THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I thought this episode is quite amusing tbh with their performances. Sugimoto's clever mind is put to work again when he came up with that plan.

Looks like this season decided to add more light comedy and again, more man service. Suigimoto's performance with that sword is quite badass.

Although Sugimoto's quick move was as cool as Zatoichi, the old female choreographer went above and beyond.

YUPPIES, more journey with Kiroranke and Co., plus Sugimoto and Co. coinciding with a circus troupe in Toyohara (to which the content is skipped to Chapter 154 to 158).

Didn't expect Lieutenant Koito to be the most athletic of the bunch, and huge laughs for Cikapasi and Tsukishima being degraded to being dance girls. Sugimoto having to master the Harakiri is a cinch though.

Sugimoto's Harakiri show...WHAT THE SHIT, Koito!? That's payback...? But this is Sugimoto the Immortal we're talking about, having to bear blood and play the act of the victim, WHEW that got me there. Turns out that the ringmaster is another anomymity to the Russian farce, and what a landmark case to aid Sugimoto and Co. to another step of Asirpa's.

No wonder today's episode is The Immortal Sugimoto Harakiri Show, what a brillant name. Excellent episode of comedy and big fun laughter, while Tsukishima is being a poker face 100% of the time of normalcy. POOP!

I know the show will somehow have Sugimoto do harakiri for real, because that's how Sugimoto does his business. Though there's a twist that Russians come into the circus instead.

Nice episode, I love how Golden Kamuy has such a wide range of variety.

After how emotional and heavy last week was it's nice to be back to the good ole antics this series does well. Having the guys join a circus to try and get the word out that Sugimoto is still alive is brilliant. Perfectly hilarious. Sugimoto this whole episode being jealous of Koito getting all the attention made me laugh all throughout. He kinda had a reason to be annoyed since Koito out shining him made the whole thing pointless but still it was too funny watching Sugimoto get jealous like a little kid. Koito can really move it, him chasing the kid at the start and then all the acrobatics were great. So many funny moments this episode with Tanigaki bonding with the dancing girls, while Tsukishima had this wtf face on the whole time, to the old lady dancing teacher saying those weird comments, to when Sugimoto did the sword trick and teasing the crowd and finally the newspaper misprint. Great comedic episode for the show while also having some serious parts of Asirpa remembering something about her father and Sugimoto group finding their next destination.

They’re putting too much pressure on Genjirou, he just wanted to be a good dancer :(

Sugimoto was about to do harakiri but thanks to the Russians he played it out. Golden Kamuy’s still going strong.

Is there anything Sugimoto won't do to find Asirpa, also I feel like his name will somehow spread anyway considering he is immortal.

Was highly anticipating this episode and certainly delivered. Putting aside the great story, it's the funniest anime currently. Would even go as far as claiming, the funniest from the last couple of years.

I'm normally never a fan of shows like these going hard with comedy, but Golden Kamuy's one of the few that can pull it off. This whole episode was just jokes from beginning to end.

The fact the studio made Tanigaki’s neck very thick made the episode more hilarious. Overall it’s another great episode showing how much of a dorky badass Sugimoto is. An absolute unit.

Get out there and bow for the crowd and grab the bodies while they're distracted, followed by the scene is possibly one of the best comedic events of the year! Dude in his tutu. Priceless.

Every Monday feels good when I watch an episode of Golden Kamuy and these episodes keep getting better with comedy. So Sugimoto decides to join the circus in hoping that Asirpa would find him alive. This plan did not go so well because Koito kept outshining him with his athleticism and poor Sugimoto had to perform the Harakiri with a real blade.

Best episode so far! So many hilarious comedic moments, mainly from Sugimoto & Koito's circus rivalry haha I was actually on the edge of my seat when Sugimoto put that katana to his stomach. I thought 'seriously, how is he gonna get out of this one?!'

That scene with Asirpa's group and the deer was so funny too, but then I remembered that Kiroranke & Ogata are treacherous pieces of shit and it kinda dampened the fun...

Sugimoto's trolling face was brilliant!! Eventho he realised that it was an actual blade, he still continued. He would be the person crazy enough to cut his own stomach as well, luckily for him those russians walked in!

This episode was hilarious with all the faces and circus rivalry.

This are the best GIFs ever. Period.

I can't believe how good this series is. Sugimoto is rapidly becoming one of my favorite characters ever in all of fiction in any medium.

Golden Kamuy continued with its usual lesson by Ainu standardization. The first part was not surprising. Its really a little lesson from your fellow Ainu to told me one or two things. Ogata reaction surely the best for me on these part. Kiroranke reached a nice memories of Asirpa. It might led them to find the key to the gold locations. But for now, its still a mystery about the truth. Well, lets move on to the other teams on their behind!

Hah, i never expected the pursuit team led by Tsukishima did a bit of circus performance under the ring master that actually ex spy. That dancing coach too, actually a badass person to shot that rusia spy without a doubt, its really caught off my guard. As expected from Golden Kamuy usual antic, that shocking moments were real. Even a common entertainer like a circus show had a massive twist and maniac behind it xD.

Well, not much happened at the first place. Since it seemed Sugimoto and his teams actually really lost Asirpa's trace while the last event happened on the previous episode. However, a little information from that circus owner, at least gave a little hope for him to found out where Asirpa's and the rest were locate. A nice progression at the end of the episode to moved on the plot into a better positions.

The circus part had a lot of funny moments on it. Sugimoto almost died when doing a real Harakiri. Tsukishima fucked them up, trying to sabotage Koito's action, but Koito himself thought its Sugimoto's job. So thats why shit almost choking them. Fortunately that rusia peoples arrived at the right time to stopped a failure to the show, lol. In another matter, Koito somewhat became the a real star on these episode. Because of his talented move on the acrobatic matter really amazing and deserved more recognition. Its really good to see Koito shine more. The previous one really had a less screen time of him. Meanwhile, Tanigaki kept his melancholic approaching at his best, and Tsukishima's plain reaction in the background to responded Tanigaki was a laughable material for me.

Well, the next one must be good by looking to its title. The real hunt must began, including Kiroranke's group as the main subject that might became a great turn-point of these season. Lets see....

Tanigaki nispa is such a treasure ♥ I love this manly yet soft dude so much.

Fantastic episode once again. The sudden switch from silly humor to morbid comedy was so unexpected yet I think I ended up laughing even harder in the end. Sugimoto trolling with the sword and every scene featuring Tanigaki got me so good xD
And man, now I really want "The IMMORAL Sugimoto" name to spread across the country just for the lolz.

Koito had me dead when he was diving after the picture of Tsurumi lol. Genjirou's unexpected emotional commitment to the dance routine, and of course Sugimoto's harakiri show were also both hilarious. The audience witnessed Russian dudes get killed in front of their own eyes and thought it was just part of the show xD this anime is a fucking treasure, one of the few that has an overall serious story, but can seamlessly pull off that comedic transition.

Another fantastic episode, and probably one of the funniest episodes so far of the whole series. That episode was a fucking ride, especially so for Tanigaki's emotional state lmao.

Asirpa is too much of a dork to notice Sugimoto's performance and does she even read the newspaper lmao. But, we got a clue though let's fucking go. This season has been super good so far.

I yearn for the day Golden Kamuy actually becomes as popular as the likes of Gintama and JoJo.
