I guess this means you're not Sakamoto. But then, no one is. Laughing

I think Sakamoto's disgusting attractiveness comess across fine in the art, but each to their own. Nice review, and thanks for reminding me to buy it.

I didn't know this was coming out here! That its being published by Seven Seas is even more surprising, doesn't seem like their type of title. Sounds interesting and funny. Thanks for the review.

I ordered my copy. After reading this awhile back.

Sakamoto is totally a character from "Jojo`s Bizzare Adventure" Lol.

he takes an umbrella with him into the bathroom stall to prevent an undue soaking and when his desk is stolen, he simply lounges elegantly on the windowsill

Probably the best moment is the one you see when you Google the series name:

Reading the description, I was reminded of -- of all things -- "Sexy Commando Gaiden: Sugoi yo!! Masaru-san." Maybe Masaru Hananakajima is that cousin the Sakamotos don't discuss at family gatherings.

Reading the story all at once vs on a chapter by chapter basis isn't something I really noticed when reading this manga, but I can certainly see how reading it chapter by chapter makes it more enjoyable.

As for whether or not Sakamoto is human or not, for me I feel like it'd be funnier if he was just some really strange and incredible human, but in the end he really is just Sakamoto. This manga really is great and I'm glad it's been brought out of Japan.
