Is the Golden Kamuy manga ending soon? According to Shueisha’s Weekly Young Jump magazine, the manga series by creator Satoru Noda entered its climax phase with the May 2021 release of Golden Kamuy Chapter 277: Operation Defend Hanazawa Yuusaku’s Virginity.
(With a chapter title like that, you have to wonder if the bodily-humor loving creator timed the climax announcement as a meta joke.)
While the Golden Kamuy manga’s ending is not right around the corner, it’s definitely on the horizon now that this announcement has been made. It just depends on how many chapters the climax phase will run before moving onto the conclusion of the story.

Hinna, hinna! The Golden Kamuy Season 4 anime will feature the “Immortal” Saichi Sugimoto and Asirpa journeying through Karafuto back to Hokkaido after they’re reunited. The Ainu girl recovered her memories and now she holds the key everyone is desperately seeking.
But anime fans hungry for more episodes are already asking about when Golden Kamuy Season 4 will be released.
The day the third season ended, the director tweeted about how difficult it was to decide how to end the third season. He says it can be considered the reunion of Sugimoto and Asirpa, but they purposefully left an opening for the fourth season.
