Decided to genderbend Akie for funsies 😳!! Since I’m trying to stick as close as I can to historical/canon accuracy for a Golden Kamuy fan oc, there’s a lot more opportunities for Akio in the plot! Also an excuse to draw uniforms heuehehehhe

Most of Akie’s lore translates over very well, the main difference being that this version allows him to join the 7th Division instead of being an outsider in the whole gold hunt!
Lt. Tsurumi is still the reason his father died in the war and it’s sooo much fun for Akio to be cluelessly working directly under him too lol
