[Even the op song itself is the most viewed anime op of the year 2022, And all that in 3 months it overtook AOT rumbling which had the same numbers but took 11 months. Studio MAPPA's Chainsaw Man’s sales being so low are definitely a problem, but that begs the question of why they were so low, to begin with. While the art and animation were both great, at the same time, the color palette often felt rather muted, and the animation, in addition to often employing obvious CGI, didn’t always capture the fast-paced, bombastic action that the manga was known for. Those factors could easily make someone feel that the anime wasn’t living up to all the hype it was receiving, so they could have played a part in keeping people from buying Blu-rays and DVDs, especially with all the heavy competition of its season.

Chainsaw Man's anime adaptation was surprisingly controversial. Though global fans loved it, domestic fans felt something was slightly "off." Studio MAPPA received criticism for making the anime look too clean, with sluggish CGI work as one of the main complaints. Some fans also weren't happy that it replaced over-the-top visuals -- typically synonymous with shonen anime -- for a more cinematic approach. Many felt it didn't capture the manga's gritty atmosphere and criticized its rather bland color palette. This may be why the anime didn't do as well as expected sales-wise.Another reviewer stated that the manga's tone was scattered, going from eroticism and gag comedy to seriousness and brutal battles in a way that still made sense. However, this person felt like the anime only relied on sexual innuendo blended with a serious tone that didn't capture the essence of Chainsaw Man. Another called it "an animated adaptation that looks like a bad Japanese movie." On the plus side, many reviewers agree that the opening theme and the 12 different ending songs were a bright spot for the adaptation.

While Chainsaw man got this treatment because the director made a movie like series instead of an 'Anime'[which the Japanese fans seemed] & Some of his remarks were also not well received and all of this took down the Blu ray sales. Personally for me the anime was a Masterpiece, other than Mushoku Tensei & Eighty six I hardly claim any other anime as MP.
