Ranjiro responded to Fubuki's insult by challenging Fubuki to a rematch which Ranjiro lost to a burst finish. Following this defeat, Ranjiro decided to train with his beyclub members to get stronger. While training, Tobisuke informed Ranjiro about the rematch between Aiger and Fubuki, so his beyclub and him went to Beigoma Academy to witness the battle in person. After the battle, he watched the announcement of an upcoming title match between [[Lui Shirasagi]] and [[Valt Aoi]] on Naru's tablet.

Ranjiro later rendezvous with Aiger and Fubuki and the three challenge Lui to a battle to which Lui decides to take them all on in a 3 vs1 battle. Aiger proposed that the three of them put aside their differences and work together, but Ranjiro declines this offer.

Ranjiro Kiyama (黄山 乱次郎, Kiyama Ranjiro), also known as Socho (ソーチョー / 総長, President) in Japan, and as Cap'n in the dub, is a character in the anime and manga series, Beyblade Burst Turbo. He is the younger brother of Rantaro Kiyama and the founder and leader of his own team, the Wild Bey Gang. He fights with his Beyblade, Crash Roktavor 11Reach Wedge, which he had upgraded from his brother's Raging Roktavor Gravity Revolve. Ranjiro started Beyblade by the influence of his brother. Ranjiro returns in Beyblade Burst Superking with his newly evolved Bey, Glide Ragnaruk Wheel Revolve 1S, which was destroyed by Lean Walhalla.

Appearance

Ranjiro's appearance looks similar to his brother, Rantaro. He has a huge flattop-style blonde hair, hazel eyes, and a bandage on his left cheek. Like his brother, Ranjiro also has a habit of chewing on a green and yellow lollipop.

In Turbo, his attire consists of a long white jacket with flame designs at the end and on his right shoulder region, an orange shirt, white wrapping around his waist, a pair of pants that are half black and half mahogany, white boots, and a white belt with an R-shaped buckle.

In Superking, he retains his boots, belt and buckle, waist wrapping and jacket, but the flames on the jacket ends are more serrated, a pair of baggy pants now colored half blue and half orange, and a yellow-orange dress shirt. Yet he still has some of his old design with him.

Personality

It's noted that Ranjiro seems to take after his brother, Rantaro, in some ways. This included being hot headed, especially when his hair is made fun of, as was noticed by Raul Comas, although Ranjiro seems to be more hot headed than Rantaro. This is further proven when he was easily offended by Hikaru Asahi and Hyuga Asahi calling him Broomhead and even went to the extreme of chasing them to the Bombers Gym. He also demonstrates exceptional leadership skills.

Ranjiro is also very protective of those he cares about, as he accompanied Aiger on his journey to Dread Tower after noticing him being consumed by his obsession with resonance. He is somewhat overconfident as he underestimated Hikaru he was shocked to see Hikaru do a sparking shoot and was angered in disbelief when Hikaru, managed to knock Glide Ragnaruk out in a draw. He is also very competitive as he competed against Hyuga and Silas Karlisle in a series of physical training and was also quick to declare that he would win in a rematch between Hyuga as well as Aiger.

Biography

When he was young, Ranjiro always looked up to his older brother, Rantaro and strived to be as good as him one day. After hearing form his friend Tobisuke that Fubuki Sumiye had gotten a Turbo bey, he decided to upgrade his handed-down Raging Roktavor into Crash Roktavor. He then set off to challenge Fubuki and his Bey, Emperor Forneus, which he won with little effort. This win impressed four Bladers: Harumi Hijikawa, Benimaru, Gumita, and Jonji to leave the Beigoma Academy BeyClub and led Ranjiro to form their own team, the Wild Bey Gang.

Background

Beyblade Burst Turbo

Ranjiro was first introduced in episode 2, where he punched the wall in anger as his entire beyclub had lost to Aiger Akabane. He planned to confront Aiger to get revenge for the BeyClub's loss.

In episode 3, he challenged Aiger to a battle based on the Wild Bey Gang rule which was that the battle will only conclude once a person gets a burst finish. After 149 battles, after many draws and ring out finishes, both Ranjiro and Aiger were too exhausted to continue battling. They collapsed to the ground and showed respect towards each other before declaring that they both would win, the next time they battle.

In episode 4, he caught Tobisuke red handed trying to smash Aiger's bey. Upset, he reprimanded the enitire Wild Bey Gang. Fubuki who heard the incident, insulted Ranjiro saying that he would never acknowledge the Wild Bey Gang as bladers. Ranjiro responded to Fubuki's insult by challenging Fubuki to a rematch which Ranjiro lost to a burst finish. Following this defeat, Ranjiro decided to train with his beyclub members to get stronger. While training, Tobisuke informed Ranjiro about the rematch between Aiger and Fubuki, so his beyclub and him went to Beigoma Academy to witness the battle in person. After the battle, he watched the announcement of an upcoming title match between Lui Shirasagi and Valt Aoi on Naru's tablet.

In episode 5, he was seen watching the title match between Lui and Valt live. Harumi told him that they would be watching the battle closely and Ranjiro responded that Valt was going to win.

In episode 6, Ranjiro gathers with other Beigoma Academy's students around Aiger's tent to see what the commotion was about, and wakes Aiger up from his dream of beating Valt and Lui. Tobisuke and Gumita runs to inform them of the Luinor Cup, where the blader who wins the tournament gets to challenge Lui. Ranjiro later rendezvous with Aiger and Fubuki and the three challenge Lui to a battle to which Lui decides to take them all on in a 3 vs1 battle. Aiger proposed that the three of them put aside their differences and work together, but Ranjiro declines this offer. After a failed attempt at simulating the battle, he decides to work together with Fubuki and Aiger. The three trained hard till they were exhausted, However their efforts were futile as Lui was able to burst all 3 of them.

In episode 7, Ranjiro trains by doing squats while carrying Benimaru. Tobisuke interrupts the training to tell them of an incident at school and the entire Wild Bey Gang rushes to witness Aiger's new training machine. Later, Ranjiro is the first blader to make it pass the preliminary round of the Luinor Cup and also set the high score on the measurement machine, although the high score was later beaten by Aiger, Koji Konda and finally Hae-jin Oh.

Relationships

Rantaro Kiyama

Rantaro is Ranjiro’s older brother. The reason Ranjiro became a Blader was because he was inspired by his brother. In addition to this, Rantaro gave his old Beyblade, Raging Roktavor, to Ranjiro. The two brothers appeared to be very close, as shown in a flashback in the third episode of Turbo and in multiple Superking episodes.

Aiger Akabane

Ranjiro initially head a grudge against Aiger for defeating the members of his team and set out to teach him a lesson. After tying 149 times in a battle, the two eventually came to respect one another. Since then, they have become great friends, with their friendship being similar to that of Valt and Rantaro's. In one instance, when Aiger's Z Achilles was briefly stolen by the Wild Bey Gang, Ranjiro scolded them for it before apologizing to Aiger and returning his bey to him. Later on, when Aiger started becoming obsessed with winning and developed a dark resonance, Ranjiro took notice of this and offered to accompany him on his journey to the mysterious place known as Dread Tower.

Tobisuke

Ranjiro and Tobisuke were good friends long before the Wild Bey Gang was formed. Tobisuke often followed Ranjiro everywhere and always praised his strength and Blading skills. If anyone ever insulted or made fun of Ranjiro, Tobisuke would immediately defend him. Their friendship was so strong, that he, along with Naru Akabane and Gumita stowed away on the Battleship Cruise, so they could support and cheer their respective Bladers on.
