The show Golden Kamuy (Original Japanese Version) season 2 episode 5 named Inside the Belly follows the adventures of Sugimoto, a soldier who fights in the Russo-Japanese War and Asirpa, a young Ainu girl, as they continue their search for the hidden gold of the Ainu people. In this episode, the duo finds themselves in a tight spot after being caught in a trap set by the prisoners inside the Abashiri prison.
In the previous episode, Sugimoto and Asirpa made their way to Abashiri prison with the hopes of finding more information about the tattooed skins that they have been seeking. However, their attempt to sneak into the prison unnoticed was discovered by the prisoners who are currently housed in the facility. The prisoners, who are also after the same gold that Sugimoto and Asirpa are looking for, capture the duo and limit their chances of escaping.
Inside the Belly takes viewers on a nerve-wracking journey as the duo is confined to a small cell, where they must use their wits to keep themselves alive. With the prisoners making their intentions very clear, Sugimoto and Asirpa know that they are stuck in a dangerous situation that could cost them their lives and their chance to find the hidden gold.
As the episode progresses, Sugimoto and Asirpa come up with a plan to escape their confinement. However, their plan is quickly foiled by the prisoners, who have their eyes on Sugimoto's surgically-implanted stashed gun. As they had hoped, his gun has the potential to give them an edge and help them achieve their goals.
From here on, the episode takes a dark and violent turn, as Sugimoto and Asirpa find themselves caught up in a brawl between rival groups of prisoners inside the prison. They'll have to fight off inmates with their bare hands as they try to escape. Sugimoto's background as a soldier finally comes in handy when he takes out one criminal after another, protecting the young Asirpa as they make their escape.
At every step of the way, Sugimoto and Asirpa will have to rely on their instincts, intelligence, and ability to fight to survive the dangerous situation they're in. With crisis after crisis, viewers will be on the edge of their seats, trying to figure out just what will happen to the two adventurers.
Inside the Belly is not an episode for the faint of heart, with plenty of blood and gore throughout the episode. However, it's also a thrilling ride that takes viewers on a captivating journey through the dark and often dangerous world of the Ainu. Despite the violent nature of the episode, it's not without its lighter moments, and fans of the series will appreciate how the characters continue to evolve and grow in exciting ways.
Overall, Inside the Belly is an exciting episode that builds the tension and delivers plenty of action and thrills. As Sugimoto and Asirpa inch closer to their goal of finding the treasure, viewers will be glued to the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating what comes next in this riveting anime series.
