* Volume

**Message** (伝言, *Dengon*) is the 80th chapter of the *Golden Kamuy* manga.

## Synopsis

In the Yubari mine, Sugimoto attempts to make his way out of the mines, crawling with Shiraishi unconscious on his back. With tears in his eyes and scarf over his mouth, he wonders if he is going in the right way to the exit. Elsewhere, Ogata wonders the same thing as he crawls out of the debris. He then spots Edogai who had succumbed to his wounds under the pile of rubble. Just then, a miner shouts out to him that he is going the wrong way. In another location, Tsukishima is crouched on the ground coughing in pain.

Sugimoto is able to find an exit that had been boarded up and attempts to tear it down with his rifle. He is able to make a small opening and puts Shiraishi's face to it so that he can breathe some clean air. However, Ushiyama comes barging in, breaking the wooden boards, and grabbing the pair to carry to safety outside where Kiroranke and Asirpa are. Ushiyama and Asirpa instantly recognizes each other as he puts Sugimoto and Shiraishi down. As he gulps down some clean water, Sugimoto asks Ushiyama why he is here. Ushiyama says that he came to Yubari with another person and that he had just seen Sugimoto and Shiraishi riding in a mine cart. Ogata then pops out and says that they should bring Sugimoto's group along to explain the situation.

Back at the Edogai store, Ogata shows off Edogai's works to the others and confirms that Edogai himself has died. He warns about Tsukishima and assumes that if he's still alive, that there will be fake skins out there. Ogata asks Ushiyama if he had called Hijikata, to which Ushiyama confirmed that he should be here soon. Just then, Hijikata picks up a cat and enters the room carrying a fake skin and says that they need to find a way how to discern the fake skins from the real ones.

In Otaru, Tsukishima covered with ashes and carrying the bag of skins makes his report to Tsurumi. Tsurumi was able to acquire the fake skins and admires it, saying that artists have a great desire to leave behind works of art for the ages and that there is nothing greater than to leave behind works that will have an enormous impact on the world. Tsukishima was able to relay the last message to him, which is just one word "iron". Tsurumi reveals that he had gotten a report about the situation in Yubari, which must mean that Edogai had passed away. He then thanks Tsukishima for his hard work and tells him to take a long rest. As Tsurumi ponders on Edogai's words, he stares out the window and gets a feel for the rain with his glove. He then touches a pot to reveal that the water had brought out the tannins and reacted to the iron, revealing black markings on the skins. Tsurumi then made a resolve to not let Edogai's sacrifice go to waste.

**Overview**
Gallery

* Manga
* Anime

**Heita Matsuda** (松田 平太, *Matsuda Heita*) is one of the former Abashiri Convicts and an expert in gold panning.

## Personality

Heita appears to be suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder, formed from his family being eaten by a bear and his immense fear of Wen Kamuys. After the horrific incident both the bear and his family members haunt him constantly in the form of hallucinations. His personality switches out with one of his dead family members in a matter of minutes, acting out multiple scenarios as someone else. When he switches with the Wen Kamuy he hallucinates that he's being eaten and becomes 'possessed'. Once possessed he can't stop his murderous rampage until he's killed someone and once he did kill, he hallucinates that his body explodes and chunks of his flesh fly off into the mountain and then he finally switches back into his main personality so the cycle of self punishment continued.

The main personality, Heita, is usually seen to be kind and helpful; He explains to Sugimoto and Shiraishi the multiple tools used in gold panning and the certain places in a stream where it would be easier to find gold. Heita also has a great fear of bears due to the Ainu stories about Wen Kamuys he heard about when he was 12 years old. Another prominent personality is his brother's wife, Noriko, she's usually depicted as a seductive woman and is seen revealing herself to Vasily so she could be drawn.

## Trivia

* Heita likes crayfish and disliked crow meat.
* He is likely based on Norse berserkers, warriors who wore bear pelts and used hallucinogenic drugs to enter a trance-like state, as well as the Sankebetsu brown bear attacks, in which a single brown bear killed 9 people in Hokkaido.

Jasper

Jasper is the last remaining Pure Saber slime in the world. He gets scared easily and screams a lot because of what happened to him in his backstory.

## Appearance

He looks like a pure saber slime, except that the tip of his left tusk got broken off.

## Personallity

Jasper gets scared of things really easily, most likely because he thinks things really bad could happen if what happened to the rest of the pure saber slimes could. Because of this, he screams a lot even when things not that bad (such as a rock slime accidentally rolling towards him) happen.

## Relations

Jasper is too frightened to try to make good relationships usually. However, in many roleplays, FlowerButterfly becomes friends with him.

## Abilities

### Bite

Jasper can bite to fight. The tusks are quite powerful, especially the right one that didn't have its tip get broken off.

### Parkour

Jasper is really good at parkour. He can use this skill to dodge, attack, or flee easily!

### Riding

Jasper can ride and jump off of things easily, including enemies! Sometimes, he will ride on an enemy and bite it to death.

### Loud Screaming

Jasper screams so much that he accidentally got better at it. Now people can hear it from a kilometer away!

### Keen Senses

Jasper developed keen senses to help him know if danger is nearby. I guess fear is sometimes useful.

## Moths to the Flame

**Moths to the Flame**, or **The Bugs of Summer** (夏の虫, *Natsu no mushi*) is the 105th chapter of the *Golden Kamuy* manga.

## Synopsis

Having escaped from the big snake, Sugimoto's Group stops to collect some amanyuu, a plant that snakes apparently hates. Asirpa spoke about several kinds of snakes and that the mamushi are the only venomous snakes in this land and that according to a folk tale, the mamushi is the final form taken by the souls of dead bandits. She then told about the various tales of the snakes involved with certain gods such as Apecuhi Kamuy and Kanna Kamuy and that the snake only shows himself to humans when he intends to harm them, so it is wise for them to be careful.

In Otaru, Sakamoto, O-gin, Kantarou and Kamezou prepares to raid the gambling hall but Sakamoto and O-gin starts making out and making loud noises which attracts the attention of the guards. Once the guards had approached them, the duo instantly and silently kills them which unnerves the bodyguards. Despite that, they still continue on with the plan so as to get not only the skin in the gambling hall but Sakamoto's skin as well. Upon barging into the gambling hall, Sakamoto blows a man's head off with his shotgun and orders the bodyguards to hurry and grab the money. O-gin grabs the owner of the hall and threatens him to take her back and give her what they want. Upstairs, she finds the skin hiding in a drawer and yells down to Sakamoto that she found it but is stopped by Kantarou at gunpoint, asking if they had any more.

Unbeknownst to the group, it was a trap set by the 7th Division as Nikaidou readies the counter-attack against them. Tsurumi, Tsukishima, and Koito enters the room and tells them that they have the building surrounded much to Kamezou's fears. Back upstairs, Kantarou wonders what's going up and O-gin tells him that if he does not want to die, he'd better help them. Tsurumi then asks Sakamoto if he has any other tattooed skins in his possession and that if he hid them, it would be rather troublesome for the 7th Division since they were planning to kill both him and O-gin. He says that while Sakamoto must be killed, that he'd be willing to spare O-gin if he hands over any hidden skins to them.

However, Sakamoto taunts them about what kind of woman O-gin is and what she would do if left alive. He then grabs Kamezou just as Tsurumi orders his men to fire, hitting Kamezou's body. Uninjured, Sakamoto jumps around the building, avoiding the hail of bullets as the soldiers hurriedly runs by Kamezou's corpse trying to catch up with him. As Koito runs up the stairs, he notices that the bandit group has spilled some cooking oils on the stairs, thus making it difficult for them to continue their pursuit. Sliding down the stairs, he screams for Tsukishima's help as Tsukishima just blankly stares up at him.

## Synopsis

Hijikata is horrified that Toni took a shot for him but Toni continues to fight, firing back at Nikaidou and damaging his helmet. Nikaidou launches another grenade at Hijikata’s Group but they manage to scramble into a hole to avoid the blast. Toni complains about how loud it is as Hijikata’s Group and the 7th Division exchange gunfires with each other before Nikaidou retreats to find Sugimoto. Hijikata tells Toni that he never thought he would take a bullet for him and Toni asks him if it was such a surprise, saying that he would have already died two or three times if it wasn’t for him.

Toni declares that his life is nothing more than an “extra” life that he has been able to live and that he will use it to help Hijikata live even longer. He tells Hijikata to go as he will stay and guard the bridge and Hijikata silently grasps Toni’s shoulder before leaving. Toni then prepares to single-handedly take on the 7th Division soldiers that comes his way so that Hijikata can make his escape. At the east entrance, Tsurumi, Tsukishima, and Koito engages the Russian revolutionaries in combat. As one of the revolutionaries throws a grenade at them, Tsukishima leaps out of the hole and kicks it back at the revolutionary, killing him and earning Tsukishima Tsurumi’s praise.

Koito leads the charge against the revolutionaries and unbeknownst to them, Kantarou hides among the littered corpses of revolutionaries as he spots Tsurumi, with fear on his face. The 7th Division seizes the east entrance and prepares to charge into Fort Goryokaku with fifty men at the ready. Tsurumi orders his soldiers to go and take the north entrance and post men at every entrance so as not to let anyone escape. He then orders Tsukishima and Koito to come with him to search every buildings for the land deed and as Tsurumi enters one of the building, a sense of dread washes over Koito.

Toni continues to fight back against the 7th Division but the sound of grenades exploding rings his eardrum as he complains about how much they hurt. Meanwhile, Hijikata and Sugimoto makes their way through the fort grounds, fighting off every 7th Division soldiers they come across. Toni notices that the loud sound has stopped and that it has gotten quiet as he looks around him. In reality, Toni’s life has finally expired as the soldiers rushes past his lifeless body.

**Continuing Battle** (再延長戦, *Sai enchō-sen*) is the 300th chapter of the *Golden Kamuy* manga.

## Synopsis

As Tsurumi and Tsukishima chases after Sugimoto's Group, the latter notes that he had found a number of Ainu arrows that had been discarded, leading the two men to come to the conclusion that the land deed is in Asirpa's quiver. Meanwhile, Koito and several 7th Division soldiers follows Tsurumi and Tsukishima from behind as Koito shows discomfort on his face.

Through his scope, Ogata is able to find Vasily due to the sun shining down onto his binoculars and begins to bask that destiny and the world has chosen to be on his side. Ogata carefully readies his sniper rifle and steadily aims at Vasily's spot before realizing that something is off. He notes that Vasily is moving his binoculars around to make sure that everyone can see the sun's reflection and that he had surely taken into account the reflection of the sun on his binoculars.

Ogata fires at the tree across from him, musing that the light was bait and that he had aimed an arm's length below the light. Just then, Vasily fires back, hitting Ogata in his left calf. However, Ogata begins to celebrate that he had defeated Vasily since if he was still alright, there was no way that Vasily would have shot at just his leg. On the other side of the field, a sniper rifle falls down from the trees to the ground, with blood dripping onto the gun from above.

Tanigaki hears the sniper battle and adjusts Asirpa's position in order to protect her from the gunfight. Ogata spots that Asirpa was able to get away and fires at a 7th Division soldier, catching Koito's attention, before making his move. Sugimoto's Group exclaims that the 7th Division are still chasing after them and will eventually catch up to them since their horses can't run forever. Hijikata suggests that they stand their ground and fight them but Asirpa shouts that they must keep going as the 7th Division's horses can't run forever either.

Ushiyama spots a steam train and they decide to take the train up to the harbour where they will be able to find a ship that will take them aboard. As they board the train, Sugimoto suddenly remembers that the only Hakodate-bound train runs at night and they open up a car to find that it is loaded with armed 7th Division soldiers staring back at them.

## Synopsis

Asirpa's Group hunts some seals and they are able to kill one while Kiroranke explains that seal oil is to the Nivkh people as soy sauce is to the Japanese. Asirpa notices a reindeer nearby and wonders if it came from across the sea with Ogata saying that perhaps it was being chased by something.

They then go over their plan to blow up holes on four sides of Akou Prison and to have Asirpa meet Sofia as soon as possible. Once nighttime had fallen, Asirpa's Group prepares the breakout by drilling holes in the wall and stuffing them with explosives from the lighthouse and covering them up with snow to hide them.

Only Kiroranke's explosive manages to go off and Kiroranke wonders if they had not been properly preserved. Meanwhile, Sugimoto's Group notices smoke coming up from Akou Prison in the distance. In the prison itself, the guards attempts to keep all the prisoners in their eyesight, but Sofia is able to knock one out and have her handcuffs broken before taking out another guard.

Sofia and her men begins to make their escape, while eliminating any guards they came across. They quickly notice that there aren't any holes for them to go through before finding one.

Maebashi Prison

The **Maebashi Prison** (前橋監獄, *Maebashi Kangoku*) is one of the many prisons in Japan. It is located in the Gunma prefecture.

## Overview

Maebashi Prison was built in the same style as the prisons of the Edo era, which meant that the walls were all made from wooden bars so that the guards could easily see into the cells. They were completely open to the elements as well. There was a toilet in the cell which was a bucket sitting beneath an opening in the floor. The guards collected the bucket by opening a little door beneath the cell and pulling it out.

Yoshitake Shiraishi came to Maebashi Prison after he had heard from a yakuza member that Sister Miyazawa may be here. He was immediately recognized by the guard and thrown into the prison to find out that the sister had never been to this prison. Because of his reputation, he was the only prisoner with manacles and a ball and a chain. He was able to break out by starving himself for several weeks so that he was thin enough to open the toilet lock with his foot and escape through the toilet hole under the cells.

## Underwater Breath-Holding Contest

**Underwater Breath-Holding Contest**, or **Underwater Breath-Holding Competition** (水中息止め合戦, *Suichū Ikidome Gassen*) is the 237th chapter of the *Golden Kamuy* manga.

## Synopsis

Shiraishi suspects that Boutarou may have already figured out where the Ainu originally hid the gold but Sugimoto says that that alone would not be enough to actually find the gold and that even Boutarou admitted to it. Shiraishi then asks Sugimoto about the rumour that the tattooed skins are useless but Sugimoto shrugs it off, saying that they shouldn't let themselves get caught up in rumours and continue to focus on gathering the tattooed skins. Shiraishi then suggests that they pretend to work with Boutarou in order to gain information from him, unaware that Boutarou has realized that they were looking for him.

Boutarou tells Sugimoto's Group that they are about to reach Ebetsu, asking them how much gold dust they think there are and reveals that the elderly Ainu man had told him that there may be a lot more gold dust than they had originally thought, which excites Sugimoto and Shiraishi. As Asirpa notices that Sugimoto's knapsack has been opened, Boutarou says that it is a shame that they won't be able to pursue their dreams together while his underling prepares to shoot Sugimoto. However, he is thwarted by Asirpa who exclaims that Boutarou has seen the contents of Sugimoto's knapsack, leading to a fight between the four men.

The captain of the steamboat takes opportunity of the fight in order to run the boat under a tree, knocking Sugimoto, Boutarou, and his underling into the water. Boutarou's underling gets caught in the water wheel and is instantly killed by the collision. Sugimoto and Boutarou continues to fight underwater but Boutarou has the advantage. Meanwhile, Shiraishi jumps into the water to resusicate and save Sugimoto, but he denies Shiraishi's help. Just then, a sea of sturgeons swims by and Sugimoto stabs his knife into one of them to get away from Boutarou.

Boutarou manages to grab Sugimoto's leg and as the sturgeons swims under the steamboat, Boutarou's long hair gets caught in the water wheel. As Boutarou attempts to free himself from the water wheel with all his might, Sugimoto pops out of the water, much to Asirpa's excitement. Boutarou struggles with breaking free from the water wheel when Sugimoto suddenly cuts off his lock of hair to release him, much to Boutarou's surprise. Meanwhile, the steamboat has arrived in Ebetsu while Shiraishi resurfaces from the water.

* Volume

**Attack of the Mysterious Winged Terror!**, or **Attack of the Mysterious Giant Bird** (怪奇！謎の巨大鳥, *Kaiki! Nazo no kyodai tori*) is the 32nd chapter of the *Golden Kamuy* manga.

## Synopsis

Asirpa, Saichi Sugimoto and Shiraishi Yoshitake embark on an adventure to catch a sea eagle. They reach a stream and decide to wait in an *an* (little hut) and set up and ambush. After setting up the bait for the eagle, Asirpa explains the traditional Ainu method of hunting an eagle by using a hook — *kapacirap*.

Shiraishi notices the eagle in the sky and rushes Sugimoto to shoot it, but Asirpa tells him to stop. She says that the Ainu don't use bows when hunting eagles, instead they use the hook to grab the eagle's leg when they land on the log; it's called hook hunting. She then says that she's started to run low on arrows, so she was hoping to catch an eagle. Huci would say, that in the old days one could catch over 100 eagles in one winter with hook hunting, but once people started using guns, the eagles vanished.

Asirpa then tells Sugimoto and Shiraishi of a legendary giant bird *Huri*. The legends of *Huri* exist all over Hokkaido. A single one of its wings is said to be 7 ri (27 km) long. When *Huri* appears in the sky, the sun is blocked out and women and children are snatched away. Some people say the Huri builds its nest in a cave in Sakkotan.

Shiraishi comments that the legend sounds like a bedtime story, then notices that Asirpa has fallen asleep. He realizes that she only took him with her to use as a personal heat pack.

Early in the morning, while Asirpa and Shiraishi are still asleep, Sugimoto notices an eagle outside their hut. He grabs his gun but then decides to use the hook instead. Sugimoto manages to trap the bird and yells for Asirpa and Shiraishi to wake up and help him. Asirpa quickly snaps the bird's neck and smiles as she seizes her prey. Suddenly, a giant bird appears and picks up Asirpa in the air. Shiraishi and Sugimoto scream in horror and hit the bird, releasing Asirpa from the animal's grip. Asirpa watches the bird fly away, amazed by the legend of the Huri being true. The return to the *kotan* and Asirpa prepares boiled eagle feet and treats Sugimoto and Shiraishi to this unusual meal.

## Character Appearances

* Sugimoto Saichi
* Shiraishi Yoshitake
* Huci *(Mentioned)*

## Trivia

* Sea eagle feathers have been prized as the highest class of arrow feather since the time of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. They were a valuable trading commodity between the Ainu and the Japanese.
* The hook hunting can be used for cranes or hawks, too. The hooks differ in sizes depending on the size of bird.
* The giant bird that tried to snatch Asirpa away could be a vulture. During the waning years of the Meiji Era, a giant bird attacked a carriage in a field in the Kushiro region. The local farmers ended up beating it to death with sticks. It was thought to be a vagrant vulture that flew over from the Asian mainland. To this day, the stuffed vulture is supposedly kept in the science room of a high school in Kushiro.

**Overview**
Gallery

**Katsutarou Inaba** (稲葉 勝太郎, *Inaba Katsutarō*) is a Japanese producer for the Lumière company. He first appears alongside Girel to film the Ainu people in Toyohara.

## Appearance

Inaba is a middle-aged man with short black hair swept to the side, wide arched eyebrows, big round eyes, and visible wrinkles on his face.

Inaba wears a shirt, trousers with suspenders, and a patterned scarf. While outside, he wears a coat and mittens. Inaba also carries a backpack on his back, presumably with filming equipment.

## Personality

Inaba is a professional filmmaker who cares greatly about his work. As a producer he prefers to be in charge of the filming process and is mostly interested in revenue. However, he still has a sentimental side, as he showed Asirpa the film reels of her family they recorded years ago.

## Background

Inaba was in contact with the Lumière company and received promotional rights to show moving pictures in Japan. He and Girel would demonstrate their customers films for money.

10 years prior current events, Inaba and Girel visited Asirpa's *kotan* in Otaru where they filmed Wilk, Riratte, Huci, Kiroranke, and baby Asirpa.

## Plot

### Return to Hokkaido Arc

Inaba and Girel first meet Asirpa and Sugimoto in the forest in Toyohara. The filmmakers ask Asirpa to show them again how she just lit the fire so they can record it on camera. However, Inaba is attacked by a wolverine, but Sugimoto and Asirpa save him while Girel catches it on camera. When asked by Sugimoto what were the two filming, Inaba explains that they had a chance to film Karafuto Ainu hunting but got separated from them.

Asirpa asks Inaba to film Ainu folk tales in motion, which Inaba initially refuses. But, after being threatened by Sugimoto, he complies and helps Asirpa with the filming by writing the scripts.

When the movie is ready, Inaba invites everyone to the theatre they rented with Koito's money. After the film screening is over, Inaba tells everyone that Girel wants Asirpa to see a film they shot 10 years ago in Otaru. The film shows Asirpa's kotan and her family, Wilk, Riratte, Huci, and Asirpa herself. Inaba comments that Wilk's blue eyes left a strong impression on him, then says that Girel thinks Riratte looks just like Asirpa. Inaba tells Asirpa about his conversations with Wilk in which he said that he was going to join the Japanese family registry to get married. He joked that Wilk shouldn't do that as he would be drafted if a war happens. Inaba wonders if Wilk ever took part in the war, but the screen changes to an image of Wilk and Kiroranke together. Suddenly, the film reel catches fire. Inaba tells everyone to evacuate and orders Girel to not let the fire spread to other pictures.

## Trivia

* Inaba is based on a real life businessman and politician Inabata Katsutaro.

Chapter 220

## Pelt

**Pelt** (毛皮, *Kegawa*) is the 220th chapter of the *Golden Kamuy* manga.

## Synopsis

Sugimoto’s Group searches for the brown bear, but Sugimoto is perplexed that they are unable to find it while Asirpa tells him and Shiraishi to stop walking around so as not to erase the bear tracks. Sugimoto believes that since they did not send the white bear, the gods of the mountains are angry at them but Asirpa criticizes him for placing the blame on the kamuy instead of thinking for himself. Asirpa states that it is impossible for a bear to not have left any tracks nearby and Sugimoto tells Shiraishi to find Heita with Vasily while he and Asirpa hunts down the bear. Heita finds the corpse of his father and Saburou buried by the bear and begins to run away, but hears someone chanting a nembutsu recital.

Nearby, a brown bear has attacked and killed Taka while Noriko stays hidden, holding her hands over her mouth to stay quiet. Just then, Heita finds Noriko and she hugs him, crying about what had happened to Taka. Heita suddenly kisses her, and she pushes him away only to be mauled by the brown bear. Heita begins to flee and runs into Sugimoto and Asirpa, telling them that they have to run as he is the next to be targeted. Sugimoto says that he will be fine with them and asks where the bear is. Heita says that it is not possible as the bear will definitely get him just like it got his family.

Meanwhile, Shiraishi is able to find Vasily, who is still drawing in his sketchbook. As Heita laments over Noriko’s death, Sugimoto asks him who the people that he had mentioned were. Shiraishi takes a look over Vasily’s shoulder and finds that he is drawing Heita, who is revealed to be one of the Abashiri Convicts as well. It is revealed that Heita’s family were all inside of his head and that he was pretending to be them. Asirpa points to the brown bear pelt laying at Heita’s feet, which Heita is surprised to see. Picking it up, Heita claims that he kept getting rid of it but it would keep coming back to him all the time.

Suigimoto is perplexed by Heita’s words, saying that he had been carrying it on his back all the time like it was something important to him. Asirpa believes that the bear that Sugimoto and Shiraishi had seen earlier must have been the pelt and that the Wen Kamuy that Heita spoke of had only existed inside his own head. Heita suddenly falls over to the ground with the pelt covering him, causing Sugimoto to become alarmed. As Heita envisions the bear eating him, he begins to stand up and assaults Sugimoto, who manages to block his attack with his left arm, causing it to break. Having lost his mind, Heita begins to roar at Sugimoto and Asirpa.

## Location Info

### Located in

Kabato district, Sorachi Subprefecture, Hokkaido, Japan.

### Inhabitants

Matasuke Ooshima (Warden)
Prisoners

The **Kabato Prison** is one of the many prisons in Japan. The current warden is Matasuke Ooshima.

## Overview

Following the turmoil of the Meiji Restoration, there was a vast increase in the number of political prisoners. The existing prisons around the country were severely overcrowded, so Kabato Prison was built as a way to hold these prisoners.

Kabato Prison has at least two kinds of cells: the communal cells where the prisoners regularly stay in, together in odd numbers, in order to prevent them from raping each other, and the punishment cells known as the "Black Rooms" where the prisoners are thrown in with less than adequate living conditions. The prisoners wear red prison uniforms that makes them stand out with their prisoner numbers sewn on the collars of their uniform.

Shinpachi Nagakura once served as the swordsmanship instructor for the guards at Kabato Prison. Even after leaving that position, Nagakura continues to hold short training sessions a few times every year for at least 20 years. As a result, Nagakura may have some power at Kabato Prison to be able to arrange private meetings with prisoners without any guards present. A nun known as Sister Miyazawa came to Kabato Prison often in order to provide religious counseling services to the prisoners before it was abandoned.

Sometime after Yoshitake Shiraishi turned 20 years old, he was sent to Kabato Prison where he became cell mates with Chouan Kumagishi and Zenjirou Shibukawa. However, Shiraishi was able to break out by deceiving the guards using the shell of a stag beetle he claims to have befriended.

One day, a man named Kiyohiro Suzukawa came to Kabato Prison, pretending to be an important government official. Once inside, he flipped a fire switch that would open all of the communal cells at once, thus allowing all the convicts, including Kumagishi, Ekurok, Ekurok's Brother, and Retanno Ekasi to escape. As a result of this huge blunder, the warden at the time was fired and replaced by Ooshima.

**Uilta People**, or **The Uilta People** (ウイルタ民族, *Uiruta Minzoku*) is the 159th chapter of the *Golden Kamuy* manga.

## Synopsis

In the town of Shisuka (modern day Poronaysk), Asirpa's group separates with the Karafuto Ainu men that helped transport them via dog sleds. As they trek through the forest, Shiraishi suggests they hunt some sables as their pelts sell for a lot of money but Asirpa says that due to the cold weather, it will be harder to catch them. They come across a casket which Kiroranke describes was made by the Orok people to lay their dead to rest in the open air.

Asirpa does not know who the Orok are and Kiroranke explains about the different kinds of people that lives in Karafuto; the Karafuto Ainu, the Orok (Uilta people), and the Gilyak (Nivkh people). Just then, they hear a gunshot which was fired by Ogata who says that he saw an Ezo deer but Kiroranke says there aren't any in Karafuto. Upon closer examination, they see it is a reindeer and that it has a collar around its neck, which meant that it belonged to someone. Kiroranke thinks that there may be some Orok nearby and they see an Orok man in the distance, whereaupon the group teases Ogata about killing his reindeer.

Asirpa's group meets the owner of the reindeer who asks them to give him one of their own reindeer but upon seeing that they have none, suggests that they hunt for one together. When Ogata and Shiraishi gets annoyed by this, Kiroranke explains that the Orok measures wealth by how many domestic reindeers they have and tells Asirpa that her father once accidently shot a reindeer as well. Ogata then asks Asirpa if she wants to come join the hunt with him, which she accepts.

As they scout out the reindeers, Kiroranke continues to explain about the Orok customs and Asirpa blurts out a word that her father had told her before. While they prepare their reindeer hunt, one of the domesticated reindeers turns around and bites Shiraishi's head. Shiraishi once again complains about the sidetracking but Kiroranke says that in order to continue on from Shisuka, they'd have to make contact with the Oroks.

Chapter 209

## Kesorap

**Kesorap** (ケソラㇷ゚, *Kesorapu*) is the 209th chapter of the *Golden Kamuy* manga.

## Synopsis

Ryu is promoted to being the *isohseta* (lead dog) of the sled carrying Sugimoto's Group and Sugimoto compliments Ryu on his new headdress. Back at Enonoka's village, Sugimoto's Group talks about leaving Ryu behind as he has found a place to belong to and they thank him by rubbing him. They see a man passing by on his horse-drawn sledge and Tsukishima notes that he is going to Odomari and so asked him to take the whole group with him.

Enonoka begins to cry as she counts out the money that Koito has paid her for their dog sled service and Cikapasi calls out to her, but she ignores him, walking away. Sugimoto says that they can wait for him to talk with her and Cikapasi finds her sitting beneath a tree. Enonoka declares that she will not say her goodbyes and will wait for Cikapasi to come back, asking him not to lose his *hohciri* when he cuts it off and to not forget about her. Cikapasi swears that he will not and that he will come back as Koito calls for everyone to leave.

Sugimoto's Group says their farewells to Enonoka, her grandfather, and Ryu. Cikapasi stares at Enonoka who is hiding behind her grandfather before popping out, screaming his name. As Cikapasi tells her to wait for him and that he will be back, he slips off of the sled, causing Tanigaki to request for the sled to stop. Tanigaki asks Cikapasi if he is okay and Shiraishi tells him to hurry up and get back on the sled. Cikapasi continues to stare at Enonoka and thinks back on the time they spent together.

Tanigaki gets off the sled as well, asking Sugimoto's Group to wait for him as he walks towards Cikapasi. He begins to cry, telling Cikapasi to stay with Enonoka's village and to make a real family for himself. Cikapasi wells up with tears as well, noting that Inkarmat is also all by herself and that Tanigaki should become a family with her. Tanigaki gives Cikapasi Nihei's rifle, saying that it was passed down to him by the man who saved his life and to use it to go hunting when he gets older.

Tanigaki states that he will no longer be at his side to support him and that when he uses Nihei's gun, he needs to stand on his own, and Cikapasi exclaims that standing on his own is also a boner which Tanigaki confirms it. Cikapasi tells Tanigaki to bring Asirpa home and make Huci feel better and Tanigaki promises to do so as he returns to the sled. Sugimoto's Group then says their farewells to Cikapasi as the young boy prepares to start a new life with Enonoka and her village.

## Synopsis

Sugimoto's Group and the 7th Division are alarmed to come face to face with each other on the steam train when Ushiyama comes charging in and throwing the soldiers around. The soldiers are stunned to see that they are facing down Ushiyama the Undefeated and Hijikata prepares to join the fray with his sword drawn out. As Sugimoto readies himself for a fight, he tells Shiraishi to take Asirpa and get off the train.

As Asirpa informs Tanigaki that they are getting off the train, Tanigaki is shot in the back from outside, horrifying the young girl. Tanigaki silently closes the door and falls off the train while Asirpa and Shiraishi scrambles to keep the door shut. Tsurumi peers in from outside befofre smashing his head against the window and attempts to grab Asirpa's quiver. Sugimoto rams his bayonet knife into Tsurumi's hand but Tsurumi fires at him with his other hand, hitting Sugimoto in the shoulder.

Asirpa tries to divert Tsurumi's gun but Tsurumi ignores the knife in his hand and tries to pull up the quiver. However, Shiraishi manages to hold the quiver down while Sugimoto stabs at Tsurumi's face with his bayonet, thus allowing Asirpa to get away with the quiver in hand. Tsurumi tells Tsukishima, who is riding outside, that Asirpa is moving beneath the seats and heading towards the front.

Chapter 9

## Cornered Rat

* Color
* Volume

**Cornered Rat** (窮鼠, *Kyūso*) is the 9th chapter of the *Golden Kamuy* manga.

## Synopsis

Upon realizing they cannot outrun their pursuers, Sugimoto offers Asirpa to split up. He hands her the tattooed skins and tells her to not fight back and simply give the skins to the soldiers if she is found, as he believes they won't harm her. Sugimoto says that all that matters for Asirpa is that the gold is found; who gets to do it is irrelevant, so she should do as Sugimoto asks her. Asirpa looks concerned and warns Sugimoto against fighting the 7th Division soldiers because they will kill him. Sugimoto turns to her and says that he is immortal.

The four soldiers find the tracks. Genjirou Tanigaki points at Asirpa's footprints and notes that it's where Sugimoto and her split up. The officer in charge orders Tanigaki to follow Asirpa while he and the other two pursue Sugimoto. Tanigaki follows Asirpa's footprints and realizes that the girl doubled back on her tracks, just like animals would do. He looks at the bamboo grass and examines the bark of nearby Jezo Spruce, noticing that it's been torn off recently. Tanigaki looks up at the tree branches and tells Asirpa to climb down, promising he won't harm her. Asirpa stays silent, so Tanigaki asks if she understands Japanese. Asirpa decides to play along and replies to him in Ainu,

Tanigaki asks Asirpa to come down, and after thinking for a few moments she agrees. Asirpa leaves the tattooed skin on the branch and Tanigaki helps her climb down. He asks Asirpa about Sugimoto, wondering if he is her brother or father. Suddenly, a squirrel wobbles the branch with the tattooed skin, causing it to fall down. Tanigaki is shocked to see a child carry the skin, and Asirpa reaches for her quiver. Before she can do anything, Tanigaki commands her to drop the bow. Terrified, Asirpa drops her weapon. Tanigaki notes that Asirpa can actually understand Japanese. He then loads his rifle and tells her to put the quiver and knives down, too. Something catches Asirpa's attention: as Tanigaki turns his head, he sees Retar charging at him.

In the meantime, Sugimoto is running away from the three soldiers. The scarred soldier draws his rifle at Sugimoto and tells him to stop and throw down his weapons. Sugimoto stops and puts his hands up and says he was thinking they wanted to arrest him for poaching. He adds that the Ainu girl was his guide. The officer in charge and the other man assume they got the wrong idea about Sugimoto and ask if he's seen anyone suspicious around. However, the soldier with a scar recognizes Sugimoto from seeing him at the field hospital in Port Arthur. He calls him Sugimoto the Immortal from the 1st Division, and the soldiers realize that the "Immortal" clue that Ogata gave them was about Sugimoto. The soldiers aim their weapons at unarmed Sugimoto, who is standing right in front of an uprooted tree which in fact a bear's den; a pair of shining eyes is seen inside the den.
