First time reading the GK manga (I’ve watched the anime several times). Something about it tickles the fuck outta me 😹 Noda is a genius of character writing, for creating a dynamic with so much emotional breadth that this makes perfect sense
I love how the series can fluctuate between comedic horny closeted homosexuals and post-battlefield men dreadfully rebuilt by war
They are both Ainu from both series who are equally skilled at using bows. Who do you think would win if they fought each other?

I spent about 3 weeks working on this cosplay! All of it was handmade or reworked pieces. Pretty happy with how it turned out. The quiver opens up and has a poster tube in it for extra storage! Super convenient for buying posters in Artist Alley.
i know the earring looks wack but i barely ever do fanart, but gk has reignited that passion again
I've been rewatching Golden Kamuy as a refresher before starting the Final Season and I've also been reading the manga to view the content that wasn't adapted. When I reached Episode 15, a line stuck out to me that didn't make any sense.
(Dub Lines)
Warden Inudo (speaking to Nagakura): "From what I understood, you two parted ways back before the Hakodate War, right? I'm under no obligation to give prisoner information to unrelated persons. You lost your brother in the Hokodate War when he fought on the New Government's side."
Nagakura (Speaking to Inudo): "You may hate him for that, but why hide him from the Goverment? Why keep him hidden instead of executing him?"
This made no sense. Nagakura lost his brother? What brother? Okay, maybe he's referring to Hijikata since they were close like brothers. But when he fought for the New Government? The Shinsengumi fought against the New Government, not for. Did Hijikata switch sides in the Golden Kamuy continuity? Why would he do that? Am I misunderstanding my Japanese history? I spent like half an hour scrolling through wiki pages reviewing the Shinsengumi, the Tokugawa Shogunate, Hijikata Toshizo, Shinpachi Nagakura, and the Battle of Hakodate trying to understand what this line was saying and came up with nothing. So I gave up and just accepted that maybe they'll explain it later. That was until I reached the same part in the manga and realized the line "You lost your brother..." was supposed to belong to Nagakura, not Inudo. This makes a lot more sense, explaining Inudo's grudge towards Hijikata rather than just being petty for no real reason. A really unfortunate erroneous dub read.
I was trying to see how do I better draw this beauty. I have multiple styles and still, wanted his features to me more consistent in my arts 😔
I’m on chapter 236 and in a flash back the pirate is naked and on a futon in front of the yakuza boss…
I’m a white American so I’ve never met any Ainu before and I’d love to hear what y’all think of this manga
Ive seen different opinions on it’s representation some says it’s representation is horrendous and others say it’s really good
I’m not going to defend the manga or say anyone’s opinions are wrong I’d just like to know an Ainu’s thoughts
examples may vary
I recently binged the anime within two weeks, decided to doodle best boy :)
I'm a little rusty but I hope to draw more characters! I love how unique they're all designed despite many of them having similar hair/clothes
Please no spoilers;
I just completed episode 10 of the anime, and i like a lot of the characters, the stories and just the general build up of different teams chasing the same thing.
I do however sorta dislike sugimoto, just because he seems "op" and has plot armour. It's just boring watching scenes with him because its obvious what's gonna happen, and obviously the other charaters will suffer at the cost of him.
It reminds me a lot of battle shonens, and i sort of dislike that. So i was wondring if it gets better? I really liked AoT because the lines were very blurred throughout about who was the antagonist and protagonist.
Thanks for taking the time to anwser.
rereading the manga and tanigaki looked so miserable and tense lmao😭
