Tokyo Revengers, Vol. 1

4/5 Tokyo Revengers was not what I expected, mainly because I went into this one completely blind. Our Lead Takemichi lives a bland life where he never amount to much of anything. Then he sees on the news that the only girlfriend he ever had in his life was killed in a gang conflict.
Shortly after that Takemichi falls through time and winds up 12 years in the past when he was still dating the girl who was killed, in middle school. Takemichi has problems with the gangs growing up as well.
Through certain events Takemichi decides to try and save his exgirlfriends future by changing the past.
I really do enjoy these types of stories. The premise here is pretty unique in a Back to the Future meets The Departed kind of way.
I read this one as a buddy read but I may continue on with it the only thing putting me off is the length, 22 volumes and counting. At the very least I’ll take in the new anime. The over use of the “Manchu” swastika is a little weird though.
Our boy Takemichi on the cover of volume 1.
