You guys have been asking for this one for a while, and the time has finally come to bring Izana back into our Tokyo Revengers Inspired Workouts.
We’ve already had Izana join our other Tokyo Revengers characters, but our original Izana Inspired Workout is built around weight training; and the calisthenics members of The SHJ Army spoke up and they want the second variation ASAP.
So here we are.
Izana actually made it onto our list of the most powerful Tokyo Revengers characters coming in at number four AND even onto our list of the most popular Tokyo Revengers characters at number nine.
Which tells you why so many of you guys wanted to second variation…
Izana Kurokawa Stats:
Real Name: Izana Kurokawa
Height: 5’5
Weight: 128 lbs.
Anime: Tokyo Revengers
Powers: No
Izana is right around average height for what we’ve seen among our male anime characters.
Although the growing amount of behemoths within our Anime Workouts Database is bringing that average number up pretty quickly
Wolverine was the shortest spot among comic characters we’ve seen at 5’3, prior to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles coming in at 5’2, (and Gimli even shorter) – but Damian Wayne (Robin) is only 5’4. Goku isn’t that tall either, though, standing only 5’7, with Miles Morales only an inch above him.
One Punch Man falls in at 5’9 right there with Ryu, Nightwing at 5’10, and then Spider-Man, Daredevil, and Green Arrow coming in around 5’11 and Beast joining them.
We’ve had Superman and Eddie Brock’s Venom at 6’3, and Captain America, Scorpion and Batman at 6’2, and Carnage at 6’1. Thor and Cyborg are towering over them at 6’6, Thanos and King right there with them at 6’7, Bane at 6’8, and Deathstroke right below at 6’5, and Black Manta at 6’4.
Ronan and Sagat are 7’5, and Doomsday came in at 8’10, and I doubt any characters are touching that anytime soon.
But, don’t worry if you’re not the same height or weight range.
We write these routines to be utilized by anyone and everyone.

Izana Kurokawa Diet and Nutrition
**Keep in mind: this section will be nearly identical for each hero.**
Every hero needs to still have a good diet.
Unfortunately we can train like them, but I don’t think any of us are suddenly getting their powers, or the ability to magically stop caring about nutrition.
You can’t out train your diet, so I want to still give some pillars for nutrition.
You can start by checking out The Nutrition Pillars on the site, but I’ll break down some more information for you guys as well.
Guys like Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart incorporate 80/20 dieting with big weekly cheat meals, Hugh Jackman, Tom Hopper, Benedict Cumberbatch and Terry Crews utilize intermittent fasting (something I use daily as well), Ariana Grande, Mustafa Shakir and Madelaine Petsch are vegans, Brandon Routh and Frank Grillo opt for paleo, and tons of others utilize their own variations as well.
It’s all about sustainability.
AND, there are a thousand different ways to reach your goals, so finding the most sustainable way is what’s important.
Which is why our Academy utilizes multiple different Nutrition Classes (Greek Gods, Vikings, Spartans, Hunter Gatherers, Monks, Samurais, Minimalists, SuperHumans) to allow people to choose what is right for YOU!
Curious where over a hundred celebs fall in their dietary choices ranging from High Protein and Keto to Vegetarian, Vegan and Intermittent Fasting? Want exclusive celeb meal plans? Check this out.

Izana Kurokawa Routine Research
We’ve made it to “the fun part”.
And, if you don’t know by now, I say that every single time we get to the workout routine research section for character workouts.
To learn more about Izana I”ll be pulling right from his Wiki Fandom again, even though we’ve already broken down his character in our original workout, and they start us off with this:
Izana Kurokawa was Tenjiku’s Boss and the leader of the Eighth Generation Black Dragon. At age 13, he founded the S-62 Generation. He was the adoptive brother of Shinichiro Sano.
Being that his Wiki Fandom is a bit scarce with information on him I’ll also be pulling from his appearance section as well:
Izana was a half-Filipino, half-Japanese teen of average height with large purple eyes, light brown complexion, and straight short bleach blond hair styled in a center-parted undercut. He was most often seen wearing the standard Tenjiku uniform with a red tailcoat and a pair of Hanafuda-derived earrings. In an alternate present timeline, Izana had wavy hair.
From there we can move into his abilities section, which doesn’t have a lot of information, but at least tells us a bit about his overall power level.
Here’s how they break it down for us:
Izana Kurokawa is the leader of Tenjiku, which means he has command over all his subordinates. He is shown to be the strongest member in the entire Tenjiku Gang and is also shown to be able to initially fight on-par with Mikey.
According to, Toman’s Former 5th Division Captain, Yasuhiro Muto, not only is Izana a capable fighter, but what makes him the strongest in Tenjiku is his “Undefeatable Senses“. This enables him to read his opponent’s moves with relative ease and thus is able to counter them.
We are clearly building this workout around an extremely powerful character.
For that reason this workout will definitely be built around an intermediate to advanced level, more-so leaning into advanced.
That means if you’re a beginner you’re going to want to scale down a lot or start with our Beginner Ninja Workout at first.
Check out all The SHJ Programs and start unleashing your inner SuperHuman.
