Japanese late-night schedules often use times beyond 24:00 to describe programming associated with the previous evening. Here, 24:00 JST on July 14 means the midnight boundary: 00:00 JST on July 15 by ordinary calendar notation. The announced premiere date remains July 14.
What time was episode 12 on Netflix?
Netflix’s episode 12 release was timed to coincide with the Japanese TV broadcast. The official schedule does not establish one exact Netflix clock time for every country or territory. Check the episode listing in your regional Netflix catalog for its local availability; do not assume that 24:00 JST translates to the same calendar date everywhere.

Where can you watch episode 12?
Netflix
Netflix is the named streaming platform for the simultaneous episode 12 release. Its official SAKAMOTO DAYS title page lists the series as a 2025 Netflix series. Availability and local timing should be checked in the catalog for your territory.
Other streaming services
The official schedule says other services begin streaming after the television broadcast, with start dates varying by service. It does not provide a single date or time that applies to every service, so check the specific platform’s listing.

Blu-ray
For a physical release, SAKAMOTO DAYS Blu-ray volume 4 includes episodes 12–14 and was released September 24, 2025. The product page also lists retailer-specific bonus items.
Why episode 12 had a different release pattern
The official schedule describes Netflix’s usual arrangement for Part 2 as one-episode-early streaming, but marks episode 12 as the exception: “※12話のみTV放送と同時に配信,” meaning “Episode 12 only is distributed at the same time as the TV broadcast.” That is why episode 12 did not follow the usual one-episode-early pattern.
Related Sakamoto Days releases
The anime’s Blu-ray volume 4 groups episodes 12–14 together. For the manga, the official comics catalog lists volumes 1–22, including volume 12.
For official Part 2 context, Netflix Tudum’s Part 2 feature describes the premise: retired legendary hitman Taro Sakamoto returns to action to protect his family.
