I'm really confused now. How can Superior Private Ogata give orders to Corporal Nikaidou? Corporal is two ranks above Superior Private.
Besides, Nikaidou is always calling him "sir". Am I missing something here? Maybe Nikaidou is Ogata's bitch, pure and simple?

Well they always treated the Ainu like poo poo so speaking broken Ainu wouldn't be a big deal I guess.

I wonder how common horseriding was between the Ainu. Kiroranke is an Ainu from the Amur River region in mainland Asia and as far as I'm concerned the native peoples there aren't frequent horseriders. Though the Mongols invaded that region plus Sakhalin and clashed with the Ainu in the 13th century, so who knows...

As a random aside does anyone else know of any good manga that do gore as well as this does?

I'd say Gantz has a satisfactory amount of gore, at least for me.

So I though Asirpa's dad was an Amur Valley Ainu? What is he? Russian? Tungusic? I'm confused now...

(Gonna drop the spoiler tags since I'm just speculating) I think he's from an Amur Valley ethnic group that is similar to the Ainu but not the same. Kiroranke mentions that they lived a lifestyle "not so different from the Ainu," but Asirpa's dad seemed to need to learn about the Ainu culture from his wife so I don't think they were actually Ainu. The manga leaves the details of what ethnic group he's from pretty vague aside from the fact that it was in the Amur River area. I assume that's because either A) it's some sort of revelation later or B) Noda just sort of made up a group for plot purposes that vaguely fits the time and place but doesn't directly correspond to any historical group.

In this case it would make sense he's a Nivkh then. They have some similar customs like bear sacrifice, a little bit of intermarriage and they also live by the mouth of the Amur river and Sakhalin (I'm a bit of a sperg with Siberian and Manchurian ethnic groups in case y'all didn't notice).

Either this, or Orok/Uilta.

I understand the translation intends to be as accurate and informative as possible but I think it's funny to see an Ainu man calling that kind of tree a "Manchurian elm tree" and not just "elm tree".

Although, as an Amur Basin Ainu, he pretty much is from Manchuria, apparently.

I think that's just...makeup? Lip tattoos are only for married women as far as I know.

By the way, I LOVE how much time in their hands those Japanese 3D modelers seem to have.
