A quick summary of Sakamoto Days chapter 127

Kumanomi (Image via Yuto Suzuki/Shueisha)

The previous chapter opened with Kumanomi lying on the ground, seemingly knocked out by Heisuke's bullet and Hyo's punch. By the time Hyo realized the battle was not over, it was already too late. Kumanomi destroyed his other eye by creating another coil gun and shooting a bullet.

Next, she stopped two of Heisuke's bullets and landed a few hits on him. When Heisuke had a chance to ask why she was after JAA, Kumanomi explained that it was because of one of their failed schemes called Al-Kamar. JAA forcefully turned orphans into assassins for the Order. Thus, orphans like Kumanomi greatly resented this.

Heisuke then questioned why she involved innocent civilians in such matters, to which Kumanomi replied that she did not care. To make her point, she deflected one of Heisuke's bullets to strike a passerby. She claimed that by killing that civilian, she and Heisuke were now alike.

As Heisuke stood stunned, Hyo reappeared and flung him away. Despite losing both his eyes and having a bullet lodged in his brain, Hyo was determined to keep fighting.

Hyo and Kumanomi's battle took them to the dock, where they both plunged into the water. Underwater, Kumanomi used the docked boats' propellers to strike Hyo. However, knowing that time was running out for him, Hyo decided to take Kumanomi down with him by drowning.

The chapter ended with Kumanomi climbing back onto the dock, but not unscathed. It was revealed that she had to sacrifice her right arm to escape Hyo's iron grip.

What to expect from the upcoming Sakamoto Days chapter 128?

While Kumanomi has lost the ability to create coil guns with both her arms, Heisuke is at an even greater disadvantage. It is known to readers of the series that he is utterly inept in any form of combat other than shooting. Moreover, a sniper is vulnerable when an opponent gets too close, something that Kumanomi had previously tried to exploit.

When Hyo was alive, Heisuke had no worries as his formidable partner possessed immense power and skill to handle enemies in close quarters. However, with Hyo no longer by his side, Heisuke may struggle to confront Kumanomi.

However, it has been a long time since there has been any communication between Heisuke and his troupe. So, Sakamoto and the rest of the group might grow concerned and come looking for him. Thus, things are likely to get interesting in Sakamoto Days chapter 128.
