Mobius (Chinese: 不眠日) is a 2025 Chinese science fiction mystery thriller television series, starring Bai Jingting, Janice Man and Song Yang in the lead roles. It is adapted from Zhang Xiaomao's novel "Ni Shi Zhen Cha Zu” meaning 'Time Reversal Detective Squad'. On 17 September 2025, it was released on iQIYI and Netflix. On 18 September, it was released on Dragon TV. It centers on a detective who inadvertently acquires the supernatural quintuple time loop ability bound to a structured cycle, enabling him to relive the day up to five times to prevent crimes. Mobius success in Q3 exceeded expectations, driven by significant word of mouth and strong youth engagement.

It was ranked among Netflix 'Top 10 Series' in multiple regions, notably across South Asia.
