What is the premise of Golden Kamuy? 

Satoru Noda’s Golden Kamuy manga tells the story of Saichi Sugimoto, nicknamed Immortal, who is a veteran of the Russo-Japanese War. Based in the early-twentieth century, the story finds Sugimoto coming across a map to a hidden fortune of gold of the Ainu people. He embarks on a journey to find this reservoir of gold and is helped by a young Ainu girl named Asirpa. But the treacherous and cold region of Hokkaido is the least of their worries as the duo come across other parties who are also interested in the treasure, and they are not afraid to kill for it. With the help of Asirpa, Sugimoto is determined to fight everyone in his way and find the treasure of gold himself. 

The manga started to serialize in Shueisha's Weekly Young Jump seinen magazine in 2014 and ended in 2022. The English version of the manga is available on VIZ Media. The anime adaptation, which started in 2018 and is awaiting a fifth season, is available for international viewers on Crunchyroll.
