Oh you want proper description ? fine

Synopsis:

First year high school student Sakamoto isn't just cool, he's the coolest! Almost immediately after starting school, he began attracting everyone's attention. The girls love him, and most of the boys resent him. There's even a boy in the class who works as a model, but who is constantly upstaged by Sakamoto! No matter what tricks the other boys try to play on him, Sakamoto always manages to foil them with ease and grace. Though Sakamoto may seem cool and aloof, he helps others when asked, such as in the case of the boy in his class who was being constantly bullied. No matter what difficulties Sakamoto encounters, he moves through his high school life with confidence and class.

The protagonist of the series who is a model student for all in his school. He is the perfect man who can solve any problem with a kind yet unflappable persona. Because of this, many girls fall for him, and his male classmates resent him. Although he acts strangely sometimes (such as doing weird poses or acting sneakily), it only adds to his coolness. Sakamoto has a range of 'secret skills' which allow him to do various things, such as catch bugs or blow bubbles. It is implied that he may not actually be human.

Have you not read Hark A Vagrant?

Go read it. It's awesome. And suddenly a lot of memes will make more sense.

I enjoyed it but I understand why some people wouldn't. You can only make gags revolve around a single character so many times. Whereas things like Nichijou and Nichibros was comedic for the entire cast.

Dennis · Apr 9, 2016

Well, what is the catch?

Reading the OP it is a show/manga about a perfect guy doing things perfectly.

Sounds perfectly boring from the description.

None really. Just like OPM. Except he is prefect student.

This is just parody of prefect student just like OPM is parody of overpowered super hero

Swagamoto has an anime already? Wow that's pretty quick isn't it? Isn't it like less than 2 years old at most?

Manga is already complete.

striferser · Apr 9, 2016

Sakamoto desu ga ep.1
I expect more from the director of Gintama and Danshi Nichijou. It's a decent adaptation, but i think the director could do better than this. I hope they ramp up swag factor for the next episode. So far, i like it, but i want more than just liking it.

Emperor_EL · Apr 9, 2016

Guess we know what Bayonetta & Dante's kid would be like. This was a lot funnier than I expected.

PKrockin · Apr 10, 2016

Episode 1:

I am totally on board with this anime. Not having read the manga, this was funny as hell to me and I would keep watching just for the soundtrack. The gimmick might wear thin, sure, but if it does I'll just stop watching. No skin off my back. Not like there's a story I have to see a resolution to.

Ok first ep. It was a little disappointing on the swag scale. I will say the fire work out was funny but other stuff fell flat

I almost think that it needs to be more over the top

studyguy · Apr 11, 2016

My girlfriend and I loved it, fuck the haters.

HOLY SHIT! It makes perfect sense now.

And yes this was funnier than expected.

Dont worry, they will soon fall for Sakamoto.

Watch Da Birdie · Apr 12, 2016

I thought this was funnier than any episode of Gintama had been this season...

Only issue is I imagine the initial premise might wear thin, but this is probably a pretty short series right?

V-Faction · Apr 12, 2016

What?! They made an anime out of Sakamoto? And it's ended already? Cool.

I can't handle stuff that has more swag than I

Seigyoku · Apr 12, 2016

OP, I cannot give you enough points for the Vagrant/Sakamoto comic. You have taste.

akira28 · Apr 12, 2016

this actually got animated? wow, lol.

Sakamoto is my role model.

Watch Da Birdie · Apr 18, 2016

Episode 2 was postponed due to the recent earthquakes btw.

rrvv · Apr 23, 2016

Sakamoto 02

Smile Please :>

BassForever · Apr 23, 2016

Episode 2 consistent of my two least favorite manga chapters so it did nothing for me.

balgajo · Jun 12, 2016

Sad to see this abandoned thread. Manga reader here but I'm having a blast with the anime. Going to episode 4 right now.

Alric · Jun 12, 2016

The show is really bizarre, but really funny.

NHarmonic. · Jun 12, 2016

Cool, cooler, coolest.

Best opening of the season.

Disappointed the show didn't catch on here it's so entertaining that first episode with the stupid volleyball scene murdered it

well now I have a favorite image

Watch Da Birdie · Jun 28, 2016

Sad this thread has been dead since Episode 2, there's only one episode left to air and I gotta say this was a cute little show I'll miss---I liked it more than the recent season of Gintama if I'm gonna be honest.

PeakPointMatrix · Sep 5, 2016

Just finished this series after a friend recommended it. Honestly one of the best, funniest surprises of the year for me. The humor was really original and I was always surprised by how Sakamoto's character handled every situation. I'm surprised it only had a 12 episode run, including the Manga which has also already ended. It still felt like there was so much unexplored potential for more scenarios, possibly following Sakamoto and co until graduation. Oh well.

One question though:

was Sakamoto really leaving for the nasa program? His blonde ponytail bro cast doubt on it, to which Sakamoto neither confirmed or denied.

Surprisingly touching ending eitherway.

Highly highly recommend for anyone looking for an original slice of life comedy.

Kieli · Sep 5, 2016

Anime was disappointingly low-budget.
