Ahead of its premiere on Netflix this Saturday, a trailer and promotional images have arrived online for the upcoming anime series Sakamoto Days.
Adapted from Yuto Suzuki’s hit manga, Sakamoto Days follows Taro, a once unrivalled hitman who retired when he fell in love, but when his dark past catches up with him he is forced to do what it takes to protect his family with the help of a young employee from his convenience store.
Taro Sakamoto used to be an unrivaled hitman, earning legendary status in the underworld. But one day, the unthinkable happened. Sakamoto fell in love. He started dating, retired, got married, and had a kid, growing overweight as a result. Though now working as a humble convenience store owner, the world of hitmen still follows him. Sakamoto, along with Shin, a young man with telepathy and an employee at his small store, will protect his humble life and family, or die trying.
The series features the voice talents of Tomokazu Sugita (Taro Sakamoto), Nobunaga Shimazaki (Shin Asakura), Ayane Sakura (Lu Shaotang), Nao Toyama (Aoi Sakamoto), Hina Kino (Hana Sakamoto), Ryota Suzuki (Heisuke Mashimo), Natsuki Hanae (Nagumo), Taku Yashiro (Shishiba), and Saori Hayami (Osaragi).
Sakamoto Days premieres on Netflix on January 11th.
