What is Sakamoto Days about?
Sakamoto Days is based on the action comedy manga series by Yuto Suzuki. The series has been serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine since November 2020, and as of January 2025, 20 tankōbon volumes have been published.
VIZ Media, the official English publisher of the manga, shared a description for Sakamoto Days:
Time has passed peacefully for Sakamoto since he left the underworld. He’s running a neighborhood store with his lovely wife and child and has gotten a bit…out of shape. But one day a figure from his past pays him a visit with an offer he can’t refuse: return to the assassin world or die!
The first Sakamoto Days game was previously announced for a Spring 2025 launch. It's a mobile game titled SAKAMOTO DAYS: Dangerous Puzzle.
