Tokyo Manji Gang

The Tokyo Manji Gang (東京卍會,), or also known as Toman (東卍,), was a Shibuya biker gang led by Manjiro Sano. It was known for its honorable ideals and beliefs that contributed to its goal in establishing a new golden era for delinquents in the Kanto region. However, this image crumbled as its ranks were continually corrupted and transformed into a criminal organization that took the lives of innocent civilians in the present day.

Throughout it's reign, Tokyo Manji Gang took on several gangs and declared victory against them, causing it to rapidly grow its numbers. Its de facto unit would later be led by Takemichi Hanagaki, Tokyo Manji Gang's latest First Division Captain.

Uniform
Tokyo Manji Gang's official uniform was a black tokkō-fuku (特攻服,) fashioned after the  subculture in Japan. It's sleeves bore the wearer's position or division number with the gang's manifesto embroidered on the upper front section. Tokyo Manji Gang's complete name adorned the backside. To easily distinguish its upper echelon from the division members, all Tokyo Manji Gang Captains and it's Vice-Leader wore a white (襷) or sash. It's leader wore a similar sash in the color red, secured on the shoulder straps of his tailcoat.

After the Bloody Halloween conflict, the Tokyo Manji Gang leaders adopted an exclusive casual uniform similar to Valhalla's. The jacket's tag was Tokyo Manji Gang's complete name in romaji. Its present administration commonly wore business-like attire and semi-formal garments on occasion.

Background
Tokyo Manji Gang was founded on June 19, 2003, two weeks after Manjiro Sano took on Kazutora Hanemiya's childhood friend and his accomplices alone. Mikey won against them as an effort to protect Kazutora from harm, but his victory soon made way for Kazutora’s friends to retaliate with the Ninth Generation Black Dragon on their side.

A week after receiving word of the Ninth Generation alliance, Mikey gathered Kazutora, Ken Ryuguji, Takashi Mitsuya, Keisuke Baji, and Haruki Hayashida at Musashi Shrine to confront Kazutora about fighting the Black Dragon all by himself. Mikey planned to fight them, which induced Baji to form a gang of their own. With Mikey as its leader, Draken as its Vice-Leader, and the rest commanding the gang’s regime, the Tokyo Manji Gang was formed.

Structure
Tokyo Manji Gang's structure mirrored the typical composition of a delinquent gang. Its top administration comprised of a leader, often addressed as is or "Boss," with a Vice-Leader, or "Vice President," at his side. Subservient to its leaders were Division Captains, who led one division each consisting of at least 20 men. Under them were their respective Division Vice-Captains, usually their close companions or advisers, and personally appointed Squad Captains for its attack and elite squads. Under the Squad Captains were the division members.

Tokyo Manji Gang had five divisions, amounting to approximately 100 members. It's member count helped it be recognized as a large motorbike gang in Tokyo. Once Tokyo Manji Gang faced Moebius, it's Third Division fell short on leadership as it's Captain Haruki Hayashida (Pah-chin) was sent to a detention center after turning himself in for inflicting injury on Moebius's leader. Following Pah-chin’s arrest,Tokyo Manji Gang was split into two factions, namely the “Mikey side” and the "Draken side." Mikey's side was in favor of his intention to bail Pah-chin out of jail, but Draken's side disapproved of this plan, as it would leave Pah-chin's sacrifice to be in vain. With the Third Division lacking a captain, Mikey elected Tetta Kisaki as Pah-chin's replacement after Tokyo Manji Gang's victory in another battle against Moebius. Kisaki's membership caused Tokyo Manji Gang to grow from approximately 100 members to 150. After the gang's victory against the motorbike gang Valhalla, a sixth division was founded under the command of Shuji Hanma. Compared to the other five divisions, the sixth had a total of 300 members, all previously from the gang. However, the Sixth Division was later dissolved as Kisaki was expelled from Tokyo Manji Gang for double-crossing the team during the Christmas Conflict. Consequently, Tokyo Manji Gang's numbers dwindled from 450 back to the original 100, as Hanma left the gang with him.

Alongside the decrease in numbers was Ryohei Hayashi's (Peh-yan's) promotion from former Third Division Vice-Captain and Second Division member to the Third Division's acting Captain. From that day onward, Peh-yan commanded the Third Division alone. Tokyo Manji Gang also became the parent organization of the 11th Generation Black Dragon after defeating the 10th in a battle. Through their affiliation under the First Division, Takemichi Hanagaki became the 11th Generation's leader. Although it is unclear how members were assigned to a division, Tokyo Manji Gang 's original five had unique prominent qualities that differentiated them from the others. The first was intended to be an attack unit and the second as the elite guard during the gang's foundation. The Fifth Division was later formed to be the gang’s “Public Morality Council,” where its members were given the duty to investigate on skeptical division members without the express permission from Toman's higher-ups. This meant that only Fifth Division members were allowed to initiate infighting as long as it was for the benefit of the gang. Assigned to this division was a physically strong captain capable enough to facilitate such investigations.

During the battle against Tenjiku, Takemichi became Tokyo Manji Gang's de facto leader as he led the gang in Mikey's behalf. Throughout Takemichi's time leap excursions, the present-day Tokyo Manji Gang would regularly change and add members. As a criminal organization, Tokyo Manji Gang was commanded by its prime leader and his second-in-command. Subservient to them are the organization's Top Admins, followed by Admins, then the gang's made men. Tokyo Manji Gang's division system was abolished and it's Captains were replaced with Admins. By Takemichi's 14th time leap, a third leader was introduced, who, in essence, served as Tokyo Manji Gang's prime leader to fill in his superiors's truancies.

2 years after Mikey disbanded the Tokyo Manji Gang Takemichi Hanagaki reformed the Gang to combat Manjiro Sano's Kanto Manji Gang. Takemichi intrusted Chifuyu Matsuno to become the new Vice-Leader along side him. Together they had gather previous captains Takashi Mitsuya,Haruki Hayashida, and Nahoya Kawata to refill their roles as captains with Seishu Inui and Senju Kawaragi taking the positions of First and Fifth division respectfully. Haruki has also managed to gather 50 ex-toman members which makes their total 64 members.
