Tokyo Revengers Season 2, Christmas Showdown Arc could have come close to its predecessor. But it failed for faults that were not their own. The most awaited Season 2 of the anime series Tokyo Revengers, was released on January 8, 202,3 and finished airing on April 2, 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The LidenFilms<\/a> production can now be considered a definite failure. The show started strong and was about to break the \u201cSecond Season\u201d curse. But along the way, Tokyo Revengers Season 2 lost its footing and fell victim to the very curse it was supposed to break. Now where did it go wrong? Let us find out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

What You Need To Know<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tokyo Revengers is an Anime Series based on the manga of the same name by mangaka, Ken Wakui. It has released 31 volumes, consisting of 278 chapters. The manga was adapted into an Anime Television Series, An Original Net Animation called ChibiReve, A Live Action Film, a spin-off and an official parody manga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The series follows Hanagaki Takemichi, a seeming loser who was once a delinquent back in his middle school days. Due to a misunderstanding, Takemichi and his friends end up on the wrong side of the Tokyo Manjiro Gang, also known as Toman. Being bullied, traumatized and abused by them on a daily basis, Takemichi lost his self-confidence, switched places and spent the rest of his life apologizing to everyone for every little and no fault at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12 years later, now an adult and a part-timer, Takemichi learns that his ex-girlfriend from his middle school, Hinata Tachibana was killed alongside her brother, Naoto by Toman, now an organized crime syndicate. On his way home from work, Takemichi was pushed by someone in front of the train. Before the train hit him, he went 12 years into the past. Despite the past being seemingly unchanged, Takemichi was able to warn Hina\u2019s brother about the future and suddenly returned to the present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Character Chronicles<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tokyo Revengers mostly centers on Takemichi who navigates his way into the Toman, from being used as their toy for one of the members of the gang to becoming a Squad Captain. It is a Shonen Anime with all the necessary Tropes that somehow went under my radar. Tokyo Revengers gained a strong following and was liked by many. And it also had a unique yet confusing concept towards time travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another one of the strengths of Tokyo Revengers is the characters. We have our protagonist, Hanagaki Takemichi who is known to everyone as the Crybaby Hero. Despite not being the most powerful, and always having his face beaten to a pulp, you can\u2019t bring yourself to hate him. Instead, you root for him, cheer for him, and rejoice when he is able to overcome a challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then there\u2019s Mikey. Named Majiro Sano, the leader and founder of Toman and the most overpowered character in the series. If Saitama is One Punch Man, Mikey is One Kick Man! Because there is no foe that he can\u2019t take down with one kick. Then we have Draken, a founding member of Toman and Mikey\u2019s Right-hand man. Being a tall giant and the same age as Mikey, he is a very mature character and is Mikey\u2019s moral support and the barrier that keeps him from being a criminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, it wouldn\u2019t be a Shonen Anime if there are no antagonists. And the one holding that important mante is Kisaki Tetta. A man of mystery and a face that you want to desperately punch, Kisaki\u2019s motive is unclear. However, his influence is no joke. This man had not one, not two, but three organizations under him including Toman. And when Toman was recognized as a crime syndicate, he was known as Mikey\u2019s right-hand and co-founder. He is someone who easily manipulates and corrupts people and is the one responsible for Hinata\u2019s death in multiple timelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tokyo Revengers Season 2, Christmas Showdown<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tokyo Revengers Season 2 is titled, \u201cTokyo Revengers: Christmas Showdown.\u201d The story takes place from where it left off. In the current present timeline, Takemichi witnesses the death of Chifuyu at the hands of Kisaki. Just as he was about to be killed off, Takemichi is rescued by someone he saved in the past, it was Kazutora. From him, Takemichi learns of the changes he made to the past, and what exactly he needs to change in order to prevent the timeline from existing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Takemichi reunites with Naoto and learns some heartbreaking truths that make him want to give up. But Naoto reminds him of the changes he had made and the lives that he had changed with his abilities. So Takemichi decides to give it another shot. Back in the past, Takemichi meets with the Vice-Captain of Squad 2, Shiba Hakkai who becomes the leader of the Black Dragon Gang, which is one of the core reasons why Toman became corrupted. Takemichi befriends him and gets to know about his connections with the Black Dragon Gang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It turns out, Shiba Hakkai is the younger brother to the Black Dragon leader, Shiba Taiju, who abuses him on a regular basis, to the point that Hakkai freezes up in front of him. Takemichi knows the future that Hakkai becomes the leader after killing his elder brother, for reasons unknown and has it absorbed under Toman. With the knowledge he has gained from the future, Takemichi takes it upon himself to prevent Hakkai from killing his older brother to prevent Toman from being corrupted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
