Sakamoto Days 228: The Granny and the Drunkard Take on the Cop

The situation for Sakamoto and his allies has gone from bad to worse. With the JAA assassins in hot pursuit, a new threat emerges in the form of a rogue policeman. In the chaos of the chase, Lou and the clinic’s Granny Miya are left behind to face this dangerous foe. Chapter 227 showcased their hilarious and deadly teamwork and now all eyes are on Chapter 228 to see what happens next.

Sakamoto Days 227 Recap: An Unconventional Duo

Chapter 227, titled “Resolve” put a spotlight on the unlikeliest of duos: the perpetually drunk Lou and the surprisingly deadly Granny Miya. Lou kicked the policeman off the truck carrying Sakamoto, putting her life on the line to buy time. However, Granny Miya refusing to let Lou face the danger alone, joined her as well. She calmly declared that her job of healing Sakamoto was done and that his recovery was now up to him.

The chapter then showcased Granny Miya’s terrifying skill as she used acupuncture needles to disable a hitman and even freeze the policeman’s arm. The policeman, however proved to be an order level threat, biting down on one of her needles and declaring his twisted sense of justice. In a brilliant comedic moment, Lou, who had been feeling sick from drinking on an empty stomach, vomited. Granny Miya then used this to her advantage, throwing a lighter at the alcohol to create a devastating fireball but policeman was unbothered by it all and sentenced the two to Death for obstructing justice.

Sakamoto Days 228 Predictions & Theories: The Next Move

With the policeman still standing despite being engulfed in flames, the fight is far from over. The duo of Lou and Granny Miya have just begun their real battle and Chapter 228 will surely dive deeper into their unconventional fighting styles.

Here are the top predictions for what’s to come:

Granny Miya’s Full Power: We’ve only seen a glimpse of Granny Miya’s capabilities. She’s hinted that her “assassination license expired a decade ago” and that she might “forget to operate the brakes” when she fights. Chapter 228 will likely reveal her full power, showcasing why she was a top tier assassin in her prime.
Lou Sober and Focused: Now that Lou has vomited all the alcohol she drank, she’s no longer hindered by drunkenness. This could be the perfect moment for her to fully utilize her unique drunken fist style. We’ll likely see a more focused and dangerous Lou, fighting in sync with Granny Miya.
The Policeman’s True Identity: This assassin has a twisted sense of justice and a powerful fireproof body, suggesting he is no ordinary foe. Chapter 228 might reveal his true identity, his connection to the JAA and why he’s so obsessed with killing. This could give us insight into his backstory and why he’s so keen on becoming a member of the Order.
Sakamoto’s Mental Space: Granny Miya stated that she had done all she could for Sakamoto and his recovery is now up to his own will. This suggests we may get to see Sakamoto in a mental space, where he is fighting to find his way back to reality. It’s possible he will be confronted with his past or the resolve to protect his family, which will give him the strength to overcome his condition.
