Sakamoto Days Part 2 Episode 7 Discussion

Shin doesn't want Sakamoto to help him in the exam. But I think he did kinda end up saving his ass near the end. Sakamoto and Akira, that is. But Shin is already really competent. He really beat that kid's ass.

Based on the OP I guess Sakamoto and Shin once knew Akira's mom who was likely an assassin. The resemblance is so uncanny but for some reason they don't recongnize her lol. Wonder why she decided to be an assassin when she's clearly not cut out for it. Pride? Desperation? Guess I'll find out soon.

That weird cameraman examiner almost looks like a JoJo character. The pilot getting killed mid-flight was crazy enough but then the whole plane fucking exploded and they fell on a remote island. This series is crazy but this was probably the craziest and most unrealistic episode yet.

Probably the weakest or the second weakest episode animation wise in the second cour this adaptation pisses off so much... I really hope the studio changes for season 2

Oh I totally didn't expect a sudden manservice moment in the middle of the air, it's a good kind of fanservice though, they're all take of their shirts just before beach episode.

If this anime doesn't have Sakamoto in its name, I'd have thought that Shin is the lead protagonist, but I don't mind since they're all interesting.

I know 300 people died from the first stage alone and I should be sad, but the after credit scene almost make me want to say that this is a "heartwarming" episode.

@AishinDesu I completely disagree. The animation has always been good, and there hasn't been a drop off yet.

This doesn’t make any sense. 😂
Who could possibly sew while falling from a plane? Besides, where would they even get the needle and thread from?

@AishinDesu most of the eps have been weak directing and Animation wise in this Cour

Wait, how do you even get a reading like kanaguri from 京

@KingBaller06 not sure you even know what animation is
This comment looks like cope

So I’m not the only one that thought he seemed like a Jojo character, that’s a good kind of character to be imo lol.

But yeah this episode was super fun, this exam arc has been a really exciting ride so far, with lots of goofiness sprinkled in of course, it wouldn’t be SakaDays otherwise lol. So blue babe’s name is Akira, and although she’s rough when it comes to combat, she is incredibly skilled at sewing as we saw during the falling out of the sky bit, whether she’ll be a good assassin or not, you can’t deny she was epic here, maybe she can turn the sewing skills into assassin skills somehow. And going back to Kanaguri, I really liked his moments, he’s so over the top and flamboyant which I’m a fan of, and I’m also a big movie fan so I understood his anger at Mafuyu lol.

And wow Kanaguri even figured out a way around Shin’s future sight, our boy just got that upgrade but it’s already confirmed to have a weakness lol, I wonder how exactly Kanaguri did it, maybe we’ll find out eventually. Shin was really cool against Mafuyu tho, and somehow they became friends lol, that’s cool I guess, I wonder if Shin will ever catch on that it’s Seiba’s brother or not (if I’m right about that anyway, hasn’t been confirmed in the show yet).

the content of the episode itself carried again this time. shin and mafuyu's dynamic is jokes and damn they showed akao more clearly here than in the manga. the jojo character; kanaguri is here and his introduction was great. rolling the dolly lmao. also sakamoto remembring how he taught shin how to shoot was neat, that's gonna come full circle later.
but i can't say i ever expected them to match the manga since the shading was so detailed.


just wish they did the falling scenes better, some iconic panels in there.


the JCC examiners customizing the test on the spot was jokes though. and we got a certain labubu sakamoto plushie at the end.

Kanaguri's aura has some strong Jojo vibes, almost felt like I was watching a different show. he in line with Takamura on the coolest character chart.

@0451 We're talking about a series where a dude can read minds (Shin Asakura), somebody (Taro Sakamoto) can casually outrun trains, a woman (Dump) has spikes that come out of her body, and you're talking about THINGS BEING REALISTIC?!

@Trackmaster89 Nope.

You simply don't appreciate great animation.
