Tokyo Revengers Characters

Hinata Tachibana

Takemichi's girlfriend

Hina is Takemichi's middle-school girlfriend: kind, brave and much tougher than she looks, ready to slap a gang leader if he hurts someone she cares about. Her death in each bad future is the reason Takemichi keeps leaping. She's more than a prize to be rescued; her faith in him is what keeps him trying.

Voice

Azumi Waki (JP)

Naoto Tachibana

Hina's brother · Detective

Naoto is Hina's younger brother. In the present he's a police detective investigating Toman, and the handshake between him and Takemichi is the trigger for every time leap. He's analytical and serious where Takemichi is emotional, and he's the one who works out what needs to change in each timeline.

Atsushi Sendo (Akkun)

Takemichi's best friend

Akkun is the leader of Takemichi's middle-school friend group, with a dramatic red pompadour and a strong sense of loyalty. In the first future Takemichi visits, Akkun has been dragged into Toman's criminal world, and his fate there is one of the first signs of how badly things have gone wrong.

The Mizo Middle Five

Takuya, Makoto and Yamagishi

Takemichi's friends from Mizo Middle School are small-time delinquents with big talk. Takuya is the gentle, physically weak one; Makoto is the loud joker; Yamagishi is the gossip who somehow knows everything about every gang in Tokyo. They're comic relief most of the time, and their loyalty to Takemichi grounds the story.

Ken Ryuguji (Draken)

Toman vice president · Founder

Draken is tall, with a dragon tattoo on his temple and a much better head than his looks suggest. He's Mikey's closest friend and his moral anchor, the one who reminds him what Toman was meant to be. Takemichi learns early that protecting Draken is the key to keeping Mikey from falling apart.

Voice

Tatsuhisa Suzuki (JP)

Keisuke Baji

1st Division captain · Founder

Baji is wild, reckless and fiercely loyal, a founding member who leaves Toman for the rival gang Valhalla for reasons he won't explain. He's repeating a year at school, fights with his whole heart, and is devoted to his friends to a fault. His story is the centre of the Bloody Halloween arc and one of the most remembered in the series.

Chifuyu Matsuno

1st Division vice-captain

Chifuyu is Baji's devoted vice-captain and later Takemichi's partner. He's quick to fight but clear-headed, and he becomes the one person in the past Takemichi tells about his time leaps. Their friendship is the steadiest thing in the series, and Chifuyu's faith in Takemichi carries him through some of his worst moments.

Takashi Mitsuya

2nd Division captain · Founder

Mitsuya is the calm, responsible founder who looks after his little sisters, runs his school's handicraft club and designs Toman's uniforms. He's one of the gang's best fighters and one of its most level-headed voices. He's also the closest thing Toman has to a big brother for the younger members.

Hakkai Shiba

2nd Division vice-captain

Hakkai is huge, friendly and terrified of girls, which is a running joke. He's also living under the shadow of his violent older brother Taiju, the leader of Black Dragon. The Christmas Showdown arc is built around Hakkai's plan to free himself and his sister Yuzuha from Taiju.

Haruki Hayashida (Pah-chin)

3rd Division captain · Founder

Pah-chin is a blunt, hot-headed captain who would do anything for his friends. When a rival gang hurts people close to him, he takes matters into his own hands in a way that sets the whole Moebius conflict in motion. Toman's response to what he does exposes the first cracks in the gang.

Ryohei Hayashi (Peh-yan)

3rd Division vice-captain

Peh-yan is Pah-chin's best friend and vice-captain. His desperation to help Pah-chin makes him easy to manipulate, and someone does exactly that during the Moebius arc. He's a good example of how the series' villains turn loyalty into a weapon.

Nahoya and Soya Kawata

4th Division captain and vice-captain

The Kawata twins are known as Smiley and Angry. Nahoya (Smiley) always smiles, even mid-fight, and Soya (Angry) always looks furious, though he's actually the gentler of the two. They run a ramen shop with their family and lead the 4th Division together.

Yasuhiro Muto (Mucho)

5th Division captain

Mucho leads Toman's 5th Division, the unit that handles internal discipline. He's large, quiet and intimidating, and his loyalties turn out to be more complicated than they look during the Tenjiku arc.

Haruchiyo Sanzu

5th Division vice-captain

Sanzu wears a mask in the early arcs and says very little. He has a long history with the Sano family, and in the later story he becomes one of the most unsettling figures in Mikey's orbit.

Kazutora Hanemiya

Founder · Valhalla

Kazutora was one of Toman's six founding members, with a tiger tattoo on his neck and a fragile, unstable mind. A crime he committed as a boy, and Mikey's reaction to it, poisoned his relationship with the gang. He joins Valhalla full of resentment, and his arc is one of the darkest and most sympathetic in the series.

Shuji Hanma

Kisaki's partner

Hanma is tall, lazy-eyed and bored by everything except a good fight. He has the words "sin" and "punishment" tattooed on the backs of his hands and serves as Kisaki's muscle, moving between gangs as his partner's plans require. He's easygoing in a way that makes him harder to read than Kisaki.

Nagahiro Osanai

Leader of Moebius

Osanai leads Moebius, an older and more vicious gang that controls the Shinjuku area. His gang's attack on people close to Pah-chin starts the first major conflict. He's a straightforward thug, and that makes him a useful tool for someone smarter.

Taiju Shiba

Leader of Black Dragon (10th generation)

Taiju is Hakkai and Yuzuha's older brother, a brutal fighter who rules his gang and his family through violence. He leads Black Dragon, a gang that once meant something to the Sano family. His clash with Toman in the Christmas Showdown is as much a family reckoning as a gang war.

Yuzuha Shiba

Hakkai's older sister

Yuzuha is the middle Shiba sibling, tough and protective of Hakkai. She's spent years shielding him from Taiju, and her own decision to stand up to their brother is the turning point of the Christmas Showdown arc.

Seishu Inui and Hajime Kokonoi

Black Dragon officers

Inupi and Koko are childhood friends in Black Dragon. Inupi is obsessed with the gang's earlier, nobler generations, and Koko is a gifted money-maker whose talent for raising cash makes every gang want him. Both are bound up with the memory of someone they lost, and both play important parts after the Christmas Showdown.

Izana Kurokawa

Leader of Tenjiku

Izana is the leader of Tenjiku, a gang made up of the most dangerous delinquents in Yokohama. He's connected to the Sano family through Shinichiro, and his bitterness toward Mikey runs deep. He's polite, charismatic and among the strongest fighters in the series.

Kakucho

Tenjiku officer · Takemichi's childhood friend

Kakucho was Takemichi's friend in elementary school, when Takemichi was a braver kid than he remembers being. Now he's Izana's loyal right hand, scarred and serious. His reunion with Takemichi on opposite sides is one of the Tenjiku arc's most effective threads.

Ran and Rindo Haitani

Tenjiku executives

The Haitani brothers are stylish, well-known delinquents from Roppongi who fight as a cruel, efficient pair. Ran is the older, more relaxed one; Rindo is quicker to anger. They're two of the Tenjiku fighters who show how far beyond Toman's league that gang is at first.

Valhalla

Rival gang of the Bloody Halloween arc

Valhalla is a newer gang built around Hanma and Kazutora, and its war with Toman on Halloween is the centrepiece of the first season. It's less a gang with its own identity than a stage for Kisaki's plans and the founders' unresolved past.

Shinichiro Sano

Mikey's late older brother

Shinichiro was a friendly, hopeless-with-girls motorbike shop owner and the founder of the first generation of Black Dragon. He died before the story begins, but almost every arc circles back to him: his death shapes Mikey, Kazutora, Izana and Black Dragon alike.

Emma Sano

Mikey's younger sister

Emma is cheerful, fashionable and openly in love with Draken, who is slow to admit he feels the same. She's close friends with Hina and is one of the few people who can boss Mikey around.
