Once a feared figure in the Japanese underworld, Taro Sakamoto (Tomokazu Sugita) in the present operates a family-owned convenience store in a quiet part of Tokyo. After getting married and becoming a father, Sakamoto is unrecognisable from his days as a bachelor assassin, having gained an estimated 70kg in excess weight.
Based on Yuto Suzuki’s manga series, Sakamoto Days bears a lot of similarities with other fictional works, especially recent ones such as the films Nobody and John Wick. What sets the animation apart is the Japanese eccentricities common in manga and anime, along with the story’s heavy emphasis on the family unit.
The series’ action and art style are also commendable, with the latter being more stylistic than adhering to more typical Japanese animation. For a better idea of what this means, think of how different Studio Ghibli films look compared to say, Dragon Ball.
The few scenes they share together, such as the flashback of Aoi giving Sakamoto an ultimatum to stop killing by threatening to jump off a building to show him the value of life, are great, but few and far in between.
Sakamoto Days is streaming on Netflix.
