Uuuuuh well, Sakamoto Days not getting luck with the studio was something we knew. Maybe that's me, but the opening doesn't look as good as the previous Jump series we have had last year.
My honest opinion,
Both the visual and song are okayish at best. Feel a bit outdated if you ask me.

Hyped for sakamoto anime, even if the string point is on its fights, there’s a lot more on the story than just that

I'm not going to make the same mistake last week. I'll make my votes right away.

Issue 6-7
1. Mission Yozakura Family
That moment FINALLY happened! And everything that happened with Kyocihiro is fantastic. I can honestly say that he is one of the most well written characters in SJ history. I'm still in awe at how Gondaira made this character work.
2. Undead Unluck
There's so much to like here that I can rave about. I mean, the only real flaws are that 2 certain characters never ended up showing their faces at all, but what we got here is still fantastic, and I can't wait to see what the last few chapters will be like.
3. The Elusive Samurai
A magnificent sendoff for one of Tokiyuki's most iconic enemies. The chapter where he and Tokiyuki drank together was one of my favourites, so it's not surprising that despite the great chapters this week, this made it into my top.

4. Ichi the Witch
I wanted to rank this higher, but my top 3 all hit me in the right places emotionally. That's not to take away from what this chapter accomplished. Ichi established himself as an entertaining protagonist, we saw a bit more of this Majik's personality, and Desscaras is hopefully going to finally show what she's made of.
5. Sid Craft
This series just never stops being entertaining. I'm honestly rooting for it to survive, and I believe in Tsutsui!

As doomed as Hakutaku is, I will say that this week's chapter was actually pretty solid.

My Issue #6-7 votes:

1. Undead Unluck
2. Mission: Yozakura Family
3. Akane-banashi

Runner-ups:
4. Witch Watch
5. Ichi the Witch
6. The Elusive Samurai
7. Kagurabachi
8. Nue’s Exorcist

So much peak this week. I feel like I’ve put YozaFam and Undead Unluck in the top 3 for several weeks now… but I can’t help it, what with all the mounting emotions of this closing off. It was really close this time between the two but I think Undead Unluck just beats out YozaFam for me this week. We’ll see if that holds true for next issue as well.

He probably has a sister he loves (in a family way) so much that he doesnt want to let anyone marry her

My bet is that this will end up like Toriko, it'll get a decent boost but be robbed by not actually capturing the manga's appeal (and I'm not saying it'll get the same boost like Toriko, not even Dandadan or Kaiju got a boost as good as it, different industry and all that.)
Just trying to understand here, are you saying it’ll only get a boost as good as Toriko’s, but not as good as DDD or Kaiju 8?

Sakamoto’s opening song is great, it’s a vibe. The animation looks straight up from any JC STAFF anime tho, which is not a compliment. I agree that it looks outdated and feels very very stiff/cheap, but we’ve known this ever since the first trailer.

You can't really draw comparisons, since a different industry and all. Kaiju and Dandadan were the biggest anime of 2024, and their physical boosts are still lower than Toriko's, but they performed better in other aspects (digital, streaming, etc.) that made them big. My point is that Toriko did aight, but much worse than it could've and should've, which I think will happen to Sakamoto, worse than Dandadan, and Kaiju. My comparison to Toriko was less numerical and more situational.

issue 6-7

1) Yozakura
2) Undead Unluck
3) Kagurabachi
4) Akanebanashi
5) Ichi the Witch


---------

Anyway seeing the Sakamoto opening is making me really upset. It's such a good series and I really think so many people will miss out on experiencing it because they either refuse to read manga on principle or won't after seeing this anime and thinking it's mediocre when it's been consistently far better than something like JJK has been. Oh well, guess you gotta cut your losses and move on!

So Axelablaze is doing this thing on YouTube where he will give a short every day for the next 365 days, and he talked about past one-shots and series (completed or cancelled), and he just did 2 in the last 4 days that came from Jump, Barrage and Doku Doku.

Feels too early for this, Sakamoto Days episode 1 hasnt even aired. The anime isnt even out, Theres more to an adaptation than visuals.

Not sure why the overwhelming view today is just negativity. Start 2025 off on a positive and uplifting and encouraging note, folks.

It'd be hilarious now if the entire show was just a sakugafest and feast for the eyes. I agree it's still too early to call game on the whole thing, but I only wish they gave us a reason to be excited.
Not sure why the overwhelming view today is just negativity
I think the fact there are so many people willing to talk about and vent their frustrations so far with the trailers and opening is exactly why this is a good thing. Shows people care, you know? If they thought Sakamoto was irredeemable garbage they wouldn't be half as bothered. Good or not, perhaps especially if it were good, it'd get a passing "well I'm happy/sad for the fans" but that'd be the extent of things. So long as people are passionate about the things they love, I don't think that could ever be a bad or truly negative thing. In fact, above bitching and moaning just blindly accepting a series for its blatant flaws and never thinking it could do better is a far more egregious offence in my opinion.

Most of these one-shot looks really cool or interesting. Usually I don't find it the case from gigas, but this one is cool to see
