It has the perfect mix of character development, action, and great music that just really clicked for me. It&#8217;s been years since I watched the series, so I was presently surprised when I found the new movie was coming to Crunchyroll late last month.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">IGN&#8217;s review of Chainsaw Man \u2013 The Movie: Reze Arc aptly called it the &#8220;feel-bad rom-com of the year&#8221;, which for some may be a turn-off. I personally loved it. I thought it was a beautifully done story about two similarly broken souls somehow finding a way to connect via mutual destruction. If you haven&#8217;t seen it yet, I highly recommend that you do.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">As for where to actually watch it, Crunchyroll is your best bet right now. It&#8217;s available with any of the Crunchyroll streaming plans, two of which are currently deeply discounted for new subscribers. Outside of the anime streaming service, it&#8217;s only available for $20 on VOD sites like Prime Video.<\/p>\n<div id=\"238494\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\"><span data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"238494\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img alt=\"Ani-May Streaming Deals\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/05\/07\/animay1-1778166120487.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/05\/07\/animay1-1778166120487.jpg?width=220&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">Ani-May Streaming Deals<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled=\"\" type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RatingLike.ea885513.svg?cors=1) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>6<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"solo-product-description\" class=\"description SoloProduct_description__emO_M\">\n<div data-cy=\"article-subtitle\" class=\"article jsx-3932497636 small\">\n<p>Get 3 months of Fan Crunchyroll for $1.99\/month or 3 months of Mega Fan Crunchyroll for $2.99\/month<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\">What to Expect From the Movie<\/h2>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-video\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The best way to get an idea of what the film is about is to watch the original trailer. Otherwise, I&#8217;ll give you a quick spoiler-free rundown of what to expect. The story is centered around Denji, of course, but more around his human side than his Chainsaw Man persona. More specifically, the film is focused on his heart and whether it belongs to Makima or a new girl he just met named Reze.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The film itself is pretty low on action or violence initially, but the build-up hits pretty hard, only to suddenly take a major turn later on. With a runtime of 141 minutes, I found it to have plenty of time to solidify some really interesting themes about human connection while still providing an incredible soundtrack amid action-packed scenes.<\/p>\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">Is Crunchyroll worth it?<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">I&#8217;ve had a Crunchyroll subscription for about a year now and have actually used it quite a bit. A lot of the anime included on the service is also available on Netflix or Hulu, but it&#8217;s still the overall best anime streaming service out there. So with that in mind, it&#8217;s really only worth your subscription dollars if you watch a lot of anime. I originally got my subscription to watch Solo Leveling, but I only kept it for longer because I enjoyed having a hub for anime I can quickly get to.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Even if you don&#8217;t want a new monthly service charge added to your bill, I&#8217;d say it&#8217;s worth the cost of entry for certain exclusives. The Chainsaw Man movie costs $20 to stream outside of Crunchyroll right now, and if you&#8217;re a new or returning subscriber, you can get your first 3 months for just $1.99.<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"poll-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Jacob Kienlen is a Senior Audience Development Strategist and Writer for IGN.
