Taro Sakamoto was the deadliest hit man alive until he fell in love, retired, and settled down to run a neighborhood convenience store. Now soft around the middle and sworn off killing, he defends his quiet family life against the assassins who keep turning up at his door, backed by a store crew of former killers. Yuto Suzuki's action-comedy runs in Weekly Shonen Jump, pairing slapstick domestic comedy with elaborately choreographed fight sequences.
