Hi everyone! I caught up a few weeks ago and really like this series! My favs are Osaragi, Nagumo, Shishiba, Papa Takamura, Sakamoto, Natsuki, and Akira. I thought Shin was kind of boring, personality-wise, but he's growing on me. I also like Heisuke and Lu-- I just hope they stay relevant since Saka adds every new character to the family haha.

Questions:
  1. What is Gaku's power? Is it just super strength? Like he punches holes in people so do you think he's a modified human? And why is he so worried about the bathroom? :suresure:
  2. Why didn't Sakamoto use a fake name when they went to JCC?
  3. Is Kashima a furry? Y/N
What I like about this series is the mix of humor and cool assassin battles, but it still feels almost wholesome. The meta-jokes with Toramaru and her "fandom" cracked me up-- I think the current arc is my favorite so far.

Nice list of favs. I hope Natsuki, Mafuyu and Akira join the store. Maybe turn it into a supermarket lol. That way all these kids can be his employees. Shin would probably be Assistant Manager as well lol.

As for the questions...

1.) I think like all the other elite assassins, Gaku has superhuman stats with his own unique weapon. As weve seen him use before.....his weapon of choice was a giant warhammer with a lazer device installed. But of course Takamura sliced it up. So im assuming he's just gonna get a new hammer.

2.) Yh the start of the whole JCC plot was kinda kooky. I was confused on why Sakamoto didnt use a fake name, since he does look physically different now. Idk how he even got into the exams.

3.) Probably....he does love animals.

Yh I think Sakamoto Days is a highly intelligent show setting aside it's amazing action scenes. It's commentary on the assassin world, it's world building, it's character development, etc. It's just really special tbh. I just hope the author can keep it up....but im not gonna keep my hopes up too high lol.

Another reader for the tag list:finally:

For your questions:
- We know fuck all. /s

Jk, but also it was semi-serious lol

From what we know so far Gaku just has super strength.
I'm going blank on the bathroom scene tbh. Is it when they enter the JAA? I think it might have been just a gag.

And as far as we know Kashima isn't a furry but he does always wear a dear head over his own head so there's that.

I suppose @Chrono will also give an answer but I'm writing the comment so idk if he posted anything yet lol

Anyway, good to have you and welcome to the Sakamoto Store:cheers:

I think a good thread question we can have is the remaining Order members designs and abilities. Maybe also the Boss of the Order as well.


My opinion:-

-Remaining Order Member 1:-
-Male
-Early 20s
-Black Hair
-Irresponsible
-Uses a Giant Weapon

-Remaining Order Member 1:-
-Female
-Late 20s
-Blonde Hair
-Strict and highly intelligent
-Uses guns or knives

-Order Boss
-Male
-Mid 40s
-Red or Black Hair
-Serious and seen as scary, but not
-Mid sized weapon
-Strongest in the Order bar Takamura...who he respects.

Great question
I'll brainstorm something and post my opinion for sure

I agree! Turn the store into a supermarket and hire all the foundlings there. I really like how forgiving and understanding Sakamoto is. I was kind of surprised when he took in Apart after all the fucked up ideas he spouted.

About Gaku, I'm torn between thinking he's just a regular guy with super skills or a modified human. He's into tech and he doesn't mind being Kashima's sewing project...

The start of this arc was weird. I don't think the part with Aoi finding the flyer in the trash even needed to be there-- why not just have the others discover that the exams were happening? They were already discussing it and Aoi just came out of nowhere. She and Hana are definitely weak points in the story. There's just not a lot of flavor there. It would be cool if one of them gets to go on missions at some point and have some growth.

Thanks! Brutal honestly, lol. I suppose you can't answer my burning question about whether Osaragi's saw is gas, electric, or battery powered, either?!?1

Yeah, when they entered the JAA, Slur told him the bathrooms were on every other floor, and then he had to use the bathroom after he took out the first bunch of people. It might just be a gag. But what if he's some kind of cyborg?
 
It's Pochita's cousin (Pochita is the Chainsaw devil from Chainsaw man btw, in case you don't read it:shame:)
I know who Pochita is!

But I dropped CSM bc it wasn't for me. Cool art, though!
I took about a year and a half break from everything but OP bc I bought a house that needs a million repairs and am just now getting caught back up on WSJ. Sakamoto Days and Spy Family have been my favorite "new" series so far. They're similar in the combination of humor, absurdity, and cool assassin shit.

Congrats on the house!:cheers:

Eh, CSM is more of a habit for me nowdays. I wouldn't call myself a fan of it.

And yeah, Sakamoto and Spy Family are very similar lol, that's why I hope the eventual Sakamoto anime will be as big of a hit as Spy Family is

Aoi in general is a weird person. I mean she literally threw herself off a building to teach Sakamoto about morality. I do believe she has had a positive impact on him. But her methods are really sus. Probably why Sakamoto may start having a messed sense of morality. Example:- Letting Apart off the hook and allowing him to join lmao. I think the author could do a plotline with Aoi actually being a messed up person. But then again I feel like it would just make the plot convoluted lol. Idk I like how Aoi and Hana are as of now. Not completely in the story...but defintely outta the way.

Idk Gaku seems normal to me lol (in SD standards). Though he is pretty young, him being an enhanced soldier could explain why he is strong. But then again so is Osaragi (presumbly) and Prime Sakamoto....who was like 22 and Order lvl+?

As for being Kashima's sewing project....I dont think he had much of a choice lmao.
