The Shiba siblings steal the spotlight in the new trailer of Tokyo Revengers Christmas Showdown Arc

Tokyo Revengers Christmas Showdown Arc is set to be released in January 2023. Liden Films has released a new trailer for the second season, featuring the new enemies set to face Tokyo Manji Gang, Black Dragons.

The main attraction of the new trailer was the two new characters - Black Dragon leader, Taiju Shiba, and his sister, Yuzuha Shiba. Both of them seem to play a vital part in the forthcoming season, as they also seemingly have a conflict brewing between themselves.

The second season is set to feature the conflict between Toman and the Black Dragons at Christmas. It looks like Yuzuha Shiba will be joining Tokyo Manji Gang as she might be plotting something against her abusive brother who seemingly even hit her in the trailer.

Kisaki and Hanma will be trying to make full use of this situation to cause commotion within Toman, while Takemichi will once again team up with Chifuyu to try and stop the events. If fans remember, Takemichi was made the Captain of Toman's 1st Division at the end of season 1, following which he and Chifuyu were shot at by Kisaki Tetta in the present time.

As for the early screenings, the first three episodes of the second season will be screened prior to the official premiere, on December 24, 2022, at the main hall of Pacifico Yokohama’s Conference Center.
