SAKAMOTO DAYS Season 2 Is Confirmed on Netflix and Here Is Everything We Know
SAKAMOTO DAYS Season 2 is officially happening on Netflix. The first season — following retired legendary hitman Taro Sakamoto, who gave up his life of violence for a quiet family existence — pulled tens of millions of views in 2025 and the renewal was announced at Jump Festa ’26. Netflix has not confirmed a release date yet but the Season 2 announcement comes with poster art that has already started generating serious excitement online.
Season 1 established SAKAMOTO DAYS as one of the most entertaining action comedies to come out of the Weekly Shonen Jump pipeline in years. Sakamoto’s premise generates comedy and action in equal measure. The fight choreography in Season 1 was genuinely inventive, and TMS Entertainment’s animation captured the manga’s kinetic energy without losing its comedic timing. Season 2 has a strong foundation to build from.
The manga’s story deepens considerably as the series continues. Season 2 is expected to adapt the Order arc and its aftermath, which introduces new factions, escalates the threat to Sakamoto’s family, and begins peeling back the mythology surrounding the assassin world he left behind. The emotional stakes rise alongside the action, which is exactly what a good second season does.
Given Netflix’s pattern with anime renewals — announcing early and releasing roughly 12 to 18 months after confirmation — a late 2026 or early 2027 premiere window is a reasonable expectation. The Jump Festa announcement suggests production is already underway. More details will follow and this site will cover them when they drop.
My take: SAKAMOTO DAYS getting a Season 2 is one of the cleanest can’t argue with this renewal decisions of 2026. The show earned it with consistent quality, a devoted fanbase, and a manga source with significantly more story to tell. The wait will be worth it. If you have not watched Season 1 yet, now is the perfect time before Season 2 arrives.
