What is the history of Tokyo Revengers?

Takemichi is the archetype of the young person who has not succeeded in life. Aged 26, he spends his time accumulating odd jobs. He wanders, like a soul in pain, without knowing exactly where life will lead him. One evening, he learns by chance of the death of the only girlfriend of his dreary existence… The young woman and her brother were the collateral victims of a settling of scores. Completely destroyed, he finds himself following a fatal accident, transported to his past… Is this the perfect opportunity for him to make a difference? Chronicle: Tokyo Revengers, a new chance!

Tokyo Revengers or the return of the manga Furyo

Published by Glénat and relatively unknown in France, the manga Tokyo Revengers marks the return of a style familiar to the Japanese. Indeed, in view of the plot, the manga is characterized as a Furyo. At first glance, this word may seem quite barbaric to you. However, you must have seen at least one work of this style. Great Teacher Onizuka (GTO) is the worthy representative of furyo manga in Japan, but especially in France. The term Furyo literally means young scum in Japanese. Highly represented in Japanese manga, "these scum" are recognizable, because they hang out in gangs and often sport banana cuts. For example, in Young GTO, Onizuka had this haircut.

An authentic story

Several elements are necessary to make a work authentic, credible. For example, we can play on references that will inevitably evoke something in the collective imagination. In the basketball manga Slam Dunk, Inoue is inspired by real moments that took place in the NBA, the basketball league. Or Kishimoto, who is inspired by Japanese mythology for Naruto. In the case of Tokyo Revengers, who better than a former Furyo to portray the stories that reign in this environment? Indeed, Ken Wakui is a former scum now converted into a manga artist. And you have to believe that it succeeds given the success of his manga. In addition, time travel adds a fantasy dimension and flirts with science fiction. This makes sense for him who lives a little in several eras. With his experience as a former thug, he can bring an external but also intrusive vision on this phenomenon.

Little info about the anime

In addition, if fans of the manga are eager to see Tokyo Revengers adapted into anime, we do not necessarily know much about the anime. Key information includes: The anime is expected to be available by April 2021. The studio behind the animation would be Liden Films, a studio that has already worked on big pieces such as The Arslan Chronicles or the OAVs of Terraformars. Anyway, the growing popularity of this manga is enough on its own. Finally, it will be necessary to take his trouble in patience before seeing the first episode of Tokyo Revengers on the French territory. As a reminder, the anime will be released in April 2021. While waiting for the big day, here is the trailer!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9M34VgTfzY&ab_channel=%E3%81%BD%E3%81%AB%E3%81%8D%E3%82%83%E3%82%93-AnimePONYCANYON
