What is the JCC? The Complete Guide to Sakamoto Days' Assassin Academy
Everything you need to know about the JCC (Japan Clear Creation). Notable alumni, dangerous curriculum, and how it connects to the Order.

In the world of Sakamoto Days, one institution stands above the rest. It isn't a government agency or a criminal syndicate—it's a school.
The JCC (Japan Clear Creation) is the premier training ground for the country's elite assassins. It is the Hogwarts for killers, the Ivy League of executioners, and the setting for the explosive Infiltration Arc.
But what exactly goes on behind its prestigious gates?
| Institution Specs | Detail |
|---|---|
| Official Name | Japan Clear Creation (JCC) |
| Purpose | Training Professional Assassins |
| Acceptance Rate | Extremely Low (Lethal Exam) |
| Notable Alumni | Taro Sakamoto, Nagumo, Rion Akao |
History & Purpose
Established 50 years ago, the JCC was created to standardize the assassin industry. Before its founding, hitmen were unorganized and chaotic. The JCC brought structure, creating a pipeline of "licensed" professionals who uphold the rules of the Japanese Assassin Association (JAA).
The campus looks like a high-end university nestled in the mountains, but every inch of it is designed for combat training.

The Curriculum: Not Just Killing
You don't just learn how to shoot a gun at the JCC. The curriculum is a rigorous mix of physical and mental conditioning:
- Espionage Department: Specializing in gathering intel and blending in (Shin Asakura's department).
- Weaponry: From assembling sniper rifles blindfolded to improvised combat.
- Poison Resistance: Building immunity to lethal toxins.
- Torture Resistance: Learning to endure pain without breaking.
Only about 10% of students actually graduate. The rest either drop out... or die trying.
Notable Faculty & Alumni
The JCC has produced the "Golden Generation"—the strongest assassins in history.
- Taro Sakamoto: The former top student and legendary hitman.
- Nagumo: The deceptive and playful Order member.
- Rion Akao: The key figure in Sakamoto and Nagumo's past.
- Uzuki (Slur): The mysterious villain who is currently targeting the JAA.
The faculty is just as terrifying. Satoda Sensei, a veteran who taught the Golden Generation, still roams the halls, protecting the school's secrets.
The "Order" Connection
The JCC serves as a feeder system for The Order, the JAA's elite strike force. The absolute top students are scouted to join this group, effectively becoming the law enforcement of the assassin world.
Understanding the JCC is key to understanding the conflict in Season 2. It is not just a school; it is the heart of the assassin society, and right now, it is a battlefield.
