In Sakamoto Days chapter 148 Sakamoto defeated the assassins
At the start of the last chapter, Sakamoto learned from Toramaru that Uzuki had hidden a bomb inside of her. This shocking discovery filled Sakamoto with anger, realizing the lengths Uzuki would go to carry out his plan.
Determined to keep Toramaru safe, Sakamoto vowed to defend her from any assassins. His courageous decision should have increased Toramaru's admiration for her idol even more.

This placed her in a difficult situation. The Sakamoto she encountered was a plump, middle-aged ex-assassin, not the slim and alluring man who had previously rescued her.
Toramaru ultimately chose to embrace his fan identity for Uzuki, admiring his youthful appearance. However, Sakamoto's decision to dress them in father-daughter attire and his possession of a childish wallet only added to her disappointment.

Sakamoto used his earphones and origami shuriken to defeat the assassins, including the ninja Ninnin Man, who was armed with a kusarigama and a katana. After the battle, he shared some wise words with Toramaru.
He explained that it's okay to be a fan of someone, as everyone needs someone to look up to. But he also encouraged her to admire and support herself. His advice brought Toramaru to tears, but it was evident that she still idolized Sakamoto instead of embracing his message.
What to expect from the upcoming Sakamoto Days chapter 149?

In Sakamoto Days chapter 149, Sakamoto faces off against additional assassins in order to rescue Toramaru from the museum and free Shin and Mafuyu, who have been incapacitated and captured by the JAA. Their release is crucial for removing the bomb from Toramaru's body. Meanwhile, readers can anticipate the outcome of Uzuki's plot to eliminate Asaki, a plan that both Mafuyu and Toramaru oppose.
Editor's P/S
As an enthusiastic fan of Sakamoto Days, I eagerly await the release of chapter 149. The recent developments in the manga have been nothing short of exhilarating, with Sakamoto's triumph over the assassins in chapter 148 leaving me in awe of his combat prowess. His ability to protect Toramaru, despite her initial disappointment in his appearance, showcases his unwavering dedication to those he cares about.
The upcoming chapter promises even more excitement, as Sakamoto faces off against additional assassins in his quest to rescue Toramaru and free Shin and Mafuyu. The stakes are high, with the fate of Toramaru's life hanging in the balance. I can't help but feel a sense of anticipation mixed with anxiety, wondering how Sakamoto will overcome these new challenges and emerge victorious.
