Toman's Public Morality Council restrains the First DivisionĪlthough it is unclear how members were assigned to a division, Toman's original five had unique qualities that differentiated them from the others. Through their affiliation under the First Division, Takemichi Hanagaki became the 11th Generation's leader. Toman also became the parent organization of the 11th Generation Black Dragon after defeating the 10th Generation in a battle. From that day onward, Peh-yan commanded the Third Division alone. Īlongside 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. As a result, Toman's numbers dwindled from 450 back to the original 100 since Hanma left the gang with him. However, the Sixth Division was later dissolved as Kisaki was expelled from Toman for double-crossing the team during the Christmas Conflict. Compared to the other five divisions, the sixth had a total of 300 members, who were all previously from Valhalla. After the gang's victory against Valhalla, a sixth division was founded under the command of Shuji Hanma. Kisaki's membership caused Toman to grow from approximately 100 members to 150. With the Third Division lacking a captain, Mikey elected Tetta Kisaki as Pah-chin's replacement after Toman's victory in another battle against Moebius. Hanma threatens to leave Toman and shrink its numbers Following Pah-chin’s arrest, Toman 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. Once Toman faced Moebius, its Third Division fell short of leadership as its Captain Haruki Hayashida (Pah-chin) was sent to a detention center after turning himself in for inflicting injury on Moebius' leader. Its member count helped it be recognized as a large motorbike gang in Tokyo. Toman had five divisions, amounting to approximately 100 members. Under the Squad Captains were the division members.Įmma tells Takemichi about the Mikey side and the Draken side Under them were their respective Division Vice-Captains ( 副隊長, Fuku Taichō ?), usually their close companions or advisers, and personally appointed Squad Captains for its attack and elite squads. Subservient to its leaders were Division Captains ( 隊長, Taichō ?), who led one division each consisting of at least 20 men. Its top administration comprised of a leader ( 総長, Sōchō ?), often addressed as is or "Boss," with a Vice-Leader ( 副総長, Fuku Sōchō ?), or "Vice President," at his side. Toman's structure mirrored the typical composition of a delinquent gang. With Mikey as its leader, Draken as its Vice-Leader, and the rest commanding the gang’s regime, the Tokyo Manji Gang was formed. Mikey planned to fight them, which induced Baji to form a gang of their own. Ī 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 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. Toman was founded on June 19, 2003, two weeks after Manjiro Sano took on Kazutora Hanemiya's childhood friend and his accomplices alone. Toman uses the left-facing manji on their banner and uniforms. This counterclockwise manji with straight arms symbolizes power and good fortune in different religions and is used in varying cultural contexts. Toman's logo consists of the left-facing swastika ( 卍, manji ?) as a reference to its full name, partly derived from the name Manjiro Sano, and from Japanese Buddhism, which Toman is grounded in. Its present administration commonly wore business-like attire and semi-formal garments on occasion. The Second Generation wore the same uniform with the denomination name ( 二代目, Ni daime ?) embroidered on the back collar. The jacket's tag was Toman's complete name in romaji. Its leader wore a similar sash in the color red, secured on the shoulder straps of his tailcoat.Īfter the Bloody Halloween conflict, the First Generation Toman leaders adopted an exclusive casual uniform similar to Valhalla's. To easily distinguish its upper echelon from the division members, all Toman Captains and its Vice-Leader wore a white tasuki ( 襷 ?) or sash. Toman's complete name adorned the backside. Its sleeves bore the wearer's position or division number with the gang's manifesto embroidered on the upper front section. Toman's official uniform was a black tokkō-fuku ( 特攻服, special attack clothing ?) fashioned after the bōsōzoku subculture in Japan.
