The series created by Ken Wakui has really hit its stride with the release of the anime adaptation, with the manga seeing a serious boost in sales and a live-action feature-length film having already hit theaters in Japan thanks to Warner Bros Pictures. A second season of the series has yet to be confirmed at this point, but considering the popularity of the franchise and the amount of material that has yet to be adapted, it seems a surefire bet that we will see the time-traveling tale of Takemichi make a comeback. 

Twitter User Kai Kai Kitan shared a few of the images from the upcoming season finale of Tokyo Revengers’ first season, which is set to debut on September 18th, and give fans some major revelations before season one comes to a close: 

If you’re unfamiliar with the story of Tokyo Revengers, Crunchyroll’s official description of the series reads as such:

Takemichi Hanagaki is a freelancer that’s reached the absolute pits of despair in his life. He finds out that the only girlfriend he ever had, in middle school, Hinata Tachibana, had been killed by the ruthless Tokyo Manji Gang. The day after hearing about her death, he’s standing on the station platform and ends up being pushed over onto the tracks by a herd of people. He closes his eyes thinking he’s about to die but when he opens his eyes, he somehow had gone back in time 12 years. Now that he’s back living the best days of his life, Takemichi decides to get revenge on his life.”
