About

Bark for Me refers to social media requests made by cosplayers of Chainsaw Man character Makima, and sometimes other characters, in which they demand that their followers "bark" for them. Such requests reference the dog-master dynamic between Chainsaw Man characters Makima and Denji. Those who respond to the request by typing out "bark" and "woof" in comments are sometimes referred to as Makima Woofers.

Origin

In the Chainsaw Man manga series, the dynamic between the characters Denji and Makima is similar to that of a dog and its master. On more than one occasion,[1][2] Makima calls Denji her "dog" or treats him like a pet, with Denji reciprocating (example panels shown below).


YOU FORGET? YOU'RE MY PET NOW. ALL YOU GET TO SAY IS "YES" OR "WOOF". D-DON'T NEED... 'S THAT MEAN ...? I DON'T NEED A DOG THAT SAYS NO. BARK! 第66話 本話完 DRIVE! FIGHT BACK! RIP AND TEAR! I WANT... ...TO BECOME A DOG ...ONE OF MAKIMA- SAN'S... 電鋸天 第80話车 本話完 AN UNEXPECTED DESIREM

Fans of the series have been reacting to fan art and cosplay of Makima by "barking," which means typing comments such as "woof" and "bark" to reference the dynamic between her and Denji in the manga. These commentators have sometimes been referred to as "Makima woofers."

On March 13th, 2021, Twitter[3] user @yoracrab (formerly @StormYorha) posted fan art of Makima, writing "makima told you to bark for her," with some users responding with comments imitating the barking of a dog (shown below, left). On March 19th, 2021, Twitter[4] user @todopokie posted a photograph of her Makima cosplay, writing "bark for me." The tweet received over 5,800 retweets and 54,300 likes, with multiple users responding in the requested manner. In the following days, screenshots of the thread received viral spread online; for example, on March 25th, Redditor EpicWafflesXV posted a screenshot to the /r/ChainsawMan[5] subreddit, where it gained over 3,000 upvotes (shown below, right).
