Как пишется имя майки на английском из токийских мстителей

“	В наши дни никто не думает, что гопники — это круто, верно? Во времена моего старшего брата здесь было множество банд байкеров. Они проносились по городу на своих супер-громких мотоциклах. Они все были чертовски смелы, все время ссорились, но сами решали свои проблемы. И разве это не круто? Вот почему я собираюсь создать новую эру гопников.	”

Манджиро Сано (佐野 (さの) 万次郎 (まんじろう) , Sano Manjirō^?) или Майки (マイキー,  Maikī^?) — основатель и глава банды Токийская Свастика. Он является дейтерагонистом манги Токийские Мстители, а также её аниме-адаптации.

Внешность

Майки — подросток ростом ниже среднего, с чёрными пронзительными глазами и длинными светлыми волосами, которые собраны только на макушке, а волосы по бокам свободно распущены.

В оригинальной хронологии волосы взрослого Майки были зачёсаны назад, и у него всё ещё был мотоцикл CB250T.

Во втором своём появлении во взрослом возрасте Майки появляется с короткими чёрными волосами и татуировкой дракона на шее, похожей на те, что есть у Дракена и Такаши Мицуи. Он ездит на мотоцикле CB205T, принадлежавшем ранее его брату, Шиничиро Сано.

В последней временной линии у него короткие белые волосы с подстриженной средней частью и татуировка Бонтен на затылке с рисунком, похожим на серьги его приёмного брата, Изаны Курокавы. Отмечается, что он худой, неуравновешенный и с большими мешками под глазами.

Личность

Майки — обычно беззаботный подросток, который любит шутить и разыгрывать тех, кого считает своими близкими друзьями. Он очень заботится о них и полон решимости защищать их честь. Он редко проявляет слабость, так как считает себя основой и опорой Тосвы, и если он сам проявит слабость, то и Тосва будет ослаблена.

Как лидер Тосвы, его аура резко меняется, становясь внушительной и властной. Хотя члены Тосвы уважают Майки, они также испытывают определенный страх перед ним и его огромной силой. Майки также переживает за Тосву на личном уровне, что проявляется, когда он решает объединить всю банду, чтобы отомстить за друга одного из ее членов. Несмотря на свою внушительную ауру лидера Тосвы, Майки в душе остается ребенком. У него детские наклонности, и он любит спать, когда ему вздумается.

События, происходящие на протяжении всей истории, заставляют Майки быстро взрослеть. Он по-прежнему остается невероятно харизматичным лидером, но теперь в его душе живет скрытая тоска. Действительно, внутри Майки существует великая тьма. Он вынужден нести бремя тревожного прошлого, колеблясь между правильным путем и поддаваясь этой тьме. Обычно он скрывает это своей беззаботной улыбкой. Без правильных людей, которые могли бы направлять его, он развращается, превращаясь в одного из самых отвратительных преступников современности. Такемичи ставит перед собой большую задачу — сделать так, чтобы Майки никогда больше не сбился с правильного пути.

Даже в тех случаях, когда Майки поддается этой тьме, существуют противоречивые аспекты его личности и противоречивое поведение. Видно, что его привлекает и интересует жизнь, полная насилия, он совершает многочисленные злодеяния или иным образом позволяет своим исполнителям совершать их без каких-либо видимых признаков эмоциональной реакции, ведет себя с безразличием и холодным лицом, способен ранить или даже застрелить своих близких друзей. В то же время он пытается дистанцироваться от своих друзей, вероятно, зная, что не сможет контролировать свои импульсы, пытаясь отделить себя от центрального командования своей бандой, и даже доходит до попытки самоубийства в поисках утешения и способа положить конец хаосу, который он сам же и создавал.

Центральным катализатором этой тьмы является утрата. Когда близкие Майки страдают или умирают, это влияет на Майки на очень личном уровне, вплоть до того, что позже он заявляет, что их души ведут его, к удивлению и беспокойству всех присутствующих, которые сомневаются в правдивости этих заявлений. Вместе с увеличением количества жертв, психическое и эмоциональное состояние Майки ухудшается. Хотя он все еще способен вести себя спокойно и нормально, последствия растущей темноты становятся все более очевидными даже для самого Майки. Именно в результате этой потери Майки становится уязвимым для манипуляций, что впоследствии приводит к деградации его морального компаса. Фактически, в каждой временной линии с темным будущим краеугольный камень был заложен смертью самых близких для Майки людей, что позволило третьим лицам заполнить пустоту в его сердце злом.

История

У Майки нет родителей, поэтому он жил у дедушки вместе с Эммой и Шиничиро, который, как говорит Майки, заменил им родителей. В 2003 году он вместе с Рюгуджи, Баджи, Мицуей, Пачином и Казуторой основали банду Тосва, где Майки стал её главой.

Навыки

Авторитет

Как лидер Тосвы, Майки имеет абсолютный контроль над членами банды. Его присутствие способно сплотить всю банду, увеличивая силу каждого, делая Тосву невероятно грозным и опасным противником для её врагов.

Боевое Мастерство

Майки считается самым сильным членом Тосвы и, возможно, во всей серии Токийские卍Мстители с боевой точки зрения. Его эпитет «Непобедимый Майки» говорит о его силе и о том, как его почитают в других группировках . Он достаточно силен, чтобы одним ударом ноги вывести из строя других членов элитной банды, а его враги часто отмечают, что не могут поверить, что он всего лишь подросток.

Он предпочитает удары ногами, так как они наносят гораздо больший урон и устраняют недостаток роста, позволяя ему сражаться с высокими противниками. Хотя у него отличные способности к ударам, его удары ногами разбивают автомобили. Разрушительная сила его ног настолько печально известна, что его удары считаются «ядерными».^[6]

Помимо своих бойцовских качеств, Майки обладает выдающимися физическими данными, проявляющимися во многих аспектах. Например, его молниеносные рефлексы делают его невосприимчивым к неожиданным атакам.^[7] Его сила ног такова, что он может не только поднять держащего его человека одной ногой, но и использовать эту же ногу для нанесения сокрушительного моментального нокаутирующего удара другому противнику, мгновенно побеждая обоих.

Позже было показано, что объединенные силы Дракена, Мицуи, Чифую и Пе-яна не смогли победить Майки.

Боевые Искусства

В отличие от большинства преступников, Майки имеет реальный опыт в боевых искусствах, который оттачивался в нем с самого детства. Он также был признан вундеркиндом. Благодаря этому его боевое чутье, гибкость и рефлексы не имеют себе равных.

Его фирменным и завершающим приемом является высокий правый круговой удар, который выполняется с ослепительной скоростью в висок противника, что застает врасплох всех, кроме самых сильных противников. Он захватывает голову соперника и ударяет ее о землю. Почти все, кто попадает под этот удар, мгновенно оказываются в нокауте. Этот удар также выполнялся левой ногой Майки.

Выносливость

Майки также демонстрирует удивительную выносливость и стойкость. Ему наносили удары, которые могли бы вырубить большинство людей, но он все равно отряхивался и продолжал бороться. Несколько раз, когда его вырубали, он быстро приходил в себя. Даже когда его избивают и он получает потенциально смертельные повреждения, его наступательные способности ничуть не уменьшаются, вплоть до того, что он способен сбить противника с ног одним ударом головой, несмотря на то, что его уже неоднократно били трубой.

Харизма

Майки наделен несравненной харизмой, что отмечают как инсайдеры, так и конкурирующие преступники, что позволяет ему держать свою команду в узде и завоевывать уважение других лидеров банд. Однако эта харизма — обоюдоострый меч, поскольку, хотя он способен сплотить и повести под своим знаменем весь преступный мир, эта сила может легко исказиться и стать невероятно разрушительной. Манипулируя Майки во зло, третьи лица способны эффективно использовать харизму Майки в своих целях, создавая самые опасные банды, возможные в настоящем во множестве временных линий, и правя за кулисами как истинные лидеры.

Интуиция

У Майки довольно уникальное и довольно острое чувство интуиции, проявляющееся в различных, в некоторой степени сверхъестественных способах. При первой встрече с Такемичи он каким-то образом смог определить, что это не обычный школьник, хотя он не мог полностью понять истинную природу Такемичи и оставался несколько подозрительным в отношении того, кем и чем он является, из-за способности в некоторой степени предсказывать будущие события. Когда Такемичи схватил Майки за руку в настоящем, совершив путешествие на 10 лет назад в прошлое, Майки того времени смог почувствовать, что Такемичи снова совершил прыжок во времени.

Другое проявление интуиции возникает в результате его глубокой связи с друзьями. Благодаря этому Майки способен улавливать их волю. Он правильно понял, что Мицуя собирается что-то сделать в рождественскую ночь, и даже определил его местонахождение, чем спас своих друзей из затруднительного положения. Он утверждает, что его направляли души старшего брата и Баджи.^[8][9]

Знания в области механики

Будучи младшим братом Шиничиро, эксперта-механика, Майки обладает обширными знаниями о механизмах, в частности о мотоциклах. Он может хорошо чинить и собирать части мотоцикла.

Plot[edit]

First arc[edit]

Takemichi Hanagaki, a 26-year-old freeter, learns one day that his middle school ex-girlfriend, Hinata Tachibana, as well as her younger brother Naoto, have been killed by the Tokyo Manji Gang. When Takemichi is pushed in front of a train, he teleports exactly 12 years into the past to 2005. While reliving his middle school years, Takemichi meets with Naoto and divulges the exact date he and Hinata will die. When they shake hands, Takemichi is suddenly transported back to the present, creating a time paradox where Naoto survives and is now a detective. Naoto deduces that every time they hold hands, Takemichi is transported 12 years into the past. Using his knowledge from the future, Takemichi vows to save Hinata.

In the past, Takemichi’s friends are forced into underground matches led by Kiyomasa, a member of the Tokyo Manji Gang. Takemichi’s determination to protect them gains the respect of the gang’s leader, Mikey. Takemichi discovers that his new friendship with Mikey prevented one of his friends, Akkun, from going to jail in the present. However, after Akkun commits suicide out of fear, Takemichi realizes the Tokyo Manji Gang presents a stronger threat to his friends than he initially thought.

After traveling back to the past, Takemichi finds that the Tokyo Manji Gang is declaring war on Moebius, a rival gang, to avenge Pah-chin’s friend. Takemichi learns that Mikey’s second-in-command, Draken, will eventually be killed and lead to Mikey becoming violent. Draken survives the rumble, but Pah-chin turns himself to the police after stabbing Moebius’ leader, Osanai. This causes infighting within the Tokyo Manji Gang, as they disagree on how to help Pah-chin.

Takemichi resolves Mikey and Draken’s dispute; however, on August 3, 2005, the Tokyo Manji Gang are attacked by a group of Moebius members, who are led by Valhalla member Shūji Hanma. Takemichi learns that Peh-yan colluded with them out of anger for Mikey and Draken letting Pah-chin be arrested, while Kiyomasa had stabbed Draken for humiliating him and causing him to be exiled from the Tokyo Manji Gang. The Tokyo Manji Gang wins the fight and Draken recovers from his injuries.

Valhalla / Bloody Halloween arc[edit]

Takemichi returns to the present, only to find out that Hinata and his friends still die in the current timeline. With only the clue that Tetta Kisaki transformed the Tokyo Manji Gang into a violent organization, Takemichi returns to the past to find that Kisaki has recently joined the gang, using Pah-chin’s absence to become his division’s new captain. Moreover, first division captain Keisuke Baji is leaving to join Valhalla, after being recruited by Kazutora Hanemiya, a former co-founder of the Tokyo Manji Gang. Mikey promises Takemichi that he will remove Kisaki from the gang if he is able to bring Baji back. With that, Takemichi is officially made a member of the Tokyo Manji Gang under Takashi Mitsuya’s division.

Takemichi discovers that Mikey holds a grudge against Kazutora for killing his older brother, Shinichiro, two years ago. In addition, Takemichi learns through Chifuyu Matsuno that Baji pretended to defect from the gang to investigate Kisaki. Furthermore, he learns that Kisaki had created Valhalla for Mikey to be its leader, and the Tokyo Manji Gang will eventually be absorbed into Valhalla after a rumble on October 31, 2005 known as «Bloody Halloween»; their loss had been caused by Mikey killing Kazutora out of rage over killing Baji.

During Bloody Halloween, Baji attempts to stop Kisaki, but Kisaki and Hanma convince Kazutora to stab him as planned. Though the Tokyo Manji Gang wins, Takemichi is unable to prevent Baji’s death. Moreover, Valhalla is absorbed into the group, and Kisaki uses their defeat to raise his status within the Tokyo Manji Gang. However, Takemichi is able to prevent Mikey from killing Kazutora, and Kazutora decides to turn himself into the police. Takemichi is then made the captain of the first division as Baji’s successor.

Black Dragons / Christmas Showdown arc[edit]

After returning to the present, Takemichi once again discovers that the Tokyo Manji Gang has grown into a large-scale crime organization after absorbing the Black Dragons, and his friends still die. When he travels back to the past, he learns that Hakkai Shiba is forced to leave the Tokyo Manji Gang and join the Black Dragons under the orders of his abusive older brother and the Black Dragons’ current leader, Taiju, an event that affects the Tokyo Manji Gang’s merge with the Black Dragons. Mitsuya makes a deal with Taiju that he will allow Hakkai to join on the condition that Yuzuha, the Shiba brothers’ sister, no longer works for the Black Dragons, nor will Taiju be allowed to assault her. Before bidding them farewell, Hakkai tells Takemichi and Chifuyu in secret that Taiju has no intention of keeping his promise and that he plans to kill him soon to free himself and Yuzuha.

Takemichi asks the Tokyo Manji Gang for help, but they decline to intervene, as breaking the agreement would reflect poorly on Mitsuya. However, he and Chifuyu reluctantly succeed in only getting the help of Kisaki and Hanma. Together, they learn from Koko and Inupi, two members of the Black Dragons, that Hakkai plans on murdering Taiju on December 24, 2005. On December 24, Takemichi confronts them, but he discovers that Kisaki and Hanma had betrayed and abandoned him. However, Chifuyu escapes and enlists Mitsuya for help in defeating Taiju.

After inadvertently preventing Taiju’s death, Takemichi realizes that in the original timeline, Yuzuha had killed him after being coerced by Kisaki, which then led to Hakkai taking the blame for her and being forced to follow his orders. Takemichi convinces Hakkai to stand up to Taiju in order to save Yuzuha, and with Mikey and Draken’s timely arrival, the Black Dragons are defeated. After their disbandment, Koko and Inupi carry the titles of co-leaders of the Black Dragons’ 11th generation and join the Tokyo Manji Gang as Takemichi’s subordinates. Having learned about Kisaki’s betrayal, Mikey removes him from their group. Mikey’s decision also causes Hanma and the former members of Moebius and Valhalla to leave, downsizing the Tokyo Manji Gang by 350 members.

Tenjiku arc[edit]

By the time Takemichi returns to the present, Tenjiku absorbed the Tokyo Manji Gang after an event known as the «Kanto incident» and left Mikey demoralized to the point of killing all his friends. While Takemichi and Naoto investigate Tenjiku, both of them learn that Kisaki is a member and that Shinichiro is the founder of the Black Dragons. When they are ambushed by Tenjiku members, they become fatally wounded, and Takemichi travels to the past before they both die. Hinata overhears Takemichi mourning Naoto’s death, as well as the fact that he had been time-traveling.

Takemichi learns that Tenjiku’s leader, Izana Kurokawa, is a close relative of the Sanos, and he holds a grudge against Mikey out of jealousy, especially when Shinichiro intended for Mikey to become the leader of the Black Dragons. In the midst of this, Mucho and his vice captain, Sanzu, have joined Tenjiku, and Koko is forced to join them. Impressed by Takemichi’s resolve, Inupi passes his title as the leader of the Black Dragons to Takemichi and reveals to the Tokyo Manji Gang that Izana is planning an attack on the Black Dragons’ 11th anniversary, February 22, 2006. On the day of their fight, Takemichi loses the support from the other captains, as Kisaki and Hanma have severely injured Mitsuya and fourth division captain Smiley. In addition, Kisaki kills Mikey’s half-sister, Emma, leaving Mikey and Draken distraught. Nevertheless, Takemichi rallies the rest of the Tokyo Manji Gang to fight Tenjiku, with only 50 members fighting against Tenjiku’s 400 members.

Near the end of the fight, Mikey and Draken arrive after learning from Hinata that Takemichi had been time-traveling to save them. As the Tenjiku are forced to admit defeat, Kisaki shoots Kakucho, Tenjiku’s second-in-command, and Izana, fatally wounding the latter, and flees. When Takemichi confronts him, Kisaki confesses that his reason for taking over the Tokyo Manji Gang was to boost his social status and woo Hinata. He also views Takemichi as an enemy for stealing her attention and has Hinata killed in every present timeline for rejecting him. In the midst of this, Kisaki is hit by a truck and dies. After the Kanto incident, Hanma goes on the run, while Mikey decides to dissolve the Tokyo Manji Gang, allowing all of its members to move on.

Final arc[edit]

Takemichi returns to the present to find out that his friends are alive and successful, but Mikey, who has not been in contact with any of his friends for the past 12 years, has established a new gang called Bonten. Takemichi is no longer able to travel to the past through Naoto, but when he saves Mikey from jumping from a building, he suddenly travels 10 years into the past to 2008. Takemichi is now in high school and learns that since the Tokyo Manji Gang has been disbanded, there is currently a power struggle between Rokuhara Tandai, Brahman, and Mikey’s new gang, the Kanto Manji Gang. In hopes of reaching Mikey, Takemichi joins Brahman, led by Senju Kawaragi, and suddenly develops the ability to see into the future. On July 7, 2008, Rokuhara Tandai launches an attack on Takemichi and Senju. Takemichi prevents Senju’s death, but Draken is killed while protecting them. As a result, a brawl, known as the Battle of the Three Deities, erupts between all three gangs and ends with Mikey killing South, Rokuhara Tandai’s leader. The Kanto Manji Gang wins and absorbs Rokuhara Tandai; meanwhile, Senju disbands Brahman in order to stop Mikey from killing Takemichi.

One month later, Takemichi recreates the Tokyo Manji Gang and challenges the Kanto Manji Gang to a fight on September 9. During the fight, Sanzu attempts to drive a train into the battlefield to kill the Tokyo Manji Gang. Though Takemichi is able to prevent this, Kakucho dies in the process. Taiju returns and stops Sanzu, but Mikey defeats everyone on the battlefield. When Takemichi confronts Mikey, Mikey reveals that he died in the original timeline and Shinichiro had traveled back in time to save him by stealing the ability from a homeless man who he murdered. However, as a result, a curse manifested in the form of violent behavior that lead to Shinichiro’s death and Takemichi inheriting his ability. In the present, Takemichi allows Mikey to succumb to his violent nature to fight him. Mikey mortally wounds Takemichi, but upon holding his hand, both of them return to 1998 with their memories in tact. Both Mikey and Takemichi work together to avert the previous timelines’ tragedies and unite all gangs across Japan for eleven years, thus successfully creates a peaceful timeline.

Anime[edit]

In 2021, Western localized versions of the anime censored the Buddhist manji swastika (卍) symbol used by the Tokyo Manji Gang, in order to avoid potential controversy that may arise from confusion with the similar-looking Nazi swastika (卐) symbol. The removal, carried out by the Japanese licensors and affecting all versions of the anime officially distributed outside Japan, has itself proven controversial, as some fans have criticized the resulting version both on technical and freedom-of-speech grounds.^[176][177] However, the official Southeast Asian and South Asian releases of the series by Muse Communication started releasing the uncensored versions later on, leaving Crunchyroll the only official streaming site outside of Japan to have the anime censored.^[178]

Plot[edit]

First arc[edit]

Takemichi Hanagaki, a 26-year-old freeter, learns one day that his middle school ex-girlfriend, Hinata Tachibana, as well as her younger brother Naoto, have been killed by the Tokyo Manji Gang. When Takemichi is pushed in front of a train, he teleports exactly 12 years into the past to 2005. While reliving his middle school years, Takemichi meets with Naoto and divulges the exact date he and Hinata will die. When they shake hands, Takemichi is suddenly transported back to the present, creating a time paradox where Naoto survives and is now a detective. Naoto deduces that every time they hold hands, Takemichi is transported 12 years into the past. Using his knowledge from the future, Takemichi vows to save Hinata.

In the past, Takemichi’s friends are forced into underground matches led by Kiyomasa, a member of the Tokyo Manji Gang. Takemichi’s determination to protect them gains the respect of the gang’s leader, Mikey. Takemichi discovers that his new friendship with Mikey prevented one of his friends, Akkun, from going to jail in the present. However, after Akkun commits suicide out of fear, Takemichi realizes the Tokyo Manji Gang presents a stronger threat to his friends than he initially thought.

After traveling back to the past, Takemichi finds that the Tokyo Manji Gang is declaring war on Moebius, a rival gang, to avenge Pah-chin’s friend. Takemichi learns that Mikey’s second-in-command, Draken, will eventually be killed and lead to Mikey becoming violent. Draken survives the rumble, but Pah-chin turns himself to the police after stabbing Moebius’ leader, Osanai. This causes infighting within the Tokyo Manji Gang, as they disagree on how to help Pah-chin.

Takemichi resolves Mikey and Draken’s dispute; however, on August 3, 2005, the Tokyo Manji Gang are attacked by a group of Moebius members, who are led by Valhalla member Shūji Hanma. Takemichi learns that Peh-yan colluded with them out of anger for Mikey and Draken letting Pah-chin be arrested, while Kiyomasa had stabbed Draken for humiliating him and causing him to be exiled from the Tokyo Manji Gang. The Tokyo Manji Gang wins the fight and Draken recovers from his injuries.

Valhalla / Bloody Halloween arc[edit]

Takemichi returns to the present, only to find out that Hinata and his friends still die in the current timeline. With only the clue that Tetta Kisaki transformed the Tokyo Manji Gang into a violent organization, Takemichi returns to the past to find that Kisaki has recently joined the gang, using Pah-chin’s absence to become his division’s new captain. Moreover, first division captain Keisuke Baji is leaving to join Valhalla, after being recruited by Kazutora Hanemiya, a former co-founder of the Tokyo Manji Gang. Mikey promises Takemichi that he will remove Kisaki from the gang if he is able to bring Baji back. With that, Takemichi is officially made a member of the Tokyo Manji Gang under Takashi Mitsuya’s division.

Takemichi discovers that Mikey holds a grudge against Kazutora for killing his older brother, Shinichiro, two years ago. In addition, Takemichi learns through Chifuyu Matsuno that Baji pretended to defect from the gang to investigate Kisaki. Furthermore, he learns that Kisaki had created Valhalla for Mikey to be its leader, and the Tokyo Manji Gang will eventually be absorbed into Valhalla after a rumble on October 31, 2005 known as «Bloody Halloween»; their loss had been caused by Mikey killing Kazutora out of rage over killing Baji.

During Bloody Halloween, Baji attempts to stop Kisaki, but Kisaki and Hanma convince Kazutora to stab him as planned. Though the Tokyo Manji Gang wins, Takemichi is unable to prevent Baji’s death. Moreover, Valhalla is absorbed into the group, and Kisaki uses their defeat to raise his status within the Tokyo Manji Gang. However, Takemichi is able to prevent Mikey from killing Kazutora, and Kazutora decides to turn himself into the police. Takemichi is then made the captain of the first division as Baji’s successor.

Black Dragons / Christmas Showdown arc[edit]

After returning to the present, Takemichi once again discovers that the Tokyo Manji Gang has grown into a large-scale crime organization after absorbing the Black Dragons, and his friends still die. When he travels back to the past, he learns that Hakkai Shiba is forced to leave the Tokyo Manji Gang and join the Black Dragons under the orders of his abusive older brother and the Black Dragons’ current leader, Taiju, an event that affects the Tokyo Manji Gang’s merge with the Black Dragons. Mitsuya makes a deal with Taiju that he will allow Hakkai to join on the condition that Yuzuha, the Shiba brothers’ sister, no longer works for the Black Dragons, nor will Taiju be allowed to assault her. Before bidding them farewell, Hakkai tells Takemichi and Chifuyu in secret that Taiju has no intention of keeping his promise and that he plans to kill him soon to free himself and Yuzuha.

Takemichi asks the Tokyo Manji Gang for help, but they decline to intervene, as breaking the agreement would reflect poorly on Mitsuya. However, he and Chifuyu reluctantly succeed in only getting the help of Kisaki and Hanma. Together, they learn from Koko and Inupi, two members of the Black Dragons, that Hakkai plans on murdering Taiju on December 24, 2005. On December 24, Takemichi confronts them, but he discovers that Kisaki and Hanma had betrayed and abandoned him. However, Chifuyu escapes and enlists Mitsuya for help in defeating Taiju.

After inadvertently preventing Taiju’s death, Takemichi realizes that in the original timeline, Yuzuha had killed him after being coerced by Kisaki, which then led to Hakkai taking the blame for her and being forced to follow his orders. Takemichi convinces Hakkai to stand up to Taiju in order to save Yuzuha, and with Mikey and Draken’s timely arrival, the Black Dragons are defeated. After their disbandment, Koko and Inupi carry the titles of co-leaders of the Black Dragons’ 11th generation and join the Tokyo Manji Gang as Takemichi’s subordinates. Having learned about Kisaki’s betrayal, Mikey removes him from their group. Mikey’s decision also causes Hanma and the former members of Moebius and Valhalla to leave, downsizing the Tokyo Manji Gang by 350 members.

Tenjiku arc[edit]

By the time Takemichi returns to the present, Tenjiku absorbed the Tokyo Manji Gang after an event known as the «Kanto incident» and left Mikey demoralized to the point of killing all his friends. While Takemichi and Naoto investigate Tenjiku, both of them learn that Kisaki is a member and that Shinichiro is the founder of the Black Dragons. When they are ambushed by Tenjiku members, they become fatally wounded, and Takemichi travels to the past before they both die. Hinata overhears Takemichi mourning Naoto’s death, as well as the fact that he had been time-traveling.

Takemichi learns that Tenjiku’s leader, Izana Kurokawa, is a close relative of the Sanos, and he holds a grudge against Mikey out of jealousy, especially when Shinichiro intended for Mikey to become the leader of the Black Dragons. In the midst of this, Mucho and his vice captain, Sanzu, have joined Tenjiku, and Koko is forced to join them. Impressed by Takemichi’s resolve, Inupi passes his title as the leader of the Black Dragons to Takemichi and reveals to the Tokyo Manji Gang that Izana is planning an attack on the Black Dragons’ 11th anniversary, February 22, 2006. On the day of their fight, Takemichi loses the support from the other captains, as Kisaki and Hanma have severely injured Mitsuya and fourth division captain Smiley. In addition, Kisaki kills Mikey’s half-sister, Emma, leaving Mikey and Draken distraught. Nevertheless, Takemichi rallies the rest of the Tokyo Manji Gang to fight Tenjiku, with only 50 members fighting against Tenjiku’s 400 members.

Near the end of the fight, Mikey and Draken arrive after learning from Hinata that Takemichi had been time-traveling to save them. As the Tenjiku are forced to admit defeat, Kisaki shoots Kakucho, Tenjiku’s second-in-command, and Izana, fatally wounding the latter, and flees. When Takemichi confronts him, Kisaki confesses that his reason for taking over the Tokyo Manji Gang was to boost his social status and woo Hinata. He also views Takemichi as an enemy for stealing her attention and has Hinata killed in every present timeline for rejecting him. In the midst of this, Kisaki is hit by a truck and dies. After the Kanto incident, Hanma goes on the run, while Mikey decides to dissolve the Tokyo Manji Gang, allowing all of its members to move on.

Final arc[edit]

Takemichi returns to the present to find out that his friends are alive and successful, but Mikey, who has not been in contact with any of his friends for the past 12 years, has established a new gang called Bonten. Takemichi is no longer able to travel to the past through Naoto, but when he saves Mikey from jumping from a building, he suddenly travels 10 years into the past to 2008. Takemichi is now in high school and learns that since the Tokyo Manji Gang has been disbanded, there is currently a power struggle between Rokuhara Tandai, Brahman, and Mikey’s new gang, the Kanto Manji Gang. In hopes of reaching Mikey, Takemichi joins Brahman, led by Senju Kawaragi, and suddenly develops the ability to see into the future. On July 7, 2008, Rokuhara Tandai launches an attack on Takemichi and Senju. Takemichi prevents Senju’s death, but Draken is killed while protecting them. As a result, a brawl, known as the Battle of the Three Deities, erupts between all three gangs and ends with Mikey killing South, Rokuhara Tandai’s leader. The Kanto Manji Gang wins and absorbs Rokuhara Tandai; meanwhile, Senju disbands Brahman in order to stop Mikey from killing Takemichi.

One month later, Takemichi recreates the Tokyo Manji Gang and challenges the Kanto Manji Gang to a fight on September 9. During the fight, Sanzu attempts to drive a train into the battlefield to kill the Tokyo Manji Gang. Though Takemichi is able to prevent this, Kakucho dies in the process. Taiju returns and stops Sanzu, but Mikey defeats everyone on the battlefield. When Takemichi confronts Mikey, Mikey reveals that he died in the original timeline and Shinichiro had traveled back in time to save him by stealing the ability from a homeless man who he murdered. However, as a result, a curse manifested in the form of violent behavior that lead to Shinichiro’s death and Takemichi inheriting his ability. In the present, Takemichi allows Mikey to succumb to his violent nature to fight him. Mikey mortally wounds Takemichi, but upon holding his hand, both of them return to 1998 with their memories in tact. Both Mikey and Takemichi work together to avert the previous timelines’ tragedies and unite all gangs across Japan for eleven years, thus successfully creates a peaceful timeline.

The removal, carried out by the Japanese licensors and affecting all versions of the anime officially distributed outside Japan, has itself proven controversial, as some fans have criticized the resulting version both on technical and freedom-of-speech grounds.^[176][177] However, the official Southeast Asian and South Asian releases of the series by Muse Communication started releasing the uncensored versions later on, leaving Crunchyroll the only official streaming site outside of Japan to have the anime censored.^[178]

Личность Майки Токио Мстители

В Tokyo Revengers Майки, как правило, веселый подросток, который любит играть в игры и подшучивать над людьми, которых он считает своими ближайшими друзьями. Майки предан им и полон решимости защитить их уважение. Известно, что он не проявляет никаких признаков слабости, потому что Томан считает, что он является основой и опорой для Томана Если Бы Томан проявил слабости, Томан также был бы слабым.

Как лидер Томана его внешность резко меняется, становясь устрашающей и могущественной. Хотя члены банды Томана восхищаются Майки, но они также чувствуют элемент страха перед Майки и его невероятной силой. Майки также беспокоится о Томане в личном масштабе, что он демонстрирует, когда решает объединить всю банду в поисках мести друзьям членов. Несмотря на свою впечатляющую внешность в качестве лидера Томана, Майки остается ребенком в душе. Майки имеет детский нрав и любит спать, когда захочет.

События, которые разворачиваются на протяжении всей истории, заставляют Майки быстро взрослеть. Майки по-прежнему харизматичный лидер, однако есть скрытая печаль, которая скрыта под поверхностью. В сердце Майки есть огромная темная сторона. Майки вынужден нести бремя тревожного прошлого, постоянно пытаясь найти правильный путь и поддаваясь тьме. Он часто скрывает свое прошлое, улыбаясь с самодовольной улыбкой. Если у него нет нужных людей, чтобы помочь ему, он коррумпирован и становится одним из самых злобных преступников нашего времени. Главная цель Такемичи — гарантировать, что Майки больше не сойдет с правильного пути.

Тем не менее, даже когда Майки поддается этой темноте, есть противоречивые аспекты его характера и его поведения, которые противоречивы. Майки изображается как привлеченный и стремящийся жить жизнью насилия, часто совершая бесчеловечные действия или позволяя своим сообщникам совершать их без видимой эмоциональной реакции, делая это с ледяным лицом. Он даже способен причинить вред или сбить близких людей, которые находятся рядом с ним. Однако он пытается дистанцироваться от своих товарищей по банде, так как он, вероятно, будет способен контролировать свои побуждения в долгосрочной перспективе. Он пытается удержать себя от центрального контроля своей команды и даже до самоубийства, чтобы найти утешение и возможность положить конец хаосу, в который он вносит свой вклад.

Основной причиной этого темного времени является потеря. Когда члены семьи Майки страдают или умирают и страдают, это влияет на Майки в личном масштабе, до такой степени, что он утверждает, что их души помогают ему, что удивляет и удивляет всех, кто сомневается в правдивости этих утверждений. В дополнение к растущему количеству тел, психическое и эмоциональное состояние Майки ухудшается. Хотя он все еще способен быть спокойным и нормальным, последствия темнеющего состояния становятся более очевидными даже для самого Майки. Это происходит из-за этой потери, которая делает Майки восприимчивым к манипуляциям и, следовательно, ухудшает его моральную совесть. Во всей временной шкале, которая имеет темное будущее, краеугольный камень был активирован из-за смерти тех, кто был ближе всего к Майки, что позволило третьим сторонам заполнить пробел в его сердце злом.

Навыки и способности Майки Токио Мстители

Авторитет

Как глава Томана, Майки имеет абсолютный контроль над своими членами. Присутствие Майки может увеличить силу всей группы в целом, усиливая мощь всех членов и делая Томана чрезвычайно мощным и опасным противником против врагов.

Боевое мастерство

В Tokyo Revengers Майки считается самым могущественным членом Toman и, возможно, всем тем, у кого самый боевой потенциал в серии. Прозвище «непобедимый» Майки является отражением его силы, а также уважения, которое он заслужил среди других групп преступников. Майки достаточно силен, чтобы отбиться от элитных членов банды всего одним ударом. его враги часто говорят, что они не могут поверить, что парень всего лишь подросток.

Он больше склонен к ударам ногами, чем к ударам, поскольку это наносит гораздо больший урон и устраняет недостаток высоты, что делает его более способным конкурировать с высокими противниками. Несмотря на то, что у него есть отличные ударные способности, его удары разбили транспортные средства. Разрушительная сила его ног знаменита тем, что его удары часто называют «ядерными».

Помимо своей боеспособности, Майки обладает потрясающим физическим состоянием, которое проявляется во многом. Например, его молниеносные рефлексы делают его неуязвимым для неожиданных атак. Сила его ног настолько сильна, что он может не только поднять целого человека только одной из своих ног, но и использовать эту ногу, чтобы выпустить разрушительный немедленный нокаут-удар по противнику и победить их обоих в мгновение ока.

Затем выясняется, что сила, состоящая из Дракена, Мицуя, Чифую и Пех-яна, не смогла одолеть Майки.

Боевые искусства

В отличие от большинства преступников, Майки имеет реальную подготовку по боевым искусствам, которая была отточена в нем с детства. Майки также был признан исключительным спортсменом. Это потому, что его боевая проницательность, ловкость и рефлексы не имеют себе равных.

Его фирменным ходом является прямой правый круглый удар, выполненный с ослепительной скоростью в висок противника, который оттолкнул даже самых сильных противников. Удар зацепляет голову противника, а затем ударяет его о землю. Большинство людей, пораженных этим ударом, выпадают сразу. Удар также может быть выполнен левым бедром Майки.

Выносливость

Майки также доказал, что является замечательным спортсменом на выносливость и упорство. Он был поражен ударами, которые могли бы нокаутировать многих людей, но Майки способен стряхнуть кандалы и продолжить борьбу. Когда были сбиты с ног без сознания, но проснулись довольно быстро. Даже после того, как он был избит и получил то, что может быть смертельной травмой, но его способность атаковать не уменьшилась даже до такой степени, что он смог нокаутировать противника всего одним ударом головой, несмотря на то, что уже неоднократно ударялся трубами.

Харизма

Майки наделен уникальной харизмой, которую отмечают как инсайдеры, так и другие преступники. Это позволяет Майки держать свою команду в порядке и завоевывать уважение других главарей банды. Тем не менее, эта харизма является загадкой, поскольку, хотя у него есть потенциал объединить и объединить весь криминальный мир вместо него, однако его харизма может быть изменена и разрушительна. Манипулируя Майки в злую силу, третьи стороны в состоянии использовать силу Майки для продвижения своих планов, создавая некоторые из самых смертоносных банд сегодня в нескольких временных линиях и выдавая себя за настоящих вдохновителей.

Интуиция Майки Токио Мстителей

У Майки очень своеобразное и очень острое чувство восприятия, которое проявляется различными сверхъестественными способами. Когда он впервые встретил Такемичи, мальчик знал, что он не типичный ученик средней школы, но ему было трудно понять природу этого человека, и он был немного скептически настроен по отношению к тому, кем или чем он был на самом деле, потому что он мог в некоторой степени предсказывать будущие события. Когда Такемичи схватил руку Майки в настоящем и отправился на 10 лет назад в прошлое, а затем повернул время вспять, Майки в то время мог видеть, что распределитель времени снова прыгнул.

Другое событие является результатом его тесной дружбы с друзьями. Благодаря этому Майки способен различать их намерения. Он смог понять, что Мицуя планировал действовать в рождественскую ночь, и смог определить, где он находится, тем самым помогая своим друзьям выбраться из ловушки. Он говорит, что душа его брата и Баджи были теми, кто руководил им.

Механические знания

Младший брат Синъитиро, который является опытным механиком Майки, может поделиться своими знаниями о машинах, в частности о мотоциклах. Майки хорошо ремонтирует и собирает компоненты мотоциклов.

Во втором взрослом возрасте Майки имеет короткие черные волосы. Он также имеет надпись дракона на шее, похожую на дракенов, а также на спорт Такаси Мицуя. Он ездит на CB205T, который ранее принадлежал его брату Синъитиро Сано.

В самой последней временной шкале он носит короткие белые волосы, которые имеют среднюю часть его стрижки и татуировку Bonten на затылке. Он имеет тот же дизайн, что и серьги его приемного брата, Идзаны Курокавы. Мужчина считается худым, сумасшедшим и имеет большие мешки век.

1. Насколько силен Сано Мандзиро?

Майки является одним из самых сильных персонажей из Tokyo Revengers, если не самым сильным. Один из величайших источников силы можно найти в его опыте боевых искусств в детстве, как он научился сражаться со своим дедушкой. Интенсивные тренировки в сочетании с его острым чувством юмора и сверхъестественной силой делают его электростанцией, с которой нужно считаться. Его боевое мастерство заслужило прозвище «Непобедимый Майки». Самыми мощными ходами в его арсенале являются взрывные удары.

Человека, который не знает об этом, быстро бросает на пол, когда Майки наносит ему прямой удар по голове. Кроме того, Майки смог нанести такие удары, когда кто-то схватил его за ногу. Он поднимет человека вверх, используя ногу, а затем ударит достаточно, чтобы вытащить свою цель. Любой, кто бросает вызов Майки, должен быть в состоянии справиться с силой этих ударов.

2. Как Сано Мандзиро стал лидером Токио Мандзи?

Майки основал Toman в 2003 году, во время своего первого года в средней школе. Он начал его с пятью своими сверстниками: Рюгудзи «Драккен» Кэн, Мицуя Тааси, Хаясида «Пах-чин» Харуки, Бадзи Кэйсукэ, а также Ханемия Кадзутора. Они не получили обилия признания из-за того, насколько молоды, но они могли водить мотоциклы и блефовать головами против самых престижных.

Было два основных элемента, которые привели к приходу Томана к власти. Томан и оба они связаны с Майки. Во-первых, это его подавляющая сила. Майки был достаточно силен, чтобы свергнуть каждого из членов-основателей Томана. Однако вместо этого он направил свою силу на то, чтобы привести конкурирующие банды к подчинению. Майки также обладает способностью завоевывать сердца благодаря своей пленительной харизме. Он способен лидировать на митингах, вдохновлять и поднимать доверие товарищей по банде благодаря своей харизме и теплоте. Он и его банда грозная сила.

3. Сано Мандзиро хорош или плох?

Майки — это тонкий баланс между добром и злом. Несмотря на то, что он является лидером печально известной байкерской банды, у него есть твердое моральное руководство. Он ценит свою семью и друзей и будет стремиться делать то, что будет лучше для его семьи и друзей, которые могли бы работать на его благо или быть против. В истории Майки есть много случаев, когда ключевые личности в его жизни имели трагический конец и приводили к тому, что его отправляли в темное пространство. Таким образом, Майки порядочный человек, но он очень коррумпирован.

Большинство целей Такемичи, путешествуя в прошлое, заключаются в том, чтобы предотвратить трагическую кончину Майки. Например, если кто-то погиб случайно, это еще один человек, чтобы предотвратить его падение на дно океана. Без поддержки своих друзей, своей щедрости Майки превратился в одного из самых известных главарей банд и самой жестокой группы в современной Японии.
