Summary

Kill some time with former hit man Taro Sakamoto！

Taro Sakamoto was once a legendary hit man considered the greatest of all time。 Bad guys feared him！ Assassins revered him！ But then one day he quit， got married， and had a baby。 He’s now living the quiet life as the owner of a neighborhood store， but how long can Sakamoto enjoy his days of retirement before his past catches up to him？！

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 then 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！

I have been following this manga since it was being published chapter by chapter in Shonen Jump， needless to say， I am ecstatic for it to be getting a proper paperback collection。 Sakamoto used to be the greatest hitman in the world， but he has since then retired and settled down with his wife。 When it’s discovered that Sakamoto is alive a bounty is placed on his head and every hitman in Japan is after him。 This is a fantastic found family story， full of laughs， tension， and gorgeously illustrat I have been following this manga since it was being published chapter by chapter in Shonen Jump， needless to say， I am ecstatic for it to be getting a proper paperback collection。 Sakamoto used to be the greatest hitman in the world， but he has since then retired and settled down with his wife。 When it’s discovered that Sakamoto is alive a bounty is placed on his head and every hitman in Japan is after him。 This is a fantastic found family story， full of laughs， tension， and gorgeously illustrated action。 This slice of life is perfect for anyone who enjoyed John Wick or is just looking for something light but entertaining。 。。。more

Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to read a digital copy of this book in exchange for a review。 All opinions are my own。I dunno if hitman comedy is just popular right now， but I'm here for it！ This manga is about an ex-hitman who used to be the cream of the crop before retiring to settle down and start a family。 He now runs a small market store and is heavier than he used to be。 This doesn't mean he can't still kick some butt， which is useful because every hitman around seems to be out for his Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to read a digital copy of this book in exchange for a review。 All opinions are my own。I dunno if hitman comedy is just popular right now， but I'm here for it！ This manga is about an ex-hitman who used to be the cream of the crop before retiring to settle down and start a family。 He now runs a small market store and is heavier than he used to be。 This doesn't mean he can't still kick some butt， which is useful because every hitman around seems to be out for his head。 This story is a really good mix of silliness and action。 I'm looking forward to reading the next volume！ 。。。more

Thanks to Netgalley for providing a free copy in exchange for an honest review。Yes！I loved this series。 I wasn’t sure what to expect going into it， and I was delightfully surprised。 It’s full of action and humour， while also being fast paced and entertaining。It reminds me of The Way of the House Husband， with an ex-yakuza member becoming a househusband， but with Sakamoto Days there’s more of a story arc and has more action scenes while WOFTHH relies on visual humour。 The art style， while not the Thanks to Netgalley for providing a free copy in exchange for an honest review。Yes！I loved this series。 I wasn’t sure what to expect going into it， and I was delightfully surprised。 It’s full of action and humour， while also being fast paced and entertaining。It reminds me of The Way of the House Husband， with an ex-yakuza member becoming a househusband， but with Sakamoto Days there’s more of a story arc and has more action scenes while WOFTHH relies on visual humour。 The art style， while not the most refined， is still great， especially with Sakamoto who doesn’t have a wide range of facial expressions， but can emit murderous intention or just chilling。 He’s so funny。I highly recommend this if you’re a fan of The Way of the House Husband， but want more of a storyline with the concept。 。。。more

This was a fun read。 Surprisingly wholesome when you consider that it's a story about a hitman whose past comes back to confront him。 With bullets and knives。 Mr。 Sakamoto is a retired hitman who now has a family and a small shop。 He's gotten fat and does not look like someone who would be able to fight – but he will to protect his new life。 This was a fun read。 Surprisingly wholesome when you consider that it's a story about a hitman whose past comes back to confront him。 With bullets and knives。 Mr。 Sakamoto is a retired hitman who now has a family and a small shop。 He's gotten fat and does not look like someone who would be able to fight – but he will to protect his new life。 。。。more

Don't let the art cover fool you， this is currently one of the best manga I've read so far。 Fast paced action mixed with comedy。 Don't let the art cover fool you， this is currently one of the best manga I've read so far。 Fast paced action mixed with comedy。 。。。more

The drawings。。。。 weren't exceptional。 The set up was almost on par with The Way of the Househusband， Vol。 1， particularly how more people were added to Sakamoto's "family"。 What I did like was how caring for other people led to the heroes and （lone） heroine to become stronger。Otherwise， it's a pretty fun and rather silly read of a former assassin， who's still at the top of his game， despite his size being used as a gag。 The drawings。。。。 weren't exceptional。 The set up was almost on par with The Way of the Househusband， Vol。 1， particularly how more people were added to Sakamoto's "family"。 What I did like was how caring for other people led to the heroes and （lone） heroine to become stronger。Otherwise， it's a pretty fun and rather silly read of a former assassin， who's still at the top of his game， despite his size being used as a gag。 。。。more

A retired assassin turned family man sounds vaguely familiar to another beloved title， but this is Sakamoto Days！ Taro Sakamoto has left the life of being an assassin in the past and turned to being a full-time family man and working a full-time job making his bounty an easy one – or is it？ This action-comedy shouldn’t fool you though！I wish I could say， this manga was like Demon Slayer in the terms of Sakamoto hearing the somber stories of assassins trying to kill him and failing， but he has sw A retired assassin turned family man sounds vaguely familiar to another beloved title， but this is Sakamoto Days！ Taro Sakamoto has left the life of being an assassin in the past and turned to being a full-time family man and working a full-time job making his bounty an easy one – or is it？ This action-comedy shouldn’t fool you though！I wish I could say， this manga was like Demon Slayer in the terms of Sakamoto hearing the somber stories of assassins trying to kill him and failing， but he has sworn off of killing anyone。 Just because he gained a few pounds doesn’t mean he can’t run those hands！ Being reacquainted with his former telepathic partner definitely helps him stay out of a lot of trouble from the hitmen and his wife。Read more of my review here！: https://religiouslynerdy。com/2021/06/。。。 。。。more

3 stars *may change there’s just something so endearing about a really tough killer guy who gives it up for a wife and kid

I LOVED IT， I WANT MOREHe is such a baddass

Grace Worland ，

So so good。 I absolutely love it！Reminds me of One punch man and Way of the househusband。 So give this a shot if you like either of those

Phil ，

Not a greatest manga ever contender but a great premise well executed。 I particularly like the mixing of genres as you are never certain if you will get joke or action， but you are always satisfied。

Jose Granados ，

** Leído de Mangaplus en su versión en Español** Este Primer número de este titulo me parecio super gracioso lo que plantea tan ironico e irrisorio ， me hizo pasar un buen rato y con ganas de leer el siguente numero。 es recomendable para su lectura

Sakamoto is one of the better new additions to Shonen Jump。 Competently written humor with a good deal of exciting action （Chapter 7 in particular ending with the coolest fight setup I've seen in a while） and a cast of some very likeable characters。 Sure some of the plot points are a bit zany and over the top for the more grounded setting of the series， namely one character that's a telepath， I think the goofiness fits the tone just fine。 Very reminiscent of Gintama。 I'm excited to keep reading！ Sakamoto is one of the better new additions to Shonen Jump。 Competently written humor with a good deal of exciting action （Chapter 7 in particular ending with the coolest fight setup I've seen in a while） and a cast of some very likeable characters。 Sure some of the plot points are a bit zany and over the top for the more grounded setting of the series， namely one character that's a telepath， I think the goofiness fits the tone just fine。 Very reminiscent of Gintama。 I'm excited to keep reading！ 。。。more
