Arthur Peregrine, known as Arthur Percival (アーサー・パーシヴァル, Āsā Pāshivuaru) in Japan, is a character in the anime/manga series, Beyblade Burst Rise. He fights with his Beyblade Prime Apocalypse 0Dagger Ultimate Reboot'. He refers himself as the King of Hell (ヘルの王, Heru No Ō) and the Beyblade King (ベイブレードの王, Beiburēdo No Ō).
Appearance
Arthur is a tall, built man with tan skin, medium-length prussian-blue hair that cover his green hair on the other side with green highlights at the end, turquoise eyes, and red and yellow paint marks on his face. His attire consists of a full black-olive bodysuit with blue and yellow wavy markings, white wraps around his wrists and neck, reddish feathers on the right collar of his bodysuit, a cerulean kilt with dark-red borders connected to cyan dots and held by a white belt, and dark-indigo boots with lavender cuffs and dark-green lines. His color scheme is similar to that of a blue-and-yellow macaw parrot.
Personality
Arthur is very rebellious; showing no respect for any rules or etiquette as he barges in the stadium and interrupt the blader's battle. Arthur is shown to be very authoritative to the point he decrees all Bladers must follow him, thinking that a blader must win while others are weak have no right to Beyblade.
He is also very arrogant and self-confident, calling himself the Beyblade King and showing no interest in Aiger's Championship Title which is a double-edged sword; when he lost to Dante Koryu and later Delta Zakuro, he became shocked at his loss.
Biography
Background
Beyblade Burst Rise
Beyblades
- Prime Apocalypse 0Dagger Ultimate Reboot': Arthur's primary Beyblade in Beyblade Burst Rise. In episode 21, he later equips it with the Big Bang Armor after it was given to him by Gwyn Reynolds.
Special Moves
- Dark Turbo
- End Blaster: Prime Apocalypse surrounds itself in a dark crimson with black aura and uses the protruding blade on its layer to deal a devastating attack on the opposing bey, causing it to burst and resulting in a massive explosion. In the anime, the impact was strong enough to shatter the Beystadium. This move is similar to Xander Shakadera's Saber Strike.
- Final Blaster: Apocalypse generates more power to the protruding point on its layer to deal a more devastating blow than End Blaster, similar to Xander Shakadera's Saber Strike.
- Prime Reboot: The semi-flat tip on Apocalypse's Ultimate Reboot' driver is retracted and the rubber becomes exposed, resulting in a boost that grants Apocalypse more speed and power as it rushes into its opponent like Valt Aoi's Genesis Reboot and Ultimate Genesis Reboot.
