Why does Takemichi’s visions give us a shocking purpose?

After the release of Tokyo Revengers’ latest chapter, fans were surprised due to the evolution of one of Takemichi’s powers, his visions. Let’s discuss in this post below!

How has Takemichi’s visions evolved?

In Tokyo Revengers Chapter 267, fans saw Takemichi finally getting the upper hand during his fight with Mikey. This was all thanks to his visions, a power that evolved during the fight to let him see Mikey’s attacks before they even happened. The crucial moment in which this ability made itself known was before Sanzu’s plan to run everyone over with a train came true in this latest arc. Our hero prevented this from happening with the help of Kakucho, who defended him from Sanzu’s sword. Sadly, this also meant the death of Kakucho.

Fortunately, Takemichi’s visions have changed drastically during his battle with Mikey. He no longer sees a distant future involving his friends in danger, and Takemichi is now being warned of immediate threats. It was because of these visions that he was able to avoid Mikey’s devastating attacks.

Is this a reflection of Takemichi’s character?

Fans of Tokyo Revengers know that Takemichi’s powers are mostly linked to his selfless desire to help people. During most of the manga, we have seen him use his abilities to prevent deaths, create a better future or fulfill a promise. The first time he used his vision, he was warned about the possibility of one of his friends dying without alerting Takemichi that he was also in danger of being killed. That night could have been Takemichi’s last if not for Draken’s sacrifice. Nonetheless, the evolution of his power may be an indication of Takemichi growing while fighting Mikey.

This could be a reflection of Takemichi finally seeing his value as an individual. His growth has given him the ability to look out for himself, as he has been doing for his friends since the beginning of his adventure. Still, this is also helping him gain an advantage over Mikey, which will prove crucial to helping the latter overcome his Dark Impulses in future chapters.
