This was a fun series, at least until those theories.. Having something so dark without really being addressed reminds me of another comedy series I recently seen..

I like the generally light hearted comedy this show offered but damn after reading all those Sakamoto theory and that ending, I feel sad all of a sudden. Totally didn't see that coming.

Edit: I have to mention "knee destruction". :D

It was a good anime.
I wouldn't say is the best comedy of this season, but is definetly up there

It had some moments that were predictable or boring... but the anime can make up for that

8/10

(Also, does someone know what was that anime that appeared right before the ending?)

There's this theory going on among the manga readers in which Sakamoto is DYING. And that is why he is ''leaving'' or whatever, according to the manga. I find it extremely interesting, as it makes a lot of sense.

Because I am a lazy person, I decided to copy/paste some of the comments I've seen on the last manga chapter or under this episode on some websites :











ANYWAYS! I don't know if that actually interested someone. Just wanted to bring some info in here.




Thanks for this very detailed information.

Never thought that Sakamoto's mystery was quite deep since the anime did not explain anything about Sakamoto's mysterious life.

After happily hanging onto Sakamoto for so long, the feels are real. Everyone getting creampies to cover their tears were truly touching...

Then there came the Sakamoto Theory. The feels amplified into a wtf and actually made me sadder than when I finished the anime ,_,

Can't wait for the special~

Well, that was a nice conclusion to one of the season's best for me. I enjoyed almost all ep, except a few hiccups here and there. Didn't expect that dying theory and that actually makes sense. ;_;

8/10. Will miss this.

Pretty solid ending of this quite hilarious anime I must say! I do wonder what the 13th unaired episode will have to offer, but in general I must say that I sure liked to marathon this anime!

All in all a pretty good anime!

Despite of the theory of sakamoto having a deadly illness the overall plot of the anime itself is emotional. As seen from the last episode, sakamoto looking back at his friends almost made him tear up. Thats why he covered his face with the pie. With the theory connected, the story goes about a boy with a deadly illness living his highschool life to the fullest, in the coolest way and making great memories to take on his deathbed.

this is an example of a very good anime.

So, after reading the death theory, a thought occurred to me


Personally I'm still a fan of the "Sakamoto is an alien" theory, but only because the alternative is just too sad :(

Still, I really enjoyed this anime

Not to rain on everyone's RIP Sakamoto parade, but the evidence just leads me to believe that Sakamoto may be some kind of alien instead.

Either way, pretty good adaptation.

Dang it why must people (over)analyse this series! Now I am uber sad. ): I wish to know it isn't true that Sakamoto is very ill and is going to die, but the theory seems so convincing with people providing proofs and all that.. )';

The series started well, but got somewhat stale in the middle, and somewhat creepy especially with Kubota's mom. The episodes with bullying weren't the most enjoyable ones for this series. It ended well though.

I read the theory too. It sounds very credible tbh. I haven't looked into the manga myself, but you know how they always throw foreshadowing and stuff like that into the story, it got me thinking and it pretty much effed me up and blew my mind into how much deeper this anime was. If this is true (which I do believe it is) then I think that many viewers are not giving this anime enough credit.It gave me some heavy Clannad vibes after that. But the ending really got me. Loved it and hated the writers at the same time. 9/10

I did not in a million years think I would cry at the end of this series...the whole thing with Atsushi, and then Sakamoto's speech hit me right in the feels.

That Fukase thing was hilarious though, the irony of him actually becoming a surfer dude after his (extremely belated) graduation lmao

Oh and don't even get me started on the expression Sakamoto gave us right at the end there also pretty sure he pied himself in the face cuz he was crying



It's the first time he's ever broken out of his Swagamoto mold and I was not expecting it. He looked like he really wanted to stay ;_;
Now the question is....is Sakamoto an alien, or has he got some sort of illness?? Is he a ghost?!! Anything is possible, but I guess it's left up to the imagination since we'll never know. Hayabusa got it out there that he was onto Sakamoto lying about going to America & it seemed like Sakamoto implied he spent a lot of time in the nurses office...

Ah well, either way I think it's a shame there's no more content- I was never bored whilst watching and I feel like it could've gone on for a lot longer...especially with how surprisingly colorful the supporting cast were. It gave me Gintama vibes with how absurd and OTT it was, I'll miss Swagamoto!!

A satisfying ending to a funny series. Reading people's theories about Sakamoto actually dying really makes me think, as well as makes me a little depressed. Not for one second did I think Sakamoto was actually dying. But a lot of signs point to it, I just don't want it to be true.

I am however, glad that the anime was able to fully adaptate the manga. That's a rare thing these days, so it's refreshing to see.

I'll most definitely be checking out the manga too.

Sakamoto Desu Ga was fun, silly, ridiculous, and some times laugh out loud series. I think the comedy was well executed with both its timing and ingenuity. Sakamoto is the man, and I've grown to like him quite a lot.

Thanks for the ride Sakamoto, you magnificent man. 8/10

I didn't really care for how the main antagonist was handled at the end of this; it was super lame and honestly, just downright stupid. The last few episodes were trying to be really touching, which was cool, but I don't think that's what it really excelled at. I think the strongest aspect of this anime was definitely the comedy, which I think the series, unfortunately, got away from towards the end. But with that being said this was literally one of the funniest things I've ever seen. It had masterpiece potential but just fell a little short for me by the end.

Whoa, did not expect an ending on such a sad note. Sakamoto is actually dying and it was his first and last high school year? That's just... depressing, especially when you consider that all those kids have to cope with their friend going away forever. Never even caught wind of all the hints that were left.

The comedy was exactly my type, Sakamoto was always cool and surprisingly the side characters were pretty decent, and as a nice little bonus I loved the jazzy music they chose for Sakamoto's themes. I still don't know how to feel about the ending, it was unexpectedly sad though definitely well done, wonder why the author decided to not let Sakamoto continue to exist.

Final episode: 5/5
Series overall: 8/10

That one look on his face that was genuinely filled with emotion was what almost made my eyes water...

I LOVED this series... it was too hilarious from start to finish!!

The ending did leave me wondering about Sakamoto leaving since I didn't completely buy the whole "transfer to America" thing especially with Hayabusa talking to him the way he did. That scene was what raised all the questions for me.

But I never would have guessed he was actually leaving because
like the theories suggest. Wahhhhh... that's too damn sad but also nice(?) since it gives the whole story even more depth that I would never have expected from a show like this. Ugh.

Either way, I love it. I love Sakamoto and I'll miss him~

Wow what a journey. It maybe short, but it was so good.

Now we know why he is Swagamoto or God himself. As for leaving at the end and rumor he has a disease. That's a good theory, but I don't think he would die like that. He is god himself. He would find a cure and treat it before he dies!!

Either way, I can't wait for the OVA!

This is so well thought out it's scary. What an interesting theme the entire anime would have if that was the case..

but gg. Great ending to a great series. everything about the ending kept the same vibe as the rest of the entire anime. This was really a great ending. Everything about it rang Sakamoto-Kun as the rest of the anime did, and this was probably the best episode too. Such a shame an episode got cut out.

I tried to raise the anime's rating but we apparently only go up to 10.



Adding also that in the opening in the blue road before Sakamoto's glasses there's a strange signal: a return arrow and below an "X". This has two meanings
It makes it look like a ribbon to represent someone's death, also that there's no return... or in other words
There's no return from sakamoto's fate.
Quite creepy, since I never seen a signal like that.
