A new collaboration has been announced between the popular anime Tokyo Revengers and the legendary film franchise Back to the Future.
The new partnership will see the release of a new line of exclusive SEGA arcade prizes, launching on the 25th of December.
This unexpected crossover is a joint celebration, honoring the 5th anniversary of the Tokyo Revengers anime and the 40th anniversary of the Back to the Future film.
The prize lineup will feature a “premium figure” of the Toman leader, Manjiro “Mikey” Sano, dressed in the iconic outfit of the film’s protagonist, Marty McFly.
In addition, mascot plushies will also be released, featuring the main trio of Takemichi, Mikey, and Draken, all dressed in Back to the Future-themed costumes.
These new prizes will be available at game centers and in online crane game services across Japan.
This new Tokyo Revengers line is just one part of a massive, nationwide celebration in Japan for the 40th anniversary of Back to the Future.
A major 40th-anniversary event is scheduled for the upcoming Tokyo Comic Convention 2025, which will run from the 5th to the 7th of December.
This event will feature a massive cast reunion, with guests including Christopher Lloyd (Doc Brown), Lea Thompson (Lorraine McFly), Tom Wilson (Biff Tannen), and Claudia Wells (Jennifer Parker).
The convention will also feature a DeLorean photo op and the sale of limited, autographed portraits signed by the film’s star, Michael J. Fox.
In addition to the convention, the Japanese jewelry brand U-TREASURE has also announced a 40th-anniversary “Clock Tower Motif Watch.”
The collectible, serial-numbered watch is currently available for pre-order and is priced at ¥35,200 (approx. $238 USD / £190 GBP).
This new SEGA prize collaboration with Tokyo Revengers adds a unique, anime-themed twist to the ongoing anniversary festivities.
