Personality
He is portrayed to be pure evil and shows no mercy to his allies or enemies, he loves to attack the Beys of his enemies until the Bey is crushed. He also enjoys terrorizing other Beybladers and has a power-hungry personality. Although in episode 51 it is revealed that Ryuga's behavior was caused by Lightning L-Drago's possession over him.

History
He owns the mystical L-Drago, referred to as the, and is Gingka's ultimate rival.

Coincidentally, he keeps his Beyblade on his arm with something shaped like a dragon from the Asian legends. He is part of the Dark Nebula organization, where he is seriously worshiped by all the followers. Like Yu Tendo he turned monstrous in the final battle with Gingka in episode 50.

Ryuga is the reason Gingka's father, Ryo Hagane, got trapped in a cave. But later was saved by Hokuto, a Beyblader dog. With Dark Nebula, he attacked the town Gingka lived in. After defeating Ryo in a battle with his L-Drago, rocks fell from the volcano on top Gingka's father. This is why Gingka hates Ryuga. Ginkga's dad Ryo then turned into Phoenix with Burn Fireblaze.

Beyblade: Metal Fusion


When Ryuga first appeared in the anime, he is seen inside a capsule in a coma in the Dark Nebula Castle. Gingka and Storm Pegasus' presence in the area allowed him to wake up. Afterward, Gingka challenged him to

a Beybattle when he confronted him. They fought on the stadium often used by the Dark Nebula, and with his insulting and taunting comments, Gingka was easily distracted and furious. This caused the event in where he was able to restore Ryuga's power. With his energy back to 100%, he won the battle effortlessly with his final attack from L-Drago, leaving Gingka in shock that he lost to him and Pegasus in scratches.

He approched Gingka when the WBBA granted Yu's wish to have a tournamnet called "Battle Bladers". The winner will be able to fight Ryuga and Gingka used this chance to have a re-match. They had a short battle but Ryuga won and told him he won't be able to defeat him.

In Battle Bladers, he is often seen spectating at the battles with Doji. He battles Hikaru and Tsubasa and wins. He then approches Doji and uses L-Drago to suck all of his energy due to Doji being concerned that Ryuga won't be all powerful to defeat Gingka, making him think Doji does not think he's powerful alone.

In the semi-finals, he battles Kyoya and wins despite Kyoya's determination to beat Ryuga and battle and win against Gingka. With this, Ryuga gets his match to battle Gingka.



In the final round, Gingka and Ryuga have their re-match and it takes a turn for the worst for Gingka. During the match L-Drago takes control over Ryuga. However, with Gingka's determiantion to beat Ryuga and the bond he has with with freinds and more importanly the Blader's Spirit, he was able to defeat Ryuga but at a price, as Pegasus sacrificed itself to defeat L-Drago once and for all. Then Ryuga picks up L-Drago and walks away.

Beyblade: Metal Masters
Ryuga returns with Meteo L-Drago, the evolution Lightning L-Drago and is more of a "Teacher" to Tsubasa in order help stop Tsubasa's "dark side." He is now somewhat of a "good guy".

He battles Gingka once more and wins after Gingka's Galaxy Pegasus gets stuck in black hole and Ryuga leaves telling Gingka that he needs to find his Blader's Spirit.

He enters Big Bang Bladers to defeat Jack and his Killer Beafowl.

Ryuga is the number one Blader only in the Dark Nebula.
