Convince someone to start reading Sakamoto Days by sharing your favorite panel [SPOILERS]

Sakamoto can access that form whenever he exhausts too many calories. I get why you would be confused lol. That's what he should look like since he's like 27 lol.

twist of the century
I thought the dude was an old man lmao

That's what gaining weight does to ya I also initially thought he's at least in his 40's, as he is "an accomplished assassin, unrivalled and so on", especially since in manga quite often the characters are older than they look. But 27, oooh boi

I do want to look into this but knowing me I'll dive real deep into it
Not a good time considering how busy next week is for me
But consider me interested fellas

I'm not that far into my reread(stopped around 40 the first time and barely remember shit), but lots of panels look really sick

Do the later arcs have the same comedic vibes as the earlier ones?

Next Sunday on the 5th
I think I might be ready by then

There is still some comedic tones but its 100% got more serious later on

what's the plot..??

this one got me intrigued.

I think this one works. Tho it's just the basic one. You'll see when/if you check it out.

Taro Sakamoto was considered the greatest hitman of all time. Feared by many, he stood at the top of the underground world until he met and fell in love with a woman. As a result, Sakamoto abandoned his life of crime and now works as a convenience store clerk.

Leaving his shady past behind proves more difficult than Sakamoto initially imagined. Many of his former rivals and partners do not believe that he has truly left the business and show up in hopes of taking him out. Barred from killing, Sakamoto must find creative ways to subdue his enemies and prevent them from bringing harm to his family, his store, and the small town he resides in.

Sakamoto used to be a top assassin, but he retired when he fell in love and started a family. Now he owns a neighborhood store. Characters from his past and new characters show up and he finds himself being dragged back into the assassin world.

I thought it was lame too at first, especially bc people kept describing it as John Wick and I don't really like John Wick... It's definitely worth a shot. It has a lot of absurdity and violence without seeming like it's trying to be edgy. It's pretty wholesome tbh and has a lot of "found family" trope.

 

[Dark Admiral]

lol, so watered down John Wick. Will check it out soon.

lol, so watered down John Wick. Will check it out soon.

I'd add that is has some elements from One Punch Man as well, like the type of comedy and gags it employs along with great fights. It's just that the paneling and coreography of fights here is on another level, minus the crazy powers from OPM.

I cant convince you with a single panel because the context and how the story unfolded makes it a great manga. Lots of mangas have cool and badass panels these days, but they mean nothing if the storytelling sucks.

P.S. I have binge read spyxfamily. It started really strong and I liked the first chapters. The art is awesome. But it started to get stale at some point and I am not a fan of Anya's school and classmate related plot/panels.

 

[Chrono]

theres this cool looking character I saw a while back , dont know his name
but it peaked my interest.

How'd he look ?

 

[LANJI CUCKSMOKE]

My biggest issue with SpyXFamily would be bi-weekly releases, plus Anya seems to be the main character anyways, and I kinda dig how she gets shit done despite being silly and misunderstanding a lot. Also since we just had Anya - centered arc, we will most likely have an arc focused on Yor and Melissa.
