Sakamoto Days Manga Enters Final Battle Phase
Sakamoto Days manga enters its final battle phase after nearly five years.
The countdown is on. Sakamoto Days has officially entered its final battle phase as of August 2025, marking the beginning of the end for the series that's spent nearly five years building toward this moment.
The manga launched in Weekly Shonen Jump back in November 2020 and has since become one of the publisher's most adapted properties. The anime's first season hit screens in January 2025, with a second season locked in for January 2027. A live-action film adaptation also released this year, opening at number four in its weekend box office.
For English readers, Viz Media and MANGA Plus have been publishing the series digitally, so the climax is accessible wherever you're following along. There's also Sakamoto Holidays, a spinoff that launched in July 2024 for those wanting more of the universe beyond the main story.
If you've been waiting on this one—or if you're just catching up—the timing is worth noting. With the manga heading into its final stretch and the anime gearing up for its second season in 2027, the next year and a half will be crucial for how this story wraps. The fact that the live-action film already exists means the story has proven itself across multiple formats, which is rare enough to matter.
