Golden Kamuy Anime Shop Offers Exclusive Merch, Exhibits, Photo Spots
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
A special Golden Kamuy anime shop will run at several locations in Japan in June. The shop will exclusively sell merchandise related to the anime, including limited-edition goods.
In addition to selling merchandise, the shop will include an exhibition space, game corner, and photo spots. For every 1,000 yen (about US$9) that people spend on the promotion, they will receive one of eight bromides at random.
The main "Golden Kamuy Only Shop" will run at Animate Sapporo in Hokkaido from June 2-10, and at Animate Osaka Nipponbashi in Osaka and Shosen Grande in Tokyo from June 16-24. Because the anime is set in Hokkaido, four locations in the prefecture will also offer "support shops" with mini exhibits, limited-edition merchandise, and the bonus bromides. Animate locations inside Aeon stores in Kushiro, Hakodate, New Chitose Airport, and Asahikawa will run the support shop from June 2-24. In addition, Animate Sapporo will run the support shop from June 11-24.
The Golden Kamuy television anime premiered on April 9. Crunchyroll is streaming the series with English subtitles as it airs in Japan.
Crunchyroll describes the story:
The story takes place in the mighty Northern field of Hokkaido, the time is in the turbulent late Meiji Era. A post war soldier Sugimoto, aka, “Immortal Sugimoto” was in need of large sums of money for a particular purpose…. What awaited Sugimoto, who stepped into Hokkaido's Gold Rush with dreams of making a fortune, was a tattoo map leading to a hidden treasure based on hints inscribed on the bodies of convicts in Abashiri Prison?! The magnificent nature of Hokkaido vs vicious convicts and the meeting with a pure Ainu girl, Ashiripa!! A survival battle for a hidden treasure hunt begins!
