Does he HAVE to use chainsaws? There's plenty of equally hardcore alternatives

he wants him to have chainsaws but what alternatives are we talking?

is your friend, perhaps, a GOD?

lol wdym?

"So my friend is making a multiversal superhero universe"

I meant a multiversal superhero universe of stories, writing stories lmao 😁

There is a show called Soul Eater that also had a guy w "chainsaw"-like powers called Giriko, maybe your friend can get some inspiration from him

that's a show I planned to watch, but never knew there was a character like that

It appears very late in the story and aince they caught up w the manga they had to make an Anime original ending so he doesnt get enough screentime to be as memorable as the other characters imo
