I, too, would risk it all for the pink-haired fortune teller named after a gaming console. 🩷

read up to chapter 199

I’ve been WAITING for shin to break this whole time but god it hurt me so bad 😭 and man learning about how sakamoto and shin met is so exciting, he really was his first child. they make me sick

Muy divertido y entretenido el comienzo de arco en la prisión, con Tenkyu (ay si no es rubio), cuyo estilo de combate me ha encantado. La breve aparición de Torres ha estado graciosa también.

So lit! I was a little worried about how this arc was gonna go after the first chapter or so, it seemed like it might be a little messy or meandering, but it got very fun quick! Was so hyped to see one of my boys back in the series after almost 20 volumes. Atari is fun and seems like she could become a great ally, with her abilities fitting the crazy and creative style of Sakamoto fights so well. It is really dope to see a Shin and Heisuke arc as well that is a great dynamic. My favorite part of this volume easily is Tenkyu though, a new favorite of mine and a character I can’t wait to see more of. I knew he was gonna be going crazy as soon as I saw him😭 how he was moving at the end there (not to mention right after his introduction) was so nuts I love it, this prison arc is looking like it is going to be breathing some awesome fresh characters into this story. The brief Sakamoto plot was excellent as well, definitely look forward to seeing how his training with Torres progresses

Shin is so frustratinggggggg (in a good way).

Also fortune teller girl is super cute and I hope she gets more character development than just the “damsel in distress” trope.

[Kieran Antoniuk-Davies · Rating 4 out of 5]

Almost a 5 star volume, shaking a bag of scrap metal and using luck powers to make a gun is an all timer Sakamoto moment

[Alejandro Orradre · Rating 5 out of 5]

Los combates siguen siendo la gran baza del manga: una inverosímil pero efectiva mezcla de espectacularidad y surrealismo que se hace muy entretenida.

[Olga · Rating 5 out of 5]

Oh my, another ongoing.
But!
I need next chapter

THIS PRISON ARC IS SO MUCH FUN. i love shin and heisuke just fucking around trying to get to the bottom to find my PINK HAIRED FOTUNE TELLING QUEEN. tenkyu is SUCH an interesting character and such a great person to have conflict with shin. SHIN THIS ARC FOR YOU BABY <3 <3 <3

Sakamoto Days gets something right about prison arcs most works of serialized fiction totally fail at. What generally happens in these segments of a story is:

— characters you want to see together are separated
— the imprisoned characters face a contrived difficulty they overcome in the same way, both internalizing some aspects of prison life while elevating one or two prisoners to heroic status
— the prison environment is visually uninteresting and the new characters in the prison are usually equally boring
— the plot slows down because of the separation

Why this example is so much better is it combines the training arc with prison arc, necessarily stalling the story for skill enhancement in a new environment. It also introduces interesting characters, a fascinating space, and benefits even further from the fact that the show generally separates its key characters anyway. This is just another variation on the usual Sakamoto Days plot structure and it works great.

7/10

Chapter 181: Ganging up on one little newbie? That ain't hard-boiled...

Chapter 181:

Chapter 182: I said that if you mess with me, you get sent down below, but if that's all you got, it hardly qualifies as messing with me. Nothing outta the ordinary in the slammer today. Just a peaceful day at home.

Chapter 183: Today at least three lives will be lost in this prison.

Chapter 184: Whoa! Three dead cockroaches!
See?

Chapter 185: Well, I got in a fight with a friend and I want to know how we can make up.

Chapter 185:

Chapter 185: The name's Tenkyu. I think we're gonna get along just fine!

Chapter 187: You ever hear of assassin called Taro Sakamoto? I'm on a mission to kill him and his pals.

Chapter 187: Tenkyu is fundamentally different from the rest of us.
What makes you say that? We all survived Al-Kamar together... We're friends aren't we?
One of the purposes of Al-Kamar was to create killing machines with no emotions. We were failures. He was a success.

Chapter 187:

Chapter 188: Well, the reason me and my buddy got in a fight was about whether or not to kill.
Kill who?
Taro Sakomoto's wife and daughter!

Chapter 188:

Chapter 188: Even if it does violate the Sakamoto family rules, I've gotta take this scumbag right here and now!

Chapter 189: Oh, I get it! You were lying Shin! So, I can kill all of you! Well, that's easy!

4/5 Stars (%80/100)

Another great volume! Shin and Heisuke went to the JAA prison so they can find the mysterious fortuneteller and get stronger in the process. Most of the book is dedicated to Shin and Heisuke's adventures. Tenkyo is introduced and I saw his name before so I knew he was with Uzuki. Meanwhile, Sakamoto is also trying to get stronger by fighting Torres over and over. After the training arc is over, there will be great fights. But I still don't know how anyone will beat Uzuki when he has Takamura's personality.

HOLY SHIT. so tenkyu is insane, now we just need gozu to show up and we’ll have met the whole orphanage gang. the fortune teller girl is cool, her character design is reminiscent of neon in hxh. wondering why shin’s esp didn’t work on tenkyu though, that could be an issue for later…also i really don’t want kei to die in the end. especially after he wouldn’t team up with tenkyu bc tenkyu wanted to kill taro’s wife and daughter. he is redeemable to me !

[cris · Rating 4 out of 5]

Honestamente, yo haría lo mismo que Shin, no lo juzgo. Si alguien viene y me dice que tuvo si quiera la decencia, de no solo pensar pero decir out loud de matar a Aoi y a Hana, yo tbn diría FUCK EVERYTHING y rompería la promesa de do not kill. ES MÁS LO HARÍA SUFRIR. Acércate un pelo a ellas y verás como te descuartizo a pedazos🤪🙈.

Boh continuano a darmi fastidio certe dinamiche.
Ceh rega ma dite che è un mezzo fantasy e basta, ceh createci un worldbuilding sensato.
Non mi venite a dire che la bro è talmente fortunata che ha ricostruito una pistola scuotendo i pezzi dai

sakamoto’s back story with shin was really great to read. not really a fan of sudden flashbacks but this one worked for me.
