Takemichi Hanagaki discovers via the news that Hinata Tachibana, his long-time girlfriend from middle school, has died while he is watching the news. A nefarious organization known as the Tokyo Manji Gang recently assassinated his one and only girlfriend in the history of the world. He lives in a run-down apartment with thin walls, and his six-years-younger boss treats him as though he’s a complete and utter idiot.

When he is at the lowest point of his life, he finds himself abruptly transported back twelve years to his middle school days. Hopeless part-timer Takemichi must rise to the top of Kanto’s most deadly delinquent gang in order to save Hinata and change the life he spent running away from the people.

It Looks Like An Isekai Anime, But It Isn’t An Isekai Anime

Viewers frequently mistake it for the isekai subgenre, which is a type of fantasy in which one or more characters are transported to another world, as they do with many other time travel series. An accidental head injury or a collision with a moving vehicle usually sets off the shift to an alternate world in isekai.

Takemichi’s first time travel experience occurs when he is pushed onto the tracks in front of an approaching train. This gives the series an isekai feel, but Tokyo Revengers isn’t considered an isekai anime because he travels to the past rather than another world.

Tokyo Manji Gang

Tokyo Manji Gang

Manjiro “Mikey” Sano and Ken “Draken” Ryuguji are the leaders of the Tokyo Manji Gang (, Tky Manji-Kai? ), also known as Toman.

Background

The majority of the members are in middle school. The gang’s code of ethics includes upholding each member’s honor and never acting in a deplorable or cowardly manner.

A few individuals have completely warped the present-day Toman of one of the alternate timelines. The gang has evolved into a full-fledged crime syndicate that commits every type of crime imaginable.

History

The gang began as a grade-school biker friend group made up of six middle-school friends from various Tokyo schools.

Toman was founded on June 19 in response to Baji’s suggestion that they form their own gang in order to combat the Black Dragons. “If one of us gets hurt, we’ll protect them… a gang that’s all for one, one for all,” their gang’s motto reads.

Mikey, Draken, Baji, Mitsuya, Pah-chin, and Kazutora formed Toman as a group of middle-schoolers. They used to ride their bikes around looking for fun and generally having a good time. They were always teasing each other and pulling pranks on each other, but it was all in good fun. Mitsuya designed the uniforms that would later become the official Toman uniform, and the iconic photo of the founders was taken in 2003.

Kazutora decides to steal a better bike for Mikey a few days before Mikey’s birthday and persuades a reluctant Baji to join them. They come close to stealing the bike, but are apprehended by the shop owner. To avoid being apprehended, Kazutora strikes him with a wrench, killing him in the process. After the ordeal, Kazutora snaps and is sent to a reform school. Toman, who had been naive and pure, had vanished.
