February, 1907. Saichi "The Immortal" Sugimoto is a veteran of the Russo-Japanese War, infamous for his ferocity and ability to survive on the battlefield. Sadly for him, he's discharged without honors and left penniless on the island of Hokkaido, where he hopes to prospect some gold to get his dead friend's wife an eye operation. Unsuccessful, Sugimoto is instead stuck listening to a drunkard's rumors one winter night.The legend says that, during the heyday of Hokkaido's gold rush, a group of the indigenous Ainu people was preparing to revolt. They had amassed a large quantity of gold to finance their war: 75kg in fact, easily worth 80 million modern yen. However, one Ainu man slaughtered his companions, then hid the gold. Caught by the police and thrown in the infamous Abashiri Prison, that same man chose twenty-four fellow inmates, on each of whom he tattooed part of a map that would lead to the treasure, and told them to escape.Sugimoto initially dismisses the story, but when the drunkard sobers up the next morning, he tries to kill him. Sugimoto is convinced and gives chase, only to stumble upon a young Ainu huntress, Asirpa, daughter of one of the men murdered for the gold. After fending off a bear attack together, Sugimoto and Asirpa become partners in search of the treasure. However, they are up against several groups of equally fearsome people. Among the Abashiri escapees, former vice-captain of the disavowed and massacred Shinsengumi, Hijikata Toshizo, has gathered followers to piece together the map. Moreover, the Imperial Japanese army's elite 7th Division has gone rogue and, under the leadership of First Lieutenant Tsurumi, is on the hunt for Hijikata and Sugimoto.Satoru Noda's award-winning manga Golden Kamuy was serialized in Weekly Young Jump from 2014 to 2022, with 314 chapters and 31 volumes. An anime adaptation began airing in Spring 2018; it can be viewed on Crunchyroll with the appropriate regional subtitles, with Funimation doing the English dub track.A live-action movie version was released in Japan on January 19, 2024.As the manga concluded before the anime, BEWARE OF SPOILERS BELOW. | |

Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_103e0141 | comment |
Dying Clue: Downplayed; a soldier in bad shape wants to write down Sugimoto's name, but only manages to write "Immortal" before fainting. This allows Tsurumi to recognize him, however. | |

Hotter and Sexier: The first few chapters didn't feature as much male fanservice, but after Nihei's introduction, the rate of homoerotic subtext went through the roof, and many of the young male characters are now heavily played for fanservice with Shirtless Scenes and whatnot. | |

Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_109bc3e | comment |
Eat The Dog: The Ainu eat squirrels, which Sugimoto thinks are cute. Played for Laughs in a chapter where Sugimoto is separated from Asirpa and Shiraishi by thick fog; he befriends a sparrow with a broken wing, and at the very end of the chapter tearfully has him breaking its neck and eating it on a skewer...seconds before the fog clears and Asirpa finds him. | |

Scenery Censor: Besides the Running Gag with Shiraishi's actual face being used as censor patch (as mentioned in Gag Censor above), several rather phallic objects (like long guns, or thick, huge, erect mushrooms) eventually find their place right in front of naked male crotches. | |

If I Wanted You Dead... | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_14d633ed | comment |
If I Wanted You Dead...: When Tsurumi reveals to Sofia that it was Wilk, not her, who fired the shot that inadvertently killed his wife and daughter, she asks if he's going to kill Asirpa as a form of revenge on her father. Tsurumi responds that if that was his goal, he'd had plenty of opportunities to do so already. However, killing her would jeopardize his plans to turn Japan into a military superpower, and he has no intention of throwing that away for the sake of his personal feelings. On the other hand, it's also implied afterwards that Tsurumi's claims were false, since he was aware that Koito and Tsukishima were eavesdropping on the conversation and may have been putting on an act to maintain their loyalty to him after they started getting doubts about his true intentions. Additionally, it's implied that Tsurumi's revenge against Wilk is dependant on finding the gold he was so desperate to protect for Asirpa, for both personal and pragmatic reasons. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything?: The Sea Otter Stew scene. Under the effects of the aphrodisiac soup, Sugimoto, Shiraishi, Kiroranke and Tanigaki start getting hot and bothered, notice each others bodies and attractiveness, culminating in a suggestion for them to have an impromptu "sumo competition", which is an orgy in all but name. They seem to collectively realize that they were just short of having sex and agree not to talk about it again. | |

Apple of Discord: In Chapter 268 we learn that the deaths of the seven Ainu revolutionaries were caused by infighting after First Lieutenant Tsurumi sowed dissent amongst their ranks. Upon learning that Wilk had become their unspoken leader, uniting the uncooperative group with his natural charisma, Tsurumi told one of the revolutionaries about Wilk's history as a guerrilla in Russia, suggesting he wanted to steal their gold to fund a coup against the Russian Empire. The Ainu, split over whether or not they could trust Wilk anymore, turned on each other. | |

They then have to battle buck naked, with Scenery Censor for the most part in place. When Tanigaki rescues Inkarmat from a group of con men trying to pull a psychic scam, Cikapasi distracts one of them by dropping his pants. | |

A Good Way to Die: Many Abashiri convicts end up dying in the way they wanted. Nihei Tetsuzo wants to be killed by a beast stronger and meaner than he is. A wolf tears his throat out. Henmi Kazuo wants a violent end where he desperately struggles for life. He gets mauled to death by an orca after Sugimoto stabs him with a bayonet. Anehata Shiton dies of a heart attack while achieving his dream of having sex with a bear. Ueji Keiji sees his own disappointed face reflected in a window as he falls to his death, reminding him of his father and making him laugh. | |

The Caper: Sugimoto's group and Hijikata's group ally to infiltrate Abashiri prison so that Asirpa can directly talk to Noppera-bo. Several chapters are dedicated to their preparations, such as an infiltrated ally feeding them intel, or the digging of an entrance tunnel. As soon as they enter the prison grounds, the plan pretty much falls apart. | |

Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_1f6a62cc | comment |
Winter Warfare: The series begins with a prologue set during the Russo-Japanese War depicting the final assault of the bloody Battle of Hill 203, which took place in early winter. The main plot itself is set on the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido (and later Sakhalin), well known for its bitterly cold winters. As such, the freezing weather and hungry wildlife are as much of a danger to the main characters as are the violent criminals and deserting soldiers they encounter. | |

It's more a Chekhov's Gun by absence, but in Chapter 174, when Kadokura is confronting Sekiya on the frozen lake and has stripped himself naked to prove he's unarmed, the art takes pains never to actually show Kadokura fully from the back, including when Sekiya points out that he's holding a concealed knife between his buttcheeks. It turns out that Kadokura is actually the 24th tattooed individual that Noppera-bo used in desperation when time was running out for him, as revealed during the subsequent fight in the Sapporo brewery. | |

Circling Vultures: A stray vulture tries to abduct Asirpa. Artistic License – Biology as vultures' claws, unlike eagles or raptors, can't carry weight nor grab prey.note Eagles are hunters and use their hand-like claws, with long talons and prehensile fingers, to catch and hold prey; vultures are highly specialized carrion-eaters and use their feet-like claws, with short talons and barely prehensile fingers, to hold themselves steady while they use their beaks to eat. | |

Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_269e82c1 | comment |
Death of a Child: Henmi Kazuo's little brother was eaten alive by a wild boar, making him grow into a psychopathic killer. In a flashback story, Koichi Hasegawa's infant daughter, Olga, is killed outright by the same stray bullet that killed her Russian mother; those deaths mark the start of his deep disenchantment with the Japanese government. For the "cute animal" version, right in Chapter 1, when the big brown bear kills and eats the bear cub. Contrast with the straight usages of said opposite trope mentioned above. | |

More Dakka: The 7th Division are naturally well-armed but Tsurumi gathers more and more guns for his upcoming revolt. It results in the outrageous use of overwhelming firepower against the 7th's enemies. More the weapons used are a Hotchkiss machine gun against one man, and a full artillery bombardment coming from warships against the walls of Abashiri Prison. Later, Tsurumi uses a Nambu Type 3 heavy machine gun on the prisoners at Abashiri when they try to overwhelm his troops. Predictably, Tsurumi wins. | |

Chapter 280 reveals the location of the Ainu gold: Fort Goryokaku; the site of the last battle of the Boshin War (to Hijikata Toshizou's amusement.) It's also the same place that Koito was taken during the False Flag Operation in 199-200, and his facial expression upon being told that shows he's not pleased with the irony of the situation. | |

Thou Shalt Not Kill | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_2f94135c | comment |
Thou Shalt Not Kill: Asirpa, and by extension most Ainu, really do not want to kill other human beings. Since the rest of the cast is made of damaged war veterans and violent criminals, that particular restraint stands a lot. Sugimoto looks up to Asirpa precisely because she isn't a killer, and among others seeks to preserve Asirpa's innocence and happiness. When he understands that Wilk has been secretly grooming Asirpa into becoming a soldier, he | |

Downplayed. Sugimoto doesn't speak Ainu, but continuous exposure to the Gratuitous Foreign Language makes him able to understand a few words. Later in the manga, Sugimoto hears his name, "ohaw" for "soup", and "osoma" for "poop". Putting two and two together, he correctly deduces that once again Asirpa is telling someone that he is eating poop, or rather miso. | |

Deceased Parents Are the Best: Asirpa has nothing but fond memories of her late father. It gets more complicated when Asirpa learns that Wilk supposedly killed his own people and stole the gold, and he dies for real before they get to reconcile. She eventually learns of Wilk's revolutionary past in Russia, and how she was raised to become a freedom fighter for the Ainu, but she loves and remembers him fondly anyway. | |

Gotta Catch Them All: There are 24 escaped Abashiri convicts at large throughout Hokkaido, all of whom have tattoos that when brought together, form a coded treasure map leading to a massive hoard of gold. Naturally, a major focus of the series is the characters' attempts to collect the tattoos, whether by making copies or by killing the convicts and skinning their bodies. However, most characters realize it's not strictly necessary to gather all 24 tattooed skins; if they have enough to crack the code, then they can just fill in the blanks themselves. In fact, thanks to one of the convicts covering himself with more tattoos to obscure his part of the map, collecting them all isn't even possible anymore. | |

"Last Supper" Steal: In Chapter 81 Sugimoto's group and Hijikata's group are eating a meal together, drawn as a Last Supper Homage. There is a lot to unpack here. Is Asirpa the Messianic Archetype or something closer to the actual Messiah (except for Ainu)? The Judas Iscariot-Peter-John triad throws up some thoroughly spoilerific and somewhat uncomfortable suggestions. Oh, and four of the participants are taxidermied men who've had the skin flayed off their torsos and upper arms. | |

The Legend of Chekhov: Asirpa tells Sugimoto the story of her father who would crawl directly into a bear's den because there's a saying that brown bears will never kill a human who enters. Sugimoto later uses that knowledge to dive into a bear's den when pursued by the 7th division. A recurring segment involves Asirpa recalling a legend of some sort of monstrous creature, followed by that creature (or something resembling it) immediately appearing to attack the party. | |

Mistaken for Badass: When Botaro the Pirate and his gang attempt to rob a postal riverboat, the postmaster pulls out a gun and starts firing wildly right as Vasily, hiding in a different boat, snipes some of Botaro's men. The postmaster assumes he's responsible and starts spouting a bunch of one-liners. | |

Homoerotic Subtext: From Nihei's introduction onward, characters begin to show more and more homosexual traits (Henmi has a Villainous Crush on Sugimoto, Ushiyama is bisexual when drunk, most of Tsurumi's subordinates adore him, etc). Finds its peak at the sea otter hot pot scene, when it effectively becomes text. | |

Dismantled MacGuffin | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_63d3ce1a | comment |
Dismantled MacGuffin: The treasure map is tattooed on the skin of 24 men who went their separate ways. It's downplayed as the point made is that solving the code doesn't actually require all the skins to be solved. Rather, the need for collecting all of them was more about the various groups trying to hedge their bets in deciphering the gold's location from the skins, not being aware of the minimum amount needed to solve it, as well as limiting their competitors' ability to solve the code before them. This gets brought up when Ueji Keiji attempts to foil the gold hunt by tattooing over his own clue, only for those who witness this to completely tune him out for the above reasons. Once the gold's location is revealed, it turns out it only needed at least half of them in order to be solved, the location it indicated was recognizable enough for both Hijikata and Tsurumi, who have been to that location before. | |

Hourglass Plot | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_66907f54 | comment |
Hourglass Plot: Tsukishima and Koito. Tsukishima is introduced as the 7th Division reluctant Only Sane Man, constantly mildly bothered by the eccentricity around him and a wary and conscious follower of Tsurumi who realizes he may not be doing good, but is willing to follow him; Koito meanwhile is his eccentric superior that is absolutely smitten and devoted to Tsurumi, to an almost romantic degree of infatuation, and considers him the noblest man worthy of following without ever questioning his ideas and motives. As the story progresses, Tsukishima's faith in Tsurumi grows more fervent and blind, where as Koito starts realizing the flawed morality of Tsurumi's plans and grows to worry about how far are the members willing to follow said plans. At the very end, a wounded Tsukishima is cradled by Koito, but attempts to get back up to fight by Tsurumi's side, where as Koito begs Tsurumi to leave and let him save Tsukishima. | |

The Reveal | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_6b2b3b59 | comment |
The Reveal: In Chapter 30, it's revealed that Noppera-bo had deliberately and vastly understated the amount of gold hidden away; instead of "only" 75kg of gold, it's actually 75,000kg, an amount equivalent to a third of Japan's national budget, explaining why both the 7th Division and Hijikata's group are so eager to find it. Chapter 280 reveals the location of the Ainu gold: Fort Goryokaku; the site of the last battle of the Boshin War (to Hijikata Toshizou's amusement.) It's also the same place that Koito was taken during the False Flag Operation in 199-200, and his facial expression upon being told that shows he's not pleased with the irony of the situation. Chapter 284 reveals that the location that Hijikata's skin marked within the fort was actually the hiding spot of a concealed document: a land deed between the Ainu and the then-newly forming Republic of Ezo to secure vast swathes of land all over Hokkaido for the Ainu, with international witnesses to it's signing, such that the current Meiji Government cannot declare it null and void due to being agreed with a previous government. This raises Asirpa's spirits as she realizes the "cursed" golden kamuy has been transformed into one that the Ainu truly need. Though everybody else is crushed by the revelation that the gold has already been used to buy that land, Hijikata reads on to discover that only half of the Ainu gold was used to buy the land, meaning the other half is still hiding somewhere. | |

Meaningful Echo: At the very start of the series, Asirpa explains how a bear that kills humans is destined for Hell, and Sugimoto, reminded of all the lives he took during the war, thinks to himself "I guess they'll be rolling out the red carpet for me!" Much later into the series, as Sugimoto is fighting Warrant Officer Kikuta, he screams that he's sending him straight to Hell, to which the latter smiles and says "Go ahead. They'll be rolling out the red carpet for me." As we quickly learn, the two of them knew each other long ago, and Sugimoto most likely picked up the phrase from Kikuta. | |

Breather Episode: It's not uncommon for a few chapters of brutal, gory action to be followed up with some fine slice-of-life cuteness between Sugimoto and Asirpa. | |

Reality Is Unrealistic | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_85557b38 | comment |
An example particularly noteworthy because of Reality Is Unrealistic reasons would be Sugimoto's aftermath for brain damage: instead of commonly depicted highly visible results (like losing mobility or speech), he's shown without any apparent effect. However, one of the many possible results of brain damage in the area he was shot is mild dyslexia, and an exaggerated emotional answer. And next chapter, he's actually shown consistently taking out the wrong photo, getting all teary-eyed at having found Asirpa's track, and being much quicker to anger, even for his usual standards. Do the math. | |

Denser and Wackier: At the beginning, the characters were played quite seriously. However, Nihei's introduction became the landmark signaling the beginning of a more eccentric cast, with characters, especially the Abashiri convicts introduced thereafter, becoming wackier and wackier in their mannerisms and mindsets, although the serious undertone of Ainu persecution and reflection about violence is kept intact. | |

Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_8b67aba7 | comment |
Cerebus Retcon: Asirpa is surprisingly adept at hunting and survival in the mountains for a little Ainu girl, especially in a culture where women are expected to Stay in the Kitchen. It is mostly presented in a lighthearted way to expose the most interesting parts of Ainu culture, and seemingly give Sugimoto a competent Kid Sidekick. When Sugimoto meets the real Noppera-bo/Wilk in Abashiri Prison, the disfigured prisoner confesses that he had been secretly grooming her into becoming a freedom fighter waging war against the Japanese government for the Ainu, using hunting and survival training as a pretext. The Reveal is all the more shocking since Asirpa is a Badass Pacifist and a follower of Thou Shalt Not Kill, yet Wilk planned for her to eventually become a martyr through violence. | |

Villainous Breakdown | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_957e5fc2 | comment |
Added to the volume version of Chapter 211 (but absent from the original magazine version) is a scene wherein Tsurumi, upon seeing how Asirpa's eyes so greatly resemble her father's, has a minor loss of composure, chuckling to himself as he flashes back to digging out the bullet that killed Fina and Olga out of their bodies, with an image of Wilk notably present as well. It's later revealed that he kept the bullet, alongside Olga and Fina's finger bones and shows it to Asirpa and Sophia as proof- based on the caliber of the bullet, and the firearms everybody was using during the shootout, Olga and Fina were likely killed by a stray shot from Wilk, for which he blames him and is implied to be willing to take his vengeance out on his daughter as proxy, now Wilk is dead. His loss of composure, with brain fluid gushing from his wound during the same scene— something he noted only happened when he was greatly agitated— also unnerves all his men, hinting that none of them are aware of what truly drives Tsurumi during the gold hunt, nor what his actual intentions are once it's finally located. | |

Badass and Child Duo: Two prominent examples, being Sugimoto and Asirpa and Tanigaki and Cikapasi. Due to their relative ages, Sugimoto and Asirpa are more of a brother and sister duo, while Tanigaki and Cikapasi are more like father and son. Sugimoto and Asirpa are about equally as skilled at different things, but Cikapasi relies more on Tanigaki to protect him and teach him how to be a man. | |

Made of Iron: Sugimoto has survived: tuberculosis, one of the bloodiest battles of the Russo-Japanese war, encounters with multiple angry bears, falling into rivers and lakes in freezing weather, a gas explosion underground, several fights with elite military personnel, and multiple gunshots and stab wounds, including in the abdomen, chest, neck and head. Specific mention being made of him recovering of wounds almost overnight. Ushiyama also qualifies for this distinction, although he doesn't cheat death like Sugimoto and shrugs off any damage. He's resisted stabbing attempts, even breaking the blade with his muscles, and tanks falling debris and explosion like no one else. | |

Kumagishi Chouan's Final Speech in Chapter 90 finally became relevant in Chapter 274 for identifying the fake skins. That is, the fakes were made to be of "higher quality" than the real ones, but the stuff Edogai used to tan his fakes makes it so that they become stained when they touch iron or steel. This, combined with the key, makes identifying the fakes much easier. | |

Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_a56e3cba | comment |
Language Barrier: Downplayed. Sugimoto doesn't speak Ainu, but continuous exposure to the Gratuitous Foreign Language makes him able to understand a few words. Later in the manga, Sugimoto hears his name, "ohaw" for "soup", and "osoma" for "poop". Putting two and two together, he correctly deduces that once again Asirpa is telling someone that he is eating poop, or rather miso. This happens more often as the gang goes into the Russian-populated Karafuto, especially after Vasily joins. | |

After Asirpa accidentally shoots Ogata in the eye with a poisoned arrow, Sugimoto is willing to go to whatever lengths it takes to make sure he survives. He may want him dead, but keeping his blood off of Asirpa's hands takes priority. A few times during their travels, they meet certain characters, and once they say their goodbyes, the narration states that the characters went on to have a life full of adventures, but that's a story for another day. | |

Tsukishima's put on the receiving end of a rare case of it being an Invoked Trope, as part of Tsurumi's plan to save him from death row. Tsurumi (headed to Russia to act as an intelligence officer) stated that his trusted subordinate and talented interpreter Tsukishima's fluency in Russian made him vital for negotiations, so he was taking Tsukishima off death row to go with him. Tsukishima knew not a word of Russian, and was told to learn it right away. | |

Chapter 284 reveals that the location that Hijikata's skin marked within the fort was actually the hiding spot of a concealed document: a land deed between the Ainu and the then-newly forming Republic of Ezo to secure vast swathes of land all over Hokkaido for the Ainu, with international witnesses to it's signing, such that the current Meiji Government cannot declare it null and void due to being agreed with a previous government. This raises Asirpa's spirits as she realizes the "cursed" golden kamuy has been transformed into one that the Ainu truly need. Though everybody else is crushed by the revelation that the gold has already been used to buy that land, Hijikata reads on to discover that only half of the Ainu gold was used to buy the land, meaning the other half is still hiding somewhere. | |

What You Are in the Dark | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_afc6df04 | comment |
What You Are in the Dark: Invoked. Koito and Tsukishima, both of whom are struggling with their secret doubts that Lieutenant Tsurumi's true goals in searching for the Ainu gold are not as benevolent for the war-ravaged comrades in arms of the Japanese army as he's claimed, and so they eavesdrop in on his private conversation with Asirpa and Sophia to get the truth of his intentions. They're overjoyed when Tsurumi apparently confirms that, despite having a personal issue with Wilk for the deaths of his wife and child and being indirectly responsible for the Ainu massacre that kicked off the story, he still holds the overall goals of his dream above his personal ones, claiming that all he wants is a personal memorial to Find and Olga on the path to their dream together. However, it's subverted afterward when Koito realizes that, thanks to him and Tsukishima getting soaked in beer during their sight with Sugimoto in the brewery, they were reeking of alcohol, but had become so used to the smell that they didn't notice, meaning it was entirely possible for Tsurumi to tell they were in the room he checked despite not actually seeing them, and he could have been putting on an act for both his captives and them at the same time. Regardless, since the 'confession' cemented Tsukishima's Undying Loyalty to Tsurumi, Koito decides to bury his suspicions for his sake for the moment. | |

"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_b77808f2 | comment |
"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: The final chapter reveals the fates of the surviving characters: Sugimoto gives his share of the gold to Umeko and her family, fulfilling his promise to Toraji and ensuring that they will be financially secured for life. Afterwards, he returns to Hokkaido with Asirpa and they live together in her village. Asirpa uses the Ainu land deed as leverage to negotiate with the Japanese government throughout her life. While unable to secure all the land in the deed, much of the remaining land given to the Ainu is preserved as national and quasi-national parks in Hokkaido. Her efforts ensured the continued survival of Ainu culture to this present day. The epilogue shows her and Sugimoto living together at her home. Tanigaki marries Inkarmat and they return to his homeplace of Ani, Akita, where they'd go on to have fifteen children together, all but the eldest one being sons. Vasily is revealed to have survived his duel with Ogata and returned to Russia, where he becomes a famed artist. One of his paintings, a portrait of a dying wildcat clearly meant to symbolize Ogata, is not sold until years after his death. It's sold for 300 million. Kadokura, alongside Kirawus and Mansur, moves to America and they enter the motion picture business, producing a movie based on the gold hunt that bombs at the box office, but later is regarded as a cult classic. Koito and Tsukishima work to protect the surviving soldiers of the 7th Division that supported Tsurumi's rebellion from Central's revenge. The narration reveals that Koito would eventually be promoted to Lieutenant General and would become the last commander of the 7th Division, with Tsukishima serving as his right hand man. After parting ways with Sugimoto and Asirpa in Tokyo, Shiraishi would dig up the remainder of the Ainu gold that was buried in Gory�kaku, and would go on to become the king of an island off the coast of Burma. The last scene of the manga has Sugimoto and Asirpa receiving a blank letter from him with a royal coin minted with Shiraishi’s visage, much to their shock. | |

Against My Religion: The Ainu's particular view of the world makes them think that an animal who has killed a human is cursed, and thus its meat shouldn't be eaten. Asirpa refuses the meat of an orca, believing it's killed a man, but Sugimoto reassures her that he did the killing instead, so the orca didn't turn evil. | |

Chapter 286 subverts this, however, as it's revealed that Hijikata's tattoo portion had a marking on it indicating an area within the fort where the Ainu land deed was buried, and when Kadokura opens the door to the room where Hijikata's studying the completed skin map, the wind blows his tattoo copy on top of it, which seems to give Hijikata a "Eureka!" Moment about the gold's location. But as it turns out, this was only because Hijikata had been in the fort before and realised the marking was referring to a disused well— which was precisely what Wilk was aiming for when he gave Kadokura the partial tattoo. | |

Innocence Lost: Asirpa was always pretty mature but as the hunt for the Ainu gold continues, she grows more disillusioned by how the Japanese and the Russians oppress the local tribes. By Chapter 215, Asirpa is implied to seriously consider killing people to attain her goals as she thinks to herself that she's "ready to plunge into hell alongside Sugimoto". | |

The one reason they bother with him is that everyone knows that to get the treasure, infiltrating Abashiri prison to directly interrogate Noppera-bo is better than fighting openly against the 7th Division, and thus Shiraishi's specialized set of skills will be essential. | |

Red Herring: After all of the tattooed convicts have been found, Head Jailer Kadokura reveals that he also has the outline of a tattoo from Noppera-bo on his back, which he's kept a secret from everyone else. It sounds like it'll be the final, key piece of the puzzle, but when both Sugimoto and Tsurumi's groups attempt to crack the code, they're able to do so without it, and when Kadokura lines up a finished copy of his tattoo with the rest, it tells them absolutely nothing of value. Chapter 286 subverts this, however, as it's revealed that Hijikata's tattoo portion had a marking on it indicating an area within the fort where the Ainu land deed was buried, and when Kadokura opens the door to the room where Hijikata's studying the completed skin map, the wind blows his tattoo copy on top of it, which seems to give Hijikata a "Eureka!"

Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_dce448d | comment |
Reduced to Ratburgers: Right before the battle of Hill 203, we see Sugimoto eating a stray ant. A good indication of the living conditions of the soldiers at the time, and justification of why every dish he eats after the war is Food Porn for him (save the raw brains). When the group is stranded in the high mountains, the only animals available to hunt are mountain pika. This isn't considered gross by the standards of the manga, but a few pika aren't enough to feed a then-group of four and multiple characters comment about how disappointing it is to eat mouse crackers (the trap used to catch them squashes them). | |

Gambit Pileup: Having the 7th Division's, Hijikata's, and Sugimoto's plans overlapping is a lot to keep track of, even without the multiple double agents and characters with Chronic Backstabbing Disorder. Tsurumi wants to establish a military nation in Hokkaido, with the eventual goal of taking over Japan and Manchuria. Hijikata wants to reestablish the Republic of Ezo, a city-state for ethnic minorities as a buffer zone between Japan and Russia. Sugimoto just wants to help Asirpa, get the gold, and pay for Ume's eye surgery, but he's fiercely protective of Asirpa and will cooperate with or take down either side to make sure she's safe. | |

Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique: Asirpa threatens Shiraishi with her poisoned arrows so that he helps her free Sugimoto. Tsurumi cuts off Nikaido's remaining ear and threatens to play a game of fukuwarai*a classic Japanese children's game that's like a combination of pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey and Mr. Potato Head with his face. | |

Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_e4f5affb | comment |
The Chew Toy: Nikaido lost his twin brother at the hands of Sugimoto, had one ear torn off by a bear and the other one sliced off by Tsurumi, lost a leg to Hijikata, and had his hand blown away with his own prosthetic leg (again by Sugimoto). Both the trauma and the opiate addiction caused by the injuries are consistently Played for Laughs. | |

Concealment Equals Cover | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_ea92aeb0 | comment |
Concealment Equals Cover: Despite the realistic way in which guns are treated, a rifle isn't able to pierce through any form of cover. Somewhat justified in that 6.5 mm Arisaka round is quite weak for a rifle round,note In fact, underpowered rounds were kind of traditional for most Japanese firearms, including pistols and machine guns. and is better compared to the modern intermediate rounds, and these do have problems with penetration unless using specialized bullets. In fact, this round was used in a prototype of all modern assault rifles, Fedorov Avtomat, specifically because of its lightweight and reduced power. | |

Spotting the Thread: During their confrontation on the Karafuto ice floes, Ogata lies to Asirpa that he witnessed Sugimoto dying and heard his last words. Asirpa figures out it's a lie because Ogata quotes Sugimoto as wanting to go home and eat anglerfish hot pot, when in reality Sugimoto mentioned to Asirpa he wanted to eat dried persimmons if he ever made it back home – anglerfish hot pot is Ogata's favorite food. | |

Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_f1d6144a | comment |
War Is Hell: War has broken a lot of characters in the manga, beginning with Sugimoto. It doesn't help that most of the veterans actually fought in the Siege of Port Arthur, one of the most outrageously bloody and poorly executed battles in Japanese history (a "victory" that cost tens of thousands of casualties), and got little to nothing in return. | |

A Plot in Deed: While most of the story was a treasure hunt to find Noppera-bo's hidden stash of gold, the latter half of the story shows that the true prize awaiting the end of their journey is the papers to a plot of land he wanted to secure for the Ainu. The final arc consists of all remaining active players going to the location of the deed and fighting each other over it. | |

Running Gag | |
Golden Kamuy (Manga) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Asirpa thinking that miso is "osoma." Shiraishi getting bitten on the head by various animals, or his face being used as censor patch. Whichever animal Asirpa is hunting that chapter getting a cover page where it's friends with her, often immediately before getting killed by her. Ogata refusing to say "citatap". Tanigaki repeatedly saying "boner". Lewd photos of Tanigaki and/or his shirt popping open. Showing the wrong photo to people (usually one of the aforementioned ones of Tanigaki). Koito screaming like a monkey, in or out of combat. Also, villains talking about what a nice guy Sugimoto is when he's kind to them. | |

Brick Joke: In Chapter 16, Sugimoto discovered the kisarri, a three-branched stick used to emulate a monster and with which you'd have to roar in order to frighten children as a game. In that chapter, Sugimoto performs abysmally with it but in Chapter 88, he discovers another kisarri and roars out of anger, causing Asirpa who hears him from a distance to think that the monster is really here. | |

Shown Their Work: Each volume lists an impressive bibliography of research, not only into the time period but also Ainu culture (assisted by a university professor). An example particularly noteworthy because of Reality Is Unrealistic reasons would be Sugimoto's aftermath for brain damage: instead of commonly depicted highly visible results (like losing mobility or speech), he's shown without any apparent effect. However, one of the many possible results of brain damage in the area he was shot is mild dyslexia, and an exaggerated emotional answer. And next chapter, he's actually shown consistently taking out the wrong photo, getting all teary-eyed at having found Asirpa's track, and being much quicker to anger, even for his usual standards. Do the math. | |
