Fans must be devastated to see a masterpiece come to an end, but let me tell you that the ending will not be disappointing.
Is the final arc released?
The Weekly Shonen Magazine Issue 47, 2022 disclosed the date of the final chapter of Tokyo Revengers, the last chapter was released on November 16, 2022.
The last arc of Tokyo Revengers is called the Final Arc which follows Takemichi, who returned to the present and discovered that his friends are alive and successful, however, Mikey, who didn’t even contact any of his friends for about 12 years, has created a new gang which is called Bonten.
In the Final arc, it’s also disclosed that Takemichi will no longer be able to time leap, however, he unintentionally time leaps again 10 years into the past to 2008, when he tries to save Mikey from jumping off a building.
Now, Takemichi is in high school, where he discovers that as the famous Tokyo Manji Gang has ended, there is a power struggle going on among Rokuhara Tandai, Brahman, and Kanto Manji which is Mikey’s new gang.
In order to get close to Mikey, Takemichi becomes a member of Brahman, which is led by Senju Kawaragi. After this, Takemichi gets the ability to see into the future.
In addition, on July 7, 2008, Rokuhara Tandai attacks Brahman, well specifically Takemichi and Senju. While Takemichi protects Senju and prevents his death, Draken, unfortunately, gets killed as he was protecting them, which resulted in a fight, knowns as the Battle of the Three Deities, that was among all the three gangs.
This brawl ends in Mikey Killing South, who is the leader of the Rokuhara Tandai, and of course the gang of Mikey, Kanto Manji gang wins and also absorbs Rokuhara Tandai. After, Senju puts an end to the Brahman as to prevent Mikey from killing Takemichi.
One month later, Takemichi establishes the Tokyo Manji Gang again to challenge the Kanto Manji Gang to combat on the 9th of September. In the fight, Sanzu tries to drive a train onto the battlefield in order to kill the entire Tokyo Manji Gang, which Takemichi prevents from happening, but still, Kakucho gets killed in the process.
Later when Takemichi confronts Mikey, Mikey discloses that he had died in the present timeline, for which Shinichiro steals the ability to travel in time from a homeless guy to travel to the past to save Mikey. However, that provokes a curse, which is manifested in the form of violent behavior which leads to the death of Shinichiro, and Takemichi inheriting the power.
Well, in the end, Takemichi and Mikey travel back to 1998 with their memories still intact and work together to avert the previous tragedies of timelines and unite the gangs in Japan for 11 years, which auspiciously maintains a peaceful timeline.
Tokyo Revengers includes a total of five arcs: First arc, Valhalla or Bloody Halloween arc, Black Dragons or Christmas Showdown arc, Tenjiku arc, and Final arc.
All the arcs of Tokyo Revengers were no less than a chef’s kiss, the development of Takemichi and Mikey’s relationship is purely remarkable. Takemichi and Mikey are completely different, but this is what made their friendship so extraordinary.
The fact that even though Takemichi wasn’t strong enough to fight, he never chickened out, which is what Mikey liked. Mikey on the other hand may be shorter than other gang members, but no one can withstand his “nuclear kicks“.
It’s a shame to see Tokyo Revengers end, but it gave us one of the best series, which included everything that a viewer would like to see.
What would be the expected ending for this Anime?
Tokyo Revengers has given us one of the most interesting crime mysteries of all time, moreover, all the relationships that were developed through the series will always be the biggest part of the show.
Unfortunately, as Tokyo Revengers is coming to an end, the ending has been disclosed. After 278 chapters, in which we enjoyed the jaw-dropping action and suspense that kept us up at night, Tokyo Revengers has given us a happy ending.
Moreover, after a lot of drama, Mikey and Takemichi travel to 1998 where they unite all the gangs across Japan, which results in a peaceful timeline.
However, that doesn’t come easy, Takemichi has to go through a lot of difficulties, in fact, he has to save Mikey from killing himself.
The Final arc has more action than crime or mystery, most of the time characters are fighting with each other over power and authority, which isn’t boring, it’s quite interesting actually, you get to see those cool characters like Mikey fight.

Should the readers watch this Anime in order?
Anime is an animation work created in Japan, there are a bunch of Anime series like Tokyo Revengers which is an adaptation of the Manga series.
Well, Anime is supposed to be watched in order because then it would be difficult to follow the plot. In Anime series, there’re arcs that you can follow, for instance, the arcs of Tokyo Revengers’ order are:

Furthermore, there’re also anime movies as well as series which all are adapted from the Manga series. For example, there’re 4 seasons of Attack On Titan, 6 movies, and 2 parts of Live-Action.
Now it’s up to you, whether you watch the series first or the movies, however, I would suggest you watch what came first.
In Attack On Titan (2013) series came first, so I’d recommend you first watch that and then the movies in chronological order.
If we talk about whether to read Manga first or watch anime, then it’s a whole different story. While some people prefer to read Manga first as they like to know what is going to happen, others prefer to watch anime first as they like to see what changes are made.
