Samurai 8: Hachimaru Den review

I really don't know how people are writing the series off after 7 chapters. That said, I must say, it's not really grabbing my attention and I do kinda have to force myself to finish each chapter. I just started reading it today, and I can see it has potential, but at the same time it feels over the top and a bit crazy.

I think subconsciously I want to give it a chance because it's by Kishi, but ehh, it's difficult at times.

The art is good, but at times it can be really confusing and disorientating. The character designs are decent and the pacing is solid. I just don't really have an emotional investment in any of the characters or care. I'll probably still keep up with it because it's Kishi.

One thing I must also say is I like how you can clearly see the Naruto influence, while also clearly seeing it as a unique piece of work. It walks that line brilliantly. Will be back after chapter 10 to update.
