Even though Sanfrecce Hiroshima often moved between the J1 League and the J2 League, Mogi got chances to play. He started as a forward in his very first season. However, he did not become a regular player. By the middle of 2005, he was not playing much in matches.

He had some injuries in 2008, which kept him from playing. But from 2009, he became a regular side back for Vissel Kobe. The team was moved down to the J2 League at the end of the 2012 season. Even though Vissel Kobe earned promotion back to J1 in 2013, Mogi's playing time became less from that year onwards.
