Why Takemichi is the GOAT
Anime Relations: Tokyo Revengers
Tokyo Revengers is one of the best anime of 2021 and has now sold more than a whopping 16.5 million copies this year. It is filled with multiple charismatic characters who have their own style by which they make themselves the best characters in this phenomenal anime. But in all this, Tokyo Revengers’ main character in the name of Hanagaki Takemichi is many a time disregarded by the majority of the audience.
There are reasons for this lash out.
Firstly, people think that Takemichi is physically weak.
Secondly, he always cries. I mean, there is a reason that he is regarded as the crybaby hero!
Thirdly, he doesn’t make decisions faster.
Fourthly, he doesn’t undergo any training to get stronger.
Fifthly, he has no drip unlike the others like Mikey, Draken, Baji, and Hanma (this is definitely a reason that people have in their minds).
For me though, Takemichi is that main character who is not found in many scenarios. He is really unique.
Having read the manga up to the latest chapter, I can say that he is really going to change everyone’s minds. Even for anime onlies, he should be one of a kind. In fact, he is one of the strongest characters in Tokyo Revengers!
Now, I will tell you the reasons for me to think so.
Tokyo Revengers’ Takemichi is not weak!
Period.
In fact, he is a badass character who has his moments.
He is surely not fragile. His body is not frail. I understand and agree that he doesn’t know how to throw punches or how to dodge them but the man can take hits. He is definitely a punching bag but unlike many delinquents in the anime, he doesn’t get knocked out that easily. This isn’t a typical shounen anime where the MC gets separate episodes for his training so that he can become stronger and fight his enemies. Takemichi does fight his enemies but in his own way.
Takemichi is a literal tank!
As I said, he can take hits upon hits upon hits upon hits! He is a lot stronger than most of the guys, just not in fighting. Do I even need to write more about this? He got knocked out only once, by Kisaki Tetta.
He is in a tough situation. Really tough!
Imagine going 12 years in the past to save a girl that you care about, but in order to save her you have to change the past and in order to change the past, you have to face the cruel guys, gang fights and gang politics. And even before you know it, you are saving your homies before even doing anything about your girl. In Tokyo Revengers, everything is in a chain. If one event gets triggered then it only going to affect the others one by one.
Tokyo Revengers’ poor Takemichi must be pretty much stressed right now but people fail to take this into consideration and bash his decision-making ability.
Check out my spoiler-free Tokyo Revengers review to know which tier it received.
Tokyo Revengers’ Takemichi doesn’t know how to give up
This point is really common for him and many people already know this. He will take punches and kicks but he will not back down. He will never give up, after all, he has to correct the future. His resolve is undeterrable and unbreakable. So if he gives up, there will be no future for him, right? If there’s no future for him then how will he save his woman?
Honestly, he has no choice other than to face the critical situations before him. Giving up is never the option.
Conclusion
Due to these reasons, Takemichi will be the GOAT (for me, he already is) as the manga continues to progress. I am sure the audience will realise the quality of Takemichi and praise him after what he has done.
Most of us would be afraid to go to the past and take his place as let’s be honest here, that is actually depressing. Seeing the people that we care about always getting in trouble will make anyone mad. I bet many of us could not even do anything if we went to the past.
No matter what, Takemichi pledges to defeat Kisaki Tetta, the main antagonist, by any means possible.
In any case, watch out for upcoming drippy characters in Tokyo Revengers that will take your breath away. And of course, don’t forget Hanagaki Takemichi.
Remember the name.
