Sakamoto Days is a new anime entertaining viewers from early 2025. Shonen depicts the adventures of a retired assassin who now leads a family life alongside his wife and daughter, running their grocery store. Sakamoto's past, however, does not let up, but today the inconspicuous-looking former assassin is not about to let anyone disturb his family's peaceful life. So he reaches for the arsenal of his old skills to prevent anyone from destroying what he has built over the past years.

This series, which perfectly combines humor and action, first won the hearts of manga fans, and is now attracting the interest of anime fans. Only one episode has been released so far, but it was enough to encourage a group of viewers to continue watching the series.

The first episode of Sakamoto Days was an introduction to Sakamoto's history. So it showed viewers a slice of the main character's former life, and why he abandoned it – we got a glimpse of how he met his wife and married her. The premiere episode also introduced another main character – Shin Asakura, an assassin who worked with Sakamoto in the past, and years later comes to kill Taro Sakamoto on behalf of their organization. The episode ends, however, with Sakamoto and Shin getting rid of the person that told Shin to kill Sakamoto and Shin, after discovering that life has more to offer than he thought, starts working at Sakamoto's store.
