OBLIGATORY (NOT SO OBLIGATORY) PINNED.

a blog dedicated to posting daily panels of ipopte / ariko rikimatsu from golden kamuy. currently queued to post twice a day, though this may change.

panels are sourced from the official VIZ translation. any additional translations for context/correction's sake will be taken from the EHscans translation found here, although the text will most likely be added alongside the VIZ translation in favor of in replacement of it entirely, as i don't find too many of their translations regarding ipopte particularly egregious (as is unfortunately the case for many, many other characters in the series...)

as is customary for blogs like these, please don't hesitate to send an ask if you think i missed a panel or saw something that was mistagged :) or for any other miscellaneous reason!

other characters visible in panels are tagged (for the most part). some miscellaneous tags include:

#not ipopte : not a panel of ipopte; usually mod posts. this may be changed to something more fitting if i receive ipopte-related asks or decide to post other, ipopte-related ramblings

#mod fave : some of my personal favorite panels of him

#baby ipopte : the boy himself, in all his ugly duckling glory

#mukden : his time in the trench with kikuta

#sapporo disguise : his short-lived disguise for investigating sapporo

not quite sure where i got the misconception from that people were tagging him w/ ariko ipopte in favor of *just* ipopte but welll i just realized my error and it happened to be while i was tired out of my mind. I’ll be fixing the tags on everything in the morning

I don’t know why another one didn’t post today ❓but it’s a bit too late to fix that now or it’d bother me forever.
