What is Fairy Tale Revengers?
The New Anime Mini-Series
Fairy Tale Revengers is a new mini-anime series that is available on YouTube to watch for free. The first episode was released this past week, and is part 1 of a 3-part story. The episode is only a little over 3 minutes long, and animated in a simple, cute chibi style. At the time of publishing, the video had already gained more than 79,000 views and over 8,000 likes, along with hundreds of comments.
Fairy Tale Revengers will be exploring classic fairy tales, but they will be retold using the characters from Tokyo Revengers. The first story being adapted is Momotaro, one of the most well-known Japanese folk stories. It tells the story of a boy who is born from a peach, who goes on to defeat the demons that plague his land with the help of three animal companions. The basic story stays the same in Fairy Tale Revengers, but the characters have all been replaced with those from the anime.
Right now, the YouTube channel does not have any information about when more episodes will be released or what stories they will cover, but the wording of the caption does make it sound like this is only the first in a series. Hopefully, considering the simple animation style and the short length of the episodes, fans will not have to wait too long to see what is coming next. For now, the first episode of Fairy Tale Revengers is available in Japanese with English subtitles.

The Legacy of Tokyo Revengers
Where is the Series Right Now?
Tokyo Revengers first aired in April 2021, and went on to become an incredibly popular series both in Japan and abroad. Due to the success of its manga, which was published in English by Kodansha USA Publishing, the anime series was released by Crunchyroll on the same day that it released in Japan. Two years later in January 2023, Tokyo Revengers: Christmas Showdown aired on Disney+ and Hulu.
In October 2023, Disney+ exclusively aired the third part of Tokyo Revengers, Tokyo Revengers: Tenjiku Arc, internationally. All seasons of the anime were well-received, and the series has maintained its popularity over the past three years. It has also inspired three live-action films so far, the first of which was the #1 live-action film in Japan in 2021. The manga, which began in March 2017 in Shōnen Weekly Jump, concluded in November 2023.
There are still two more arcs left to be turned into anime, the Bonten Arc and the Final Arc (which is split even more into the Three Dieties and Kanto Manji Arcs). That could mean there are still two more series of Tokyo Revengers to come, at minimum, and there may be even more. With the series’ ongoing success, there is a good chance that they will be made in the upcoming years. While waiting, though, fans can enjoy Fairy Tale Revengers for free on the anime’s YouTube channel.
