SAKAMOTO DAYS
Synopsis
The story
When Sakamoto meets Aoi, the convenience store clerk, it’s love at first sight — and just like that, he retires. Sakamoto gets married, has a daughter, opens a mom-and-pop store in a quiet town, and completely transforms … into a plus-size man. To ensure a peaceful life with his beloved family, the legendary ex–hit man bands together with comrades to face off against the looming threat of assassins. Note: The series streamed a week in advance on Netflix Japan starting with episode 2 released alongside episode 1.

An entertaining shounen formula with a street-level twist that packs a punch!

He who was once feared by all now fears no one but his wife.

Low budget adaptation that feels like it could've been much more

Won't take over the anime world, but still off to a good start!
