Disney+ Acquires Tokyo Revengers Season 2

By Nick Valdez

Tokyo Revengers is gearing up for Season 2 of the anime to hit screens next year, and Disney has announced that they have exclusively licensed the new episodes for a release around the world! Tokyo Revengers made some major waves with the first season of the series when it first launched not long ago, and it was announced soon after that a second slate of episodes would be hitting relatively soon too. Taking on the Christmas Showdown arc from Ken Wakui's original manga, now the series has found a new streaming home with its next batch of episodes when they hit.  

While there is still no set release window or date for Tokyo Revengers: Christmas Showdown Arc just yet, Disney has announced that they have obtained the worldwide exclusive license for the new season when it premieres next year. They will be streaming it on their various platforms internationally such as Disney+ and Disney+ Hotstar, but have not noted their North American platform as of this writing. You can check out the official announcement below: 

How to Watch Tokyo Revengers Season 2

There are two ways this could go. This could either be like Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, and it's released on Hulu in the United States and Disney+ everywhere else on a weekly basis as it airs, or it could be the more distressing option. There are a few seasonal anime from 2022 that had released exclusively with Disney+ in Japan (such as Summer Time Rendering) that have yet to hit the platform in the United States as of this writing. But Disney will be announcing more details at a later date.

If you wanted to watch the first season of Tokyo Revengers, you can now find it streaming with Crunchyroll. They tease the series 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 his life that he dated 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 back up, 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 by saving his girlfriend and changing himself that he'd been running away from."
