EPISODE REVIEWS

Nagumo's introduction flips the power dynamic completely. Watching Sakamoto genuinely struggle against someone faster is thrilling. The lip-reading gag is hilarious but the underlying tension never drops. Sakamoto Days proves it can be serious too.

There is actually a greater danger out there and it is not just the hitmen that are after Taro.We get a more understanding of the organization that Taro and Shin used to work for which then brings more understanding to the series.

This episode feels more like a reunion vibe than a grudge. Huge salute to the antagonists’ character developments, so wholesome. The real deal is about to start. The classic animation quality is consistent, especially during the fighting scenes. pure hard-boiled energy!
