For the anime’s opening, ALI will perform the song "NEVER SAY GOODBYE” featuring Mummy-D.

Meanwhile, the season’s ending theme is "Subete ga Soko ni Arimasu You Ni" (I Pray That Everything Will be There) by THE SPELLBOUND.
Golden Kamuy Season 4 Release Date, Info
Golden Kamuy is a historical anime series that’s based on the manga of the same name by Satoru Noda. The manga was serialized in Weekly Young Jump from August 2014 to April 2022.
The anime series’ first three seasons were animated by Geno Studio. For Season 4, anime studio Brain’s Base (To Your Eternity, In/Spectre) has taken over production duties.
Its story follows Saichi Sugimoto, known as the “Immortal Sugimoto” for his savagery during the Russo-Japanese war. After the war, Sugimoto has taken to gold panning to provide for his dead comrade’s wife.
Soon, he happens upon a mysterious traveler who tells him of an urban legend about the gold of the native Ainu people that was hidden away, with the only map to it being tattooed on the skins of escaped convicts.
After meeting an Ainu girl named Asirpa in the forest, Sugimoto sets off with his new companion to find the gold. Though Asirpa is uninterested in gold and is instead seeking revenge for her father who was one of the betrayed Ainu miners in the legend.
