IGN just gave Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc and Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 1 surprisingly low scores — again.
But here’s the truth: anime fans don’t need validation from critics who judge these films like Hollywood dramas.

In this video, we break down why IGN’s system fails to understand anime storytelling, why these movies are not meant to be “standalone,” and why fans connect through emotion, not critic logic.

Because anime isn’t about impressing review sites —
it’s about impacting hearts.

Why IGN rated Chainsaw Man and Demon Slayer low

The difference between anime arcs and standalone films

Why anime fans don’t need critic approval
