How to ruin an episode, the japanese way. Not only did they flash lights to censor a buddhist symbol, we get different storyboarding than the og version and horrible cuts to go along with it. Jarring to say the least. If these censors keep up for the entire season it will legit be unwatchable. I’ll just swap to the manga not gonna waste my time. Who thought that was a good idea?

You srs? That’s just a few examples. They also censored it in the op.

Since the beginning of this anime, I feared happening to Hina what happened to that poor girl.

Hide swastika is dumb, and just keep people from learning the original meaning. Like the proposal to substitute the swastika on Buddhist temples in Japan


It also pretty much takes away from the stories importance of the Manji gang it's so stupid the censorship makes me want to die

What ya doing Crunchyroll, some really weird censoring going on here and all that for a symbol that looks like a Swastika...

Damn, Takemichi almost be banging that blond girl (I wouldn't have questioned anything, cause she's mighty fine). Love how he's now is known as the "wussy-kid" to her, leaving her behind while she was already stripped down to her underwear XD Hina had to be there to hear it

I love seeing the relationship between Draken and Mikey. They both care for each other and it's just like Takemichi said, they cover the parts the other lacks. That hospital scene was a bit hard to watch, yeah Draken and Mikey did nothing wrong, but the Dad's reaction is completely understandable. I hope that the guys who put that girl in a comatose, will suffer greatly by the hands of Mikey and/or Draken.

Great episode as always.

So it was the symbol they censored. I noticed the censoring but couldn't really pick out what was being censored. I guess it makes sense because of what it's normally associated too but if they keep doing it everywhere then it might suck.

Mikey riling up the gang was pretty awesome, especially when he asked if there was anyone who disagreed against taking the fight to Moebius.

Damn, that was rough. I felt really bad for the girl. The scene with her parents was really well done. Drachen is the one who keeps Mikey straight and leads him towards a righteous path. They might be delinquents but he teaches Mikey to understand the heart and show empathy to people and not involve innocent civilians. I'm with Takemichi here, there's no way both of them had a falling out, something must have happened and I hope Takemichi can prevent it.

Such a great episode just to be damaged by the censorship. If the next episodes will also have censorship I probably drop it and just read the manga.

An important thing about censorship:
Is not Crunchyroll censorship, it seems is directly from Japan soo...

Shit got pretty real after hearing about what happened to that one member of Mikey’s gang. The animation is still sketchy in some places, but the plot is interesting and the characters are well written so it isn’t a death sentence like it is to other anime. Hopefully they end up giving the gang fight good enough animation so that it is at least not distracting.

takemichi spies on mikey and draken's daily life because he finds out that draken will die in a few weeks, mikey being the goofy child-like kid he is and draken acts as the mature one to balance him out. not just that, draken is also the one who acts as mikey's "heart", which is understandable if mikey turns 180 if draken died.

next episode will probably be about the mobeius fight, can't wait for that

Well, that's quite the situation to wake up to right after going back into the past...^^;

I guess it makes sense that the former Takemichi takes over once the future version returns to the present, but damn, that's a VERY BIG risk factor right there. Basically any time Takemichi's consciousness is in the present, his old idiot self could completely ruin things for him.

Interesting episode, feud against Moebius. Mitsuya's debut, he was voiced by Yoshitsugu Matsuoka.

I'm a bit annoyed with the censored part, why does the swastika symbol have to be censored?

Draken's words at the end are really cool. Lastly, I'm waiting for Chifuyu's debut.

watched a torrent version haha...

wow the shrine scene looks MUCH better

outside of that it's not much difference yet, but i'm worried about the moebius fight since people in the gang would be everywhere, how are they gonna censor it?

i do have to give kudos to the voice acting in this anime, it's quite on point.
i like how many of the characters' voices can go from deep chill bored type to a rougher growly type (for example: mitsuya and mikey in this episode)

but really mikey's dead eyes really adds to his intimidation factor even though he was quite cute in the restaurant scene

also speaking of the restaurant scene, the tone of the story changes quite a lot in one episode, idk how to feel about it. i think they capture both tones very well but the transitions between them can be abrupt

Why would I bother watching the anime on CR when they remove entire scenes, change the storyboarding, or make the experience unenjoyable by flashing lights in my face simply because they’re too lazy to add a disclaimer at the start of the episode? The manga will give me the full experience, it’s not like I’ll miss out on balls to the wall sakuga with LIDENFILMS at the helm. Either that or pirated version but knowing some of the things coming up and how often that symbol shows up, I ain’t sitting through 2-cour of this.

Best episode imo

The story is building up nicely. My only *sigh* regret is that this show also has much more interesting characters the the MC. This is being like new trend of the anime/manga world. Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw Man come up mind mind where mc is much less likable then most of the characters

Fall 2022 is the most Unforgettable anime season of all time

Mikey had such a alpha presence, inspiring respect, feels like the boys would follow him through fire if he'd jump in.

But the real kicker for me was the scene at the hospital, toping off with Draken's speech. I got a soft spot for a strong gangster that's honorable & with a heart of gold and well in this case, he IS the equivalent of Mikey's the heart.

Is it just me or Tokyo revengers anime feel bland? Idk, I love the manga so much and anime is sticking to the story, still it feels so forced, every scene was a gem in the manga. I think execution in the anime feels boring. There is something lacking, feel? atmosphere? animation? I thought this episode would be hype since i loved it in the manga, when i watched the anime it just feels wrong i cant describe.

Just watch the uncensored version mate. The dumbass censorship is not in the Japanese broadcast, it's purely due to Crunchyroll's own editing. Have to go the piracy route sure, but it's way better than whatever the hell is going on with the official CR version.

Loved the episode. Excited for the upcoming episode to see how Takemitchy will save Draken. Good to see that Draken have a heart and the childish heat of Mikey.
To me the whole Tokyo Manji gang is Badass.
And by the loved the part where Takemitchy(I mean the past one) was going to screw Draken's chick.

REALLY, CRUNCHYROLL? Censoring the Swastika of the Tokyo "Manji" Gang? That's a pretty bold move that'll not gear good for all.

Trying to take the easy way out, Takemichi? NOPE, because Naoto won't let you be. And the impending internal struggle beween Mikey and Draken that lead to Ryuguji's death, along with the earlier suicides, Toman must both be stopped and saved.

To go back to the past with such a heartthrobbing situation, Takemichi must make a lot of things right. So Emma was the one who almost violated Takemichi, that must've pissed Hina off, more than being Draken's girl. The Moebius conflict with Toman is a serious one: a no-holds frill gang who does the despicable, and revenge must be served cold on the exact day where Draken dies.

Mikey's such a kid LOLS, which makes Ryuguji look like a parent in comparison. But to see one of their comrade's significant other get the disfigurement treatment from a rival gang, both Mkey and Draken have no choice but to take revenge and have a heart for immediate friends and families.

A good takeback for this episode: Draken is Mikey's heart, and the Musashi Festival must be changed at all costs.

Great episode! Glad I watched the uncensored version, those white lines are annoying, if they were going to censor it, they could at least do it better.

Damn, past Takemitchy was in on some shit, who tf would cheat on Hina. I mean Emma do be fine, but sheesh, dodged a bullet there, nice save present Takemitchy even if she was just doing it to get Draken's attention. Moebius needs to get their asses handed to them though.

Mikey is such a kid though lmao, I fully understand now how Mikey was badly influenced, Draken was literally his heart, he sets him on the right path, after Draken died, Mikey lost his heart. I really hope Takemitchy is able to save Draken. Looking forward to the next episode.
