Studio Liden Films adapted the manga into a Television anime which ran for 24 episodes starting from  April 11, 2021, to September 19, 2021.

A lot of anime manages to get a season 2 right after the first season finale but unfortunately, Tokyo Revengers wasn&#8217;t one of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, anime sometimes can take years to get renew for a new season since the decision depends on various factors. Luckily, it is possible to evaluate whether it will have a&nbsp;new season&nbsp;under some main factors which are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Availability of source material<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Sales<\/strong> <\/li><li><strong>Popularity<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s have a look: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is there enough material available for Second Season of Tokyo Revengers<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">The original manga by Wakui is published by Kadokawa under their Weekly Shonen Magazine which first began serialization on March 1, 2017, and so far 24 compiled volumes have been released with a new one releasing every 3-4 months on average.

Sales generated through the sales of the manga volumes and merch are their main source of income and the rest is treated as a side income in the form of advertiser fees, online streaming licencing, and Blu-ray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Generally, a 24-episode anime television series usually takes about $ 6,000,000 to produce.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tokyo Revengers manga dominated the manga sales chart all year round and was the third-highest selling manga first half of 2021, just behind<strong> <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/animenewsandfacts.com\/category\/jujutsu-kaisen\/\"><strong>Jujutsu Kaisen<\/strong> <\/a>and<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/animenewsandfacts.com\/category\/demon-slayer\/\">Demon Slayer<\/a><\/strong>.
