Fami is a major antagonist in the second part of the Chainsaw Man manga.
Fami doesn’t stand the comparison to Makima.
There’s still a lot to be told about her, so it’s too early to come to conclusions.
Chainsaw Man spoilers ahead!
The second part of the Chainsaw Man manga introduced a lot of new characters. Fami is a major antagonist of the series, one of the four horsemen and a Famine Devil, which embodies the fear of famine and starvation. Due to her being such an important character, fans were hoping to have a truly intricate villain, but why do they call her a waste of a horseman slot then?
We can’t help but compare Fami to Makima
The main complaint seems to be that Fami doesn’t stand the comparison to Makima. The Control Devil (Makima) was such a complex and compelling Chainsaw Man villain, that she got fans talking about her for ages. From mindless admiration to fierce anger — she manages to make the fandom feel all types of emotions. Fami, on the other hand, is not so good at that. It’s not for the lack of trying, though, since manga readers notice some similarities to Makima, but they add that it all feels more like Fami’s just trying to be Makima and Fujimoto is pushing her into a similar direction.
Fami’s motives are not so compelling and some fans find her overall uninteresting. They say she’s rather obvious and lacks the depths and mystery the previous antagonists had. Makima used to be an incredible strategist, pulling strings and playing people like her pawns on a chessboard, and Fami lacks this grandiosity.
Fami or Makima?
She’s not so bad, she’s just different
However, some fans think the comparison to Makima is exactly the issue with the perception of Fami. If you don’t see her as a Makima replacement and try to see her as an original character, you will understand her true appeal.
Fami’s comedic aspect is also questionable. While some find it rather entertaining and fun, some see it as inappropriate and unserious. Fami’s introduction was done masterfully: she comes out of nowhere, surprises the manga readers with a couple of badass lines and promises some chaos. And fans wish Fami stayed this way and kept her emotionless attitude instead of having a goofy vibe.
But there is still hope and expectations for Fami. The second part of the Chainsaw Man manga is yet to be finished, and there might be more in store for this character in the future. So let’s just give her the benefit of the doubt and some extra time to develop.
Why don’t fans find her that enjoyable?
