Sakamoto Days Creator Already Has the Ending in Mind

By Nick Valdez

Sakamoto Days has really gotten on a hot streak as the manga crossed 100 chapters, and the creator behind the series has revealed that they already have plans in place for how the series will come to an end! Yuto Suzuki's original manga series first made its debut in the pages of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine back in the Fall of 2020, but has since become one of the most killer series in the magazine overall as it crossed over its 100th chapter milestone. While there's no telling when the ending can happen, the creator is ready for it.

With Sakamoto Days reaching its 100th chapter milestone, Shueisha celebrated in a big way with a special interview with series creator Yuto Suzuki as they opened up about their influences behind the series, future plans and more. It's here that the creator revealed that they actually have a plan in mind for the series' ending, so fans can rest easy knowing that the creator is already laying the groundwork for how the manga will come to an end.

How Will Sakamoto Days End? 

In the interview with Shueisha's Jump GIGA (as detailed by @WSJ_manga on Twitter), Suzuki revealed that creators like Takehiko Inoue (the mind behind Slam Dunk) and Hiroya Oku (the mind behind Gantz) have influenced their career along with filmmakers like Christopher Nolan. Not believing that the series would move on beyond its initial one-shot, the creator also revealed that they love thinking of the wild and elaborate kinds of action sequences that we see play out in the series.

As for how it will end, while Suzuki did not reveal when the ending will be coming or what exactly fans could expect, the creator did confirm they have "clearly" planned the conclusion of the series. Hopefully it's not going to be any time soon as the series really seemes to be just hitting its stride now with all sorts of new layers added to its assassin filled world.
