN for more chainsaw man videos

Oh yeah its allllll coming together

Long story short: Makima solos a lot of shit

I think people overestimate a bit how much Makima did to Darkness Devil she got the shot off on him just by the element of surprise and even then he reacted to it and after that, he just folded her.

For speed you didn’t cover the fact that Makima’s usage of 1000 years with the angel devil’s ability to create a spear moved so fast that it transformed into a beam of light, which radiated light so it isn’t as fast as light, but it almost instantaneously was in front of Kobeni. You could easily argue the spear to be traveling at the speed of lightning. Pochita’s true form moved a short distance in front of Kobeni in that moment to tank the spear head on which absolutely totaled him. Another feat of true form Pochita which backs up that kind of speed is when surrounded by a group of weapon hybrids he immediately propelled himself and the crossbow hybrid through several buildings while it cut to a panel with the weapon devils in almost the exact same position as before. That kind of speed is arguably near light, and with the fact that Makima and Pochita in a lesser form without Denji were fighting at relatively equal speeds, even if that form of Pochita was half of Pochita’s true form power, that is still half the speed of lightning. Denji in the gun devil fight moved a distance of 30-50ish feet in front of a bystander to intercept a bullet that was right in front of her with his body, a feat that scales to hypersonic, and darkness devil with darkness manipulation moved across a field a decently sized distance virtually instantaneously into the middle of the 4th special division taking all their arms absolutely blitzing other speedsters such as Quanxi. When Quanxi went to attack the darkness devil and was right in front of its face with a kick, her and many others in the vicinity of the front of Darkness devil were immediately sliced up in many places by all of its arms while it made a leaning motion. Makima was able to relatively react with the movements of her appendages at the same time as darkness devil, scaling her to slightly similar speeds. Quanxi even though faced with probable death in the face of Makima chose not to fight at all.

My love got her own video 😍😍😍😍

I'm more of a Power guy myself...

HE'S BAAAAACK

SO GLAD YOURE BACK CLYDE. W UPLOAD 🖤
