The manga "Golden Kamuy" returns from its hiatus on July 29th, beginning the next chapter of the final story arc of Satoru Noda's work.
In May of this year, "Golden Kamuy" announced that it would reach the climax of its story. However, in June, the publisher revealed that Noda would take an indefinite hiatus due to health issues.
Satoru Noda began serializing the manga in August 2014 through Shueisha's Young Jump and has since managed to publish a total of 26 compiled volumes.
Viz Media describes the story as follows:
In the early 20th century, Russo-Japanese war veteran Saichi "Immortal" Sugimoto was leading a meager existence in the wilderness of Hokkaido during the gold rush. When he stumbles upon a map leading to a fortune of hidden Ainu gold, he embarks on a treacherous quest to find it—but Sugimoto isn’t the only one interested, and everyone who knows about the gold would kill to possess it! Facing harsh conditions in the northern wilderness, ruthless criminals, and rogue Japanese soldiers, Sugimoto will need all his skills, luck, and the help of an Ainu girl named Asirpa to survive.
