The song is titled  “Kagayakerumono” (Those Who Shine).

It was also revealed that the song was specifically made for the film, as ACIDMAN group members are already fans of the manga.

The film is scheduled to premiere on January 19.

The film is based on Shigeaki Kubo’s manga, Golden Kamuy. He published the manga in Shueisha’s Young Jump magazine in 2014 and completed its run in April 2022.

Golden Kamuy received its first anime adaptation in April 2018. Later in October 2018, the second season of the anime premiered.

The third season premiered in October 2020, and the first part of season four premiered in October 2022, airing only six episodes.

Production delayed the other episode due to the passing of a main staff member of the anime on November 1.

The anime then continued its broadcast on April 3 by rebroadcasting the first episode.

Anime has already been greenlit for its final arc.
