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?!

It's an assassin showdown! Shishiba and Osaragi take on Yotsumura and his geisha on the streets of Kyoto. What happened between Shishiba and Yotsumura in the past to sour their strong mentor-disciple relationship? Meanwhile, chaos engulfs the JCC as the battle between Sakamoto and Kanaguri comes to a head!

Qué locura. Abre el tomo Osaragi de manera increíble, la sigue Shishiba y después el djskks Nagumo me deja sin palabras. Por algo es mi favorito 😌

Well that was anticlimactic, they just won? I hope so because we went back to a fight with characters I forgot about. Then a flashback? I don't know the characters are just there and not using names I read before. I need markers over all these characters so I know who is who - especially during flashbacks when they really don't look like they do "now".

Now onto the next town for a fight, wait no, they went back to the store where the store is doing great without assassin fights breaking out constantly, thank you very much. This part of the story was to brief but saved the volume from lower stars.

I am never going to forgive Kanaguri for killing Etsuko Satoda.
Death by thousand cuts for him!

will be honest, idk what volume the "reveal" was in but the "twist" on why the main villain (knock off gojo) is acting the way he is, is kinda stupid

โอซารางิ โอซารางิ โอซารางิ ♡

เรื่องย่อ: ชิชิบะ VS โยสึมุระ, โอซารางิ VS เกงิ ห้ำหั่นกันอย่างดุเดือด จนเมืองเกียวโตย้อมไปด้วยหยดเลือดสาดกระเซ็น!! อดีตอันน่าตื่นตะลึงระหว่างโยสึมุระและชิชิบะที่เคยเกี่ยวข้องเป็นศิษย์อาจารย์กันคืออะไรกัน่...!? ในขณะเดียวกันที่ JCC ซึ่งกำลังอยู่ในความวุ่นวาย ศึกระหว่างซาคาโมโตะกับคานางุริก็กำลังดำเนินมาสู่ฉากสุดท้ายแล้ว!!

เมนน้องโอซารางิปาใจใส่เล่มนี้รัวๆ ฉากบู๊น้องเท่มาก ซีนตอนหน้านิ่งๆคือใจเหลวไม่ไหว พอปิดจ๊อบก็ยังมีมุมน่ารักเหมือนเคย แถมมาด้วยบ่นหิวดังโงะอีก

ส่วนเรื่องระหว่างชิชิบะกับโยสึมุระนับได้ว่ามีรายละเอียดเยอะกว่าที่คิด ปูมหลังของโยสึมุระขมปี๋ หวังว่าในอนาคต ไม่ว่าจะเกิดอะไรขึ้นขอให้โยสึมุระมีตอนจบที่สวยงามเหมือนจิตใจที่ดีของเขาเอง

มาที่ฉากของซาโคโมโตะกับคานางุริก็ห้ำหั่นไม่แพ้กัน ไม่มีใครยอมใคร ส่วนคานางุริเป็นคู่ต่อสู้ที่ละสายตาไม่ได้ เพราะตายยากมาก ถึงมีชุดความคิดที่แปลกประหลาดออกไปอยู่บ้าง แต่ฝีมือการต่อสู้ก็นับว่าโหดไม่หยอก แต่ฉากนี้รู้สึกขัดใจอากิระอยู่ไม่น้อย ถึงแบบนั้นก็พอเข้าใจจุดประสงค์ของอากิระที่ตัดสินใจทำแบบนั้นลงไป

สนุกเหมือนเดิม คอยติดตามอยู่ตลอดว่าจะออกเล่มใหม่ตอนไหน ไม่เคยเบื่อ เล่าเรื่องดี พล็อตน่าติดตาม

Sakamoto Days is a very fun manga series which is a mix of John Wick-esque actions movies and slice of life comedy. I love how it turns the TV dad trope on it's head with its way over competent main character Taro Sakamoto. As the series continues it tends to get away from the slice of life comedy of the first volumes and focuses more on the action movie inspired content with it's much larger cast of characters and more complex plot.

The JCC Arc finally ends. Pretty much the peak of the manga at this point, as it feels like it's the most Suzuki-sensei has gone toward making a "real" story. Not that the story-less action in previous chapters / arcs is really "bad" by any means, just that I'm glad there's more going on beyond just People Fight.

Wow this vol was so good! Also what a horrible way to end this volume 😒 esp considering I have to wait till sep 3 for the next volume

This will never happen but it would be so cool to see suzuki adapt Jade city in manga form! I think his art style would work so well with the fight scenes of Jade city.

I really feel like I have lost the plot on this one. I still like it but I feel like I almost need to go back to the beginning before the last one comes out. So many shifting alliances and since every character is an assassin I feel like they are lying a lot of the time.

I like how they put a recap at the front of each volume at least.

In this volume, we finally get some answers about what really happened with Amane's family. This builds out the story of the JAA as well. I appreciate the character growth and development that has been a part of each volume as the story progresses. It's clear the mangaka has a strong overarching story that we continue to build toward.

There were a lot of intense moments in this installment as the arc came to a close. It pulled out the classic shonen trope of "messed up childhoods make great drama." From there, the reader learns a bit more about X and then its finally time to get back to the shop and check-in on everyone.
