My Review of "SAKAMOTO DAYS Part 2"!
If you didn’t feel like part 1 was good enough, well, here’s the Sakamoto Days we deserved.
Since this is a sequel, I will skip the usual story and characters section and dive straight into The Good, The Bad, and The Downright Ugly.The Good
Wow. I was absolutely amazed at how many improvements were made to this continuation of Sakamoto Days. The animation, which people complained about in the first part (but I didn’t complain about), was clearly improved on. The action scenes were very entertaining, and had more impact than the first half of this season. The storyline continued to develop, which included my favorite section from the manga, the island exam. I don’t think there was a lot of filler, which made each episode a must watch for me. New characters were introduced, which each had their own quirks and funny moments. Some of them have also been given important roles for the story, which will be interesting to see, assuming a new season will be announced. The comedy was also still pretty good, with characters like Sakamoto himself and new guys like Kill Baby having their own funny scenes too. It really feels like Sakamoto Days' aesthetic is finally coming together, with this section feeling way more Sakamoto than before. I need to mention how awesome the OP and ED were for this season. They definitely felt way more fitting for the Sakamoto aesthetic and are pretty catchy themselves. Overall, Sakamoto Days Part 2 is so much better than its previous part.
The Bad
I can’t complain too much with this section because of how much I liked it, but to be nitpicky, I did think the first half of the season with the serial killers was a bit underwhelming. I think I just expected it to have a bit more impact, but it kinda was just there. Not saying that it wasn’t entertaining though. It was still a fun section to watch, just not as fun as the rest of the anime.

Ain’t nothing downright ugly about this part 2 anime.
Is It Worth The Watch?
This part is absolutely worth the watch. This part truly encapsulates the fun and chaotic nature of Sakamoto Days that part 1 did lack a bit. The animation has clearly improved, and the aesthetics not just from the execution but also to things such as the OP and ED tracks feels way more like a Sakamoto Days anime. This was an amazing watch and I can’t wait for season 2 to be announced.
Thank you for taking the time to read my review. I hope this helped you with your decision on whether to watch this anime or not! If you already have watched it, I hope that you can agree with me with some of the points I made. If you enjoyed this review, I would greatly appreciate a follow too! ^^
