'''Doji''' (大道寺, ''Daidouji'') was one of the main antagonists of the ''[[Metal Saga]]''. He was an enemy of [[Gingka Hagane]] and the former leader of [[Dark Nebula]] who had [[Ryuga]]. He used to own [[Dark Wolf DF145FS]]. Doji seeked the power of the "Forbidden Bey", [[Lightning L-Drago 100HF]].
   
 
Doji and Ryuga were the ones who invaded [[Koma Village]], Gingka's hometown, and stole the Forbidden Bey Lightning L-Drago from it. Being the head of Dark Nebula, and having Ryuga on his side, he arranged the [[Battle Bladers]] tournament in order to give Ryuga more power so they could eventually rule the world. This plan backfired when Ryuga used the dark power of L-Drago and attacked Doji; sucking most of the life energy within him for L-Drago and left him waiting for death.

Despite this major damage to his health, Doji would not give up and started to wear a long coat that covered his body, a top hat, an artificial leg, and a walking cane due to the attack he suffered at the hands of L-Drago. As a result, he found [[Rago]] and the [[Nemesis Bladers]] and brought them to [[Pluto]] as he made his ultimate return in ''[[Beyblade: Metal Fury]]'', only to die once again due to Ryuga's new Special Move.

Doji finally returned in the Shogun Steel anime in [[Beyblade: Shogun Steel - Episode 39|A New War]], but this time, he was apparently revived by [[Merci]]. He was converted to light energy stored within the Hades computer system. His new form poses as a threat to the WBBA and the future of Beyblading.

Doji finally returned in the Shogun Steel anime in [[Beyblade: Shogun Steel - Episode 39|A New War]], but this time, he was apparently revived by [[Merci]]. He was converted to light energy stored within the Hades computer system and being placed in a machine known as [[Robo Doji]]. His new form poses as a threat to the WBBA and the future of Beyblading. In addition, Doji is the secret mastermind behind [[Team Garcias]]'s organization: DNA, which stands for [[Dark Nebula Again]].

Doji appears to be a wealthy businessman. With a pair of hexagonal shaped glasses, a purple suit and a red tie, he passes off as an intelligent, wealthy young man. He keeps a comb in his chest pocket and is seen in many episodes using it only to comb his golden streak in his hair, which he appears to love.

==Personality==
 
 
Doji is a person who never really gets serious even if his enemies were strong such as Gingka. He is also a person who doesn't like to show his real power, especially not to children. Doji is extremely cruel, often punishing members of the [[Dark Nebula]] by "feeding" their power to [[Lightning L-Drago 100HF]]. He is never one to give up on his goals and desires, as he uses his intellect to get ahead of his enemies. He always speaks in a polite manner, even to his enemies, but there's no mistaking the arrogance in what he says. He'll frequently access people as 'my friend' in a condescending manner. Generally, he appears to never accept people as being on his level.

Generally, he appears to never accept people as being on his level.
   
 
As shown in Metal Fury, Doji has a habit of taunting those who oppose him. In episode 141, he even goes so far to anger Ryuga by making note of him helping Gingka, as well as degrading him to a mere pawn in Hades Inc's plan. It's a form of manipulation, as he clearly nows this will cause Ryuga to immediately stop any cooperation with the other Legendary Bladers. Doji appears to take great enjoyment of taunting Ryuga, as he laughs hysterically at the Dragon Emperor's reactions. He has even done this to Gingka back in Metal Fusion when he "awakened" Lightning L-Drago.

Socially, Doji keeps his distance (Yu was the only one who had the potential to form a friendship with him.) He only associates with those who can be of use to him. Powerful bladers like Ryuga and Rago deserve the upmost respect, in his mind. Although Doji doesn't get close to others, he has the ability to "play others emotions like a piano". This is shown in episode 3 or Metal Fusion when he agitates Kyoya to the point where he bets on his free will. He also does this in Metal Fury to Ryuuga in order to mess up the Zeus Barrier.

In private, he has a conflicted relation with his own interests. He claims to 'hate cacti so much that he can't think about anything else'. The true reason for this, as Doji further describes, is that they are so pricky that he can't hug them. This sort of utter obsession with things he can't have seems to be a large part of his character motivation. In the anime version of Zero G, he is especially driven by this - given he is physically dead, he can't havy any form of physical sensation which he now misses terribly.

==Biography==
 
Not much is known about Doji's past. The only scene involving Doji was the event in which [[Ryuga]] obtained the "Forbidden Bey", [[Lightning L Drago 100HF|Lightning L-Drago 100HF]]. Doji most likely found out where it was and lead Ryuga to Koma Village - The Beyblade Village where Gingka grew up in . He was seen helping Ryuga reach the Bey by launching his Dark Wolf against the traps and even Gingka's father, [[Ryo Hagane]]. It was most likely his decision to place [[Ryuga]] in a coma until [[Lightning L-Drago 100HF]] could awaken to it's full potential. At that point, Doji was loyal to Ryuga as he wanted to train him and L-Drago. However, it was revealed later that raising Ryuga was only meant for using him for Hades Inc's grand plan.

[[File:195.jpg|thumb|left|Doji challenging Kyoya to a battle.]]After [[Gingka Hagane]] left [[Koma Village]] on his quest, Doji kept a low profile as he waited for L-Drago's power to awaken. After hearing that Ginka beat Kyoya Tategami He began making small negotiations with him and his gang the Face Hunters Refusing to make an agreement with him without a fight, Kyoya challenges Doji to a bey battle, promising to do whatever he is told if he loses. Despite the weather conditions being in Kyoya's favor, his lack of skills leads to his defeat, forcing him to keep his promise. Doji was the one to offer [[Dark Bull H145SD]], [[Benkei Hanawa]]'s current beyblade to him in order to defeat Gingka,and that defeating Gingka is the only way to get back Kyoya until Doji says so. Benki however fails to beat Ginka after he trained with his new Beyblade. He is later seen observing Kyoyas progress in Beyblade then sends him to Wolf Cannon to find the fangs of the heart needed to beat Ginka. He even uses his Ai Mercy to gather data on Ginka so he can be deafted which he succeeds in gathering data for the Dark Nebula. After Kyoya's training is complete he sends him to the city to challenge Ginka which goes both ways and it looks like Ginka may lose which pleases Doji. However in the end Ginka wins.
 
[[File:651.jpg|thumb]]After the battle Doji shows up, revealing himself to be behind Kyoyas training and his new powers. Gingka challenges Doji to a battle but Doji denies the challenge and mentions his corporation Dark Nebula Organization and says that Kyoya's training was less than adequate and viciously attacks Kyoya at the scene. He invites Gingka and his friends to the [[Dark Nebula Castle]], where he awaits them. Once they arrive they are stalled by Defenses put up by Doji so Gingka and co. cannot enter the castle. Gingka and co. and Doji are surprised at the site that Kyoya has arrived in order to help them. Gingka and co. manage to breakthrough by combining their special moves. Doji and Merci have prepared traps to stop them, but they still succeed in passing by all of Doji's tasks and challenges including taking down Dan and Reiki Sodo. Ginka reaches Doji and challenges him to a battle as revenge for his father after refusing Dojis offer to join Dark Nebula. A battle sparks between the two, causing [[Ryuga]] to awaken from his coma. Doji loses, but this fails to faze him. He oversees Ryuga and Gingka's battle, knowing that [[Storm Pegasus 105RF|Storm Pegasus 105RF is actually]] feeding power to L-Drago. Gingka loses, and Doji reveals that it was Gingka himself that helped L-Drago awaken, causing the boy to fall in shame.
   
 
Ryuga's awakening causes Doji to appear less often, usually spending time in his office overseeing Ryugas battles with Dark Nebula troops. He did, however, find [[Yu Tendo]], hired him after he lost to Ryuga in the desert and sent him off to the Survival Battle, which he wins in by beating Gingka and Kyoya. As a reward for winning the Survival Battle, the [[WBBA]] grants whatever wish the winner chooses to grant. Yu, as instructed to do, asks for [[Battle Bladers]] to become possible. The crowds shout in approval for this wish. As [[Blader DJ|Blader DJ willingly agrees]] to this, Doji shows up in a helicopter, revealing that not only will his organization sponsor it, but he will also become Master of Ceremonies, granting him the power to do whatever he wishes with the tournament. Both him and Yu agree to only allow bladers with 50000 beypoints entry into the tournament. He than explains that battle Bladers will make everyone know Ryuga as the king of all bladers once he wins the tornment. After making their announcement, Doji, Yu and Ryuga take their leave, despite Gingka's great disapproval. On the helicopter ride back, Doji reveals to Yu that he didn't think Battle Bladers would have been possible without him. He didn't believe there were worthy enough bladers to be Ryuga's food. He then explains that when Ryuga wins Dark nebula will unleash a dark power on the world controlling everything.

He began making small negotiations with the [[Face Hunters]], including their leader, [[Kyoya Tategami]]. Refusing to make an agreement with him without a fight, Kyoya challenges Doji to a beybattle, promising to do whatever he is told if he loses.

Doji was the one to offer [[Dark Bull H145SD]], [[Benkei Hanawa]]'s current beyblade to him in order to defeat Gingka, which Benkei fails to do.
 
[[File:651.jpg|thumb|left|Doji]] After Kyoya is again defeated by Gingka, Doji shows up, revealing himself to be behind it all. He invites Gingka and his friends to the [[Dark Nebula Castle]], where he awaits them. Once they arrive, he orders [[Merci]] to initiate many traps in store for them, causing Gingka to face him alone. A battle sparks between the two, causing [[Ryuga]] to awaken from his coma. Doji loses, but this fails to faze him. He oversees Ryuga and Gingka's battle, knowing that [[Storm Pegasus 105RF|Storm Pegasus 105RF isactually]] feeding power to L-Drago. Gingka loses, and Doji reveals that it was Gingka himself that helped L-Drago awaken, causing the boy to fall in shame.

On the helicopter ride back, Doji reveals to Yu that he didn't think Battle Bladers would have been possible without him. He didn't believe there were worthy enough bladers to be Ryuga's food.
 
Doji spends all of his time in his office, sometimes with Yu as they await the beginning of Battle Bladers. During this time, he recruits many new members of [[Dark Nebula]], including [[Tsubasa Otori]], [[Tetsuya Watarigani]], [[Tobio Oike]], [[Ryutaro Fukami]] and [[Reiji Mizuchi]]. He makes use of a machine to upgrade light wheel beyblades to metal wheel ones. Examples of this are [[Dark Gasher CH120FS]] and [[Evil Gemios DF145FS]]. As the Battle Bladers comes closer, Tsubasa gets caught after attempting to send much needed information to Gingka and his friends. He defeats all of the [[Dark Nebula]]'s lower class bladers but Ryuga shows up just in time to battle him. Just when Ryuga performs him final spin move, the mysterious [[Phoenix]] saves him and escapes. This causes Doji to become agitated, but interested in the masked blader. He even tracks down his hiding place, only to find he's too late. However, his findings give him an idea of who exactly [[Phoenix|Phoenix is behind the mask]].
 
[[File:96.jpg|thumb|Doji at Battle Bladers overseeing Reiji.]][[Battle Bladers]] begins, giving Doji an active role again. He kick starts the tournament with an opening speech, leading to [[Benkei Hanawa]] and [[Tobio Oike]]'s battle. After the first round, Doji, unsatisfied with the [[Dark Nebula]]'s string of defeats, sends the losers to [[Ryuga]] to become food. Yu, among these, battles Reiji for a "warming up". [[Flame Libra T125ES]] and Yu himself suffer great damage, but he manages to escape, surprising both Doji and Reiji.

He makes use of a machine to upgrade light wheel beyblades to metal wheel ones. Examples of this are [[Dark Gasher CH120FS]] and [[Evil Gemios DF145FS]]. He sends his bladers to many challenge matches to study Ginkas frends. One victory came when Yu and Tubassa beat Hyoma and Kenta, while Testuta beat Benki at a challenge match, but lost to Ginka He later sends Yu Tubasa Dan and Reki to a challenge match to find new bladers to recruit. However in the end Dan and Reki and eliminated and Yu and Tubasa lose the battle royal.
[[File:Episode46d.jpg|thumb|left|Doji challenging Kenta to a battle.]]The Master of Ceremonies exercises his right to change the order of who battles who, which angers Gingka and his friends. Anyone failing to follow his rules will be disqualified, he says. From there until episode 46, he oversees the battles. Beginning at episode 46, he successfully captures Yu and invites [[Kenta Yumiya]] and [[Hyoma]] to try to stop him, knowing that they will so that he can give more food to [[Ryuga]]. As expected, the two arrive, causing Doji and Dark Nebula bladers to take action. Kenta reaches a room with a crystal chandelier, where he meets with Doji. They battle for only a short while, as Kenta was using a stolen light wheel bey. Right when Wolf goes for the kill, Hyoma's [[Rock Aries ED145B]] sends Dark Wolf away, but this only starts a battle between Aries and Wolf. Doji, knowing that Hyoma doesn't have as much power as he started with, tires him out. Just when Hyoma is ready to give in, Kenta launches his greatly damaged [[Flame Sagittario C145ES]] at Dark Wolf, placing a chip in between the metal wheel in the process. Doji, seeing this as an act of desperation, performs his spin move on both beys. He defeats both Kenta and Hyoma, who are on the floor. Right before he goes to take them, Phoenix interrupts, appearing out of nowhere. This angers Doji greatly, for this was the second time Phoenix interfered. Despite this, Doji calmly and confidently challenges him to a battle, determined to defeat him once and for all. Strategically, Doji doesn't show his true power until Phoenix proves that he will require it. He sends both Phoenix and his beast under a black hole of darkness. When he almost had them finished, Phoenix reappears out of the hole, sends [[Burning Firestrike]] straight for [[Flame Sagittario C145ES]] chip wedged in the Dark wheel and cracks Wolf's facebolt in the center. This sends Doji across the room and the impact sends the crystal chandelier on him.

Later Doji learns that Ginka lost his beypoints which concerns him as Ginka may not get to be food to Ryuga. He punshies Tetsuya for sealing Ginkgas points by locking him a room. As the Battle Bladers comes closer, Tsubasa gets caught after attempting to send much needed information to Gingka and his friends. He defeats all of the [[Dark Nebula]]'s lower class bladers such as the Kumdi bros Dan and Reki Testuta and Dark Nebula bladers. but Ryuga shows up just in time to battle him. Just when Ryuga performs him final spin move, the mysterious [[Phoenix]] saves him and escapes. This causes Doji to become agitated, but interested in the masked blader. He then orders Tobio to battle in a challenge match and beat Ginka which he fails to do. He even tracks down his hiding place, only to find he's too late. However, his findings give him an idea of who exactly [[Phoenix|Phoenix is behind the mask]]. He and Yu later go to Koma Village to investigate but find nothing of use to them.[[File:96.jpg|thumb|left|Doji at Battle Bladers overseeing Reiji.]][[Battle Bladers]] begins, giving Doji an active role again. He kick starts the tournament with an opening speech, leading to [[Benkei Hanawa]] and [[Tobio Oike]]'s battle.He later gets disappointed in Yu for losing to Ginka and pleased at Rejji for being Heoma. After the first round, Doji, unsatisfied with the [[Dark Nebula]]'s string of defeats, sends the losers to [[Ryuga]] to become food. Yu, among these, battles Reiji for a "warming up". [[Flame Libra T125ES]] and Yu himself suffer great damage, but he manages to escape, surprising both Doji and Reiji.
[[File:185px-DojiEnd.jpg|thumb|Doji losing his soul to L Drago.]]In episode 48, Doji breaks free from the crystals. He becomes crazed for [[Ryo Hagane]]'s defeat, claiming that he will defeat him, even with his damaged [[Dark Wolf]]. On his way out of the [[Dark Nebula]] building, he runs into [[Ryuga]]. [[Ryuga]] says he has no need for frightened people as Doji was concerned that he wasn't powerful on his own to defeat Gingka. Unfortunately, Ryuga thought Doji didn't think he was powerful on his own and launched L-Drago out. Doji launched his shattered Dark Wolf, and Doji loses. L-Drago then takes all the power out of Doji, his soul included. After L-Drago was completely defeated, Doji's soul, like everyone else's souls, was placed back to his body.

[[File:Episode46d.jpg|thumb|Doji challenging Kenta to a battle.]]Before the 2nd round begins The Master of Ceremonies exercises his right to change the order of who battles who, which angers Gingka and his friends. Anyone failing to follow his rules will be disqualified, he says. From there until the semi-finals, he oversees the battles getting pleased with Ryuga and Rejji for crushing Kenta and Tubassa. He also says that Ryutro will have to battle Rejji for losing to Ginka.
===Beyblade: Metal Masters===
 
   
 
Before Rejji and Ginkas battle in the semi-finals, he successfully captures Yu which makes Kenta Yumiya and Hyoma try to stop him, pleasing Doji knowing he can give more food to Ryuga. As expected, the two arrive, causing Doji and Dark Nebula bladers to take action. Kenta reaches a room with a crystal chandelier, where he meets with Doji.

Doji, seeing this as an act of desperation, performs his spin move on both beys. He defeats both Kenta and Hyoma, who are on the floor.
It was revealed by [[Dr. Ziggurat]] that Doji was sent to retrieve [[Lightning L-Drago 100HF]], raise [[Ryuga]] and release their power to take over the world. [[Dark Nebula]] was created for the sole purpose of using [[Ryuga]]. Dr. Ziggurat was behind the entire operation, revealing himself to be Doji's boss and Dark Nebula's real owner, HD Academy.
 
   
 
Right before he goes to take their soles to Ryuga Phoenix interrupts, appearing out of nowhere. This angers Doji greatly, for this was the second time Phoenix interfered.

He becomes crazed for [[Ryo Hagane]]'s defeat, claiming that he will defeat him, even with his damaged [[Dark Wolf]]. On his way out of the [[Dark Nebula]] building, he runs into [[Ryuga]]. [[Ryuga]] says he has no need for frightened people as Doji was concerned that he wasn't powerful on his own to defeat Gingka. Unfortunately, Ryuga thought Doji didn't think he was powerful on his own and launched L-Drago out. Doji launched his shattered Dark Wolf, and Doji loses.

After being absent for one whole season, Doji finally returned in ''Metal Fury'' but in a damaged state due to his assault by Lightning L-Drago. Doji found [[Rago]] and the [[Nemesis Bladers]] and brought them to [[Pluto]] at the mystic ruins, to show his loyalty to [[Nemesis]]. He officially reveals himself to the Legend Bladers in episode 140. He mentions that he had been working for Hades Inc the whole time and that all of the event prior had lead up to Nemesis' return as planned. Him and Pluto are working together to bring the return of Nemesis to destroy the world. However, when Ryuga is facing Nemesis, he is knocked back by an explosion, falling off a cliff and assumingly dies again.
 
 
===Beyblade: Metal Masters===
 
Even though Doji didn't appear in metal masters (except for flashbacks). It was revealed by [[Dr. Ziggurat]] that Doji was sent to retrieve [[Lightning L-Drago 100HF]], raise [[Ryuga]] and release their power to take over the world. [[Dark Nebula]] was created for the sole purpose of using [[Ryuga]]. Dr. Ziggurat was behind the entire operation, revealing himself to be Doji's boss and Dark Nebula's real owner, HD Academy. it was also revealed that Ziggurat was also the mastermind behind Doji's actions in ''Beyblade: Metal Fusion'', planning to use L-Drago for his experiments, which finally resulted in an alternate energy source he dubbed Spiral Force, powered by the bey Twisted Tempo, which was based on both L-Drago and Pegasus and wielded by Faust.

=== Beyblade: Metal Fury ===
  +
After being absent for one whole season, Doji finally returned in ''Metal Fury'' but in a damaged state due to his assault by Lightning L-Drago. Doji found [[Rago]] and the [[Nemesis Bladers]] and brought them to [[Pluto]] at the mystic ruins, to show his loyalty to [[Nemesis]]. It was later revealed by Doji that both him and Ziggurat were members of the cult all along and both their search for L-Drago and Dr. Ziggurat's Spiral Force were part of the cult's plan to revive their god to destroy the world and recreate it in their image. When the legendary bladers fought Nemesis, who was still in his prototype form, Doji manipulated Ryuga by provoking him as all bladers had to work together to lock Nemesis away with Zeus' Barrier. He even calls him a pawn in hades Grand plan and by saying how pathtic he is to be frends with Ginka. this resulted in Ryuga attacking Nemesis alone and the dark bey being revived, Doji, Pluto, and Rago, the blader who wielded Nemesis, fled the temple they were in and went to the lost city of King Hades as this was the place where they wanted to build their new kingdom after releasing Nemesis' full power to destroy the world. However, Ryuga had followed them to fight Nemesis alone once more, seeking the bey's power for himself. During the battle, Doji taunted Ryuga about being weaker than Nemesis until Ryuga, enraged by this, released a new Special Move to attack Nemesis. Despite it couldn't destroy Nemesis, the impact from forbidden beys clashing was enough to send Doji falling down into the abyss, who was laughing maniacally, claiming it to be the best feeling in the world.

While he is physically dead, it is revealed that Merci has preserved his body long enough to be able to create a digital version of his personality. United with Merci's system, Doji has secretly been pulling the threads of the DNA organization as a revival of Dark Nebula - even the name stands for 'Dark Nebula Again'. He even uses Kira Hayama to be the strongest and take over the beyblade world with the help of Argo Garcia and his Syblings.

During the Wbba team challenge matches he stops the battle between the Wbba and DNA to let Merci do all the talking and appears as a holographic version of himself. He kidnaps Gingka though Biihu Xio having him give the Pegsus worrior wheal to Kira creating Pegsus Batmote, and gathers all the protagonists at the DNA headquarters for a final battle against the organization.
   
 
However,the DNA bladers are all deafted by Zero and his friends including Sako. After Kira loses against Zyro, Doji enters a robot body he had prepared. It first appears more like a giant beetle, but then transforms into a mega-sized beyblade. After this bey-version of Doji is defeated by Gingka Zyro and a redeemed Kria it starts malfunctioning. Determined to not let them win over him, Doji throws himself down a hole in the building, causing an explosion that destroys the entire headquarters. Before this, he states that Gingka and the others would not be there to see the 'future of beyblading' which they speak about. His plan ultimately failed when everyone, including the DNA Bladers, escaped from the building and Doji was lost for good.

==Relationships==
 
===''Ryuga''===
 
Doji and [[Ryuga]] worked hand in hand since they had raided [[Koma Village]], stolen the Forbidden Bey and defeated [[Ryo Hagane]]. They both followed a plan to unleash L-Drago's true power upon the world, which ultimately backfired in the end. Doji set up [[Battle Bladers]] in order to get plenty of strong bladers together for the purpose of feeding power to L-Drago. Doji's efforts greatly powered up the Forbidden Bey since they had stolen it. However, he didn't believe L-Drago was strong enough to defeat [[Gingka Hagane]], even after sending the defeated [[Dark Nebula]] members to their misery. This decision causes him to capture Yu, defeat both Kenta and Hyoma and battle Phoenix, only to end in defeat. [[Ryuga]] confronts his crazed self, only to find that Doji had been going to extreme lengths to obtain more food for him. Believing that Doji was doing this only because he thought L-Drago was too weak, Ryuga breaks Dark Wolf in half, taking Doji's soul in the process.
 
   
 
*'''[[Phantom Fenrir T125JB]]: '''Doji's new beyblade in Beyblade: Shogun Steel.
Doji's return in Metal Fury only made their relationship worse. As revenge for the damage L-Drago had done, Doji degrades Ryuga for helping Gingka out. He plays with the L-Drago user's emotions as if he knows exactly what's going on in his head. By doing this, he was able to make Ryuga leave Zeus's Barrier, causing Nemesis to awaken. However, Doji wasn't done toying with Ryuga yet, as he continues to taunt him for being used for the plan. This angers Ryuga greatly, turning his initial disgust for Doji into pure hatred. And then died soon after Ryuga's and Rago's battle.
 
   
  +
===Special Moves===
They both seem to see each other as a past they need to put an end to - in Metal Masters Ryuuga faces the HD Academy in order to free himself from his Dark Nebula past and in 4D Daidouji seems to specifically aim for a mental 'win' over Ryuuga, in order to get revenge for the health damage done to him. 
 
  +
'''[[Darkness Howling Blazer]]''': Doji's first and only special move. Doji first used this attack in episode 3 (anime).

[[Dr. Ziggurat]] didn't reveal himself to be the mastermind behind Doji and [[Dark Nebula]] until he brought Ryuga to HD Academy. [[Dr. Ziggurat]] and Doji most likely had a boss/employee relationship, although conversations between them were never seen in the anime. He was responsible for sending Doji to find the Forbidden Bey, bring Ryuga to it, bring him up to his fullest potential and ultimately unleash the power of L-Drago upon the world. The plan backfired, and since then, it is unknown if Dr. Ziggurat and Doji have talked.
 
 
===''Pluto''===
 
Now Doji's new boss, [[Pluto]] sent him to search for the Child of Nemesis. Near a waterfall, Doji discovers a prison-like cave, where the rightful owner of [[Diablo Nemesis]], [[Rago]] and his [[Nemesis Bladers]] are found. Certain that he is the one, he takes all four of them with him to the Temple of Pluto. As seen in [[Beyblade: Metal Fury - Episode 33|episode 135]] , Doji appears to have great respect for [[Pluto]], bowing down to him. The two are working together to serve Rago, bring the return of Nemesis and destroy the world all together.
 
 
===''Yu Tendo''===
 
In the beginning, Yu's and Doji's relationship seemed fairly relaxed. It's been shown that Doji even went out of his way to design a huge playing room with a great amount of toys for Yu. He's been fairly lenient for Yu's requests as well and usually let him casually spend time at his office. Doji even attempted to tell Yu about his feelings (concerning cacti, specifically), but it ended up a one-sided monologue, seeing Yu was never interested.
 
 
Their fairly good relation immediately changed by the time Yu started being influenced as Ginga and seeing Beyblading as fun. Any friendliness Doji ever showed him vanishd completely, being replaced by the strict cruelty he also displays to other members of the Dark Nebula. It seems as if he saw Yu's change of heart as such as treason.

Revision as of 06:10, 13 July 2020

This is an article about the anime character. For the manga counterpart of the same name, see here.


Doji (大道寺, Daidouji) was one of the main antagonists of the Metal Saga. He was an enemy of Gingka Hagane and the former leader of Dark Nebula who had Ryuga. He used to own Dark Wolf DF145FS. Doji seeked the power of the "Forbidden Bey", Lightning L-Drago 100HF.

Doji and Ryuga were the ones who invaded Koma Village, Gingka's hometown, and stole the Forbidden Bey Lightning L-Drago from it. Being the head of Dark Nebula, and having Ryuga on his side, he arranged the Battle Bladers tournament in order to give Ryuga more power so they could eventually rule the world. This plan backfired when Ryuga used the dark power of L-Drago and attacked Doji; sucking most of the life energy within him for L-Drago and left him waiting for death.

Doji6

Doji as seen on Beyblade.com

Despite this major damage to his health, Doji would not give up and started to wear a long coat that covered his body, a top hat, an artificial leg, and a walking cane due to the attack he suffered at the hands of L-Drago. As a result, he found Rago and the Nemesis Bladers and brought them to Pluto as he made his ultimate return in Beyblade: Metal Fury, only to die once again due to Ryuga's new Special Move.

Doji finally returned in the Shogun Steel anime in A New War, but this time, he was apparently revived by Merci. He was converted to light energy stored within the Hades computer system and being placed in a machine known as Robo Doji. His new form poses as a threat to the WBBA and the future of Beyblading. In addition, Doji is the secret mastermind behind Team Garcias's organization: DNA, which stands for Dark Nebula Again.

Appearance

Doji appears to be a wealthy businessman. With a pair of hexagonal shaped glasses, a purple suit and a red tie, he passes off as an intelligent, wealthy young man. He keeps a comb in his chest pocket and is seen in many episodes using it only to comb his golden streak in his hair, which he appears to love.

In Metal Fury, Doji's appearance changes considerably. Instead of glasses, he now wears a monocle while his other eye is covered by hair and has a scar passing through it. He now needs a cane for walking. His clothes seem more old-fashioned than his previous ones - he wears a long grey coat and a frilly white cravat. His hair has changed from black into a lighter grey.

His hologram looks in the Zero-G series shifts back to the first season design, implying this is how he still wishes to be seen.

Personality

Doji is a person who never really gets serious even if his enemies were strong such as Gingka. He is also a person who doesn't like to show his real power, especially not to children. Doji is extremely cruel, often punishing members of the Dark Nebula by "feeding" their power to Lightning L-Drago 100HF. He is never one to give up on his goals and desires, as he uses his intellect to get ahead of his enemies. He always speaks in a polite manner, even to his enemies, but there's no mistaking the arrogance in what he says. He'll frequently access people as 'my friend' in a condescending manner. Generally, he appears to never accept people as being on his level.

As shown in Metal Fury, Doji has a habit of taunting those who oppose him. In episode 141, he even goes so far to anger Ryuga by making note of him helping Gingka, as well as degrading him to a mere pawn in Hades Inc's plan. It's a form of manipulation, as he clearly nows this will cause Ryuga to immediately stop any cooperation with the other Legendary Bladers. Doji appears to take great enjoyment of taunting Ryuga, as he laughs hysterically at the Dragon Emperor's reactions. He has even done this to Gingka back in Metal Fusion when he "awakened" Lightning L-Drago.

Socially, Doji keeps his distance (Yu was the only one who had the potential to form a friendship with him.) He only associates with those who can be of use to him. Powerful bladers like Ryuga and Rago deserve the upmost respect, in his mind. Although Doji doesn't get close to others, he has the ability to "play others emotions like a piano". This is shown in episode 3 or Metal Fusion when he agitates Kyoya to the point where he bets on his free will. He also does this in Metal Fury to Ryuga in order to mess up the Zeus Barrier.

In private, he has a conflicted relation with his own interests. He claims to 'hate cacti so much that he can't think about anything else'. The true reason for this, as Doji further describes, is that they are so prickly that he can't hug them. This sort of utter obsession with things he can't have seems to be a large part of his character motivation. In the anime version of Zero G, he is especially driven by this - given he is physically dead, he can't have any form of physical sensation which he now misses terribly. 

Biography

Not much is known about Doji's past. The only scene involving Doji was the event in which Ryuga obtained the "Forbidden Bey", Lightning L-Drago 100HF. Doji most likely found out where it was and lead Ryuga to Koma Village - The Beyblade Village where Gingka grew up in . He was seen helping Ryuga reach the Bey by launching his Dark Wolf against the traps and even Gingka's father, Ryo Hagane. It was most likely his decision to place Ryuga in a coma until Lightning L-Drago 100HF could awaken to it's full potential. At that point, Doji was loyal to Ryuga as he wanted to train him and L-Drago. However, it was revealed later that raising Ryuga was only meant for using him for Hades Inc's grand plan.

Doji challenging Kyoya to a battle.

After Gingka Hagane left Koma Village on his quest, Doji kept a low profile as he waited for L-Drago's power to awaken. After hearing that Ginka beat Kyoya Tategami He began making small negotiations with him and his gang the Face Hunters Refusing to make an agreement with him without a fight, Kyoya challenges Doji to a bey battle, promising to do whatever he is told if he loses. Despite the weather conditions being in Kyoya's favor, his lack of skills leads to his defeat, forcing him to keep his promise. Doji was the one to offer Dark Bull H145SD, Benkei Hanawa's current beyblade to him in order to defeat Gingka,and that defeating Gingka is the only way to get back Kyoya until Doji says so. Benki however fails to beat Ginka after he trained with his new Beyblade. He is later seen observing Kyoyas progress in Beyblade then sends him to Wolf Cannon to find the fangs of the heart needed to beat Ginka. He even uses his Ai Mercy to gather data on Ginka so he can be deafted which he succeeds in gathering data for the Dark Nebula. After Kyoya's training is complete he sends him to the city to challenge Ginka which goes both ways and it looks like Ginka may lose which pleases Doji. However in the end Ginka wins.

After the battle Doji shows up, revealing himself to be behind Kyoyas training and his new powers. Gingka challenges Doji to a battle but Doji denies the challenge and mentions his corporation Dark Nebula Organization and says that Kyoya's training was less than adequate and viciously attacks Kyoya at the scene. He invites Gingka and his friends to the Dark Nebula Castle, where he awaits them. Once they arrive they are stalled by Defenses put up by Doji so Gingka and co. cannot enter the castle. Gingka and co. and Doji are surprised at the site that Kyoya has arrived in order to help them. Gingka and co. manage to breakthrough by combining their special moves. Doji and Merci have prepared traps to stop them, but they still succeed in passing by all of Doji's tasks and challenges including taking down Dan and Reiki Sodo. Ginka reaches Doji and challenges him to a battle as revenge for his father after refusing Dojis offer to join Dark Nebula. A battle sparks between the two, causing Ryuga to awaken from his coma. Doji loses, but this fails to faze him. He oversees Ryuga and Gingka's battle, knowing that Storm Pegasus 105RF is actually feeding power to L-Drago. Gingka loses, and Doji reveals that it was Gingka himself that helped L-Drago awaken, causing the boy to fall in shame.

Ryuga's awakening causes Doji to appear less often, usually spending time in his office overseeing Ryugas battles with Dark Nebula troops. He did, however, find Yu Tendo, hired him after he lost to Ryuga in the desert and sent him off to the Survival Battle, which he wins in by beating Gingka and Kyoya. As a reward for winning the Survival Battle, the WBBA grants whatever wish the winner chooses to grant. Yu, as instructed to do, asks for Battle Bladers to become possible. The crowds shout in approval for this wish. As Blader DJ willingly agrees to this, Doji shows up in a helicopter, revealing that not only will his organization sponsor it, but he will also become Master of Ceremonies, granting him the power to do whatever he wishes with the tournament. Both him and Yu agree to only allow bladers with 50000 beypoints entry into the tournament. He than explains that battle Bladers will make everyone know Ryuga as the king of all bladers once he wins the tornment. After making their announcement, Doji, Yu and Ryuga take their leave, despite Gingka's great disapproval. On the helicopter ride back, Doji reveals to Yu that he didn't think Battle Bladers would have been possible without him. He didn't believe there were worthy enough bladers to be Ryuga's food. He then explains that when Ryuga wins Dark nebula will unleash a dark power on the world controlling everything.

Doji spends all of his time in his office, sometimes with Yu as they await the beginning of Battle Bladers. During this time, he recruits many new members of Dark Nebula, including Tsubasa Otori, Tetsuya Watarigani, Tobio Oike, Ryutaro Fukami and Reiji Mizuchi. He makes use of a machine to upgrade light wheel beyblades to metal wheel ones. Examples of this are Dark Gasher CH120FS and Evil Gemios DF145FS. He sends his bladers to many challenge matches to study Ginkas frends. One victory came when Yu and Tubassa beat Hyoma and Kenta, while Testuta beat Benki at a challenge match, but lost to Ginka He later sends Yu Tubasa Dan and Reki to a challenge match to find new bladers to recruit. However in the end Dan and Reki and eliminated and Yu and Tubasa lose the battle royal.

Later Doji learns that Ginka lost his beypoints which concerns him as Ginka may not get to be food to Ryuga. He punshies Tetsuya for sealing Ginkgas points by locking him a room. As the Battle Bladers comes closer, Tsubasa gets caught after attempting to send much needed information to Gingka and his friends. He defeats all of the Dark Nebula's lower class bladers such as the Kumdi bros Dan and Reki Testuta and Dark Nebula bladers. but Ryuga shows up just in time to battle him. Just when Ryuga performs him final spin move, the mysterious Phoenix saves him and escapes. This causes Doji to become agitated, but interested in the masked blader. He then orders Tobio to battle in a challenge match and beat Ginka which he fails to do. He even tracks down his hiding place, only to find he's too late. However, his findings give him an idea of who exactly Phoenix is behind the mask. He and Yu later go to Koma Village to investigate but find nothing of use to them.

Doji at Battle Bladers overseeing Reiji.

Battle Bladers begins, giving Doji an active role again. He kick starts the tournament with an opening speech, leading to Benkei Hanawa and Tobio Oike's battle.He later gets disappointed in Yu for losing to Ginka and pleased at Rejji for being Heoma. After the first round, Doji, unsatisfied with the Dark Nebula's string of defeats, sends the losers to Ryuga to become food. Yu, among these, battles Reiji for a "warming up". Flame Libra T125ES and Yu himself suffer great damage, but he manages to escape, surprising both Doji and Reiji.

Episode46d

Doji challenging Kenta to a battle.

Before the 2nd round begins The Master of Ceremonies exercises his right to change the order of who battles who, which angers Gingka and his friends. Anyone failing to follow his rules will be disqualified, he says. From there until the semi-finals, he oversees the battles getting pleased with Ryuga and Rejji for crushing Kenta and Tubassa. He also says that Ryutro will have to battle Rejji for losing to Ginka.

Before Rejji and Ginkas battle in the semi-finals, he successfully captures Yu which makes Kenta Yumiya and Hyoma try to stop him, pleasing Doji knowing he can give more food to Ryuga. As expected, the two arrive, causing Doji and Dark Nebula bladers to take action. Kenta reaches a room with a crystal chandelier, where he meets with Doji. They battle for only a short while, as Kenta was using a stolen light wheel bey. Right when Wolf goes for the kill, Hyoma's Rock Aries ED145B sends Dark Wolf away, but this only starts a battle between Aries and Wolf. Doji, knowing that Hyoma doesn't have as much power as he started with, tires him out. Just when Hyoma is ready to give in, Kenta launches his greatly damaged Flame Sagittario C145ES at Dark Wolf, placing a chip in between the metal wheel in the process. Doji, seeing this as an act of desperation, performs his spin move on both beys. He defeats both Kenta and Hyoma, who are on the floor.

Right before he goes to take their soles to Ryuga Phoenix interrupts, appearing out of nowhere. This angers Doji greatly, for this was the second time Phoenix interfered. Despite this, Doji calmly and confidently challenges him to a battle, determined to defeat him once and for all. Strategically, Doji doesn't show his true power until Phoenix proves that he will require it. He sends both Phoenix and his beast under a black hole of darkness. When he almost had them finished, Phoenix reappears out of the hole, sends Burning Firestrike straight for Flame Sagittario C145ES chip wedged in the Dark wheel and cracks Wolf's facebolt in the center. This sends Doji across the room and the impact sends the crystal chandelier on him.

Doji losing his soul to L Drago.

Later, Doji breaks free from the crystals. He becomes crazed for Ryo Hagane's defeat, claiming that he will defeat him, even with his damaged Dark Wolf. On his way out of the Dark Nebula building, he runs into Ryuga. Ryuga says he has no need for frightened people as Doji was concerned that he wasn't powerful on his own to defeat Gingka. Unfortunately, Ryuga thought Doji didn't think he was powerful on his own and launched L-Drago out. Doji launched his shattered Dark Wolf, and Doji loses. L-Drago then takes all the power out of Doji, his soul included. After L-Drago was completely defeated, Doji's soul, like everyone else's souls, was placed back to his body.

Beyblade: Metal Masters

Even though Doji didn't appear in metal masters (except for flashbacks). It was revealed by Dr. Ziggurat that Doji was sent to retrieve Lightning L-Drago 100HF, raise Ryuga and release their power to take over the world. Dark Nebula was created for the sole purpose of using Ryuga. Dr. Ziggurat was behind the entire operation, revealing himself to be Doji's boss and Dark Nebula's real owner, HD Academy. it was also revealed that Ziggurat was also the mastermind behind Doji's actions in Beyblade: Metal Fusion, planning to use L-Drago for his experiments, which finally resulted in an alternate energy source he dubbed Spiral Force, powered by the bey Twisted Tempo, which was based on both L-Drago and Pegasus and wielded by Faust.

Beyblade: Metal Fury

After being absent for one whole season, Doji finally returned in Metal Fury but in a damaged state due to his assault by Lightning L-Drago. Doji found Rago and the Nemesis Bladers and brought them to Pluto at the mystic ruins, to show his loyalty to Nemesis. It was later revealed by Doji that both him and Ziggurat were members of the cult all along and both their search for L-Drago and Dr. Ziggurat's Spiral Force were part of the cult's plan to revive their god to destroy the world and recreate it in their image. When the legendary bladers fought Nemesis, who was still in his prototype form, Doji manipulated Ryuga by provoking him as all bladers had to work together to lock Nemesis away with Zeus' Barrier. He even calls him a pawn in hades Grand plan and by saying how pathtic he is to be frends with Ginka. this resulted in Ryuga attacking Nemesis alone and the dark bey being revived, Doji, Pluto, and Rago, the blader who wielded Nemesis, fled the temple they were in and went to the lost city of King Hades as this was the place where they wanted to build their new kingdom after releasing Nemesis' full power to destroy the world. However, Ryuga had followed them to fight Nemesis alone once more, seeking the bey's power for himself. During the battle, Doji taunted Ryuga about being weaker than Nemesis until Ryuga, enraged by this, released a new Special Move to attack Nemesis. Despite it couldn't destroy Nemesis, the impact from forbidden beys clashing was enough to send Doji falling down into the abyss, who was laughing maniacally, claiming it to be the best feeling in the world.

Beyblade: Shogun Steel

While he is physically dead, it is revealed that Merci has preserved his body long enough to be able to create a digital version of his personality. United with Merci's system, Doji has secretly been pulling the threads of the DNA organization as a revival of Dark Nebula - even the name stands for 'Dark Nebula Again'. He even uses Kira Hayama to be the strongest and take over the beyblade world with the help of Argo Garcia and his Syblings.

During the Wbba team challenge matches he stops the battle between the Wbba and DNA to let Merci do all the talking and appears as a holographic version of himself. He kidnaps Gingka though Biihu Xio having him give the Pegsus worrior wheal to Kira creating Pegsus Batmote, and gathers all the protagonists at the DNA headquarters for a final battle against the organization.

However,the DNA bladers are all deafted by Zero and his friends including Sako. After Kira loses against Zyro, Doji enters a robot body he had prepared. It first appears more like a giant beetle, but then transforms into a mega-sized beyblade. After this bey-version of Doji is defeated by Gingka Zyro and a redeemed Kria it starts malfunctioning. Determined to not let them win over him, Doji throws himself down a hole in the building, causing an explosion that destroys the entire headquarters. Before this, he states that Gingka and the others would not be there to see the 'future of beyblading' which they speak about. His plan ultimately failed when everyone, including the DNA Bladers, escaped from the building and Doji was lost for good.

Relationships

Ryuga

Doji and Ryuga worked hand in hand since they had raided Koma Village, stolen the Forbidden Bey and defeated Ryo Hagane. They both followed a plan to unleash L-Drago's true power upon the world, which ultimately backfired in the end. Doji set up Battle Bladers in order to get plenty of strong bladers together for the purpose of feeding power to L-Drago. Doji's efforts greatly powered up the Forbidden Bey since they had stolen it. However, he didn't believe L-Drago was strong enough to defeat Gingka Hagane, even after sending the defeated Dark Nebula members to their misery. This decision causes him to capture Yu, defeat both Kenta and Hyoma and battle Phoenix, only to end in defeat. Ryuga confronts his crazed self, only to find that Doji had been going to extreme lengths to obtain more food for him. Believing that Doji was doing this only because he thought L-Drago was too weak, Ryuga breaks Dark Wolf in half, taking Doji's soul in the process.

Doji's return in Metal Fury only made their relationship worse. As revenge for the damage L-Drago had done, Doji degrades Ryuga for helping Gingka out. He plays with the L-Drago user's emotions as if he knows exactly what's going on in his head. By doing this, he was able to make Ryuga leave Zeus's Barrier, causing Nemesis to awaken. However, Doji wasn't done toying with Ryuga yet, as he continues to taunt him for being used for the plan. This angers Ryuga greatly, turning his initial disgust for Doji into pure hatred. And then died soon after Ryuga's and Rago's battle as the force from L-Drago pushed him off the edge of a cliff.

They both seem to see each other as a past they need to put an end to - in Metal Masters, Ryuga faces the HD Academy in order to free himself from his Dark Nebula past and in 4D, Doji seems to specifically aim for a mental 'win' over Ryuga, in order to get revenge for the health damage done to him and betrayal. 

Dr. Ziggurat

Dr. Ziggurat didn't reveal himself to be the mastermind behind Doji and Dark Nebula until he brought Ryuga to HD Academy. Dr. Ziggurat and Doji most likely had a boss/employee relationship, although conversations between them were never seen in the anime. He was responsible for sending Doji to find the Forbidden Bey, bring Ryuga to it, bring him up to his fullest potential and ultimately unleash the power of L-Drago upon the world. The plan backfired, and since then, it is unknown if Dr. Ziggurat and Doji have talked.

Pluto

Now Doji's new boss, Pluto sent him to search for the Child of Nemesis. Near a waterfall, Doji discovers a prison-like cave, where the rightful owner of Diablo Nemesis, Rago and his Nemesis Bladers are found. Certain that he is the one, he takes all four of them with him to the Temple of Pluto. As seen in episode 135 , Doji appears to have great respect for Pluto, bowing down to him. The two are working together to serve Rago, bring the return of Nemesis and destroy the world all together.

Yu Tendo

In the beginning, Yu's and Doji's relationship seemed fairly relaxed. It's been shown that Doji even went out of his way to design a huge playing room with a great amount of toys for Yu. He's been fairly lenient for Yu's requests as well and usually let him casually spend time at his office. Doji even attempted to tell Yu about his feelings (concerning cacti, specifically), but it ended up a one-sided monologue, seeing Yu was never interested.

Their fairly good relation immediately changed by the time Yu started being influenced as Ginga and seeing Beyblading as fun. Any friendliness Doji ever showed him vanishd completely, being replaced by the strict cruelty he also displays to other members of the Dark Nebula. It seems as if he saw Yu's change of heart as such as treason.

Kyoya 

At first Kyoya did not trust Doji. but after losing to him in the mountains he knew he had to train with Dark nebula. After getting new powers in Wolf cannon he fought Ginka again he lost. Soon after that Doji calmed Kyoya didn't get much training and injured him and Leone. Once he realized the plan was for Doji to use him as a pawn, Kyoya joined Ginka in defeating the Dark Neubua.

Trivia

  • Doji enjoys drinking orange juice stored in fancy and luxurious wine bottles and wine glasses to "replenish his body with vitamins" and also likes eating dry-cured ham and goat cheese claiming that it is "Mankind's greatest invention."
  • He also has an apparent hatred for cacti, though he secretly loved them.
  • He and Ryuga are the only characters from Metal Fusion who didn't show up in the final picture of Blader's Spirit.
  • Whenever Doji appears, most of the time only one side of his eyeglasses is seen which is right and in some episodes, it is seen on the left side.
  • When he removes his eyeglasses during battle, he has a dark aura and his opponent gets captured in a dark bottomless hole as seen with his battle with Phoenix.
  • In Metal Fury, he reappears with a scar on the left side of his face. The scar might possibly stem from Lightning L-Drago's attack on him in Metal Fusion. This is further supported as the according eye blacks out the moment he falls in that episode. In Metal Fury, the eye is passed by the scar and he only wears a monocle over his other eye. This indicates the scarred eye is blind or made of glass, seeing it's no longer in need of eyeglasses.
  • In Metal Fury, Doji did not obtain and or use a new Bey.
  • Doji has been nearly killed by Ryuga twice. The first being in Metal Fusion when Ryuga sucked out all of Doji's life force. The second being in Metal Fury when he causes Doji to be thrown off a cliff.
  • In Metal Fury, his hair is grey, most likely due to Lightning L-Drago stealing his life force.
  • Doji manipulating experienced bladers into his plans makes him similar to Boris Balkov from the original series.
    • Both antagonists were also revealed to have served under another antagonist before becoming independent themselves after that antagonist disappeared.
    • Both Doji and Boris shares the same Japanese voice actor: Takehito Koyasu.
  • He resembles Masamune Kadoya and because of that, many thought Masamune was his son. It turns out they are not related at all. The only connection they share is that Masamune wears clothes of the brand 'Daido-G' which is a sub company of the Dark Nebula organization. This has been confirmed by Takafumi Adachi on his blog and might only be true for the manga canon.
  • It is also known to be that when Doji asked to change his bey parts to defeat Gingka, he first changed the fusion wheel to Dark fusion wheel as he did it for Benkei and Tetsuya.
  • The first form of his mecha in Shogun Steel resembles the E-12 Behemoth from Sonic X.
  • Doji is one of the only 2 veteran characters who battled in Shogun Steel, the other being Gingka Hagane.
  • Doji's recent Beyblade, Phantom Fenrir T125JB was never released.
