The story of the sequels is based on the "Bloody Halloween" arc, which was told in the original manga's fourth to eight volumes. The main heroine Hinata Tachibana is killed once again in front of the protagonist Takemichi's eyes by Tokyo Manji Gang, whose nature has become even more vicious. Takemichi goes back in time to investigate the "sad incident" that tore apart the six founding members of Tokyo Manji Gang, who are the key to saving Hinata.

 

Following the successful first film, which became the highest-grossing Japanese live-action film of 2021, the first part, Tokyo Revengers 2 Chi no Valentine-hen -Unmei- (Bloody Halloween Arc -Fate-) will be released in Japan on April 21, 2023, then the second part Tokyo Revengers 2 Chi no Valentine-hen -Kessen- (Bloody Halloween Arc -Decisive Battle-) will follow on June 30. Filming has already finished on October 31, 2022.
