Please note: This article reflects the writer’s personal opinions.
The Most Powerful Characters in Sakamoto Days from the JAA and Uzuki’s Organization
Name: Hyo
He is a formidable member of the Order, an elite group of assassins within the Japanese Association of Assassins (JAA), known for his towering height and muscular build. Despite his intimidating appearance, he has a gentle heart and shows great compassion towards others.
Additionally, he was not born with innate talent. Nevertheless, with intense training, he has established himself as one of the most formidable assassins. His sheer strength is most apparent when he unleashes punches with his brass knuckle-clad fists.
Gaku
Gaku, a prominent antagonist, was brought up in the Al-Kamar orphanage with the intention of becoming a member of the Order. The rigorous training he underwent led to him acquiring immense physical prowess, which he has displayed by effortlessly dispatching numerous JAA members.
He is always seen with a massive mace that has a lengthy handle and a head adorned with spikes, containing a laser cannon.
Kanaguri Marathon
Kanaguri, a former member of the Order and an undercover operative for Uzuki, is both an assassin and an enthusiastic yet unconventional filmmaker. He perceives the entire universe as a grand movie set and all its inhabitants as actors.
In addition, he is known for creating successful movies centered around assassins, using his real-life murders as inspiration for the film’s scenes. Along with his camera equipment, Kanaguri owns a clapperboard that is known for its sharpness and ability to withstand gunfire, making it a deadly weapon in his arsenal.
Satoru Yotsumura
Yotsumura, a renowned member of the Order and a professor at the JCC, was previously the second-in-command of the JAA. He is widely known as one of the most skilled assassins, with a reputation for being quick and ruthless in his actions, despite his advanced age.
He went to the extreme of murdering his spouse, Shino, who was also a hired killer, in front of their child. He favors a three-part staff with a blade affixed to it as his weapon of choice.
Shishiba
Initially a renegade killer, he encountered Yotsumura and eventually became his apprentice and enlisted in the Order. He favors a modest set of claw hammers as his weapon of choice, valuing their simplicity and ability to cause substantial harm.
Remarkably, he has used these hammers to successfully deflect bullets and other projectiles aimed at him.
Cut down
The recently appointed character currently holds the position of leader within the Order. He has just returned from a mission abroad, and it is widely believed that he is an extremely formidable and lethal adversary, potentially ranking as the top assassin in the JAA.
Despite not seeing Shishiba as a threat, he remains determined to eliminate the Special Class-A extermination targets of Sakamoto, Nagumo, and Uzuki. His true abilities and rank will only be fully revealed when he faces off against these individuals.
Taro Sakamoto
Despite his weight gain and comical moustache, Sakamoto should not be underestimated. He was once renowned as the greatest assassin before he made the decision to leave his profession and settle down with his wife and daughter, opening a shop instead.
He is capable of burning through all his excess weight and reverting to a slender and nimble assassin when the situation calls for it. However, his current restriction is his dedication to avoiding killing.
Yoichi Nagumo
This relaxed and mischievous assassin hails from a lineage of spies. He possesses the remarkable skill of quickly imitating the appearance of others and can also disguise his companions. His combat prowess and cleverness establish him as one of the most powerful assassins in the JAA.
Despite being a skilled marksman, his preferred weapon is a staff with multiple blades, including one that is invisible.
Takamura
Despite his advanced age and apparent disabilities, the man wielding a katana and muttering incoherently is actually one of the most formidable members of the Order. Despite being blind and deaf, he possesses a keen sense for bloodlust that allows him to easily track down his targets.
Kei Uzuki
The main antagonist in the series is Uzuki, who also responds to the names X and Slur. His main objective is to eliminate the chairman of JAA and dismantle the organization.
Prior to this point, old man Takamura was regarded as the most formidable character. However, there has been a significant shift in circumstances. Uzuki now possesses the power to summon an alter ego of his opponent during critical moments.
Through this method, he was able to take on the persona of Takamura and ultimately bring about his own demise. If a stronger individual were to arise in the future, he may resort to the same tactics.
