Character

Manjirou Sano

佐野万次郎

Manjirou Sano also known as "Mikey" is a founding member and the leader of Tokyo Manji Gang. Mikey is usually a carefree teenager who loves to joke and play pranks around those he considers his close friends. He cares for them greatly and is determined to protect their honor. He rarely shows any sign of weakness, as he believes himself to be the foundation and support for Touman, and if the pillar himself were to display weakness, Touman would also be weakened. As Toman's leader, his aura changes dramatically, becoming imposing and commanding. While its members respect Mikey, they also hold a degree of fear towards him and his immense prowess. He is also concerned for Touman on an individual level, as shown when he decides to rally the entire gang to seek revenge for one of its member's friend. Within Mikey, there exists a great darkness. He is forced to carry the burdens of a troubling past. He teeters between treading the right path and succumbing to that darkness. He usually hides this with his carefree grin. Without the right people to guide him, he becomes corrupted, turning into one of the most heinous criminals in the present. It is a large mission of Takemichi to make sure Mikey never veers off the right path ever again.
