Mebius Dust (Japanese: メビウス・ダスト, Hepburn: Mebiusu Dasuto) is an original anime television series created by Hajime Shinagawa and produced by Doga Kobo, featuring direction by Tarou Iwasaki, series composition by Yoriko Tomita, and music by Dé Dé Mouse.

It was originally announced in March 2019 under the title Möbius Dust as a submission by Shinagawa to Project ANIMA [ja], a 2018 collaboration between DeNA, Sotsu, and Nippon Cultural Broadcasting that accepted story submissions from the general public for adaptation into anime, where Mebius Dust was the winner and received the grand prize in the "Kids/Game" category.

The series' production stalled from 2022, and eventually aired from July 9 to September 24, 2026, on Tokyo MX and other networks. The opening theme song is "Mebius" (メビウス, Mebiusu), performed by Leo Ieiri, and the ending theme song is "Dilemma" (ジレンマ, Jirenma), performed by Ai Tomioka. Crunchyroll is streaming the series.

Plot

Following a meteorite impact, children who had acquired special abilities known as "Ramus"—triggered by mysterious particles called "Mebius Dust"—were forbidden from leaving the bedtown of Shin-Katsushika, the area where the dust was present. While the children spent their days immersed in games utilizing their Rams, their fates took a new turn when Dr. Yuda, a researcher studying the phenomenon, asked for their cooperation in his work.

The original concept for the award-winning work—while centering on the Mebius Dust resulting from the meteorite disaster—focused on the conflict between a terrorist organization known as the "Bloodshed Alliance" and a comprehensive training academy for anti-RC unit members established by the police.
