Why we recommend it
Legendary hitman Sakamoto fell in love, retired, and became the owner of a neighborhood store. Even as assassins come after the bounty on his head, he fights back with items from the store while keeping his promise never to kill.
It may not be for you if
It starts out like a comedy action series with self-contained chapters, but gradually grows into a war between organizations. If you only expect light everyday comedy, the later story has a noticeably different tone.
