Golden Kamuy - Vol. 18 Ch. 179 - Mamiya Strait

He is holding the dead baby in a same way he held the Bonnie & Clyde one.
 
Fuck, I even thought for a moment that there was a new character until I was
(Wait, tsurumi?)
-processing-
.......
DAMN


Even he had a life before
 
Man, I used to really dislike Tsurumi, but this just made me feel bad for him. No wonder he was so gentle with O-gin's baby. Maybe he was reminded of his own child. Poor dude.
 
Have always liked Tsurumi for his goofy sadism, but this other side to him confirmed him as best GK character for me.
 
Oh man, the mangaka's really good with unveiling backstory mmm...
 
Oh my god, this is a real, honest twist. Tsurumi actually was once a reasonably well-adjusted person (though no mention of what sort of crazy stuff he undoubtedly got up to with his wife in bed) with a family.

I can't believe this arc actually has a solid tie back to the main series, and the reveal is both logical and terrifying/entertaining. This is genius writing.
 
Tsurumi’s backstory was done so well I was genuinely surprised.

On another note, I wonder what a child raised by Tsurumi would be like?
