The live-action Tokyo Revengers movie will hit Japanese theaters on July 9. As part of the promotion, Warner Bros. Japan is releasing character trailers each Wednesday up until the release. Well, today is Wednesday, so the new character trailer lets us see a little bit of Takemichi and Naoto.
Kodansha Comics gives this description of the manga that the movie is based on:
“Watching the news, Takemichi Hanagaki learns that his girlfriend from way back in middle school, Hinata Tachibana, has died. The only girlfriend he ever had was just killed by a villainous group known as the Tokyo Manji Gang. He lives in a crappy apartment with thin walls, and his six-years-younger boss treats him like an idiot. Plus, he’s a complete and total virgin … At the height of his rock-bottom life, he suddenly time-leaps twelve years back to his middle school days!! To save Hinata, and change the life he spent running away, hopeless part-timer Takemichi must aim for the top of Kanto’s most sinister delinquent gang!!”
