It all started quite promising and then gone terribly bad.

It started as a late 1800s early 1900s Japanese country-side story with a native girl and a war veteran. Both lost their loved ones and getting together what comes next.

Is perfectly realistic and good stakes at surviving.

But then the series turned out the be historical Japanese and less fantastic version of Garth Ennis's Preacher.

Gay man, that dresses an elephant costume that made out of the skin of dead men ? And swinging the trunk of the costume that covers his lower waist load (p-word) . WTF ?!

The anatomically impossible to live the type of character and face designs. too many characters to follow. And only true motivation is money? Not good enough man.

I dropped at 70+ chapters but I looked into 240 to 250th chapters and I felt like I still reading the 55th chapter of the series.

No development, no progression, no expanding. Same skin hunting, bounty thralling stuff. It's boring. After Golden Kamui, I wrote 109 chapters of Vinland Saga in 2 days only, and I finally aware of "what a good historical war seinen suppose to be " And it wasn't even close to what Golden Kamui had ever offer.

I don't why it's so beloved. I also really loved the first 30 to 50 chapters but then that's it. it was a mediocre sick stuff to go through with it.
