Tokyo‌ ‌Revengers’‌ ‌Long-Awaited‌ ‌Bloody‌ ‌Halloween‌ ‌Has‌ ‌Begun‌ ‌

Toman wants Baji back in Episode 18 of Tokyo Revengers, but they’ll have to survive a war first, as Bloody Halloween begins.

Mikey, the Toman gang’s frontman, has proven time and time again in Tokyo Revengers that he is a fantastic leader and an unbreakably faithful buddy. It’s incredible that, after having lived through tragedy after catastrophe in his 15 years, he still stands tall and strong in front of his group. In Episode 18 of the anime, he covers his inner agony effectively, but when he sees his former pals, it all bursts out in full, violent force.

Draken confesses in the show that Mikey killed Kazutora on Bloody Halloween because Kazutora had killed Baji. Mikey, on the other hand, escaped arrest because Kisaki had arranged for someone else to take his place. Mikey plunged into darkness from that day forward, and Valhalla gained control of Toman.

Takemichi is overcome by memories that shouldn’t belong to him yet, as Draken explains the event: Both Kazutora and Baji are dead, and Mikey, whose face is covered in blood, gazes down at Kazutora’s unmoving body with his eyes closed. Takemichi breaks down in tears, pleading with him to save Mikey. Mikey’s death breaks him since he knows his friend would never kill anyone. Takemichi, on the other hand, must first save Baji in order to save Mikey.

Draken meets with Kazutora two days before Bloody Halloween and asks him to end the war. Mikey had vouched for Kazutora at his trial, allowing him to get out of juvie early, thus Draken is perplexed as to why Kazutora still despises him. Kazutora is still considered a Toman crew member, but he simply walks away, claiming he’ll see them during Bloody Halloween. Meanwhile, Mikey goes on a spin on his bike, his sole remaining link to his brother, in the hopes of receiving guidance from Shinichiro’s ghost. Baji even pays his respects to Shinichiro’s tomb.

Mikey longs to return to his childhood, as evidenced by his return to the jungle gym where he and Baji used to play as children. Things used to be a lot easier: the two always made up after a quarrel, but he’s not sure they’ll be able to do so after tomorrow.

That evening, he gathers Toman for one final meeting. Toman does not forgive traitors, so he declares Baji a traitor. Mikey’s face instantly transforms into a childish pout, and he sits down on the stairwell, admitting he can’t fight his friend. He yells that he needs everyone’s support to return Baji to Toman, eliciting a round of applause.

Many people have gathered to see the clash between Toman and Valhalla, while members of numerous gangs have congregated to observe. The fight’s overseer gathers Kazutora and Draken as representatives of their respective sides, and Draken states their condition: if Toman wins, they will return Baji. Kazutora’s eye twitches in response.

For years, Baji has been the only one who has ever stood by Kazutora’s side while all of his other friends seemed to abandon him. Kazutora snaps at the prospect of losing that support and witnessing Baji return to Mikey’s side. He hits the overseer and says that Toman’s blood will be sought by Valhalla. The long-awaited Bloody Halloween of Tokyo Revengers has begun.
