Hikaru Hizashi, known as Hikaru Asahi (朝日ヒカル, Asahi Hikaru) in Japan, is one of two main protagonists along with his younger brother, Hyuga, of the anime/manga series, Beyblade Burst Surge. He fought with his Beyblade Kolossal Helios Zone 1B, until it was destroyed by Lain Valhalla. He later evolved his destroyed Bey into Helios Blazebringer Ou Zone'+Z.
In Beyblade Burst QuadStrike, Hikaru returns as a participant in Wakiya's Battle Camp and Lodestar Battle Tournament, now fighting alongside his new Quad Beyblade, Komet Helios Fyquor-Q Planet-Q+Zeal-2.
Appearance
Hikaru is an average-height boy with slightly tanned skin, lime-green eyes, smooth blue hair styled in a 9-piece mohawk with light-blue tips, and an orange half-sun tattooed on his right cheek. His attire consists of a turquoise-blue dress shirt, a yellow tie, a short-sleeved navy-blue Letterman's jacket with light-blue sections on the sleeves and pockets, an "H" on the left flap, a yellow sun on the back, orange baggy pants, and black sneakers with turquoise-blue cuffs and three-sectioned stripped tips, and yellow laces, and a fingerless green-cuffed teal glove on his right hand.
When Hikaru resonates with his Beyblade, his hair briefly lights up like blue fire.
Personality
Hikaru is generally calm, patient and level-headed; preferring to analyze his opponents and come up with strategies to defeat them, unlike his brother, who is quite reckless and charges into battles head-on.
In contrast to his younger brother, Hikaru is level-headed, patient, cautious, mature, serious, and determined. But like Hyuga, he can often be immature, yet optimistic blader. He tends to be the voice of reason for Hyuga.
He's also shown to act heroic when he selflessly grabbed Hyuga's arm when the vine he was hanging from snapped, even referring to himself as a "hero", which implies that he has a moderate level of confidence but not as nearly as enough to border on arrogance. However, he is slightly arrogant and attention-seeking, as shown when the people asked Hikaru a question.
Although selfless, he can be self-absorbed at times, as shown when he take all the meat on the kebab sticks. Nevertheless, he’s a compassionate person and is very protective of his little brother Hyuga Hizashi. And is deeply loyal to his friends and family.
Biography
Background
Beyblade Burst (Manga)
Hizashi brothers Arc
Hikaru, along with his brother were first introduced in the chapter, Bey Revolutionaries?! Hyuga and Hikaru Join The Fray!! showing that they are helping with the family restaurant. The both would then be punished to mop the restaurant floor after Hyuga took a bite of a customer's dish and the duo fixed it by filling up the hole with ketchup which ended up becoming a turd. While they were mopping the floor, they were inspired to make their own Superking beys after watching the exhibition match between Valt, Rantaro and Ranjiro where the trio introduced the new system. Hikaru and Hyuga made their beys and called it King Helios Zone 1B and Super Hyperion Xceed 1A respectively. They went onto challenge multiple Beyblade gyms with their newly created beys and won all of their matches until they went to the Comets Gym where they stumbled upon the Kiyama brothers who were waiting for them to challenge. The brothers originally struggled to beat them until Ranjiro started mocking them causing the brothers to work together and won them by a Ring-out Finish with Limit Break.
After their match against the Kiyama brothers, they were invited by the wbba. to their HQ to be apart of the new ranking system. The brothers quarreled over their rankings and went to battle other bladers themselves rather than together. After getting B-Tier 98th in the ranking, he felt sympathy of his younger brother as his ranking dropped for losing most of his matches. He would give an advice to Hyuga during his match against Alexander Bottom, Chin Taizen and John Kiritani after the trio ridiculed his rank. His advice worked as Hyuga unlocked his Lightning Launch and defeated the trio.
After both of their rankings rosed, they got too cocky and decided to challenge the Legendary Bladers. They eventually came to find them and were shocked to see Silas Karlisle showing up in-front of them but was rejected for a battle as Silas does not want to battle them until the duo mentioned they have beaten Rantaro Kiyama. Silas was too stunned to believe it and he decided to challenge one of them. The brothers suggested a staring contest to determine who gets to battle Silas. Hikaru eventually wins the contest and gets to battle Silas. The battle starts out with Hikaru thinking his bey can knock out Satomb but was proven wrong when Silas explains Satomb's five rollers that are on the ring can deflect any coming attacks. Silas eventually wins the battle by ending it off with Universe Drift. Hikaru was devastated by the defeat but to not let his younger brother down, he cheers him up which made Silas respecting him as a blader.
After Hikaru's battle against Silas, he and his brother decided to travel to BC Sol to learn from the legends and master their Lightning Launch. They eventually got accepted by Valt to be their apprentice and through a series of training, they finally mastered it. The brothers were invited to attend a meeting hosted by the wbba. about Lain Valhalla's growing strength and Free's defeat to him which shocked everyone who attended the meeting. After this Hikaru observed the 3-Way battle royale between his younger brother, Lui and Lain. This battle shocked Hikaru due to Lain's strength and Lui's defeat to him which leaded the brothers wanting to challenge Lain. When Lain was about to decline the challenge, Lucifer started reacting to the brother's beys and accepted the challenge.
Beyblade Burst (anime)
Hikaru and his brother have been enjoying Beyblade for at least two years leading up to Beyblade Burst Surge, as shown by how Hikaru was inspired by Aiger Akabane during the latter's title match that took place two years ago. After Hikaru and Hyuga moved to the Hizashi Family Restaurant, they went into the Comets Gym for the first time to practice. There, they were greeted by Chuck, Guy, and Reina, who initially thought the brothers were breaking in. The three explained to Hikaru and his brother that the former coach quit, causing all the bladers on the team to quit as well. Determined to help, Hikaru and Hyuga asked to join the club, vowing to "bring the team back on its feet," Hikaru's exact words.
After joining the Comets, Hikaru and Hyuga got more serious about blading. They were shown to battle in district tournaments, attend exhibition matches featuring legendary bladers, and watch title matches.
Similar to the earlier parts of Beyblade Burst Surge, the brothers were known to argue due to their different styles of blading. Hikaru was very strategic and good at defending, while Hyuga formed no strategy and was good at attacking. Most of their tag battles at district matches ended in what Chuck recalled as a disaster, with both brothers losing.
Beyblade Burst Surge
Beyblades
- Kolossal Helios Zone 1B: Hikaru's primary Beyblade in Beyblade Burst Surge until it was destroyed by Lain Valhalla.
- Helios Blazebringer Ou Zone'+Z: Hikaru's evolved Limit Breaker Beyblade in Surge.
- Komet Helios Fyquor-Q Planet-Q+Zeal-2: Hikaru's Quad Beyblade in Beyblade Burst QuadStrike.
Launch Styles
- Lightning Launch: When a Blader has achieved complete synchronization with his Beyblade, the Launcher will illuminate and sparkle, granting the bey a temporary increase in speed and power.
Special Moves
- Whirl Counter: As Kolossal Helios/Helios Blazebringer spins, the Zone/Zone'+Z driver rotates faster to drift in a circle around the stadium, gaining speed and power, and then it attacks.
- Twin Strike: As they charge and collide toward one another, Helios and Hyperion build up speed as their Ring blades grind against each other while rotating in their respective spin directions, creating sparks and ram into the opposing Beyblades with combined force and power.
- Kolossal Strike: Using its ten blades and centrifugal force created by the Zone driver, Kolossal Helios deals massive damage to the opposing Beyblade.
- King Upper: King Helios channels its energy to the King Ring and attacks the opposing Bey from below to make a powerful uppercut.
- Blazing Limit Breaker: The Limit Breaker System allows the shape of the Blazebringer Ring to initiate a transformation, which causes the outer frame of the Blazebringer Ring to rapidly rotate, revealing 5 additional blades that can be used to reflect the damage of oncoming attacks back to the opposing Bey.
- Twin Limit Breaker: Utilizing a similar move with Twin Strike, Helios and Hyperion build up speed as their Rings grind against each other while rotating in their respective spin directions, creating sparks and ramming into the opposing Beyblades with combined force and power, which then triggers their Limit Break Systems, granting a boost of power that knocks the opposing Beyblades out of the stadium.
- Blazing Recoil: While in Limit Break mode, Helios uses the movable blades on the Blazebringer Ring to push off from the opponent Beyblade's oncoming attack and gain tremendous speed and power to crash into the opposing Beyblade.
- Twin Break Impact:
- Limit Break Counter: "Volcano" Ring. This moves requires the Bey to activate their Limit Breaker state.
- Planet Counter: After escaping an opponent's attack, Komet Helios uses its Planet-Q Driver or Zeal Armor Tip to redirect itself and strike its opponent to deal massive damage.
- Solar Launch: When in Balance Mode, Komet Helios uses its Zeal Armor Tip to accelerate and strike its opponents with a barrage of attacks.
- Komet Strike: Just like its predecessor, Kolossal Strike, Komet Helios uses its Zeal Armor Tip to rush in and crash into its opponent with its Komet Blade to deal massive damage.
