The fifth episode of the TV anime "SAKAMOTO DAYS," based on the popular manga by Suzuki Yuuto that is currently being serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump" (Shueisha), titled "The Reason for Strength," will be broadcast on TV Tokyo and other channels on February 8th.
Sakamoto and his friends are attacked by Donden-kai's assassins Boyle and Obiguro at a haunted house in an amusement park. During the fight with Boyle, Sakamoto's memories of his days as an assassin come back to him, and in order to protect his beloved family, he challenges Boyle to a one-on-one fight in earnest. Meanwhile, Shin and Lou are forced into a difficult battle against Boyle's partner, Obiguro. Meanwhile, Nagumo and the special task force "ORDER", which is directly under the control of the Assassin Association, have begun investigating a certain incident that has recently been occurring in the assassin community.
The story is about Taro Sakamoto, a former legendary assassin who runs a shop after retiring, who fights against approaching assassins with his friends to protect the peaceful daily life he lives with his beloved family. This is a popular "Weekly Shonen Jump" work with impressive battle scenes featuring unique characters, and the appearance of a luxurious cast of voice actors such as Nobunaga Shimazaki as Shin Asakura, a psychic who can read other people's minds and a Nobunaga Shimazaki of Sakamoto's from his days as an assassin, and Ayane Sakura as Ayane Sakura, a former mafia member who now works at Sakamoto Shoten, is also a hot topic.
