Tokyo Revengers Season 2 Release Date And Possible Spoilers!

Coming out as one of the most successful anime of spring 2021, Tokyo Revengers have broken all the records at an unprecedented rate. Who had reckoned that an anime with action mixed with time travel, a hackneyed concept would be this popular?

The show has become a nemesis of the likes of Demon Slayer, Attack on Titan, My Hero Academia.

The manga series written and illustrated by Ken Wakui serves as the source material for the anime. A total of 24 volumes have been collected and published in Kodansha’s weekly shonen magazine.

Coming back to the anime, the writing was carried out by Yasuyuki Muto with Koichi Hatsumi steering the direction. The music in the show is provided by Hiroaki Tsutsumi and the production house involved is studio Liden Films.

Tokyo Revengers Season 2 Release Date

The first season of the anime aired from April 11, 2021, to September 19 2021 consisting of 24 episodes. The last episode was seemingly a cliffhanger and owing to the overwhelming popularity of the show, many fans are ravenous for more content from the franchise.

The question mostly is, are they going to renew Tokyo Revengers for season 2?

After this manga series was adapted into an anime series, fans went crazy and it was very sure for them to search for the second installment as soon as season one finished airing. Tokyo Revengers season 2 has been confirmed by the makers but the exact release date is yet to be announced. Apart from it, reports say that the second chapter might make its release in January 2023. In addition to this, there will be a film releasing in 2023 as well.

Popularity Of The Show

The show has an outstanding rating of 8.5 on IMBD and 8.3 on MyAnimeList. The manga itself has over 35 million sold copies, making it the bestselling Kodansha manga of the year. It also was ranked among Crunchyroll’s top 10 anime list frequently.

Low Disc Scales

However, there is one anomaly in the form of low Dvd/Blu-ray sales. It was released in 6 volumes. The first volume sold only 2,942 copies. To put this number into perspective, Demon Slayer sold over 1.3 million units within this time. But this can’t alone serve as the basis of the decision for a season’s renewal. The manga alone has accrued enough profits that they would no longer have to rely upon its merch sales including Blu-Ray/DVDs.

Impediments

Tokyo Revengers Season 2 Release Date

From the above discussion, it became clear that season 2 is most likely to happen. Besides this, there are certain impediments that might affect the anime in one way or the other.

Firstly, just like Demon Slayer, the sequel to the anime could very much be followed by a feature film rather than a full-fledged season 2. Secondly, as Liden Films is overburdened with 9 anime in its itinerary, it could possibly be replaced, given the profitability of the anime and the disposition to cash on it as soon as possible. As a result, we could see the change in animation, whether qualitatively or not future shall decide.

Conclusion

In order to confirm these claims we will have to wait for a special event named Tokyo Manjikai Tachikawa Touring to be held on December 18, 2021. You will be updated in case, we get any titbit or trivia regarding the sequel of the show.

Tokyo Revengers Season 2 Story
