To jump to the conclusion, Tokyo Revengers’s new season (Season 2), first episode (episode 25) did not contain any review of the first season!
boss
Right. There was no special adjustment for the anime, and they went ahead and animated the immediate episode that follows the last episode from the first season (basically manga Vol. 9 content).
saori/closeeye
And so! For the people who haven’t seen Tokyo Revengers yet, and people like me, who kind of forgot the first season, we will do a recap of the anime’s season 1’s storyline!
boss/fedup
You’ve forgotten!?

Might as well watch the 2nd season after a solid recap!
Quick Review of what Tokyo Revengers is basically about!

Save an ex from her ‘Destiny of Death’!
Hanagaki Takemichi, who gains an ability to Time Leap (travel in time), solves a hidden mystery from his middle school days!

saori
Tokyo Revengers is about Hanagaki Takemichi, who gets an ability to time leap (travel in time), to travel back to his middle school days to save an ex who is destined to death!
boss
Yes, kind of rough but true. What about the cause for getting this time leap ability?
saori/question
A train...... he...... he almost got ran over by a train!!!
boss/smile
You answer it as if it’s a game show...... Present day Takemitsu hears on the news that Hina, his ex, got involved in some trouble with a criminal gang called Tokyo Manji Gang. Then, at a train station, someone pushes Takemichi into the train rail with an oncoming train from behind. When he wakes up, it turns out, Takemichi had returned to his middle school days!

You really explained a lot in one-go.
boss/fedup
I suspected it could take until sunset.
saori/question
By the way, why did Takemichi end up joining Tokyo Manji Gang upon time-traveling to his youth?
boss
The gist of it is, the organization Tokyo Manji Gang existed back in Takemichi’s middle school period too. But back then, it wasn’t a criminal gang, it was just a group of people who shared the leader Sano Manjiro (Mikey)’s ideal for ‘starting a new period for cool bad guys.’

boss
Never directing violence toward women, the weak, and the unrelated people, it used to be an organization that fights against other malicious gang groups...... but...... in the present-future, it had ‘changed’ into a criminal gang group.
saori
So Takemichi thought that solving the key to this mystery might save Hina from her eventual destiny of death!
boss
mmhm. So in the anime’s first season, Takemichi time leaps multiple times. Finally in the 6th time leap, in the final episode of the season 1 (anime’s 24th episode), he finds the one individual who practically ‘deliberately creates Hina’s death destiny’.
saori/sad
That’s right!!! That person is......!
boss
Wait! There are people who haven’t seen the 1st season yet, so keep it a secret. Anyhow, season 2’s first episode (episode 25) starts off by revealing the one individual responsible for it all. So, if you haven’t seen Tokyo Revengers yet, don’t start from season 2 first episode for sure.
And, the rest of you who have been waiting for this sequel after the 1st season ended, congratulations! Season 2 episode 1 clearly shows what we wanted to see & find out, the ‘sequel’!!!!!!

Doujinshi will Soon Exceed 10,000 in numbers!

Entering the 7th time leap in the anime version too! Would Takemichi be able to put a stop to a future that’s heading toward the worst case scenario......!?
saori/high
I sort of remember now, so I’ll start from season 2 first episode!
boss
I think you should re-watch from first season last episode (episode 24) to recall various other things (no offense intended). And so, we recommend this anime, of course for those of you waiting for it, but also people who want to start watching Tokyo Revengers from now! The manga version concluded in 2022, so when you’re done watching the anime version, try reading the manga version too!
boss/smile
Alrighty, that’s about it for today! See you at the next article! Bye~!
