The complete 12-episode run of Haven't You Heard? I'm Sakamoto, also known as Sakamoto desu ga?, is now streaming on Crunchyroll and HIDIVE, complete with English dub and subtitle options. The series, animated by Studio Deen, centers on the titular Sakamoto, a high school student whose effortless perfection and surreal problem-solving skills leave his classmates both awestruck and infuriated.
Adapted fromami Nami's manga, the show excels at gag humor and absurd situations. Each episode presents Sakamoto with a new challenge, often orchestrated by jealous peers or bewildered teachers, which he navigates with an almost supernatural grace and flair. This episodic structure makes it an easy binge, showcasing a consistent level of meticulous, stylish comedy.
While not reaching the heights of some of the genre's most acclaimed titles, Sakamoto's 7.54 MAL score from over 400,000 voters indicates a strong reception for its unique brand of humor. Studio Deen, known for works like KonoSuba and Fate/stay night, brings a polished visual style to Sakamoto's outlandish antics.
The series is a standalone story, though it is based on the manga of the same name. Its focus on Sakamoto's immaculate persona and the comedic fallout from his interactions makes it a distinct entry in the school comedy genre, offering a refreshing dose of the absurd for viewers seeking something different.
