| So thankful for Golden Kamuy. What a masterful episode. Tanigaki's been my favorite character for a while now. I did not expect him to have this incredibly tragic backstory. |
| The most emotionally moving episode so far. Really adds an extra layer of depth to Tanigaki and to the series as a whole :) |
| Very tragic backstory, but really interesting! Really loved this episode. Looking forwards to see what's next! |

| I really like Tanigaki and his backstory was so damn sad. I felt so sorry for his brother in law and him. Probably the most emotional episode so far though the moment inside the deer in the last episode was also pretty emotional. |
| Tanigaki's backstory is pretty incredible and sad, damn to think that he chased his friend all the way to the battlefield with only revenge on his mind and than it turns out his friend was just acting as an evil guy so Tanigaki's family wouldn't be shunned. |
 |
| Wow, that backstory was just totally heartbreaking, great ! |
 |
| What an amazing episode holy shit, this definitely felt like the best episode so far. Seeing Tanigaki's backstory definitely cemented him as one of the best characters for me. That backstory was something else, poor Kenkichi he had to live his life bearing that guilt, Kenkichi was a hero. That Asirpa dance at the end was a good way to ease the pain of that backstory, I am going to say it again but, that was an amazing episode. |

| Holy shit. What was this? Suddenly its turned out to be so sad! Its about Tanigaki Genjirou's role, that led him into an unexpected sad bittersweet history! A past story, being a reason of his decision to be a soldier! How funny with their close relations, even from the very first beginning. The witness that lives to tell a tale from Russo-Japaness war. Tanigaki found Sugimoto in the war zone (eventhough they did not acknowledge and remember each others), Ogata with his spy members, and more importantly, Tsurumi. Tsurumi brought Tanigaki another roles, into his own loyalty, that survived until their current situations. What a complicated story they had. But, its surely a fate that led him into this kind of adventurous conditions. It was supposed to brought them back into their old self, their own true self. Its to destined their own roles to be a better future of them! The end scene must be brought back another misunderstanding. Tanigaki always meant to save Asirpa from the betrayer that mentioned in the previous episode by Inkarmat. However, he did not know the third people that worked together with Asirpa was Kiroranke. Since in his sight just Ogata, he did not trust him, he might just discarded and nevermind the others. As soon as they've met, he might pointing him out as a betrayer as soon as possible. Its kinda overwhelming. But, everything could be turned out into a bad situations from that shit. So, lets see the next one, then. How touchable their meeting after a long time never seen each others. Lol |

| This episode hit really hard,That backstory was so well done and gave Tanigaki more attention.He is one of those side characters you can root for and care about. Also, this episode gave that memorable quote and i love it. On a side note , this is my first time in an episode discussion forum lol. |
| The backstories in these past few episodes were almost hitting the right note, but this one... not just the note but the entire notebook. Brilliance through and through, and damn these eyes sweating for some reason. The whole crew is here now, 5/5. |
 |
| Positively surprised by the quality of this season so far |
| Tanigaki backstory time... damn smallpox 😥 |
 |
| Rewatching this show currently in preparation for the new season and this episode still hits quite a lot. Such a great and heavy, tragic backstory episode as a whole for Tanigaki. Definitely the best episode of this series 18 episodes in currently, although the previous one was pretty awesome in a different way too. |
| one of the best episodes of the show . |
| Well this episode had me sad as hell probably one of the best episodes of the entire show so far. |
 |
| This episode was a real tear jerker rip |
| Inhales oxygen |
Awesome Story, The things aren't always what we think |

| I was left speechless after seeing Tanigaki's backstory. Its always good to see the lives of our characters before the war and during the war. |
“There are only two types of people in the world--those who became otaku and those who didn't--and the latter just can't understand what the former is so excited about."--Ono Norihiro  |
| Poor Tanigaki was drunk in rage, trying to find his sister's killer just so he could get revenge but then he found out the truth :/ great episode! |
