Toman was originally created by six close friends who wanted a place where they could protect each other and enjoy the freedom and brotherhood of biker culture. Early on, it wasn’t built around crime or domination; it emphasized loyalty and protecting its members.

Overview

Manjiro Sano, better known as Mikey, is a founding member and the leader of the Tokyo Manji Gang. Known throughout the delinquent world as the Invincible Mikey, he is a remarkably powerful fighter whose charisma and leadership make him a formidable presence among both allies and rivals.

Mikey is a teenager of below-average height with piercing black eyes and long blonde hair, which he typically ties into a small ponytail at the top of his head while leaving the sides loose.

Skills and Abilities

Authority and Leadership

As Toman’s leader, Mikey commands tremendous respect and possesses considerable authority over its members. His presence inspires loyalty and determination, strengthening the gang’s unity and making it a formidable force against rival groups.

His leadership extends beyond his fighting ability. Mikey can bring people together under a shared vision, and his dream is to create a new era for delinquents.

Fighting Prowess

Mikey is widely regarded as one of the strongest fighters in the Tokyo Revengers series. His nickname, Invincible Mikey, reflects his reputation throughout the delinquent world.

He can incapacitate experienced gang members with a single kick, often leaving opponents astonished by the amount of strength he possesses despite his small stature.

Mikey favors kicks over punches, using his powerful legs to compensate for his height disadvantage. His kicks are exceptionally destructive and have been shown to damage vehicles. His speed, precision, and raw power make him a dangerous opponent even against multiple experienced fighters.

His physical abilities are so extraordinary that a combined effort from several formidable fighters, including Draken, Mitsuya, Chifuyu, and Peh-yan, has been unable to defeat him under certain circumstances.

Martial Arts

Unlike many delinquents, Mikey possesses formal martial arts training. He learned karate from his grandfather, who operates a dojo, and demonstrated exceptional talent from a young age.

His training contributed to his remarkable fighting instincts, flexibility, balance, and reflexes.

Mikey’s signature finishing move is a high, fast roundhouse kick aimed at an opponent’s head, particularly the temple. Executed with extraordinary speed, the attack can catch opponents off guard and knock them unconscious almost instantly. He can perform the technique with either leg.

Endurance and Resilience

Mikey possesses remarkable endurance and the ability to continue fighting after sustaining serious blows. Attacks that would incapacitate ordinary fighters often fail to stop him for long.

Even when knocked unconscious, he has demonstrated the ability to recover relatively quickly. His offensive capabilities can remain formidable despite considerable injuries, allowing him to overwhelm opponents when they believe he has already been defeated.

Charisma

Mikey’s charisma is one of his greatest strengths. He naturally attracts loyalty, earns the respect of rival gang leaders, and inspires people to follow him.

His influence gives him the potential to unite large numbers of delinquents beneath a single banner. However, this same influence can become dangerous when exploited by others. In darker timelines, people manipulate his authority and charisma to build powerful criminal organizations while using him as the face of their ambitions.

Intuition

Mikey possesses an unusually keen sense of intuition that sometimes appears almost supernatural.

When he first encounters Takemichi, he senses that there is something unusual about him, even though he cannot fully understand Takemichi’s circumstances.

Mikey can also sense when Takemichi has traveled through time again, suggesting an unusual awareness of changes connected to their relationship.

His strong bonds with his friends appear to strengthen this intuition. He has correctly anticipated their actions and located them when they were in danger. Mikey also believes that the spirits of his deceased brother, Shinichiro, and his friend Baji have guided him on certain occasions.

Mechanical Knowledge

Having grown up alongside his older brother Shinichiro, an accomplished mechanic, Mikey possesses considerable knowledge of motorcycles and machinery.

He is capable of repairing motorcycles, assembling their components, and understanding how their mechanical systems work.

Personal Preferences and Trivia

• Favorite Foods: Dorayaki, omurice served with a small flag on top, and taiyaki filled with sweet red-bean paste.

Daily Routine

On a typical school day, Draken wakes Mikey up and gets him to attend school, where Mikey is primarily interested in the lunch service. He spends much of his time sleeping during class and even takes naps during lunch breaks.

After school, Mikey rides his motorcycle with Draken throughout the night, eventually attending Toman’s gatherings and rallies.

• Despite his responsibilities as a gang leader, Mikey’s love of sleeping, food, and spending time with his friends reveals the childish side of his personality that remains beneath his intimidating reputation.

Occupation and Affiliations

• Occupation: Gang member

• Affiliation: Tokyo Manji Gang (Toman)

Overview

Takemichi Hanagaki, better known as Takemitchy, is a central character in Tokyo Revengers. After learning that his former girlfriend, Hinata Tachibana, and her younger brother, Naoto Tachibana, have been killed by a criminal organization connected to the Tokyo Manji Gang, Takemichi discovers that he possesses the ability to travel twelve years into the past.

Following an encounter with Naoto that triggers his time-leaping ability, Takemichi becomes determined to change the future and save Hinata from her tragic fate. As he repeatedly travels between the past and present, he uncovers Toman’s history and discovers how the gang eventually becomes connected to the criminal underworld.

Although Takemichi initially struggles with his own shortcomings, his determination to protect his loved ones gradually transforms him into one of the most important figures in Toman’s history.

Appearance

Takemichi is an average-height teenager with a light complexion, -blonde hair, and blue-gray eyes. He usually styles his hair into a faux hawk, although he sometimes wears it loose and tousled.

His everyday clothing often consists of a school uniform featuring a white button-up shirt and dark pants. When representing Toman, he wears the gang’s black tokko-fuku, decorated with its insignia and manifesto along the sides, along with a white sash.

He also wears a matching clover necklace with Hinata, symbolizing their relationship.

Skills and Abilities

Authority and Leadership

As a captain within Toman, Takemichi has authority over his assigned division and is responsible for leading its members.

Although he does not possess Mikey’s overwhelming presence or natural fighting ability, his leadership becomes increasingly influential as the story progresses. His determination and willingness to stand alongside his comrades help strengthen the gang’s unity.

Following the Kanto Incident, his reputation and leadership potential grow significantly, attracting the attention of powerful delinquents who recognize his ability to inspire others.

Charisma

Takemichi possesses a natural charisma that becomes more apparent as he develops. Similar to Shinichiro, he can inspire people through his sincerity, courage, and refusal to abandon others.

His influence does not come from intimidation or fear. Instead, people are drawn to his determination and the genuine concern he shows for their well-being.

Even during seemingly hopeless battles, Takemichi’s willingness to continue fighting encourages his allies to stand their ground. His charisma eventually makes him an important figure whom influential delinquents want on their side.

Reputation

Throughout the series, Takemichi’s reputation within the delinquent world grows considerably.

Although his fighting ability initially falls short of that of many other gang members, his involvement in major conflicts and his repeated acts of courage earn him recognition.

His reputation becomes increasingly impressive as stories of his determination and achievements spread. Eventually, his name carries weight among powerful delinquents, demonstrating that respect can be earned through more than physical strength alone.

Endurance and Resilience

Endurance is Takemichi’s greatest physical strength. Although he is not among the strongest fighters, he possesses an extraordinary ability to withstand pain and continue fighting after sustaining serious injuries.

Throughout the story, he survives attacks that would incapacitate most people. His feats include continuing to fight after being stabbed in the hand, pursuing an enemy despite suffering a gunshot wound to the foot, and remaining conscious after being repeatedly beaten.

His resilience allows him to endure opponents who are far stronger than he is. Even when he cannot defeat them directly, he can keep them occupied long enough for his allies to arrive.

Takemichi’s greatest strength lies in his refusal to remain defeated. The more desperate a situation becomes, the more determined he is to keep standing.

Fighting Prowess

Takemichi initially has relatively average fighting abilities for a delinquent. He lacks the strength, speed, finesse, and technique possessed by many of his opponents, and he rarely wins fights through physical ability alone.

Instead, he relies on endurance, determination, and the ability to keep fighting long after others would give up. When facing stronger opponents, he can wear them down through prolonged resistance and exploit moments when they underestimate him.

His fighting ability improves over time as he becomes more experienced and develops greater confidence in himself.

In particularly desperate situations, Takemichi can briefly overwhelm opponents who are normally far beyond his level. He has demonstrated the ability to defeat Tetta Kisaki in direct combat and has even knocked a gun out of Kisaki’s hands before he could react, despite being severely injured.

He has also demonstrated the ability to fight against Kakucho, one of the strongest members of Tenjiku, and send him flying with a single punch. These moments demonstrate how Takemichi’s determination can allow him to exceed his usual physical limitations.

Nevertheless, his fighting style remains straightforward and occasionally unrefined. He sometimes resorts to unconventional tactics, including biting, when he believes that doing so is necessary to survive.

Time Leaping

Takemichi possesses a supernatural ability that allows him to travel between the past and the present. Initially, his ability enables him to travel exactly twelve years backward in time.

To activate the ability, he must shake hands with Naoto Tachibana. By shaking Naoto’s hand in the present, Takemichi travels to the past; by shaking his hand in the past, he can return to the present.

His actions in the past directly influence the future, allowing him to change events that would otherwise lead to tragic outcomes.

However, time leaping comes with several limitations and complications.

Memory lapses: When Takemichi travels through time, he sometimes finds himself in situations that he does not fully understand because his past self continued living his life before the time leap. He must piece together what happened while he was not consciously in control of his younger self’s actions. Similar confusion can occur when he returns to the present.

Differences between his past and present selves: Takemichi’s behavior can change noticeably when his future consciousness takes control of his younger body. His maturity, memories, and experiences influence how he interacts with people, sometimes surprising those who knew his younger self.

Timeline changes: Altering events in the past can change the present in significant ways. However, the full consequences of his actions are not always immediately clear. Naoto may initially be unaware of changes to the timeline until Takemichi returns to the present and their memories reconnect with the altered events.

Life-dependent activation: Takemichi’s ability to return to the present depends on both himself and the person connected to his time leap being alive. If either person dies, he can become trapped in the past until he changes the timeline enough for them both to survive.

Takemichi’s time-leaping ability is the foundation of his mission to save Hinata and the other people whose lives are endangered by Toman’s increasingly dark future.

Future Visions

In addition to time leaping, Takemichi occasionally experiences visions of future events, including the deaths of other people.

The precise triggers for these visions are not always clear. However, the ability appears to develop as the story progresses, allowing him to glimpse events he has not yet experienced.

His future visions eventually become more useful in combat, helping him anticipate Mikey’s sudden movements and react to attacks that would otherwise be difficult to predict.

Personal Preferences and Trivia

According to the first official character book:

• Favorite Food: Potatoes and potato chips, particularly Oni Consommé Punch.

• Image Color: Light green.

• Dislikes: Ghosts.

• Special Skill: Solving puzzles.

• People He Respects or Admires: Mikey and Draken.

• Chifuyu Matsuno: Someone Takemichi comes to trust.

Daily Routine

On a typical day, Takemichi receives an email from Hinata while eating breakfast and spends some time happily thinking about her message.

During mathematics class, he struggles to keep up with the lessons and is reprimanded by his teacher, eventually having to take a supplementary examination. During lunch break, he plays soccer with Akkun and his other friends.

• After school, Takemichi goes on a date with Hinata before returning home and going to bed. On another occasion, he worries about a text message and oversleeps, resulting in another reprimand from his teacher the following day.

Occupation and Affiliations

• Occupation: Mechanic for Top of Manji

• Affiliation: Tokyo Manji Gang (Toman)

• Position: Founding member and vice-leader (副総長, Fuku-sōchō)

Overview

Ken Ryuguji, better known as Draken, is one of the main characters in Tokyo Revengers. He is a founding member and the vice-leader of the Tokyo Manji Gang, serving as Mikey’s closest friend and most trusted partner in leadership.

Known for his towering height, impressive physique, and formidable fighting abilities, Draken is one of the most respected members of Toman. While Mikey provides much of the gang’s charisma and inspiration, Draken often acts as its voice of reason, helping maintain order and guiding his friend through difficult situations.

Despite his intimidating appearance and reputation as a delinquent, Draken possesses a strong sense of responsibility and a deeply caring nature.

Appearance

Draken is an exceptionally tall, muscular teenager with a lean, well-built physique and defined abdominal muscles. His appearance makes him look considerably older than his actual age.

His blonde hair is shaved along the sides and back of his head, exposing his distinctive dragon tattoo on his left temple. The remaining hair is kept long on top and usually styled into a neat braid, with a few loose strands framing his face.

He has black eyes and a scar on the left side of his abdomen from a previous stabbing.

When representing Toman, Draken wears the gang’s standard tokko-fuku. Outside of gang activities, he favors casual clothing, particularly patterned long jackets.

Skills and Abilities

Authority and Leadership

As Toman’s vice-leader, Draken holds authority second only to Mikey in the gang’s official structure. In practice, his influence is nearly equal to Mikey’s, and members regularly listen to his commands.

Draken plays an essential role in maintaining the gang’s discipline and morale. His practical judgment helps prevent impulsive decisions from escalating into unnecessary conflicts, while his reputation encourages members to take their responsibilities seriously.

He is capable of commanding respect without relying solely on intimidation, making him an effective leader in his own right.

Fighting Prowess

Draken is one of Toman’s most formidable fighters. His exceptional physical strength, endurance, and combat experience allow him to defeat large numbers of opponents, even when he is severely outnumbered.

He has demonstrated the ability to continue fighting after being struck in the head with a metal pole, defeating approximately twenty opponents before returning to battle when reinforcements arrive. He has also survived a life-threatening knife wound.

Draken favors a straightforward brawling style built around powerful punches and devastating kicks. Rather than relying on elaborate techniques, he uses his strength, timing, and combat instincts to overwhelm his opponents.

His attacks can send much larger fighters flying backward, and he has demonstrated the power to knock back formidable opponents such as South Terano.

Although Draken is frequently considered one of the strongest members of Toman, his abilities are not equal to Mikey’s. A combined effort from Draken, Peh-yan, Chifuyu, and Mitsuya has been unable to defeat Mikey, demonstrating the difference between their fighting capabilities.

Strength and Endurance

Draken possesses extraordinary physical strength for his age. His muscular build contributes to his powerful strikes, while his endurance allows him to remain active during prolonged and physically demanding fights.

Even after sustaining serious injuries, Draken can continue fighting with remarkable determination. His ability to withstand punishment and recover quickly makes him difficult to defeat.

His physical capabilities, combined with his experience and willingness to confront dangerous opponents, have earned him considerable respect throughout the delinquent world.

Mechanical Knowledge

Draken is highly knowledgeable about motorcycles and mechanical systems. He is skilled at repairing motorcycles, assembling components, and performing maintenance.

His interest in mechanics allows him to work on bikes with confidence, and he enjoys spending his free time tinkering with motorcycle parts.

He also takes care of various practical tasks around the establishment where he lives, including fixing household items such as lightbulbs.

His mechanical knowledge complements Mikey’s own interest in motorcycles and helps reinforce their shared connection to biking culture.

Counseling and Listening Skills

Draken possesses an unexpected talent for listening to others and offering advice. His experience interacting with the young women at the establishment where he lives has helped him develop a reputation for being a good listener.

Although he can be blunt, he is capable of understanding other people’s problems and offering practical guidance. This quality reflects his maturity and reinforces his role as someone his friends can depend on when they need support.

• His routine reflects his dependable nature: he is often the person who keeps his friends organized, handles practical problems, and steps in when a situation requires someone to think clearly.

Tetta Kisaki (稀咲 鉄太)

Technical Information

Japanese: 稀咲 鉄太

Romaji: Kisaki Tetta

Aliases and Other Names:

• The Pierrot

• The Dark Hero

Biological Information

• Gender: Male

• Birthday: January 20

• Height: 164 cm (5’4”)

• Weight: 58 kg (128 lbs)

• Blood Type: A

• Hair Color: Dyed blonde; naturally black

• Eye Color: Gray

Occupation and Affiliations

• Occupation: Vice president of the TK&KO Group; sponsor of Top of Manji

• Affiliation: Tokyo Manji Gang (Toman)

• Position: Administrator of the Tokyo Manji Gang

Overview

Tetta Kisaki is one of the primary antagonists of Tokyo Revengers. A calculating and ambitious delinquent, he seeks to rise to the top of the Tokyo Manji Gang by manipulating its leader, Manjiro Sano (Mikey), and exploiting the people around him.

Despite lacking the overwhelming physical strength possessed by fighters such as Mikey and Draken, Kisaki compensates through his exceptional intelligence, strategic planning, and ability to manipulate others. He orchestrates conflicts, forms alliances with dangerous individuals, and carefully arranges events to advance his ambitions.

In several timelines, Kisaki is responsible for orchestrating Hinata Tachibana’s murder, repeatedly attempting to eliminate her after she rejects him. His schemes make him one of the most dangerous figures in the delinquent world, as his greatest weapon is not physical strength but his ability to turn people against one another.

Appearance

Kisaki is a teenage boy of average height with a relatively ordinary build, gray eyes, and dyed blonde hair. He wears glasses and an earring on his left ear.

During his first appearance, his hair is styled into a crew cut, with a shaved design on the right side of his head. Later, as a member of Toman, he adopts an undercut hairstyle and wears the gang’s standard uniform.

Originally, Kisaki had black hair and a fair complexion. After becoming involved in delinquent culture, he dyed his hair blonde and tanned his skin to change his appearance.

His glasses and carefully maintained hairstyle contribute to his composed, calculating image, which contrasts with the brutality of his actions.

Skills and Abilities

Authority and Influence

Kisaki has occupied influential positions in multiple gangs, using his intelligence and connections to advance his plans.

He understands how gang hierarchies operate and knows how to exploit the ambitions of their members. By positioning himself near powerful leaders, he can influence decisions and gain control over people who possess greater physical strength.

His authority often depends on manipulation rather than genuine loyalty, making his influence dangerous and unstable.

Fighting Prowess

Although Kisaki is not among the strongest delinquents, he possesses above-average fighting abilities.

He can defeat ordinary delinquents and hold his own against opponents with comparable experience. He has also demonstrated the ability to knock Takemichi unconscious with a single blow and engage him in direct combat.

Nevertheless, Kisaki’s physical abilities are not his primary advantage. Against exceptionally powerful fighters, he generally relies on preparation, deception, and outside assistance rather than attempting to win through strength alone.

Intelligence and Strategic Planning

Kisaki’s intelligence is his greatest asset and the foundation of his reputation as a dangerous antagonist.

He is highly analytical, observant, and capable of constructing elaborate plans that account for the behavior and motivations of multiple people. He studies his opponents carefully, identifies their weaknesses, and uses that knowledge to manipulate their decisions.

Throughout the story, Kisaki repeatedly frustrates Takemichi’s attempts to change the future by anticipating his actions and arranging events to counter them.

His strategies allow him to influence powerful delinquents, provoke conflicts between gangs, and climb through the ranks of criminal organizations.

In the original timeline, his schemes allow him to rise to the top of Toman. Without Takemichi’s time-leaping ability and repeated interventions, Kisaki’s ambition could have succeeded with devastating consequences.

His intelligence is especially dangerous because it is paired with an almost complete disregard for the people harmed by his plans.

Personal Preferences and Trivia

According to the official character book:

• Image Color: Black.

• Dislikes: Idiots.

• Special Skill: Studying, particularly mathematics.

• People He Respects or Admires: No one in particular.

• Dream: To establish Japan’s largest criminal syndicate.

• Heroic Story or Failure Story: He claims to have nothing worth mentioning.

• Favorite Spot: A pedestrian bridge at night.

• Favorite Plant: Wisteria floribunda.

Relationships

• Shuji Hanma: A covert associate with whom Kisaki maintains a secret connection while working toward his ambitions.

• Manjiro Sano (Mikey): Kisaki attempts to gain Mikey’s trust and manipulate him for personal advantage.

• Hinata Tachibana: Kisaki develops an obsessive fixation on her during childhood, which becomes a major motivation for his actions in several timelines.

Character Summary

Tetta Kisaki is a character defined by ambition, insecurity, intelligence, and an obsessive desire for control. Unlike delinquents who rely on physical strength or personal loyalty, he builds his influence through manipulation and calculated planning.

His greatest strength is his ability to understand what other people want and turn those desires into tools for his own advancement. However, his greatest weakness is his inability to accept that other people have their own choices, feelings, and ambitions.

• Kisaki’s downfall ultimately stems from the same arrogance that fuels his rise: he believes that every person and every situation can be controlled if he plans carefully enough. His story demonstrates how intelligence without empathy can become a destructive force.

Kazutora Hanemiya

Baji and Kazutora share a complicated history involving guilt and responsibility. Their relationship is marked by the consequences of their shared past, and Baji is willing to shoulder the same sin rather than allow Kazutora to bear the burden alone.

Takemichi Hanagaki

Baji comes to trust Takemichi with the future of Mikey and Toman. Although Takemichi may not initially appear to be the strongest or most capable delinquent, Baji recognizes the importance of his determination and entrusts him with protecting the people and ideals Baji holds dear.

Chifuyu Matsuno

Chifuyu is Baji’s vice-captain and one of his closest friends. Their friendship develops after Chifuyu repeats a school year, bringing the two together. Chifuyu deeply respects Baji, while Baji trusts him as a loyal companion who understands his intentions.

Daily Routine and Character Anecdote

One of Baji’s official character anecdotes focuses on his struggles with school. After learning that he must repeat a year, he sees his mother crying and realizes that he needs to study. Unfortunately, he struggles to remember anything from his lessons.

Seeking advice, Baji consults Mikey, who jokingly suggests that wearing glasses might make him smarter. Taking the suggestion seriously, Baji goes to Shibuya with Mikey and Draken to buy a pair.

However, their trip takes an unexpected turn when some delinquents bump into Baji and provoke a confrontation. The situation escalates when the other delinquents call in approximately 40 reinforcements. Baji eagerly looks forward to fighting all of them, but Mikey and Draken turn it into a game of rock-paper-scissors to determine who gets the chance.

In the end, Baji becomes distracted by the prospect of a fight and forgets to buy the glasses altogether. The anecdote highlights his impulsive nature, his difficulty with academics, and his tendency to prioritize fighting over almost everything else.

Character Summary

Keisuke Baji is a fierce, unpredictable, and fiercely loyal founding member of Toman. Beneath his intimidating grin and violent tendencies lies a perceptive young man who deeply values friendship and the principles he helped establish. Though he may act recklessly and struggle with school, his intelligence, courage, and selflessness make him an essential part of Toman’s foundation.

• Baji’s defining trait is his willingness to sacrifice himself for the people he loves. To him, protecting his friends and ensuring that Toman remains true to its ideals matter far more than his own reputation, safety, or future.
