Jump Festa 2026 Major Announcement: SAKAMOTO DAYS Season 2 Makes a Powerful Return
Foreword
On December 20, 2025, at the Jump Super Stage of the annual anime event "Jump Festa 2026," the official announcement sent global fans into a frenzy with the blockbuster news—the immensely popular killer action comedy SAKAMOTO DAYS has been greenlit for a second season!
As the mystery of "X (Shirou)" gradually surfaced in the first season's anime, the highly anticipated "JCC Arc" has finally been confirmed for animation. The official release of the production decision visual and an advance teaser PV was simultaneous. This article will provide an in-depth analysis of the major details revealed in this announcement.

Jump Festa 2026 Major Announcement: SAKAMOTO DAYS Season 2 Makes a Powerful Return
At today's event, after the organizers reviewed the first season's thrilling battles, they immediately dropped a bombshell. SAKAMOTO DAYS Season 2 is officially in production!
The style of the newly revealed "Production Decision Visual" is completely different from the first season's everyday atmosphere:
- The figure in the image is not the familiar chubby uncle Sakamoto, but a lean and fit Taro Sakamoto from his time at the JCC (Killer Cultivation Center)
- He is straddling a large motorcycle, looking back sharply with a gun aimed at a target behind him
- The aura of the legendary strongest killer is vividly conveyed through the image
This visual hints that the second season will delve deep into Sakamoto's unknown past.
Season 2's Core Plot: Infiltrating the JCC and Uncovering Shirou's True Identity
In the first season's story, Sakamoto fought off countless assassins coming for the 1 billion yen bounty to protect his family. However, the threat posed by the mysterious figure manipulating it all, "X (Shirou)," far exceeds that of an ordinary killer.
In the second season, the plot will enter the thrilling "JCC Infiltration Arc":
- Sakamoto and his companions learn that "X's" true identity is actually Arigetsu, a classmate from their JCC days
- To find more clues and stop his ambitions, they decide to infiltrate the cradle of killers—the JCC
- Viewers will see a story that interweaves the "present" and the "past"
This means that while Sakamoto's group fights for information in the modern day, the story will also reveal the past student days of Sakamoto, Nagumo, Shin, Arigetsu, and others at the JCC.
