"The Key Point is the Scene Where Hands are Placed Together" - What Are the Highlights According to 8 Voice Actors from the Anime 'Golden Kamuy'?

Eiji Takemoto, who plays Sergeant Hajime Tsukishima of the 7th Division alongside 2nd Lieutenant Koito, also talks about the changes in the character he plays. "Tsukishima initially appeared as a career soldier, and the character didn't have much color to him at that point, but as the story progresses and he interacts with various people, more and more color comes out, and his humanity is depicted. I think there are parts you won't understand from just watching once, so if you rewatch it multiple times, the resolution of the developments in the final chapter from here on will likely increase."

Yoshitsugu Matsuoka, who plays Private First Class Tokishige Usami, whose highly impactful scenes are depicted in the theatrical advance version, speaks about Usami, who like Koito shows devotion to Lieutenant Tsurumi: "I think when Usami first appeared, people didn't understand why he was so devoted to Lieutenant Tsurumi, but I think if you watch it again now, you'll understand. He was thought to be just a crazy person who would turn a drawn-on mole into a tattoo, but you'll understand the meaning of his absolute determination to follow this person even if it costs him his life, and the words he wants Lieutenant Tsurumi to say to him. So while he is a pervert, I think you'll understand that he is a person who is that single-minded."

Jōji Nakata, who plays Toshizō Hijikata, the leader of the Hijikata faction, reflected deeply on the passage of time, saying, "It's already been 8 years (since the series started)..." He continued, "For those who have been watching from the beginning, and those who started watching midway, I hope that by providing opportunities like this, we can work together to aim for the (series') goal and build excitement. Even for us who are performing, there are times when we forget which episode was which, so I'd be happy if you take this opportunity to watch from the first episode, and of course, for those who haven't seen it yet, to follow the TV series."

Kentarō Itō, who plays Yoshitake Shiraishi of the Sugimoto group that has been traveling since the early part of the series, reflected, "As expected, 'Golden Kamuy' is a work that's suited for the big screen, I thought once again. It's a continuous succession of powerful scenes that make you want to watch even the previous works on the big screen, even if just as a compilation," while also commenting on the troublemaker Shiraishi he plays.

"People really wonder whether this guy is an ally or an enemy, but by the time we reached the fallen tree scene at the end of the fourth season, I entered the final chapter as a Shiraishi who has completely opened his heart to these two people (Sugimoto and Asirpa). While being influenced by Bōtarō, his fellow prisoner from long ago, I think you can enjoy the process of how he changes if you watch while reflecting on how he was at the beginning and how Shiraishi will move toward his final decision."
