The anime doesn't have it, but the manga does. Is the mangaka a secret nazi or something?

That isn't a swastika (edit: as in, the nazi iteration of it), it's a manji symbol


it means peace and prosperity and was used in India and other parts of Asia

The swastika is a popular buddhist symbol (also found in other cultures/religions) that isn't associated with National Socialism in those parts of the world.

Manji literally means swastika. You don't have to spread false information to justify its use here.

The Buddhist symbol existed before WWII and signifies peace and prosperity. The gang has it in its name because the symbol, pronounced manji, is similar to the leader Manjiro Sano's name. That's all there is to it.

And concerning the anime censoring it, that's just because people would rather jump straight to the conclusion that it's used for Nazi purposes than actually look into it.

It's obvious the OP is trolling, lol.
The Nazi Swastika is usually drawn with a 45 degree tilt while the "original" swastika (known as Manji in Japan) is drawn in a shape that resembles a square more than a rhombus. What's important is the meaning. The character who created the Tokyo Manji gang is called Manjiro so it's kind of a play on words.
The Russian army is using a "Z" symbol to identify themselves. Do we just stop using the letter Z now? No. It's the same with the Manji.

Takemichi and his gang are neo-Nazis and true Aryans. Why do you think they dye their hair blonde?

Spoiler warning, Takemichi is gonna kick Mikey's ass with a surprise Roman salute to the throat.

These troll replies are hilarious.

The real answer is the manji symbol existed long before the swastika was adopted by Nazi Germany and came to represent fascism. The symbol used by Nazis is actually an invertsion of the manji. The manji is used by the Tokyo Maji Gang because the leader of the gang, Mikey's, real name is Manjiro (hence manji).
