Here’s a show which I feel sorry to drop. Golden Kamuy stood as one of my favorite anime from two seasons ago. I loved the aspects of it which dealt with the Ainu, the beautiful backgrounds, Hokkaido, and turn of the century Japan. The action was great, and the characters interesting and fun.
Yet, one unfortunate element intruded itself towards the end of season one: the author’s interest in serial killers. Our heroes’ trip to the fishing village in search of more clues introduced a seriously disturbed fisherman, Henmi Kazuo, who became sexually aroused at the prospect of murder and death. I found myself enduring rather than enjoying these couple of episodes. And so, it probably comes as no surprise that I dropped the anime after the second season begins with introducing yet another crazed serial killer: Yasaku Edogai the taxidermist.
