Recap of Tokyo Revengers season 2 episode 1

In Tokyo Revengers season 2 episode 1, Kazutora rescued Takemichi from Kisaki’s grasp. He informed the time-leaper about Toman’s corruption-ridden state due to Mikey’s absence and Black Dragon’s money. Chifuyu had planned to bring down Kisaki, but he got caught up trying to save Takemichi. Kazutora had been trying to stop the cash flow from the former Black Dragon members.

Kazutora then delivered Takemichi to Naoto, who had been collaborating with him and Chifuyu. Naoto arrested Takemichi and showed him a video that Chifuyu had recorded. In it, Takemichi unknowingly gave Atsushi the order to kill Hinata. Chifuyu had kept this recording hidden until his last breath in order to protect his partner.

Takemichi was heartbroken and resigned after learning this, but Naoto urged him to continue changing the past. He sent Takemichi back in time, and Takemichi awoke to find himself in a bowling alley with Hinata. Here, he met Hakkai Shiba, who would lead the 11th generation of the Black Dragons in the future.

Although readers have met them both in season one’s final episode, nothing had been revealed about them. Both characters will play important roles in this arc and the next few arcs as well.

Finally, the episode may also introduce Taiju Shiba. Taiju is the villain of this arc and the oldest Shiba sibling. He is the current head of the 10th generation of the Black Dragon Gang. Takemichi learned from Kazutora that Hakkai had killed the previous leader of the Black Dragons to obtain the position, but Tokyo Revengers season 2 episode 2 will reveal how deep the truth of the incident goes.
