Moebius Arc

The Moebius Arc (編), alternatively known as Battle of 8/3 Arc (8・3抗争編), is the second story arc of the Tokyo卍Revengers manga.

Introduction
After a brief leap into the future and a meeting with Nobutaka Osanai, the once leader of the gang Moebius, Takemichi Hanagaki and Naoto Tachibana discover that Ken Ryuguji's death in the past was a part of someone's scheme. The identity of that person remains a mystery, as Osanai refuses to elaborate on the details of the August 3rd incident.

Coming to the conclusion that the perpetrator had the goal of putting a divide between Draken and Manjiro Sano, they decide that Takemichi should go to the past and prevent that from happening at all costs.

Summary
Takemichi time leaps and searches for Osanai, along with Naoto, to know what happened in the past. On reaching a construction site, they find him working as a construction laborer. Confronting him inside a restaurant, Naoto asks him about Draken's death, to which Osanai breaks down, refusing to reveal anything about it, but eventually gives in. He says that the incident of August 3rd, which started the infightings in Toman, was all planned by someone whose identity he refuses to disclose. Naoto deduces that someone will try to make Mikey and Draken fight each other, for which Takemichi decides to go to the past and stop this from happening. After time leaping, Takemichi has a brief conversation with Atsushi Sendo, making him promise to pursue his dreams of becoming a Hairdresser, saying he would be his first customer. After leaving him, Takemichi runs off to where Mikey, Draken, Ryohei Hayashi, and Haruki Hayashida are. On reaching there, he advises Mikey to call the fight off, but Pah-chin grabs his hair, throwing him around the floor. Refusing to give up, Takemichi insists on not fighting with Moebius while Pah-chin punches him. Mikey tells him that since he has already decided, he will not stop before crushing Moebius. Hearing this, Takemichi kneels, saying that this would end Toman. Draken stops Pah-chin and suggests looking more into Moebius, but Mikey regards his opinion as him going against Toman. Taunting about how they are fighting with each other, Osanai enters the shed. Pah-chin tries to punch him, which he easily dodges and knocks him down on the floor. The entire Moebius gang, prepared to fight them, enters the place. While wondering how Osanai is acting differently from how he will in the future, Osanai walks up to Takemichi and starts punching him for looking at him. Pah-chin stops him and provokes him to fight against him. Taking up his challenge, after sharing some blows, Osanai punches Pah-chin on his nose, which makes him bleed and lose conciousness. After helping him down, Mikey steps up and knocks down Osanai with a single kick, even before he can complete his sentence. Enraged, Osanai tries to stab Mikey with a broken bottle before getting stopped by Draken. Draken declares that the fight has ended, and everyone from Moebius now belongs to Toman. Suddenly, police sirens are heard approaching, which makes everyone run away. Before Draken can leave Osanai with other Moebius members, Pah-chin stabs Osanai in his stomach. He reveals that he wants to turn himself to police and says his goodbyes to Mikey and Peh-yan. Mikey protests, but Draken picks him up and starts running away. While running away, Takemichi falls down on the ground due to the punches he received earlier.

Takemichi wakes up at a hospital with Emma Sano standing at his side. Breaking down, she informs Takemichi that Toman broke into  'The Mikey Faction' and 'The Draken Faction' after Draken fought with Mikey and that many people had started fighting with each other.
