Takemichi saved Draken in the first season of Tokyo Revengers but failed to save Baji. After the Valhalla arc, he travelled back in time and joined Toman as an executive.
Seishu Inui, Hajime Kokonoi, and Hakkai Shiba, ex-members of the Black Dragon, were introduced to him at a gathering. Everyone was informed by Kisaki that Chifuyu was the traitor hiding among them. After shooting Chifuyu, Kisaki threatened Takemichi with a gun.
The first episode of Tokyo Revengers season 2 is titled “It Is What It Is.”
Tokyo Revengers season 2 episode 1: A shock for Takemichi
Kisaki accused Takemichi of betraying Toman at the start of the episode. He bid goodbye to him while crying, regretting how the latter had let him down. However, someone turned off the electricity and saved Takemichi.
When he got there, Kazutora was standing close by with long hair, and his wounded leg was wrapped. He assaulted Takemichi and told him that a few days prior, he had witnessed Toman members intimidating a woman on the streets.
He told Takemichi that Toman went in the wrong direction after Mikey vanished and Draken was imprisoned. Chifuyu picked Kazutora up when he was released from jail, giving him an update on Toman’s situation and expressing his commitment to fight corruption.
Mikey and Toman were corrupted by the money from the previous Black Dragons, and Kazutora was seeking to sever that supply line. Kisaki was supposed to be in Chifuyu’s care, but he became entangled in his efforts to save Takemichi.
Kazutora sobbedly revealed that his main concern was with saving Chifuyu and that he didn’t care for Takemichi. He also told Takemichi about a young investigator who approached Chifuyu about collaborating.
Takemichi discovers that Kisaki gave the order to assassinate Hina, but Takemichi was not there because he was a Toman executive in this universe.
He was there at the meeting Kisaki was now using as his excuse. Mikey had allegedly turned evil and was killing his former toman allies one by one, according to Kazutora.
Recently, he caused Mitsuya to vanish. They also discovered that Pah-chin and Peh-Yan had been killed.
Tokyo Revengers season 2 episode 1: The truth behind Hinata’s death
This detective was Naoto, who Kazutora had given Takemichi to. Naoto, however, chose to have him arrested. Naoto played Takemichi a recording that Chifuyu had made in which Takemichi had unintentionally directed Atsushi to murder Hinata. To protect Takemichi, Chifuyu kept it a secret from everyone, even Naoto, until his passing.
After discovering the truth, Takemichi was demoralised and persuaded Naoto to give up on trying to change the past. No matter how the future turned out, Naoto emphasised to him how much he had altered the timelines and had saved both Draken and Kazutora. Naoto asked Takemichi to travel back in time because they could no longer easily meet after the police took him to a detention facility.
Takemichi shook his hand and recalled the time that he went bowling with Hinata 12 years prior after been inspired by his words. It was his third straight clean strike, which he made. He and the guy in the alley next to him both received strikes on their subsequent turns, and they seized each other. The watchers recognised the youngster as Hakkai Shiba, who had a damaged lip and a shaved head.
Final thoughts
In the first episode of season 2 of Tokyo Revengers, Naoto surmises that Takemichi and Hinata must be connected in some way for Kisaki to have outwitted them in every possible future. Kisaki also refers to Takemichi as “my hero” before shooting him, and he displays genuine sadness at the thought of his failing to live up to that label.
This demonstrates Kisaki’s admiration and hatred of Takemichi, a complicated emotional vortex that may be the cause of his animosity toward the two former lovers.
The Black Dragons are also introduced in Tokyo Revengers season 2 episode 1, with Hakkai in particular making a big entrance. According to Season 1, Hakkai murdered the prior Black Dragon president in order to become the gang’s 11th generation president. Takemichi’s main objectives will be to comprehend Hakkai and stop this death. The subsequent episode will feature the other Shiba sibling.
The Christmas Showdown arc is primarily focused on Mitsuya and the Shiba siblings, but Chifuyu and his growing friendship with Takemichi are the true stars of this story.
This is made evident by the Tokyo Revengers season 2 opening theme, combined with the fact that Baji’s passing continues to serve as everyone’s primary source of inspiration. It’s unclear if this arc will lessen Takemichi’s remorse about his passing, but he seems to be carrying it.
