TOKYO REVENGERS ANIME REVIEW

Tokyo Revengers is an anime about a guy named Takemichi Hanagaki, he is 26 years old and living in a small apartment, he hates his job, and has only ever had one girlfriend. He use to be in a gang until he left during middle school due to being bullied by a stronger gang that took over his school. Since then Takemichi Hanagakirealized he ran away from his past and was given the opportunity to travel back in time.

During his adventure in the past, he meets up with his girlfriend Hinata’s brother Naoto and tells him that his sister will die 12 years in the future. Because of this Naoto decides to become a cop and save her, and so does Takemichi.

The great thing about this anime is that when he goes back in time, he actually is able to come back to the present day. Each day spent in the past is a day spent in the present time but his body is in a state of suspended animation. Due to facing his past bullies and never backing down despite getting his ass handed to him over and over again, he gains respect and

friendship of the leader of the Tokyo Manji Gang Manjirō Sano!

When coming back to the present small things start to change and gradually his actions in the past ripple into the present. The anime has a great cast of characters each with a unique set of morals and life decisions. Without giving too much away the main goal of the character is to write his wrongs from his past, to maintain his relationship with his girlfriend, and to save her from her present fate. Takemichi’s goal is to save the Tokyo Manji Gang!

ART STYLE AND ORIGINAL FACTORS

The art style for Tokyo Revengers is modern, clean, and very realistic. During fight scenes, you feel the character’s pain and during times of sadness, it’s almost like you are watching a friend cry. The anime focuses on light tones and bright colors that contrast its dark humor and also at times intense story.

All of the characters are very well-fleshed out and have unique backstories. The main character especially is such a good protagonist because you really care for him and his life, he’s the ultimate underdog.

*My only complaint is that I wish the anime had the main character go back in time and learn to protect himself even just a little because he is always getting his ass kicked, watching it makes me feel so bad for him. Also, the ending was way too much of a cliffhanger to the point that it makes you mad the way they ended it because it’s at such a good part.

How Popular Is Anime In Japan, Really?

Millions of people worldwide consume anime every day. But how prevalent is it in Japan itself? The answer: not as much as some international fans would like to believe. Anime: Japan’s geek gateway drug For millions around the world, anime is their first exposure to Japan, Japanese culture, and the Japanese language. And there’s nothing wrong with that. Anime acts as a powerful “gateway drug” to the Japanese language and culture. People learn Japanese, make Japanese friends, and even move to the country because they’re current or former anime fans. I’m no exception. I discovered anime in the 1980s when I happened upon Robotech . After I learned the show was a wild fusion of three original Japanese anime, I went down the rabbit hole to see what else was out there. Sadly, at that time, there was little available in translation. I made do with VHS tapes off of satellite of shows like Dirty Pair and Gatchaman that I bought off of people I found in th...

An Introduction to Anime

The word anime — pronounced " ah- knee-may" — is an abbreviation of the word animation . In Japan, the word is used to refer to all animation. However, outside of Japan, it has become the catch-all term for animation from Japan. For decades, anime was produced by and for Japan — a local product, with a distinct look-and-feel to not just the artwork but the storytelling, the themes, and the concepts. Over the last forty years, it has become an international phenomenon, attracting millions of fans and being translated into many languages. A whole generation of viewers in the West has grown up with it and are now passing it on to their own children. Because all things anime tend to be lumped together, it's tempting to think of anime as a genre. It isn't, at least no more than animation itself is a genre, but rather a description of how the material is produced. Anime shows, like books or movies, fall into any number of existing genres: comedy, d...

Anime: Let’s Talk About it!

With the state of events today, I think it is important to stay positive and find something fun to do. As such, with the growing popularity of online services such as Netflix and Hulu, I find it important to also introduce or entertain those doing something else – those watching Anime. By analysing its different aspects, such as its history and what makes it unique, my aim is to answer many peoples’ critiques, which argue  that anime is unrealistic, childish, or plainly  stupid. I also wish to provide the necessary information to those uninformed about the topic, which in return can allow them to try out a new long-lasting hobby. For those that are unsure about what this article’s main focus is, I will give a short rundown. Anime, as it is known in Japan, is any sort of animation, or cartoon. The name isn’t even really an abbreviation of the English word “animation”, but instead is the way that the Japa...
