Synopsis: Taro Sakamoto was once a legendary hit man considered the greatest of all time. Bad guys feared him! Assassins revered him! But then one day he quit, got married, and had a baby. He’s now living the quiet life as the owner of a neighborhood store, but how long can Sakamoto enjoy his days of retirement before his past catches up to him?!

In order to avoid expulsion from the JCC, a young Sakamoto, Nagumo, and Akao are assigned a special mission—along with another outcast, Uzuki. The assassins close in on their target at a special department store for hit men, but unbeknownst to them, their actions there will alter the course of their futures forever…

My rating: ★★★★⯪

This was a bit of a flashback volume, going back to when Sakamoto was in school with Uzuki aka X, and Nagumo, among others. I really enjoyed following Sakamoto in his younger days and learning more about his past and his connections to all these characters we’ve come across throughout the series.

This was good, though! We got a lot of information, and there was also a lot of really good action, and it was hilarious, as always. I love the banter between all the characters! But yeah. I enjoyed this.
