New SAKAMOTO DAYS Chinatown-Themed Lottery Launches!
Attention all fans! The TV anime SAKAMOTO DAYS is getting a fresh batch of collectibles through the “Taito Kuji SAKAMOTO DAYS: Chūkagai na Hinichijō” (which can be translated as “Unordinary Chinatown Days”). This lottery features exclusive goods adorned with brand-new illustrations centered on a “Chinatown” theme. Mark your calendars, as it rolls out sequentially starting February 14, 2026, at participating hobby shops, bookstores, and other retailers across Japan.
What is SAKAMOTO DAYS?
For those new to the scene, SAKAMOTO DAYS is a gritty action manga by Suzuki Yuuto that began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump back in 2020. With over 15 million copies in global circulation, it’s a certified hit. The story follows Sakamoto Taro, a former legendary hitman who now fights alongside his companions to protect the peaceful daily life he cherishes with his family from a slew of assassins.
Anime & Live-Action Buzz
The anime adaptation has been turning heads, thanks to its solid production. Here’s a quick look at the key players behind it:
| Role | Name |
|---|---|
| Director | Watanabe Masaki |
| Animation Production | Toms Entertainment |
| Voice of Sakamoto Taro | Sugita Tomokazu |
The first season aired in 2025 across two cours, packed with intense battles as Sakamoto faced countless assassins and the mysterious figure “X.” The plot thickens as the crew uncovers X’s identity and infiltrates the JCC, setting the stage for an eagerly anticipated second season. On top of that, a live-action film directed by Fukuda Yuuichi and starring Meguro Ren is slated for release on April 29—so there’s plenty to look forward to!
