IntroductionWhat it comes to action thriller genre, there are 3 certain elements that needs to be specified and classified as usual that are dark themes, twists and most importantly, the fights. These aspects can indicate the challenges and undoubtedly sophistical to carry on the narrative but Sakamoto Days on the other hand is the exact opposite. What I meant is that it’s not dumbfounded or anything, it’s basically your slice of life story that is quite wacky and whimsical of an adventure awaits upon the narrative that in particular, fits the tone of the story.
StoryTaro Sakamoto is hence, the greatest hitman of all time that is known for its manpower which gives him a priority to kill as an one true assassin but since it may get old and exceptional above his time, he decided to retire and be the father on what he wanted for just to be an ordinary guy on what has changed for the assassin world just by getting a wife that feels pleasant and refreshing to make a store on what he adores for.

Ever since he met new characters who assist him like Shin and Heisuke, everything changed for an horrific turn for the civilization that is when the organization named Slur/X decided to take discrimination and leadership for Japan. Once the storyline gets even more further, it has sense of great worldbuilding and encapsulates the perception and sheer agony that have amount of discovery, deception and growth around the events that feels immense, complex and sufficient.

Characters
For example, Nagumo may be a nonchalant character who feel childish and diligent at times but has an opportunity to humiliate others on just how overwhelming and powerful as he’s the best friend of the mc. The cast on the series who are kind yet peculiar within the spectrum of humility and morality can strategize their actions that is more severe and pity within their vision that gives the shivers and invested of their traits and features. They all have different capabilities to exterminate and observe the limitations that are extraordinary and creative around them that felt out of this world.
Highlight of the series
What makes the series vivid and eccentric that is the choreography which is commonly suitable and heavily focused on the plot that it felt similar to any shows nor comic books that you’ve might had experience before.
The way the characters portray can be easy to be known for to navigate their true potential on one conflict to another and how is it done is simple, be spontaneous and unpredictable. To be more specific, the dynamics that are explicable and quote on quote, versatile within the panels that builds up the momentum of absurdity that is quite unconventional yet hysterical of a show is what makes up the viewer’s attention more exciting and intense.
Pros and Cons
Now the only problem I have is that, what about its certain aspects of the genre that truly needs to accomplish? It is an subjective opinion to the critics that felt uneasy on what it truly stands for about how simple yet entertaining that doesn’t give a huge role within the story since it may have too much characters and lacks in emotional depth of the plot but for me, the artistic and comically accurate elements that embodies the vibes of the characters that is known for its maturity and motivation that is not just accomplishment but to follow up your hopes and dreams to maintain identity on what you truly astound for.
Final thoughts
Overall, Sakamoto Days may be not perfect but it’s important to acknowledge on what we experience to diverse the elements that is creative, compelling and effortless within medium of art that you can enjoy that is slightly appealing and how simple of a story that can manage to be intensive and complex that you should definitely check it out.
