Sakamoto Days opens a prison infiltration aimed at finding help for Shin’s ESP. Shin and Heisuke enter the JAA jail seeking a fortune teller reportedly held at its lowest level. The setting gives their search a direction and a series of obstacles, rather than a safe appointment with a teacher. This is the beginning of that descent, for readers following Shin’s effort to develop his particular ability.
Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.
The prison mission treats improvement as something that has to be sought in hostile territory. Shin wants help with ESP, but the person associated with that possibility is confined below him among dangerous prisoners. His and Heisuke’s exposed cover makes the approach part of the risk. The opening of this prison stretch is therefore useful for following a training objective that cannot be separated from the attempt to reach its potential teacher. The promised help does not arrive in a protected classroom. The institution holding the fortune teller stands between the student and the lesson.
