Chainsaw Man (2018-2026) Both Parts review
The entire population of Japan's lifes connected to her. Which is a rather ridiculous concept to imagine. It gets revealed Pochita disguised himself as Chainsaw Man. The real Denji with a chainsaw cuts her up. Using Power's blood, he devours Makima in several meals. Effectively stopping her in the story. Some select stuff was introduced for foreshadowing Part 2.

Brotato (GOG version) review
Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I previously reviewed Brotato last year. But man after getting back into the game now on GOG. I quickly realized I only touched the surface of this game!!! I am going to be honest this has to be among the greatest indie video games I ever played!!! Brotato is a true master piece that deserves more respect.
Here is a link to my old review of the same game down below...
https://jackred1989.blogspot.com/2025/01/brotato-2023-review.html
Brotato (2026) GOG version
In Brotato, you are playing as a lot of characters that so happened to be potatoes. Potatoes is among my favorite vegetables to begin with. I know that sounds silly, it technically is. But man a lot of them ended up being awesome characters. I recently took a little over a week to fully achievement hunt the game. Which was a rather massive grind of a process.
Surprisingly, I never once felt burnt out during that entire process. Why because this game really is insanely fun!!! You select a character that all differs in some way. Some actually ended up being a rather unique experience. It truly was mind blowing how well those were pulled off. Don't worry I'll discuss some of those shortly.
Let's take Arms Dealer for an example. Unlike most characters that maintains weapons you have. Every single wave, he needs to get new weapons. But weapon prices are notably lower. You can quickly get stock up with weapons. Gangster replaced lock option for stealing. Now the lock option would keep selected items or weapons.
When you come back into the store in between waves. You could go for them or hold off until you have enough. Well for him you have the option to steal anything from the store. However the more often you do that. The higher chances of facing more elites during waves. Elites can be tough enemies to deal with. Beast Master lacks the ability to attack enemies.
Thankfully, your usual stat upgrades now applies directly to your pets. Which was recently added into the game free through an update. Before I go any further, these pets truly brought new life into this game. A lot of them can be surprisingly strong. I still felt the strongest of them all. I know some may disagree with me.
Curious is a truly broken character in this game. He quickly becomes powerful the more items or weapons that aren't the same. Basically keep getting newer items added to see this guy blow through the toughest of enemies. I know this already sounds ridiculous of course is. This also allows the player even with the cons to truly experience the game how the developers intended it.
To allow yourself the curiosity of building set ups on the fly. You gotta adapt fast in this game or you won't get far. You could play up to the twentieth wave or beyond through Endless Mode. Which can be changed later into the run. If you really wanna see how insane this game can get? Endless Mode with a couple characters is a fun time you won't forget.
Like similar games, the game heavily randomizes several aspects. Like which enemies could show up or what might be in the store? Essentially every run is going to be different making it incredibly easy to replay again. Currently there are sixty two characters in the game. I couldn't even believe how much went into this game?
In all honestly, I'm deeply impressed as well as really inspired. There also local co-op up to three other players. It's a game you can use the bare minimum to play. In actual waves, I mostly used my left thumb. Which is great if something were to happen, I still have something I love I could still play. Brotato plays insanely well on my computer.
There's two maps that do differ with their own soundtracks. The default map is on the surface of an alien planet. Very few characters alter the size of the map you play on. For Old, it's a lot smaller than everyone else. In vice versa, Explorer has the biggest map size imaginable. It's incredibly big that could make or break runs depending on your set ups.
Very few characters like Multitasker and Baby can go beyond the usual weapon limits. Which does not include pets or turrets. Most characters can wield up to six weapons. One Armed sadly can only wield one weapon. Multitasker can wield up to twelve weapons while Baby could get upgraded to double that. Yes you can have all of them be the same weapon.
The actual achievement/trophy hunting does differ. It turns out both Xbox and PS versions doesn't include winning runs as everyone on the DLC map. But in the PC version, you had to do that. I ended up going from the first character from left to right on each row on the DLC map portion. I didn't even die during those runs.
Brotato has a great soundtrack. On GOG, you could buy the two soundtracks in a few formats. Before I even started writing this, I listened to both soundtracks. In every possible way, Brotato really delivers!!! This game even allows you to leave. You can resume runs after you quickly load back in. I haven't played another similar game that does it surprisingly.
This by itself helps out so much in the long run. Brotato is a play of bro and potatoes just in case anyone was wondering. This is why every playable character male with virtually no female characters at all. I also gotta say a lot of them looks surprisingly awesome. Of course, some of them like Curious looks funny.
I really liked when you get items. Regardless who you are playing as appearance changes. A rather unique feature I wish more of them do. This is great for the characters you dislike the appearance of. You always start from scratch for every run. But you could gain something with every failed attempt. The only true way to lose is to quit up.
I highly encourage you to continue on going!!! Yes this is going to seem overwhelming. Overwhelming have you seen a good amount of stuff within Vampire Survivors. This is nothing compared to that or Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor. Yes I heard they're adding a fifth dwarf to the game. Back to Brotato, for an indie game I didn't expect it to be this fun!!!
This is the kind of games that quickly burnt out people. Yet I was able to go the full distance truly happy having a lot of fun. Brotato is possibly among the greatest video games in existence. It may not look like much but trust me Brotato is really worth your time. You aren't going to break your wallets or bank accounts to get everything either.
I actually gotten this along a few games within the same purchase. If you wanna talk about mind blowing amount of content. Just the usual GOG purchases I make occasionally. Brotato is a lot smaller in size making it great for consoles as well as your computers. This is proof, developers doesn't need to keep going bigger in size.
Sometimes, you simply need a game that's packed with content being a lot smaller. In theory, a lot more people could play these over many AAA titles. Nine out of ten times, Brotato easily going to win!!! This game screams perfection at it's core. Brotato is a game that forever changed the genre. Possibly helped opened the gaming world's eyes to some truly amazing indie developers.
I previously voted as well as wrote a comment on the now turned down page for GOG Wishlist for game. I was beyond words happy Brotato finally gotten onto GOG. The game haven't been there an month here we are!!! Being the only rerelease or any actual release I played of this year. Right now, I can say Brotato is my Game of the Year.
I really felt Brotato deserves that!!! You are getting such amazing content. No major flaws to speak of that ruins the experience enough. here's something for everyone in this game. A very huge amount of items and weapons to keep things refreshing. Randomizing the right aspects allows reruns to remain refreshing as well as very fun.

Horror St. Patrick's Day Double Feature reviews
Wednesday, March 11, 2026
My thoughts on two upcoming public domain horror movies
Instead of Jason hunting campers as well as counselors, it's the Tinman!!! I actually was more on board with Popeye doing the same. Popeye is actually scarier within that concept. Especially to a robot that moves slow as well as bulky. Almost like classic tank controls within PS1 era video games.
Death Battle Fight Prediction: Jotaro (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure) vs Yuta (Jujutsu Kaisen)
Death Battle Fight Prediction: Bakugo (My Hero Academia) vs Reze (Chainsaw Man)
Even considering Chainsaw Man Part 2, no one moves that fast!!! She also specializes in faster explosive attacks. Two methods to get right back into a fight. Either pull her cord or drinking blood. Devils can regenerate from the worst injuries with drinking blood. Unfortunately, she can't use her powers while being wet.
Death Battle Fight Prediction: Denji (Chainsaw Man) vs Yuji (Jujutsu Kaisen) updated version
Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I previously done an Death Battle Fight Prediction blog on Denji vs Yuji a few years ago. However both had huge changes since that. Yes I got information on Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo despite not directly reading it. I kept a close eye on spoilers especially when Yuji shows up. I still been reading Chainsaw Man for months.
Verdict
Denji
This shouldn't be much of a surprise. Yuji did become stronger than Sukuna. Virtually now acting as the new Gojo/Sukuna replacement respectively. He only does one major fight in the entire sequel story against Mahito. I already knew this was going to suck you bet it did. Mahito was owned in record time even given a critical advantage mirroring his Domain Expansion.
Yuji now would win the experience advantage here. The story takes place sixty eight years after Jujutsu Kaisen manga. Which is a great advantage to have against Denji. The big issue is the author barely shown the readers enough to go on anything regarding his actual stats. Considering Dabura was equal to Sukuna by the jujutsu sorcerers of Earth.
In theory, it means Yuji stronger than him as well. Gojo didn't even get Sukuna to go full power before he died. I hate to say this Denji had a lot more going for him in Part 2 of Chainsaw Man. Eventually Chainsaw Devil became country level matching War Devil. Out of no where, Denji in a new merge form takes over in the fight.
This newer form held it's own against her. This speaks volumes because all the Jujutsu Kaisen stories never came close to country level stats. It's also easy to argue Denji is a lot faster. Chainsaw Devil at one point beheaded several agents with devil powers. This does include one of them jumped to still get his head cut off.
I know some might want me to bring up the fact Yuji became a cursed object. Now within Jujutsu Kaisen becoming a cursed object brings indestructible. They didn't reveal which form that's going to be. So we don't know if the user needs to wear him or devour em. Merge form still maintains the ability to erase devils on a conceptual level.
Which would apply to cursed objects for that matter. It's true Yuji could poison his blood. I don't think that would go far here. Especially when a single drop of blood or pulling his cord brings him back into a fight. Yuji can fight from a distance from his old style with Dismantle. I don't think the author ever explained what his Domain Expansion could do.
I also think Yuji who specialize in directly targeting the soul won't get far on Denji & Pochita. Their bond is essentially best friends with Pochita being a powerful devil to begin with. I do agree Yuji is smarter of the two hands down. Denji is still the more broken character here. Technically Yuji would have three ways to win this fight.
1. He swaps out hearts
2. He rips out Denji's heart then goes a long distance
3. He destroys his heart
There's issues with all those options. It's safe to assume Yuji is the best sorcerer in Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo. He should have a lot of theories to fall back on. Yet Chainsaw Devil or merged form still out stats him. Which also decreases his chances doing anything with his heart. Let's be honest, by default he would be force to destroy his heart.
Devils got regeneration that does increase depending how feared they are. Being a country level devil he can tank a lot of stuff to keep on moving. Just a level away from being a Primal Fear level devil. Who are considered unkillable beings!!! His regeneration trumps Yuji's blood manipulation. Multi city level doesn't even begin to compete with someone whose country level.
Denji actually been through crazier situations in comparison. Yuji kept up training while Denji just wings things. I know it's weird the character activating improving himself combat wise going to lose. Denji also has more difficult to predict moves. Majority of Yuji's moves involves getting in close. Which isn't a great idea against Denji.
As you can see there's some major changes to both characters. We got a sequel that barely used the previous protagonist to using the previous one a lot more. This is essentially a better fight than the upcoming Bakugo vs Reze episode. I don't think Yuji going to get far here. It's debatable how far he could go with help as well.
I also should point out again with help, Yuji prevents more cursed spirits from existing. Even he knew eventually they would come back. We nearly had a similar process in Chainsaw Man happened. Until Pochita sacrifice himself to make things right. The difference is Yuji needed help to do something like that.
In vice versa, either Chainsaw Devil or merge form can easily erase devils from existence by devouring em. At one point, he devoured the Death Devil aka the strongest devil in existence. Which removed death entirely from the world. Again she was a Primal Fear level being whose powers affects the entire world!!!
I also gotta mention Chainsaw Devil devouring many devils in Aging Devil arc erasing them. If he coughs up any devils those concepts exists again. Such a ridiculous power to have indeed. Yuji also has a limited amount of cursed energy. Even if he attempts to play things safe. Really not happening against Denji!!!
We have a limited amount of cursed energy against two methods to get right back into a fight. It's true sometimes someone else needs to pull his cord. Let's be honest, Yuji lucky to get him to bleed a little bit. He would be a little lucky to cut one of his arms off with Dismantle. Decapitation is a relatively minor thing to devils especially weapon hybrids like Denji.
Denji can survive getting shot in the head, getting beheaded, sliced in half and more with ease. As long as his heart is fine, he already has a form of immortality. Which Yuji lacks entirely making his situation worst. This is essentially why his main win option being destroy his heart. Denji could do the famous swap strategy like he's done to Makima to surprise attacking him.
Denji was surprisingly clever enough to devour Makima in a way none of the people in Japan had to die. Makima had a famous deal with the Prime Minister connecting everyone in Japan's lifes to her. This is largely due to his reasoning for going that route while using Power's blood. Who was the Blood Fiend prior to her death to prevent Makima's regeneration.
A questionable factor Denji might have. He previously agreed to assist the Death Devil against her sister, War Devil. She had several devils to help him out. Now they easily could view that as exclusively used against War Devil. Which I'm fine with Denji still going to win this fight. For the most part, devils are true to their word.
However some devils do lie about what they actually represent as shown in Part 2 of the story. Chainsaw Devil didn't make any deals to increase it's stats. Which is good for Yuji but it also means Chainsaw Devil being country level was out of fear. Power scaling in Chainsaw Man is essentially broken.
I know for JJK fans this is a rather difficult pill to swallow. Yuji barely getting any major action greatly hurts him here. People would have to throw out assumptions that likely won't add up. Not only that, Denji used to struggle hard against country level devils. He never faired well against a Primal Fear level though.
In the end, I gotta view it like Bakugo vs Reze here. Denji has plenty to go on especially in Part 2 of the story. In comparison, Yuji has plenty in Jujutsu Kaisen while barely has anything in it's sequel. I know in a way it comes off as Yuji didn't improve much, he obviously did. Ultimately, Denji has majority of the critical advantages to win this fight.
Winner
Denji (Chainsaw Man) again

Sega rant time
Sega is lucky to not already be shut down. A lot of their recent directions is really hurting them right now. I know they don't directly listen to their consumers. Maybe they should invest a lot into doing that more often. Especially when those sections with their fans might cause a few light bulbs to go off. We could only hope they realize how stupid some of these decisions are in the near future.
