While Ken Wakui's Tokyo Revengers manga series may be coming to an end, there is plenty of new content for the series on the way.According to the Manga Mogura RE Twitter account, seven new Tokyo Revengers books will drop on Jan. 17, 2023, with the most notable being the final volume of the manga. The other titles include full-color versions of Tokyo Revengers Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 and two short stories, an updated character guide, Vol. 2 of the spin-off series Letter from Baji Keisuke and Vol. 5 of Todai Revengers.
Wakui published the first chapter of his iconic manga series in Kodansha's Weekly ShÅnen Magazine in March 2017, and the final chapter will appear in the Nov. 16 issue of the magazine. The story follows Takemichi Hanagaki, a young adult burnt out on life. However, when he finds himself transported back in time to his high school years, he uses his knowledge of future events to correct the mistakes of his past and (hopefully) save the life of his childhood sweetheart, Hinata Tachibana, by infiltrating the Tokyo Manji gang.
With over 65 million copies in circulation globally as of July 2022, Tokyo Revengers is Kodansha's most successful manga since Hajime Isayama's post-apocalyptic fantasy series Attack on Titan. Moreover, Wakui's story has exceedingly well with critics; in 2020, for example, it won the shÅnen category at the 44th Kodansha Manga Awards.
Tokyo Revengers Has Upcoming Projects
The seven new books aren't the only upcoming Tokyo Revengers content scheduled for a January 2023 release; the second season of the anime adaptation by Liden Films (Call of the Night) will also premiere that month. The new season will depict the Christmas Showdown arc from the manga and introduce multiple new characters. This character list includes Kokonoi Hajime, voiced by Platinum End's Natsuki Hanae, and Inui Seisyu, played by Komi Can't Communicate's Junya Enoki.
Moreover, YÅ«ki Shin (Edens Zero) and Azumi Waki (My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!) have reprised their respective roles as Takemichi and Hinata for Tokyo Revengers: Christmas Showdown. Several members of Season 1's creative team have also returned, like director Koichi Hatsumi (Berserk: The Golden Age Arc I - The Egg of the King), composer Hiroaki Tsutsumi (My Senpai Is Annoying) and character designers Keiko ÅŒta (Ace Attorney) and Kenichi ÅŒnuki (My Hero Academia).
Wakui's Tokyo Revengers manga is available on MangaPlaza, and the anime's first season is available to stream on Crunchyroll.
