“A legendary hitman-turned-shopkeeper!” Netflix has revealed a fun first look teaser for a Japanese anime series called Sakamoto Days, arriving for streaming worldwide starting in January 2025. This is based on the already beloved manga of the same name, and is produced by TMS Entertainment & manga publisher Shueisha in Japan, with Masaki Watanabe (of “Battle Spirits”) directing. Legendary ex-hitman Sakamoto bands with comrades to face off against the looming threat of assassins to secure a peaceful life with his beloved family in this long-awaited anime adaptation.

Barred from killing, Sakamoto must find creative ways to subdue his enemies and prevent them from bringing harm to his family, his store, and the small town he resides in. This stars Tomokazu Sugita as the voice of Taro Sakamoto, along with Nao Tôyama, Ayane Sakura, Nobunaga Shimazaki, Hina Kino, and Miyari Nemoto.
