What awaited Sugimoto, who stepped into Hokkaido’s Gold Rush with dreams of making a fortune, was a tattoo map leading to a hidden treasure based on hints inscribed on the bodies of convicts in Abashiri Prison?! The magnificent nature of Hokkaido vs vicious convicts and the meeting with a pure Ainu girl, Ashiripa!! A survival battle for a hidden treasure hunt begins!</p></blockquote>
<p> ;</p>
<p>Message from Chikahiro Kobayashi (who plays Saichi Sugimoto):</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The third season is finally coming! It&#8217;s been almost two years since the last season&#8230; And I can&#8217;t wait any more! The four who go on a new stage, &#8220;Karafuto,&#8221; the four who are chasing them&#8230; and very unique people whom they meet there. I&#8217;m already looking forward to everything! There are too many scenes I want to see. I wonder who will play that role? I wonder what that scene will look like? Where&#8217;s the gold? What about the prisoners? What is their past? What about the language! As a huge an of the series, I can&#8217;t stop being excited about it! Let&#8217;s enjoy this show together when it airs&#8230;! Banya☆&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p> ;</p>
<p>Message from Haruka Shiraishi (who plays Asirpa):</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Asirpa is separated from Sugimoto who has been traveling with so far. Even though she is anxious, she keep trusting him and moves forward&#8230; I have put all of my energy into playing Asirpa&#8217;s emotional conflict and struggles, and sometimes her strange face, illustrated in the third season. The recordings are done separately now, and I haven&#8217;t seen any other recordings except for the scene where Asirpa appears. And as a fan of the series, I can&#8217;t wait for it to air, wondering &#8216;What happened to that scene!.&#8217; Let&#8217;s continue our journey together in the third season!&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h3 style="text-align: center">Earwig and the Witch</h3>
<p>We&#8217;ve <a href="https://natalie.mu/comic/news/383967" target="_blank">finally got a look</a> at Studio Ghibli&#8217;s upcoming 3DCG Anime Film &#8216;Earwig and the Witch&#8217; by way of some newly released images showing off the character designs. To those unaware, Earwig and the Witch is an adaption of the book of the same name by Diana Wynne Jones.</p>
<p>The film is directed by Studio Ghibli&#8217;s Goro Miyazaki, who also worked on From Up on Poppy Hill. The film was also recently selected to be part of the 2020 Cannes Film Festival.</p>
<p>Director Goro Miyazaki said this regarding the film:</p>
<blockquote><p>“Nowadays, in our country, there are many adults and only a few children. It must be tough for these children, with so few of them having to deal with so many adults. It was while I was thinking about this that I got to know Earwig. And I realized, ’That’s it! ‘How does Earwig deal with the annoying adults? Please watch Earwig And The Witch to find out. She may be cheeky, but I sincerely hope that our adorable Earwig will encourage children and cheer up adults.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Earwig and the Witch is slated to release this winter on NHK-G.</p>
