If there’s one thing that bothers me the most – at least as I write this, it’s when news of a film makes it to a legit accessible streaming platform here in the states and there’s barely a blurb about it newswise.
At any rate, consider this a call to action as Tsutomu Hanabusa’s live-action adaptation of Ken Wakui’s Tokyo Revengers is now streaming on Crunchyroll two years after its release. The film stars Takumi Kitamura in the role of a loser who finds himself able to travel back-and-forth in time while mitigating with the brother of the only woman he’s ever loved, and tasked with traveling back to high school in order to prevent her present day death.
I got to screen the film during Fantasia XXV and you can read my review here. Needless to say, it was a blast to check out, and with the two-part sequel heading to Fantasia XXVII starting later this month, I hope to provide reviews of those titles for you as well.
For now, head to Crunchyroll and subscribe to their premium plan to enjoy their features.
