During his hunt for gold, he finds hints of a hidden stash of gold by corrupt criminals. Partnering with an Ainu girl that saves his life from the harsh climates of the north, they venture into a survival adventure in a race against the criminals that seek the hidden stash.

| Personally, I'm very excited about this. Been reading it since its release and it has over 100+ chapters to work with which can easily be adapted into a 2 cour. The studio? I'm hoping they get a good one for this. |
|
| interesting hope a good studio take it |
 |
| I would've been happy if I didn't acknowledge the fact that nearly every YJ anime has failed miserably... |

Most of YJ series are mainstream titles in the first place and not much care about Disc sales, similar situation as WSJ. So what? If not, Golden Kamui is one of the most popular series in YJ, so if they're going to animate this series like they did for TG or Kingdom, this is destined to fail. Furthermore, Golden Kamui is pretty explicit, and I can practically smell the disgusting censorship from a mile away, ready to fuck up the series. |
| i have read the manga and i can say that this is quite a good series but i don't know why but this series always give me homoerotic feeling with all that male nudity |
| Sounds interesting, I'll be sure to check it out. @umashikaneko I don't think he means failure in terms of disc sales, I think he means failure as in a bad adaptation. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| @umashikaneko np. I just hope they'll do the manga justice, even though it's highly unlikely... |
| YOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! time for muh lovable psychopat got his anime adapttion... i wonder who will become their VA... i don't expect much about anime adaptation, but more ads is never a bad thing! |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| Quite the interesting and unique manga. I'm looking forward to see how they adapt it. |
 |
| I've been waiting for this, I just hope a good studio adapts it. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| this sounds like it could be pretty bitching |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |

| Considering its sales, an anime adaptation isn't surprising. I was actually planning on starting the manga this week. Well, I'll still start it though :P |
 |
| I was interested in the manga before so I'm glad there'll be an anime for it so I can watch it instead. |
| Sounds interesting. Will give this a watch. |

Then it may not be worth watching if the violence and any nudity is heavily censored especially if AT-X isn't airing it. |

One of the best in the current YJ manga. |
| Censuurrreeeeee |
| Super excited, hopefully it falls in capable hands. |
| :3 |
| Oh man, this has every bit of potential to be an anime of its season with its concept and character design. Guess it's all going to fall down to the roulette of studio choice, but I'll be keeping my eyes close on this one! |

SogiitaGunha said: Ono Daisuke for Sugimoto. Sugita for Shiraishi. Fujiwara Keiji for Tsurumi. Suwabe for Ogata. Please! Sugimoto - Hosoya Yoshimasa Shiraishi - Matsuoka Yoshitsugu Tsurumi - Ootsuka Akio Ogata - Sakurai Takahiro Tanigaki - Seki Tomokazu Professor Penis - Inada Tetsu Asirpa - some new voice actress, maybe? Studio - Madhouse/Bones. But it's would be hard to adapt without censorship. And i'm ready to some people to call it Shokugeki no Kamuy. |
 |
| Im in for this , . .. |
| Fucking yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!! I love this manga. |
 |
| Sounds interesting. Might watch. |
| YES I'm excited started reading the manga recently, it's very good I hope they'll animate all the fights and expressions properly... especially expressions. |
| Nice, it's a pretty good mango, hope it's not a shit studio who got it. |
| I started reading the manga yesterday, and it's really interesting: not only is there loads of action but there's a lot of info on the Ainu lifestyle. Love it when it's set in Japan's past. Hope the anime does just as well as the manga. But I've got a lot to catch up: I've only read 21 chapters... |

| Holy shit! Best news for a while! Golden Kamuy is one of the best historical adventure titles out there! Adventure, comedy, action, and gore,... everything just fit so well. Can't wait for more information about it! |
| The setting for this IP is just amazing to me. Being a huge history fan I really appreciate the fact the setting is sometime after the Russo-Japanese War. It uses a lot of old world history while exploring the Ainu culture. Bolt action rifles, military uniforms, its essentially feels like a Japanese western in the snow. |
