Synopsis

Tarou Sakamoto was considered the greatest hitman of all time. Feared by many, he stood at the top of the underground world until he met and fell in love with a woman. As a result, Sakamoto abandoned his life of crime and now works as a convenience store clerk.

Leaving his shady past behind proves more difficult than Sakamoto initially imagined. Many of his former rivals and partners do not believe that he has truly left the business and show up in hopes of taking him out. Barred from killing, Sakamoto must find creative ways to subdue his enemies and prevent them from bringing harm to his family, his store, and the small town he resides in.

READ MINDS BRUV! Then everything makes a 180* turn and now they fight criminals and mafia bosses that want to to erase the main character due he is too OP"

Preliminary (225/? eps)
i loved reading it, it’s very enjoyable and it’s a fun read, but after a point (chapter 204ish) after the ahem big bad guy does his big bad stuff (tryna keep it spoiler free) .. it feels strange, like for the longest time people are getting assassinated in public, 9/11 events are happening left and right, but no one gives a flying fuck (its a running gag) but then the super bad guy takes over and suddenly i’m supposed to consider the socio economic impacts of assassination .. there’s so many fun characters in the show, like the sniper kamihate .. him and heisuke have ...

Preliminary (7/? eps)
The art is pretty bad; it looks like a teenager drew it, and I wish Lu wasn’t so removed from the story and that the mangaka put more effort into making things a tad bit more realistic. I understand the type of series this is and that, yes, it is fiction. But for the maturity it is, it’s kind of weird having kiddie-level logic and realism. For example, with Sakamoto's character, when he is chubby, he has a mustache but somehow magically loses it when he gets back in shape. This manga has quite a bunch of instances like that in terms of logic, and ...
