Tokyo Revengers has touched every milestone to be considered the cream of the crop. From listing itself as one of the best-selling manga to winning several awards in multiple categories, the series has made an irreplaceable name in the anime community. Although there are countless reasons why Tokyo Revengers is doted on, people love it the most for bringing up the concept of street gangs and introducing us to some of the strongest fighters of anime.

The series authentically portrays street gangs and their conflicts because Ken Wakui, the writer, drew from his experiences with gangs during his high school years. This firsthand exposure grants him deep insight into the inner workings of the gangs. While every character in the series has an incredible strength, these chaps easily surpass the others.

Updated by Daksh Chaudhary on November 25th, 2023: We have added five new entries to the list, seeing the potential of these characters in Tokyo Revengers. Besides that, we have added what makes these characters special and their biggest feats in the series.

15 Kanji Mochizuki

Threw Chifuyu Far Away With A Single Punch

What's special about Kanji Mochizuki:

• Mochi loves arm wrestling.
• He is named Gorilla for his strength.

Kenji Mochizuki, among the Four Heavenly Kings, held a revered status among Tenjiku's strongest delinquents before his transition to the Tokyo Manji Gang. In his Tenjiku days, Mochi was a figure feared across Japan's gang landscape, his appearance and physique epitomizing sheer brute force.

His strength earned him the moniker 'Gorilla,' reflecting his insatiable appetite for combat. Not just a nickname, he even devoured food like a gorilla, once conquering a dumpling-eating competition by consuming fifty giant dumplings. Mocchi's formidable strength didn't just stop at eating feats; he also bested powerful delinquents like Angry, Smiley, and Chifuyu.

14 Nahoya Kawata

Won Against Kakucho Without Much Efforts

What's special about Nahoya Kawata:

• Nahoya loves reading manga.
• Nahoya is master at making ramen.

Always keeping a smile on his face, Nahoya has been given the perfect alias: Smiley. However, opposite to his moniker, Nahoya enjoys a good fight with strong opponents. And while he looks small and skinny, don't be surprised to see him take down opponents double his size. Smiley has always been a loyal member of Toman and shows full support to its members.

Especially when he finds his brother Souya in trouble, Nahoya could go to any length to assure his safety. Before joining Toman; he was the leader of the Twin Devils Gang, which was later defeated by Kanji Mochizuki. But it's not like Nahoya is devoid of fear. Just like all the moms out there, Nahoya fears his mother, especially after he bullies his brother.

13 Shuji Hanma

One Of The Very Few People To Withstand Mikey's Signature Kick

What's special about Shuji Hanma:

• Shuji Hanma's endurance is far superior to others.
• Has been a top member of several gangs.

The best word to describe Shuji Hanma would be to call him a sadist. Everything he does is to relieve himself from the boredom, even if it costs someone's life. He goes well with Tetta Kisaki, the biggest manipulator of the series, as he finds pleasure in seeing how his plans turn the tables. In fact, Hanma cares little for his own life.

Shuji Hanma had been the top member of the gangs like Moebius, Valhalla, and Tenjiku, so there's no doubt about his physical strength. But his biggest card is endurance, where he easily outranks most people. For the same reason, Draken called him a zombie. He fought both Draken and Mikey in different battles where he managed to survive for a long time.

12 Ryohei Hayashi

Defeated Shion Madarame With A Single Strike

What's special about Ryohei Hayashi:

• Ryohei is considered stupid, yet a strong opponent
• He has a good sense of humor.

Popular by the name Peh-yan, Ryohei relies on sheer force and powerful punches rather than refined fighting techniques. He's a bit dim-witted and reacts impulsively, often displaying his anger openly. A simple nudge can trigger a torrent of shouts, insults, and punches from him. However, despite struggling to express it, Peh-yan deeply cares for his friends and goes to great lengths to ensure their safety.

It is said that in battles, Peh-yan appears much stronger than his actual prowess, and it was clearly evident by his swift takedown of Shion Madarame with a single punch during the Toman and Tenjiku clash. This ability to amplify his strength in combat sets him apart, despite his lack of special fighting skills.

11 Yasuhiro Muto

Defeated Some Really Strong Delinquents, Including Seishu Inui

What's special about Yasuhiro Muto:

• He wants to own a coffee shop
• Yasuhiro loves the smell of leather jackets.

Yasuhiro Muto's looks speak about his strength. Yet, he remains calm and collected and avoids stepping into unnecessary battles. However, during battle, he doesn't hold back and mostly takes down his enemies with a single strike. He has been a member of both Tokyo Manji Mang and Tenjiku, yet whichever side he takes, he shows full loyalty toward his leader.

In fact, he has a special hate for traitors. Although he looks like someone who couldn't make any friends, Mucho is quite amicable within the group and doesn't step back when it comes to helping his friends and team members. His strength is further enhanced by his proficiency in Judo.

10 Souya Kawata

Defeated Haitani Brothers, Kanji Mochizuki, And Yasuhiro Muto During Rage

What's special about Souya Kawata:

• Souya loves playing with stuffed animals.
• He is good at deception.

Also referred to as Angry, Souya Kawata stands as the younger twin brother of Nahoya. Similar to his moniker, Souya consistently sports an angry expression. While he's short with a height of 5.7 inches, with not so muscular body, his skillset and fighting abilities make him a well-known name among Toman.

Despite his name and appearance, Angry abhors violence, preferring peaceful resolutions. However, when necessary, he fearlessly engages in battles against multiple opponents solo. What truly amplifies Angry's might? His transformation into The Crying Blue Ogre, a rage-induced state that boosts his strength by a staggering 100 times.

9 Hakkai Shiba

Overpowered Haitani Brothers In A Battle

What's special about Hakkai Shiba:

• Hakkai can do anything for his friends and family.
• The person he respects the most is Mitsuya

Hakkai remains a less talked about character throughout the series, but his strength could put the greatest of fighters to shame. He is the vice-captain of the Second Division of the Tokyo Manji Gang. Hakkai might look like a cold-hearted guy, given his appearance, but he is truly faithful to his gang and could reach any height to save his loved ones.

He can be seen fighting for Toman in various instances and taking down several enemies at once. Most of the rivals are just a punch away from defeat while fighting Hakkai. He also has an elder brother, Taiju Shiba, with a completely opposite personality but an even greater strength.

8 Takashi Mitsuya

Fought At Par With Taiju Shiba

What's special about Takashi Mitsuya:

• He is very protective of his younger sisters.
• Mitsuya wants to be a designer.

Tokyo Revengers is set in a world filled with mean, nasty, and pessimist folks, but on the contrary, Takashi Mitsuya feels like a calm lake. His mere presence could make the surroundings serene. Mitsuya would generally avoid engaging in a clash but wouldn't hesitate to trounce the enemies if needed.

Just like any other Toman founder, Takashi Mitsuya wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice his life for the gang and his friends. He could be seen giving his all in several fights and taking down multiple enemies at once. Even after being hit by a rod, Mitsuya didn't lose consciousness, and his fighting skills are even talked about among other gang members.

7 Taiju Shiba

He Knocked Out Mikey With A Powerful Punch

What's special about Taiju Shiba:

• Taiju is very religious.
• Taiju loves swimming and aquariums.

Speak of the devil; Taiju Shiba, elder brother of Hakkai Shiba, is next on the list. Taiju is ruthless and shows little to no care for his enemies and even his siblings. But what an irony; he is quite religious as he often goes to church. He has all the abilities of a leader, which is why his followers show trust in him.

Taiju's incredible strength is evident from the fact that he trained the 10th Generation of the Black Dragon gang. If a person is able to survive Mikey's signature kick, then he's definitely a hoodlum, and Taiju is one of them. In fact, he's the only one to take down Mikey with a single punch, although Mikey took that punch on purpose.

6 Keisuke Baji

Defeated 50 Opponents While Being Stabbed

What's special about Keisuke Baji:

• His loyalty towards Toman is unquestionable.
• Baji fears his mother a lot.

Introduced as a villain but later turned into a man with a golden heart, Baji is one of the founding members of Toman. He was so incredibly faithful to Toman and his friends that he cast himself as an enemy just to save them. Besides Takemichi, Baji is the only one to clearly see Kisaki's true face, proving his sharp intellect.

How strong is Keisuke Baji? Well, he was able to knock down 50 members of Valhalla while being stabbed with a knife in the back. After enduring for so long, he finally collapsed due to heavy blood loss, but he managed to prove his worth before fainting. He has been a tough guy since his teenage years, as he saved Chifuyu from the enemies by taking them down single-handedly.

5 South Terano

Defeated Powerful Characters Like Seishu Inui, Kakucho And Dino

What's special about South Terano:

• He loves visiting Tokyo when it's snowing
• South Terano loves his mother a lot.

South Terano was the main antagonist of the Three Deities Arc and the leader of the Rokuhara Tandai gang. He was introduced in chapter 207 of the manga but soon became more popular than most characters due to his tyrant personality and sadistic nature. His short-tempered behavior and audacity to kill were highly feared among people.

South's gigantic structure even made Draken look like a kid, and his powers equally matched his body. His single blow would be able to take down an average fighter. In the battle of Three Deities, he took down Senju in a one-on-one fight, although, soon after that, Mikey lost his cool and made him taste dirt.

4 Senju Kawaragi

Managed To Overpower South Terano

What's special about Senju Kawaragi:

• Senju loves to go to the amusement park.
• Senju doesn't fear anyone.

On the one hand, the series includes delicate women like Hina and Emma; on the other side, Tokyo Revengers introduces us to Senju, a prodigy of strength and force. Before joining the Tokyo Manji Gang, Senju was one of the Three Deities of Kanto and the leader of the Brahman gang. Senju had every quality to make her a great leader, but she was taken down by her brother, who wanted to take the gang on a darker path.

Senju is short in height, but she uses it to her benefit as it allows her to move quickly and fight in an acrobatic manner. Adding her incredible strength to her quick moves, she becomes nearly invincible. Her unbelievable strength helped her stand straight as the top player in Toman and Brahman.

3 Ken Ryuguji

Defeated All Members Of Black Dragon Gang Single Handedly

What's special about Ken Ryuguji:

• He once defeated a bike gang with Mikey sleeping on his back.
• He has a weird obsession with motorcycles.

Ken Ryuguyi, better known as Draken, falls second on the list of the strongest characters in Tokyo Revengers. He is one of Toman's founding members and the gang's vice president. Draken could easily be picked up as the most sensible among all the Toman's members. Although he resists showing affection for his loved ones, he could do anything for their well-being.

From a severe knife wound to withstanding a brutal hit from a metal rod, Draken has endured plenty of life-threatening injuries, but nothing stops him from being a monster while fighting his opponents. His punches and kicks are strong enough to send South Terano flying, despite the latter being immensely large. Watching him defeat the whole gang on his own feels ordinary now.

2 Izana Kurokawa

Fought At Par With Mikey

What's special about Izana Kurokawa:

• He doesn't respect or care for his gang members.
• Izana fears and respects Shinichiro Sano.

Izana might look like a fragile teen with a cheerful personality, but he's the most ominous of all the Tokyo Revengers' characters, thanks to his dark past. The impact of his past was intense enough to make him mentally unstable, and now he could do anything to gain more power.

Izana was the leader of Tenjiku and also the Eighth Generation Black Dragon. His fighting abilities couldn't be doubted, but what makes him a menace is how he clearly sees through his foes' minds and counters their attacks. Being the strongest guy in Tenjiku, Izana was able to fight on par with Mikey.

1 Manjiro Sano

Can Take Down Most Opponents With A Single Kick

What's special about Manjiro Sano:

• Mikey can do boxing while sleeping.
• He doesn't like spicy food.

Mikey topping the list shouldn't surprise you at all. He is called "Invincible Mikey" for a solid reason, as there's no fighter who could stand a chance against him. When Mikey gets serious in a fight, the atmosphere suddenly changes, and even his closest friend, Draken, can't do anything to stop him.

For most of his fights, Mikey's signature kick is enough to take down the enemy. Even after being repeatedly hit with a rod, Mikey took down his enemy with a single headbutt. He lifted his opponent, who was holding onto his leg, and hit the other enemy with the same leg, taking down both of them. Even the combined attacks of Draken, Peh-yan, Chifuyu, and Mitsuya were not enough to overpower Mikey.
