Ever since we covered the Chainsaw Man anime opening on Tuesday, Twitter has been filled with people pointing out all the movie references people have spotted. So, in light of that, we thought we might give our readers a chance to spot these references before showing you the answers.
The first episode premiered on Tuesday, so you can watch the anime right now and see this opening in all its glory. If you’d like, you can hear our thoughts on the first episode.
First, here is the opening for you to watch again before we give you any further information.
Here’s a list of all the movie references that can be found.
- Reservoir Dogs
- The Big Lebowski
- Pulp Fiction
- Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
- Attack of the Killer Tomatoes
- Sadako vs Kayako
- The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
- Constantine
- Don’t Look Up (1996)
- Jacob’s Ladder
- Fight Club
- No Country for Old Men
- Thor: Love & Thunder
Now we will start showing you the answers. These have been gathered thanks to Twitter user @NezukoSocial.
These references are definitely allowed to the talent and dedication of Shingo Yamashita who crafted the opening and peppered all of these great references into the animation. While this opening was absolutely finished a while ago, it’s funny considering that Constantine has been in the news lately with the recent sequel announcement and Keanu Reeves reprising the role of John Constantine.
We definitely didn’t catch most of these on the first pass through the video, and we’d love to hear how many you got.
