Based on the manga by Yuto Suzuki, Masaki Watanabe (Bartender) directs Sakamoto Days at studio TMS Entertainment, with series composition by Taku Kishimoto (BLUE LOCK), character designs by Yo Moriyama (MEGALOBOX director) and music by Yuki Hayashi (My Hero Academia).
VIZ Media publishes an official English version of the manga and describes the story:
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!
