What Happens in Sakamoto Days Chapter 177?

Sakamoto Days Chapter 177 featured an intense fight between Mr. Sakamoto and his former friend and co-founder of the Order, Kindaka. The character had been introduced quite a few chapters ago as one of the original members of the assassin group that Sakamoto belonged to. Kindaka awoke from a coma at the beginning of the chapter and, in order to pay off hefty medical bills, decided to go after Sakamoto’s high bounty award.

The humor of the chapter comes when Kindaka refuses to believe that Sakamoto is the legendary assassin due to his weight gain. A fight ensues between him, Sakamoto, Shin, and Heisuke before they eventually come to an understanding because of Sakamoto’s overwhelming strength. Eventually, the chapter ends with the tease that Sakamoto will recruit Kindaka to train Shin and Heisuke, something that will no doubt lead to some unorthodox training arc.

And that’s the confirmed release date of Sakamoto Days Chapter 178.
