Golden Kamuy adapts Satoru Noda's historical adventure manga, which ran in Young Jump magazine from August 2014 to April 2022. Shueisha published the 31st and final volume in July 2022. The manga has a cumulative 29 million copies in circulation. VIZ Media licensed the manga in English in October 2016 and released the 31st and final volume in January 2024. The first three seasons produced by Geno Studio aired in Spring 2018, Fall 2018, and Fall 2020, each running for 12 episodes. The fourth season, produced by Brain's Base, began airing in Fall 2022 but had a six-month delay after the sixth episode due to the death of an important staff member. The fourth season restarted from the first episode in Spring 2023. Crunchyroll and Funimation streamed all four seasons with subtitles and an English dub, respectively.
