Hyoma

Hyoma is a mysterious character and is Ginkga's childhood friend. He is about 13 to 15 years old and owns Clay Aries ED145B. Because the Clay Fusion Wheel is made of plastic, it was replaced with the Rock Fusion Wheel in the merchandise, thus becomming Rock Aries ED145B. Although Hyoma calls his bey Rock Aries in the english-dub of the anime, you can clearly see that the Fusion wheel is Clay, not Rock. Hyoma is the only major blader character of the Metal Saga anime that has not had their Beyblade released by Hasbro.

Appearance
Hyoma wears a pair of hiking boots along a pink t-shirt under a green jacket, and sports a pair of brown leather worker gloves. He has of a pale complexion and his hair is a light shade of violet.

Personality
Hyoma's personality is very hard to describe as seen when he was assisting Kenta, Benkei, and Madoka he seemed to be a very skilled liar, and also when he battled Gingka on the "Green Hades" he seemed to have an insane personality. But in later episodes he becomes the calm guy everyone knows.While battling he's never worried and stays always calm, exept when he battled Reiji, he seems scared and didn't know what to do anymore. In that battle it looked like Reji's took over him.

Background History
Hyoma is Ginkga's childhood friend, and they grew up in Koma village together. He is too the no.1 rival of Ginga.(As accepted by ginga in the episode Green Hades).

Beyblade: Metal Fusion
He was first shown when he met Kenta, Benkei, Kyoya, and Madoka while they were trying to find Gingka. Hyoma back then looked like he was just a stranger willing to help out, and guided Kenta and Madoka out of the forest along with Kyoya and Benkei because they split up for the time being. After they all met up and Kyoya told his doubts on Hyoma, he said to them that they needed to defeat him first if they wanted to go to Koma village and at the same time test their friendship with Gingka. In the end, Kenta and Benkei lost to him, but when Kyoya was about to fight him, Hyoma already accepted the group and decided to lead them to the village.

It was then revealed that Hyoma was actually Gingka's childhood friend since they both lived and grew up in Koma village. After Gingka came back with restored confidence (from the loss against Ryuga), Hyoma challenged Gingka to battle in the 'Green Hades'. Before, Hyoma won against Gingka every time they battled in the strange stadium. Yet this time, Hyoma lost. In a way, this signaled that Hyoma was accepted in to the group.

Later on, Hyoma also joined the Survival Battle along with Gingka and the others. He was able to defeat many bladers but lost to Kyoya. After the announcement of Battle Bladers by Yu at the end of the Survival Battle, Hyoma decided to also join this tournament and set off to gather the fifty thousand points needed like everyone else.

He was later seen coincidentally meeting Kenta in a Challenge match for some points. Hyoma chose to go to the river side of the stadium, and Kenta went to the forest side. Both of them were clearing their competitors with ease until Yu and Tsubasa come in to intervene; Yu verses Hyoma and Tsubasa verses Kenta. Even if he chose the field of the battle which was a kind of rocky island terrain in the middle of a raging river, Yu was able to beat him with Flame Libra's power. The same thing happened to Kenta with Tsubasa. At the end of the day though, they both treated the loss as a stepping stone to becoming stronger. So parting ways once again, they decided to train more so that they'll be able to compete in Battle Bladers.

Hyoma also enters the 10,000 bey-points challenge match, where he gets to the finals. He competes in the Battle Royale, where he hold his ground against Tsubasa's attacks using Windstorm Assault, though Tsubasa attacks from above, Hyoma is knocked out from the battle. Hyoma, later battles Tsubasa to get Gingka enough time to reach a tournament to earn points for him to qualify for Battle Bladers.

In battle bladers Hyoma faces Reiji in the first round, though he appears to be winning, Reiji keeps on causing him a little damage at a time only to reveal his strength by the end of the battle, when he uses his dark move to destroy Aries. Though in episode 46, Hyoma and Kenta tag battle Doji, and his Aries seems to be in good condition(Which is likely fixed by Madoka).

Beyblade: Metal Masters
Hyoma appears in the first two episodes of the Metal Masters where he helps Gingka search for Galaxy Pegasus.

Gingka Hagane:
Being Gingka's childhood friend, Hyoma's relation has been ever growing with Gingka. However, after Metal Fusion, staying back in Koma Village we can't see more of a relationship between them.

Hikaru Hasama:
Since Hyoma makes a lot of appearance with Hikaru, it is believed they have got some kind of relationship.

Beyblades
Clay Aries ED145B: In the anime, Hyōma starts off with Clay Aries. Clay Aries is a Defense-Type bey that has a powerful spin track. Clay Aries is broken into peices by Reiji and his Poison Serpent in the anime. However, in Beyblade Metal Masters, Madoka fixes Clay Aries.
