Jack (Metal Saga)

''"Jack" redirects here. For Team Psykick's minor member, wanna see Jack (Original).''

Jack (ジャック, Jakku) is a reccuring character in the Metal Saga, making his debut in Beyblade: Metal Masters as a primary antagonist.

He is a member of the Team Star Breaker, representing America in Big Bang Bladers. Jack is an artistically obsessed blader who makes works of art with his Beyblade; Evil Befall UW145EWD.

Physical Appearance
Jack has long wavy light burgundy coloured hair. He wears a blueish-green jacket with yellow highlights with a purple shirt underneath. He wears white gloves as well as a black masquerade mask that leads to a point at the nose. Also he wears really dark blue lipstick.

In Beyblade: Metal Fury, he returns with an all new look. He removed the mask and face paint. He still has the blue lipstick and the white gloves. He swapped his original jacket for a grey one. Under that, he wears a teal shirt. He has brown trousers and a white and yellow belt. Jack has new black boots and wears something around his neck. The wardrobe change could be due to Jack being taken off the Arrangement System.

Personality
Jack comes off as strange to most people. He is very self-absorbed artist and seems to live in his own world most of the time. Anything that can't compare to art one way or another is worthless to him. Even in his battle style, his art obsession clearly shows - he doesn't beyblade for the sake of the sport, but rather uses it as a tool to create artworks. He's ruthless and absolutely uncaring of other people's well-being and easily willing to turn even a human being into 'art' by wounding him.

Jack's mental state appears to have become considerably unstable due to the influence of the Arrangement System. Destruction of his artworks causes him to break down immediately. Nevertheless, he states to love the system and its influence on him, even exclaiming it's a good thing that it changes ones personality. He himself, so he claims, has become more free for the world of art due to it, a thing for which he's thankful.

Socially, Jack clearly distinguishes between people he's interested in and everyone else. That differenciation is not made based on strength, as even Ginga or Masamune do not catch his attention. The only people Jack wishes to interact with are those who he deems elegant, like Ryuuga or Tsubasa. Even here, he sees human beings as art rather than as people. He's very dettached and unable to comprehend other blader's emotions in any way. By the time of Metal Fure, with the Arrangement influence wearing off, Jack's personality appears toned down and a lot calmer, although still similar to his old self. Notably is, that his blading abilities also degenerated, leaving him comparatively weak.
