Where Can I Read Sakamoto Days?
Sakamoto Days can be read at several different places online. Viz Media is available for those in the US and Canada, while Manga Plus can drop new chapters. However, it will also be available to read on Shonen Jump too.
At the time of writing, the printed volumes only go up to number 14 in Japan, so reading online is the definitive way to read this one.
Sakamoto Days: Chapter 165 Release Date
Sakamoto Days: Chapter 165 will be released on Sunday 12th May, at approximately 3 pm (GMT) / 7 am (PT) / 10 am (ET). Of course, it’s dependent on how quickly these chapters are uploaded. Expect this to be pretty close to the release time, though.
All other chapters are available on the above websites, while the ongoing anime is also available on Crunchyroll.
The chapter should be roughly 20-26 pages long. This is also a weekly release, so expect the next one to drop in a week.
How Many Chapters Will Sakamoto Days Have?
There’s been no indication that Sakamoto Days will end soon. However, Suzuki confirmed in a JUMP GIGA 2023: Winter (a quarterly sister magazine to Weekly Shonen Jump) issue in 2022 that he had already planned an ending for the series. Yet, no specific date or timeframe for the manga’s final chapter has been stated (so far). Therefore, it’s best to expect this series to continue for a year or so.
What Happened In Chapter 164?
Chapter 164 of Sakamoto Days begins where we left off in chapter 163, with Takamura arriving at the scene after the JAA Chairman announced Slur, Nagumo, and Sakamoto’s bounties. Then, a battle unfolds between Takamura, Nagumo, Slur, and Sakamoto. Takamura wounds Slur, but Nagumo saves him. Nagumo questions why he saved Slur, after all the horrible things he did to him.
While Nagumo is lost in his thoughts, Takamura attacks Nagumo. Sakamoto reverts to his slimmer form and knocks Takamura through a wall and into a nearby bus. Nagumo urges Sakamoto to flee the scene, but Sakamoto does not back down. Takamura returns, and he and Sakamoto engage in another battle. While Sakamoto battles Takamura, he admits that Takamura is way stronger than before. The chapter closes with a shot of Gaku.
