The anime did not adapt everything and focused mostly on the major arcs. It's a shame because I think those one-off chapters are the best part of the manga.

For those reading the chapters as they were serialized, those chapters were nice breathers before diving into the next arc. However, I could see how they couldn't work for the anime, since the production staff were getting legit criticism on how mid the fight scenes for some episodes of the first part of season one.

Am I the only one or is Heisuke way funnier and cool in the manga rather than his showcase in the anime. In the manga he seems just like a near brainless goof ball which if we’re being honest every good ragtag group needs not to mention he comes with a cool bird. I’d have to say what really makes even this slightly toned down volume compared to the first too as still so incredible? It’s the vibe and atmosphere that’s literally pumped into the page, mixed with some of the best single moment in depth action shots I’ve yet to see drawn in manga, I mean I think we can all agree one of the absolute strongest moments from the entire volume is that night at the museum death battle we’ve all been dreaming of. 3.75/5

So here's the thing: I wasn't all that impressed by the first two volumes when I read them last year, but I decided to give this series another chance, because people are constantly losing their minds over the newest chapters. As of volume 3 I still don't really get it, but we'll see.

The introduction of new faces as well as character revelations and backstories for the old, volume 3 is a world building piece that sets up what is presumably the overarching first arc.

[Mizuki · Rating 3 out of 5]

With absolutely no attachment and fondness to the story and the characters, I can only give this volume 3 stars.

The author gave me nothing to root for the characters and their stories, although the drawing is nice and the action scenes outstanding.

A paintball contest goes humorously awry for Sakamoto and Shin when a real sniper shows up. And it sets into motion a series of events that lead to an origin story for Shin's telepathy. Fun action comedy.

Tenemos: un francotirador chalado que habla con su cacatúa y llora cada dos por tres, un reno asesino con armas por todo el cuerpo que se ha apoderado de un laboratorio clandestino y un fósil de un tiranosaurio que pelea y dispara por la boca. Además, conocemos un poco más el trasfondo de Shin.

Este manga no deja de sorprenderme en cada capítulo. Risas 100% aseguradas.

Sakamoto Days is pure fun. The story is starting to flesh out, characters are beginning to form and slowly but surely the world is opening. It is quite the standard third volume of any shonen manga series. The first prominent antagonist is shown and then voila, first larger arc begins. This series has a simple premise, which works super well, art is fantastic during action scenes and flows perfectly. Overall, I am very happy to be reading Sakamoto Days!

[James DeSantis · Rating 5 out of 5]

Still amazing.

This time Shin and Lu get to shine. Especially because we learn a lot more about Shin's past and how he got his power. Which is both sad and also kind of hilarious at the same time. But when Lu gets kidnapped Sakamoto and Shin work together to get her back, facing off against a bunch of goons. More shonen than usual but also they keep it fresh with some really cool ideas.

Overall, another funny, heartwarming, and badass volume of Sakamoto Days! A 4.5 out of 5.

why why why does Goodreads not have a 3½ star option 💢

I was entertained even though nothing jumped out at me—the action is good as always, the plot is getting somewhere, and the humor is... sporadic with some winners. Shin's backstory is actually really interesting but the quack doctor fight that follows is a little gimmicky

Heisuke's a great addition and the funniest in this volume
and Seba is introduced :)

تعریف روزهای ساکاموتو زیاد شنیده بودم ولی داستانش جذبم نکرد و خب آنچنان داستانی هم نداره در واقع فقط اکشن بی مغزه، تا جلد سوم ادامه دادم که ببینم چیزی درش تغییر میکنه یا نه و بله دیدم که فقط اکشن پشت اکشن.حالا اینجوری هم نیست که اکشن دوست نداشته باشم اتفاقا دوست دارم خیلی هم زیاد ولی نه بدون پلات درست و حسابی پس ترجیح میدم همینجا مانگا رو دراپ کنم.

Sakamoto Days vol. 3

This volume starts with a poor assassination, who works with a bird, going to Sakamoto's store, in order to kill him and get the reward, but after being unable to understand who Sakamoto is, he leaves. The next day the protagonists meet him again at a paintball tournament, with a big reward. There he gets in their team, because he doesn't know anyone else. He quickly realizes who Sakamoto is and unsuccessfully tries to kill him. Eventually he becomes friends with him and Shin. A few days later, Lu gets kidnapped by some assassins who have taken over the organization that raised Shin and made him clairvoyant. When they find out about that, Sakamoto and Shin go there in order to save her.
This volume was a bit underwhelming. It wasn't bad, but also it certainly wasn't as good as the previous ones. Something felt a bit off. The jokes didn't land very well, the story didn't seem as interesting and some parts were too ridiculous for my taste. Also the pacing wasn't particularly great and the story didn't flow very well. That being said, I really liked the characters. Sakamoto is very interesting and stoic. I like how much he loves his daughter and I always enjoy seeing him fighting. Lu is also very interesting, but in this volume we didn't get to see her as much as we did in the previous one. My favorite character of the manga though is Shin. His clairvoyant powers always make the story much more interesting and also work very well for comedy effect. In this volume we learn more about his life, his childhood and how he got his abilities. This was by far the best part of the entire volume. His personality makes a lot of sense, given the background that he has and his character is certainly much deeper than the rest. Another character that I liked is the assassin who works with a bird. He's not a bad guy, he's just poor, hungry and alone and wants some food and validation. I enjoyed reading him and I hope that he'll have an even bigger role in later volumes.
The artwork in this manga has never been its highlight and this volume isn't an exception. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad, but it's just not great either. There are some really gorgeous double splash-pages in this volume, but other than that the artwork is pretty average and at times it feels too sketchy.
Overall, this was an ok volume, with some great moments and some very uninteresting ones. Hopefully the next one will be better.
6/10

As Sakamoto attempts to gain funds to help renovate his shop by entering an airsoft tournament, the latest assassin to hunt him down is a financially-strapped one with a bird as his only companion. Later, an unexpected kidnapping occurs with a case of mistaken identity. It’s also connected to Shin’s past and who’s connected to the organization that wants Sakamoto dead. A (100%/Outstanding)

I enjoyed this one more than volume 2! I’ll definitely be picking up volume 4!

This reminds me of Gintama (I need to try and read it again now that I think about it). Silly silly silly silly silly and then boom, the most violent explosion of action and sudden serious plot. Just whiplash. I’m having fun!

[Shubhankar Sharma · Rating 4 out of 5]

Kept the same story beats. Hope they don't get rehashed too much.
On to the next one.

[MajesticalLion · Rating 5 out of 5]

June. 6 2021: This has been the best arc hands down. The wackiness of the assassins are so cool and off the walls crazy. Whether it be the mad scientist with the neural implants or the guy wearing a deer head with knives in his arm. This series is just dripping with personality. Highly recommend.

Sept. 1 2022: The Lab arc is the first big build up towards the greater plot of Slur and The Organization. Kashima and Seba are two of my favorite characters. The next volume is where things get insane, though. Can't wait!

[Ronald · Rating 4 out of 5]

This volume started strong. I enjoyed the paintball tournament assassination silliness. The new assassin is not so bright but has a good heart for a paid killer. The "lab" kidnapping the wrong character was silly but the fight trying to retrieve Lu on the bridge was well done. The fight against the litterall "Level Boss" of the Lab was just kind of annoying. So just 4 stars.

Bring the silly bird man into the fold! I like him and his silly bird!

Трохи неочікувано для себе читнув одним махом 3 томи манґи «Дні Сакамото» Юто Судзукі. Наразі цей шьонен налічує 20 томів.(Це ж скільки мені її ще дозбирувати)

Сюжет оповідає про одного з найкращих найманих вбивць - Таро Сакамото, який відійшов від справ та присвятив себе сім'ї. Водночас хтось робить замовлення на пана Сакамото. І тепер Сакамото та його «працівники» роблять все, щоб захистити сім'ю. Також через ці томи зав'язується історія убивці, що вбиває убивць. 

Історія дуже динамічна та комічна. Пан Сакамото - трохи погладшав, але все ще має свої навички, Шін Асакура - асасин-телепат, що читає думки та Лу Сяотан, донька боса китайської мафії (спеціалізується та стилі п'яного кулака та випічці свиних булочок). Можете уявити скільки комічних ситуацій може бути від цього тріо. 

Цим мені загалом і сподобалась манґа. Вдало балансує між екшоном та комедією. Чого лиш вартують епізоди з бійки за колекційну іграшку для доньки, чи похід до парку розваг наповненими вбивцями; або похід в кінопрокат для пошуку інформації. 

Купа прикольних ситуацій. Також в третьому тому під час страйкбольних змагань, нам показали ще одного певно постійного гостя - Машіма Хейсуке, який трохи тупенький, але неперевершений снайпер. 

Загалом за три томи ми ознайомилися з основними персонажами, їх історією та зав'язки антагоніста. малюнок шикарний. Деякі розвороти прям смак.

Ще б трохи хотів сказати за аніме. Воно добре. Файно дивитися. Купа мемів буде. Але щось багато сцен вирізано, ну або їх вставлять десь у філлер.

⭐⭐⭐☆☆

Volume 3 of Sakamoto Days continues the series' signature blend of action and humor, introducing new character Heisuke Mashimo. The volume centers around an airsoft tournament organized by the shopping arcade, where Team Sakamoto hopes to win the million-yen prize. However, the addition of Heisuke, a not-so-sharp sniper, brings both comedic moments and concerns about character development. Some readers feel that his running gag may not sustain interest in the long term .

While the action sequences remain engaging, and the artwork continues to impress, the narrative in this volume feels somewhat predictable. The introduction of Heisuke adds a new dynamic, but his character may not resonate with all readers. Overall, Volume 3 offers enjoyable moments but doesn't quite reach the heights of its predecessors.

[Blake the Book Eater · Rating 5 out of 5]

Pathetic sniper assassin is already a top tier character and I love him and his little bird. Also the beginning of the first long arc and it’s a fun one!!

The found family in strong in this manga 🥰

[Brittany · Rating 4 out of 5]

Dinosaur and bear fights, a lab for supernatural power creation, air soft tournaments, and all levels of ridiculousness. What's not to like? Yeah Lu is a bit annoying with her stupid at times but overall still just fun.

[Loay Mohammed · Rating 4 out of 5]

This Series Up until now gives a consistent level between action and comedy while building the characters and events, I’m Really Enjoy Reading it.

[Danielle Booey · Rating 3 out of 5]

I love how Sakamoto just collects a bunch of weirdos and brings them into his family. It might be my favorite part of the series. Yes, that means he’s collected another poor assassin haha.
