At the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, Netflix unveiled a teaser trailer and teaser art for Season 2 of ‘SAKAMOTO DAYS’ and confirmed that it will debut exclusively on Netflix in January 2027. The teaser video offers the first look at legendary former hitman Taro Sakamoto infiltrating and operating inside the assassin-training institution JCC (Japan Cleaner Culture) while disguised as a trainee teacher named Aoi, with Shin posing as a student. The accompanying teaser art depicts Sakamoto and Shin standing back-to-back before their infiltration of JCC.

Season 2 begins as Sakamoto and Shin infiltrate JCC to investigate the mysterious figure X (Slur). Meanwhile, Order members Nagumo, Shishiba, and Osaragi head to Kyoto for a mission, only to be ambushed by an unexpected attacker. As the conspiracy deepens, the shared past of young Sakamoto, Nagumo, Rion, and Slur finally comes to light.

New faces will join returning characters from Season 1, including Natsuki Seba and Akira Akao. Amane, a top-ranked JCC student who harbors hostility toward the Order, will be voiced by Kikunosuke Toya; Satoda, JCC’s longest-serving instructor who once taught Sakamoto, will be voiced by Misa Watanabe; and Yotsumura, one of the Order’s mysterious founding members, will be voiced by Shinshu Fuji.

There are also changes to the production team. Daisuke Nakajima, who directed Episode 22 in Season 1, will become the new director, while Season 1 director Masaki Watanabe will move into the role of chief director. Series composition writer Taku Kishimoto, character designer Yo Moriyama, and composer Yuki Hayashi will remain, and animation production will continue to be handled by TMS Entertainment.
