Shin settles into life at the Sakamoto family store, only for a hijacked bus to put the household's strict no-killing code to the test. The second chapter of Sakamoto Days introduces the family rules through a chaotic roadside rescue.
Summary
Newly hired at the convenience store, Shin becomes part of the Sakamoto household just as Aoi presses her husband over whether he has slipped back into his old killing ways. She warns that breaking the family code would spell the end of their marriage, which leaves a puzzled Shin asking what those rules actually are. The lesson arrives in practice when Aoi is swept up in a bus hijacking.
Key Events
Taro and Shin rush to intervene, with Taro hiding his face behind a pig mask he swipes from a nearby child. Rather than harming anyone, he brings the runaway bus to a halt using only a road sign, though the vehicle's front end is completely wrecked by the impact. The rescue quietly puts the household's guiding principle, protecting others without taking a life, on display.
