Action-packed Manga Turns to Anime
If you’re a manga fan, you’re no stranger to the exciting world of Sakamoto Days. This amazing series began captivating readers back in November 2020. It’s got a cool plot about the best hitman living a pretty normal life. Thanks to its booming popularity, an anime adaptation is on track for a big launch in January 2025.
Sakamoto Days Tastes Life in Action
Now, a little sneak peek into a possible live-action style of Sakamoto Days has hit YouTube. The short film was dropped by SHONEN JUMP CHANNEL OFFICIAL and sent fans into a frenzy! The film gives us a scene where a school girl walks into a shop and finds herself in an intense fight with a masked stranger. The action sequences are fantastic, and the movie ends with a show-and-tell of Sakamoto Days Volume 1.
Soon after the live-action taste was dropped, fans started buzzing about a potential Netflix series. How cool would that be? Netflix already has plans to release the anime series, and this short film has done nothing but crank up the hype for that release.
The Internet Responds to the Viral Video
Boy, did this film make a splash after its YouTube release on August 1, 2024! It pulled in over 174,000 views in just a few days! Fans were stoked about how accurately the film showed the manga. And man, did they show their love in the comments! All this love thrown at the video just makes everyone more pumped for the upcoming anime series.
Fan Chatter
Fans could barely contain their excitement. They compared high school girls to Sakamoto Days’ characters and speculated about some pretty deep theories. One fan, amazed by Saiori Izawa’s actions, admired her strength and skill. This sneak peek has manga fans around the world glued to their screens, eagerly waiting for the official anime release.
What’s Next for Sakamoto Days?
With all the love showered on the short video, it’s pretty clear how much fans are looking forward to a Sakamoto Days live series. Yeah, the short clip didn’t have Taro Sakamoto or Shin Asakura – the main characters – in it. But, a series without them? It just wouldn’t be Sakamoto Days.
So, we’re sitting here, fingers crossed, waiting for them to join the live action series. This would be like the perfect gift for fans! The creator of Sakamoto Days, Yuto Suzuki, must be pretty proud right now. Heck, who wouldn’t be? The series success might even tempt Netflix into launching a full-fledged live-action series. Trust me, nothing would be more exciting for fans!
While fans eagerly wait for the anime’s official release, and dare we dream, a live-action Netflix series, there’s only one thing left to do – experience the thrill of Sakamoto Days for yourself. Want to dive into the manga by yourself? Find it on Viz Media. But the question still lingers, are we going to see a Netflix live-action series soon? Only time holds the answer.
