What is Tokyo Revengers About?

Tokyo Revengers does a fantastic job of blending Sci-fi with high school delinquency. As strange as it sounds, landmark releases like Akira were a blend of these genres. Tokyo Revengers revolves around Takemichi Hanagaki, a 26-year-old delinquent who looks like a kid. A lot of people in the anime do but that is because of a twist. Takemichi has a little gang that he can rely on.

One day he discovers that his only girlfriend ever had been killed along with her sibling. Takemichi too dies moments after learning this but is somehow warped back in time to relive his high school days. He tried to inform people and prevent Hinata’s death. Takemichi, now able to travel through time, uses his ability to change the course of the future.

The Tokyo Revengers Season 1 was released with 24 episodes, and Tokyo Revengers Season 2 is on the way! The next season of the anime is set to release in the Winter 2023 season and will further the story covered in the animated series after Toman and Valhalla’s brawl, beginning the Black Lotus Arc.

What Will Tokyo Revengers Live Action Movie 2’s Plot Be?
