With the recent release of Tokyo Revengers: Letter from Keisuke Baji (spinoff) volume 2 release, it has been observed that the first volume of the spinoff series managed to overtake Blue Lock spinoff volume 1 in sales.

Natsukawaguchi Yukinori's Tokyo Revengers: Letter from Keisuke Baji is a spinoff of the original series, that is set one month after the tragic death of Keisuke Baji on Bloody Halloween when his mother, Ryoko, happened to find a letter written by her son that was dated a day before his death and was addressed to Tokyo Manji Gang First Division Vice-Captain Chifuyu Matsuno. The letter transitions the manga to the duo's backstory.

Kota Sannomiya's Blue Lock: Episode Nagi volume 1 was released on October 17, 2022, with the series' first four chapters, meanwhile, the Tokyo Revengers: Letter from Keisuke Baji volume 1, featuring the first four chapters, was released on November 16, 2022.

Tokyo Revengers spinoff volume 3 is expected to be released sometime in February or March 2023. As the spinoff's volume 1 was released on November 16, 2022, followed by the second volume on January 17, 2023, fans can expect the next volume to be released at an equal interval.

As for the first and second volumes, both had four chapters compiled within them. As the manga has already released five more chapters after the eighth chapter of the series, Kodansha Comics has more than enough content available for the third volume of the series, which could be released sometime close to the release of the next chapter 14.

Thus, fans can expect Tokyo Revengers: Letter from Keisuke Baji volume 3 to be released sometime around the third week of either February or March 2023.
