When talking about Chainsaw Man, the name Makima instantly brings to mind a character who is as mysterious as she is powerful.

Whether you're a seasoned fan or just getting into the series, you’ve probably noticed that Makima’s presence has sparked quite a bit of buzz – and not just because of her terrifying abilities.

Today, we’re diving into a playful and cheeky topic: Makima’s oppai!

The "Plot" of Chainsaw Man

Chainsaw Man is anything but your typical Shonen series. The series is known for its dark, gritty atmosphere, filled with intense action, shocking twists, and deep psychological exploration

Set in a world where devils, fiends, and devil hunters coexist in a brutal battle for survival, the story follows Denji, a down-on-his-luck young man who fuses with his pet devil, Pochita, to become the titular Chainsaw Man.

Unlike many shonen manga, Chainsaw Man doesn’t rely on fanservice or light-hearted ecchi moments to keep viewers hooked. The series is dark and intense, focusing more on action and psychological depth than on giving fans the usual ecchi scenes.

But that hasn’t stopped fans from using their imaginations! From the official manga to fan art that pops up across the internet, Makima is often depicted in ways that exaggerate her figure, especially regarding her bust size. So, how does she really stack up?

In the world of anime, it’s not uncommon to see female characters with exaggerated features, especially when it comes to their bust size. Many series are known for giving their characters impossibly large proportions, catering to a fanbase that enjoys a bit of fanservice.

However, Chainsaw Man takes a different approach with Makima. Despite being one of the most prominent female characters in the series, Makima’s portrayal is pretty modest. Based on the manga and official art, Makima’s bust size is likely around a B cup – far from the oversized proportions often seen in other anime.

By keeping her design grounded and realistic, the creators emphasize that Makima’s allure comes from who she is, not from how she looks.

Makima’s B cup isn’t meant to catch the eye in a traditional, sexualized sense. As a matter of fact, she's always fully clothed in the entire series. This plays into her persona as a character who doesn’t need to rely on her physical attributes to command attention.

While Chainsaw Man presents Makima as a character with a modest and realistic figure, the world of fan art often tells a different story.

In the otaku community, Makima’s figure is frequently reimagined, with her bust size enhanced far beyond what we see in the official manga or anime. This divergence from her canonical portrayal has become a notable trend, with many fan artists choosing to amplify her physical attributes in ways that are, well, impossible to ignore.

In fan art, Makima is often depicted with a much larger bust size, sometimes to the point where it’s clear that the artist is playing up the exaggeration for dramatic effect.

These interpretations create a version of Makima that fits more closely with the typical anime trope of the big-busted, seductive female character, even though this isn’t how she’s originally presented.

So, why do fans choose to portray Makima with a larger bust size?

Given that Chainsaw Man is notably devoid of traditional fanservice, fans may be compensating by creating their own versions of Makima that align more with the ecchi elements seen in other anime.

Sometimes, the artist takes creative liberties to highlight aspects of the character that they find particularly compelling or attractive.

There’s a certain appeal in these exaggerated portrayals – they tap into fantasy, allowing fans to explore a different side of a character that isn’t necessarily present in the source material.

By drawing Makima with a bigger bust and a more sensual appearance, fans can indulge in the type of content that Chainsaw Man deliberately avoids.

The Lack of Fanservice

In a world where fanservice is pretty much a staple, Chainsaw Man really stands out by steering clear of it altogether. While lots of anime and manga throw in ecchi scenes or design characters with provocative looks to keep fans hooked, Chainsaw Man does things a bit differently.

Instead of relying on sexualization, this series sticks to its dark, intense vibe, focusing on plot twists, character development, and the raw emotions that keep you on the edge of your seat.

Makima still manages to grab everyone’s attention. But it’s not because of how she’s drawn or any suggestive scenes. It’s her complex personality, those mysterious motives, and the way she just exudes power, especially during the Public Safety Saga, that make her so captivating.

Personally, I find Makima to be one of the most compelling characters in Chainsaw Man because of who she is, not how she looks. Her ability to manipulate, her cool demeanor, and the power she holds over others make her stand out in a world already filled with unforgettable characters.

Honestly, the story is so gripping that it doesn’t need any of the usual fanservice to keep you invested!
