In the early twentieth century, Saichi "Immortal" Sugimoto, a Russo-Japanese War veteran, barely survives during the postwar gold rush in Hokkaido's wilderness. When he discovers a map leading to hidden Ainu gold, he embarks on a perilous journey to uncover this treasure. However, Sugimoto is not alone in his pursuit; others who know about the gold will stop at nothing to claim it. Confronted by the brutal northern wilderness, dangerous criminals, and rogue Japanese soldiers, Sugimoto must rely on all his skills and luck—and the assistance of an Ainu girl named Asirpa—to endure. Note: This work won the 9th Manga Taisho Award in 2016 and the 22nd Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize in 2018. It was nominated for the 20th and 21st Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize and the 40th Kodansha Manga Awards in 2016. It also received the 24th Japan Media Arts Festival Awards Social Impact Award in 2021 and the 51st Nihon Mangaka Kyoukai-shou Grand Prize for Comic and the Cartoonists Association Award in 2022.
