We’re back for another Tokyo Revengers Inspired Workout, this time bringing in our time traveling protagonist: Takemichi!
He isn’t one of the leaders of Toman, like Mikey and Draken, so he didn’t quite have the most requests – but here we are now!
It’ll be fun to add another calisthenics workout to our Anime Workouts Database, though (which this one will be), and it’ll also be helpful for when our Tokyo Revengers join our Workout Placement Quizzes.
Tokyo Revengers is one of the most popular anime out there right now (hence why we rushed our mini database for them), so if you’re excited for this one: don’t worry, there’s more coming!
Takemichi Stats:
Real Name: Takemichi
Height: 5’5
Weight: 121 lbs.
Anime: Tokyo Revengers
Powers: Yes
Takemichi is right around an average height range among male anime characters we’ve seen.
Although there definitely is a taller range among our behemoths as well.
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.

Takemichi 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.

Takemichi Workout 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 Takemichi we’ll be pulling right from his Wiki Fandom page.
They start us off with a bit of an intro bio for him here:
Takemichi Hanagaki, or Takemitchy, is the story’s protagonist and a young man who can travel back in time: a Time Leaper. In order to save his girlfriend Hinata Tachibana and over time, everyone he comes to care about, he decides to become a top member of the Tokyo Manji Gang in order to do so.
From there his Wiki page goes on to give us a TON of information about his powers and abilities.
They lead with a bunch of information we won’t be able to necessarily use for a routine, but is worth noting about Takemichi:
- Authority
- Charisma
- Reputation
Then they also go into breaking down a handful of information that we CAN use.
Here’s how it goes:
Endurance: Takemichi is nowhere near the strongest fighter, but he is noted to be one of the, if not the most, resilient fighter thus far. He has been shown to take blows that would have knocked cold anyone else and still stand up and even retaliate. Amongst his greatest demonstrations of durability include but are not limited to: Being stabbed on his hand with a knife and still be able to fight competently and defeat a much stronger enemy; Taking a bullet to the foot and still be able to run in pursuit of his enemy; Getting ambushed with a brick to his head to fundamentally no effect, even though he was already beaten to a bloody pulp. Thus, his willpower and ability to take hits is his forte.
Fighting Prowess: Takemichi is quite lacking in his attack power. His strength and fighting abilities are around the average delinquent’s. Rarely has he won by himself, but his resilience has stalled enemies enough to allow more powerful allies time to rush to the scene countless times. If the situation is desperate enough, his willpower makes it nigh impossible to knock him down and allows him to significantly weaken foes stronger than him through exhaustion. Takemichi’s strength scales depending on how high the stakes are. Normally, he has trouble against a few regular delinquents, but he has temporarily knocked down an incredibly strong fighter in his desperation before.
His fighting abilities have nonetheless, been shown to improve over time. Nonetheless, Takemichi lacks finese and technique on his approach even downright resorting to methods considered disgraceful such as biting. He is later capable of overwhelming the likes of Kisaki in a one on one fight, and even kick the gun Kisaki held at Takemichi out of his hands before he could even react, and all of that, despite being previously beaten to an inch of his life and having a gunshot on his foot.
We should also make note of the fact that Takemichi can time travel…and I should include the fact that we WON’T be able to train to unlock our own time traveling…
That means we’ll be training for endurance but also to revolve around what could be considered average strength.
With that in mind, though, we’ll also be training around Takemichi’s lean and toned aesthetic as well.
While he might not be as jacked as Draken and Mikey and some of the other characters, he’s still slim and toned – which is what we’ll be shooting for as well.
