As soon as he asks them to not fight Moebius, Pah-chin throws Takemichi to the ground. He finds the Toman leader, Draken, Pah-chin and Peh-yan at a warehouse in the midst of discussing the fight with Moebius. Takemichi time leaps back into the past to stop Mikey from fighting Moebius. Osanai can barely mention that this was all part of his plan before his terror causes him to shut up. Their fight was only meant to trigger unrest within Toman, and would, later on, result in Draken's death. Working a low-paying job under a demanding boss, Osanai confesses that back then, while Moebius did fight with Toman, they weren't responsible for Draken's death. Past episodes have shown just how important Mikey and Draken's friendship is and how the two of them complement each other's strengths and weaknesses. Draken's death had a huge impact on Toman, as seen with Akkun's suicide and Mikey's own demise after a downward spiral, caused by the loss of his emotional anchor. But Episode 6 delivers another punch in the gut by showing present-day Mikey on a rooftop above the Shibuya streets, with a familiar dragon tattoo on the side of his neck in memory of his best friend.Īfter time-leaping back to 2017, Takemichi and Naoto track down Osanai, the leader of Moebius who looks nothing like an ex-gang leader. Mikey asks Draken to be friends and the rest is history. The rest of the members run for their lives, leaving him and a stunned Draken alone. Onsight, Mikey charges the leader, lollipop still in his mouth, launches himself into the air and dropkicks the gang leader to the ground in one ruthless move. He doesn't know how to react as Mikey comes up to him, lollipop in his mouth, and agrees to follow Draken to see the Sameyama Crew. When Draken finally finds him, he's shocked - young Mikey's a total pipsqueak. Hearing how Mikey defeated another strong gang leader, Draken shivers, assuming Mikey to be some holy terror. The leader reprimands him for being cocky and punching the middle schoolers, noting that there's someone else like Draken - a kid from Seventh Elementary named Mikey. However, there's one gang Draken can't win against - the Sameyama Crew. In fifth grade, he decides to get a dragon tattooed on the side of his head, cementing the fact early on that he isn't someone you want to mess with. Being unusually tall for his age, Draken quickly became a force to be reckoned with, beating up middle schoolers with ease. At the age of two, his mother left him, and with his father out of the picture, Draken was essentially orphaned. Draken was born in Shibuya's red-light district and lived in a brothel.
