Fans of the action-comedy juggernaut Sakamoto Days are receiving an unexpected visual refresh. As anticipation builds for the continuation of the anime adaptation, production studio TMS Entertainment has unveiled new promotional artwork that showcases a refined character design style ahead of the series' upcoming Season 2 premiere on Netflix.
Based on the popular manga serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump, the franchise follows Taro Sakamoto, a legendary former hitman who chooses a quiet life running a convenience store after falling in love. The series masterfully balances high-octane martial arts choreography with deadpan humor, making its transition to animation one of the most talked-about events in modern shonen fandom.
With TMS Entertainment steering the production, expectations remain high for how the studio will adapt the next major narrative arcs. The updated visual design hints at tighter animation fidelity and a sharper aesthetic as Taro Sakamoto and his eclectic crew face down an ever-growing roster of dangerous assassins.
