Takuya Yamamoto is a childhood friend of Takemichi’s and is one of the members of the team that he always hangs out with.
He is an associate of Takemichi in Tokyo Revengers, and is more of a mob character.
Let’s take a closer look at why Takuya Yamamoto is the mastermind behind the whole thing.

[Tokyo Revengers] Takuya Yamamoto is the mastermind?
Takuya Yamamoto is Takemichi’s childhood friend in the story of Tokyo Revengers.
On the other hand, there are some people who say “Isn’t Takuya Yamamoto the mastermind behind the story of Tokyo Revengers?“.
If this is true, it would be a very dark horse development.
Until the middle of the story, it seemed that
- Kisaki is the mastermind of the story.
- Kisaki is doing a time leap.
But at least Kisaki himself denied about the time leap in the 184th chapter of the 21st volume of the manga.
So let’s take a closer look at the reason why Takuya Yamamoto is rumored to be the mastermind.
[Tokyo Revengers] Why is Takuya rumoured to be the mastermind?
This article looks at the reasons and factors behind the rumour that Takuya Yamamoto is the mastermind behind the story of Tokyo Revengers.
Basically, however, there is no information or description that can definitively say that Takuya Yamamoto is the mastermind behind the story, and most of it is delusional.
Takuya is Takemichi’s childhood friend
As I said at the beginning, Takuya Yamamoto is Takemichi’s childhood friend.
Takemichi went to junior high school and high school with Akkun, Makoto, and Yamagishi, but Takuya is the only one who is a childhood friend.
If Takuya is the mastermind, he will be able to know Takemichi’s movements in detail.
So far, there is no mention of Takuya being Takemichi’s childhood friend, but it is possible that this element will become more important in the future.
Takuya’s weakness is a reaction to his time leap?
Takuya Yamamoto is said to be physically weak in the manga.
This is mentioned in the second chapter of the first volume of the manga, when Takuya is sent to a “underground fighting“.
Takuya’s setting may have been a reaction to his repeated time leaps.
However, Takemichi, who has also been doing a lot of time leaps, doesn’t have any physical changes, so this is unlikely.
Takemichi told Takuya about his dream.
In the 182nd chapter of the 21st volume of the manga, Tetta Kisaki talked about an episode from when he was in primary schools.
- Kisaki was fond of Hinata at that time.
- Hinata was fond of Takemichi.
- Kisaki started to stalk Takemichi to find out his life.
When Kisaki was stalking Takemichi, Takemichi told his childhood friend Takuya about his dream of becoming the best delinquent (hero) in Japan.
It is still unclear whether this is just a mob character or a foreshadowing of the mastermind, because Takuya is casually included in the causal relationship between Kisaki and Takemichi at that time.
Takuya is a mob character that no one knows well.
As we have discussed so far, Takuya Yamamoto is a mob character by all accounts, a character that no one has marked.
That’s why some people say that he might be the mastermind behind the whole thing. If Takuya is the mastermind, it will be a surprising.
However, there are some contradictions in Takuya’s role as the mastermind, so we’ll take a closer look in the next chapter.
[Tokyo Revengers] The contradictions in the Takuya mastermind theory in Tokyo Revengers
We’ve talked about Takuya being the mastermind behind all of this, but as we’ve said before, it’s mostly just a fantasy.
If Takuya is the mastermind, there are some unexplainable inconsistencies and contradictions, which we will discuss in detail here.
The contradiction of Takuya’s mastermind theory: He has no reason to kill Hina and Takemichi
First of all, Takuya, unlike Kesaki, has no reason to kill Hinata or Takemichi.
In the case of Kesaki,
- He always loved Hina.
- He became the best delinquent in Japan for Hinata.
- He proposes to Hinata in the future.
- He was immediately rejected.
Because of this situation, Kisaki killed Hinata out of spite. And he also tried to kill Takemichi out of jealousy.
Takuya, on the other hand, doesn’t have any of these reasons, and he has no motive to manipulate Kisaki from behind the scenes.
The contradiction of Takuya’s mastermind theory: He has no connection with Mikey.
If the mastermind behind the Tokyo Revengers is none other than Kisaki, then Mikey’s fall into the darkness must be one of the masterminds’ schemes.
On the other hand, even though Takuya was a member of Tokyo Manji gang’s 1st division, he was only a member, so he never even had the chance to talk to Mikey.
Therefore, even if Takuya is the mastermind behind Mikey’s fall into the darkness, it would be too difficult for him to have any contact with him.
Conclusion of “[Tokyo Revengers] Takuya Yamamoto is the mastermind? What’s the truth behind the rumours?”
In this article, we have discussed the theory that Takuya Yamamoto is the mastermind behind the Tokyo Revengers.
We think that this is just a rumour at the moment, but if it turns out that Takuya is the mastermind, we’ll be very surprised.
We’ll be keeping an eye on the future of Tokyo Revengers.
