Sakamoto Days
Retirement keeps losing its grip on Taro Sakamoto, a former assassin who would rather run his corner store and protect his family than return to his old trade. Netflix carries all 11 episodes of this finished 2025 TV season. Each 24-minute episode mixes action with comedy built around a wonderfully awkward contrast: Sakamoto looks like an unassuming shopkeeper, yet trained killers still learn why his reputation survives. It suits viewers who enjoy fights with a comic premise and a lead whose restraint matters as much as his ability. The season begins the story, so newcomers can start immediately without catching up on another series.
About
Taro Sakamoto left behind a life as a feared assassin after falling in love. He now spends his days behind the counter of a neighborhood store, content with marriage and family life. His old profession refuses to stay buried, however, as people from that violent world begin intruding on the peace he chose. Sakamoto has also promised not to kill, which turns every confrontation into a problem of control rather than simple elimination. The comedy comes from watching an ordinary domestic routine collide with his extraordinary competence, while the action asks how far he can go without abandoning the person he became.
