The Sakamoto Days anime adaptation is right around the corner in January 2025, and in the meantime fans of the manga will need to prepare for a week’s break from the action-comedy manga. According to this year’s 45th issue of Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine, author Yuuto Suzuki is taking a week off due to health issues.

Hopefully the one-week break gives Suzuki enough time to recover. The Sakamoto Days manga will be back in the pages of Jump when the next issue hits stands in Japan on October 15, 2024.

Following the Sakamoto one-shot that hit Jump Giga back in December 2019, the manga first launched in Jump in November 2020. November 1 of this year will mark the publication of the 19th collected volume in Japan.

VIZ Media publishes the Sakamoto Days manga and describes the story like so:

Sakamoto Days Plot
Time has passed peacefully for Sakamoto since he left the underworld. He’s running a neighborhood store with his lovely wife and child and has gotten a bit…out of shape. But one day a figure from his past pays him a visit with an offer he can’t refuse: return to the assassin world or die!
