Chapter 34

"Darkest Hour" is the first chapter of the fifth volume and the 34th chapter overall of the Tokyo卍Revengers manga series, written and illustrated by Ken Wakui.

Summary
Naoto cries in agony at Hina's funeral. Hina's mother approaches Takemichi, remarking that he has grown up. She gives him Hina's favorite necklace, which was a gift from him, and remarks that Hina must have loved him very much, while he cries.

Naoto tells Takemichi that he researched Akkun, who was married and had children in the current future. In reaction to this, Takemichi wonders why Akkun still killed Hina, despite knowing that it was a suicide mission. Naoto concludes that Akkun's family was used to force him into doing it, as they are currently missing. Naoto asks about Akkun's last words, and upon hearing that they were the same as after a previous time leap, he says that their actions were in vain, as they were unable to escape fate and change the future. Takemichi tells him that he is wrong, as Draken's death must not have been the deciding factor in turning Toman bad. He concludes that they must get to the root of the problem and that Toman must be destroyed; he will become the leader of Toman to do this. Amused by this plan, Naoto laughs, but Takemichi replies that he is serious, as he will do anything to save Hina, and Naoto thanks him for cheering him up, due to the unfeasibility of his plan. Takemichi wonders how saving Draken could lead to the current future, and Naoto looks into Draken's current life.

Later, on October 20th, 2017, Naoto contacts Takemichi and brings him to a jail, telling Takemichi that Draken is no longer in Toman, but is not dead; instead he is on death row. They have come to the jail to get information from Draken. As he steps into the visitation booth, Draken remarks that he has not seen Takemichi in a long time, and is happy to see him doing well, while Takemichi tears up upon seeing him.
