In Spring 2021, the popular shounen action anime Tokyo Revengers will return with its highly anticipated sequel, Tokyo Revengers Season 2.
The first season finished a few months ago, and fans are already itching for a new episode. So, when can fans expect to see more episodes of this show in the future? The following information should help:
The manga series Tokyo Revengers, from author Ken Wakui, was adapted into the anime Tokyo Revengers in Japan. The manga was turned into an anime by Studio Liden Films, which aired 24 episodes from April 11 to September 19 of the following year.
Muse Asia and Crunchyroll obtained North American and Asian broadcasting rights to the show, which was lauded by fans for its striking character design and engaging plot.
Tokyo Revengers will have a second season.
This article was written before the anime was renewed for a second season by either Liden Films or publisher Kodansha. Tokyo Revengers did not have a season 2 after the first season’s conclusion like many other shows.
A new season of anime might be renewed for years in advance because the decision is based on numerous criteria. Fortunately, there are a few key characteristics that can help determine whether or not a new season will begin:
Does Tokyo Revengers’ Second Season have enough material?
There are 24 collected volumes of Wakui’s manga published by Kadokawa under their Weekly Shonen Magazine. A new book comes out every 3-4 months since the serialization began on March 1, 2017. It ended on “A Cry Baby,” which was the 73rd chapter of anime’s first season.
the sale of comic books
Before you go any further, you should know that the vast majority of anime produced nowadays is done to help promote and increase the sales of the original work (in this case, manga).
Manga volume and merchandise sales make the majority of their revenue, with advertising payments, online streaming licensing, and Blu-ray sales providing the remainder.
By selling 16,532,610 copies, Revengers has surpassed Attack on Titan’s 2013 sales record of 15,933,801 and has become the third highest-selling manga of 2021 so far and the best-selling Kodansha manga within a year.
The manga also won the Shonen Category of the 44th Kodansha Manga Award in 2020.
The anime’s premiere in Japan was one of the most popular shows of the Spring 2021 season, with high ratings on popular streaming platforms like D-Anime Store and AbemaTv. Over 14,000 people watched the inaugural episode on NicoVideo, Japan’s version of YouTube and the site’s most popular host.
Live-Action Film of Tokyo Revengers
The manga was translated into a 24-episode anime series and a 2-hour live-action feature, both of which did well. Tsutomu Hanabusa directed and wrote the film, which premiered on July 9, 2021.
Rurouni Kenshin: The Final was the top-grossing live-action picture in 2021 with a total of $39,563,158, and this is the 28th highest-grossing film in Japan for 2021.
The release date for Tokyo Revengers Season 2
No official announcement has yet been made about Tokyo Revengers getting a second season. Still, if it does, the new season will most likely premiere in early 2023, given season 1 ran from April 11 to September 19 of 2021, and recent seasons often take between one and two years to construct.
