Yu Tendo (天童遊, Tendo Yu)

is a recurring character that appears in the Metal Saga. Yu is a former member of Dark Nebula, who seperated from them after they turned on him and tried to destroy his Libra. Soon after that, he made friends with Gingka Hagane, and became a sub-member of the Japanese Representative Team, Team GanGan Galaxy during the World Beyblade Championships. The Team took 1st Place and became the Best Beybladers in the World. During the Championships, Yu's tag-partner was Tsubasa Otori. Yu's Beyblade is Flame Libra T125ES.


Nice job Kenchi, but defeating me is hopeless! HOPELESS!

—Yu Tendo to Kenta Yumiya during their battle


Appearance

Yu has yellow hair, green eyes, withe skin and wears a white jacket and a white pants. Yu also seems to be at least slightly rich, due to his outfit and other aspects. He is just slightly taller than Kenta, because of his hair. When Yu first appeared his voice sounded deeper, but like everyone else, his voice changed.


Personality

Yu has a generally happy-go-lucky personality and has a real love for beyblading. Though he's very young and general good natured, he is a strong blader and astute observer as well as having strong convictions. He has a tendency to idolize strong bladers who beat him and hates to be marginalized like being called a little boy, which Tsubasa calls him for fun, just to get him mad.


Due to his age, he also tends to whine a lot too. As a normal child, he loves ice cream, pizza and various other items throughout the show. He also enjoys giving nicknames to most people. He calls Kyoya-"Yo-Yo" ("TateKyo" in the manga) Benkei-"Benben", Kenta-"Kenchi", Gingka-"Gingi" or "Gingky", Hikaru-"Hippity-hop", and Masamune "Mr. Butt in skii", then "Masamoo-moo".


Yu's role in Metal Fusion/Metal Masters

He became a member of Dark Nebula after being defeated for the first time by Ryuga. Since that battle, he works closely with Doji to help Ryuga increase his strength including winning the Survival Battle Tournament to force the WBBA to legitimize Battle Bladers with Dark Nebula controling the event. He ends up being partnered up with Tsubasa Otori who also joins the Dark Nebula but is very suspicious of Tsubasa's intentions. Eventually, he discovers that he is merely a pawn of the Dark Nebula and must face Reiji who badly damages Libra. He is able to escape and seeks help from Gingka and his friends. Later, he is recaptured by Doji who intends of feeding Yu's power to L-Drago but is rescued before that could happen.


After Battle Bladers, Yu competes for a spot on the Japanese team, Gan Gan Galaxy. He ultimately makes the team as a substitute and is not happy about it. It causes friction between he and Masamune at times. During the Big Bang Tournament, Yu was able to battle in four matches. His first was with Team Lovushka's Leader, Aleksei second battle in a tag team match with Tsubasa against Team Wild Fang members, Demure and Benkei; third battle in a tag team match with Tsubasa against Team Excalibur members, Sophie and Wales; and in a last man standing battle against Team Garcias.


Though Yu would rather be a regular member of the team and not happy about being a substitute throughout the tournament, he refuses to replace Tsubasa when Tsubasa is cut from the team and quits until Ryo reinstates Tsubasa. He also helps Tsubasa overcome L-Drago's influence during their match with Team Excalibur.


Yu wanders off into the streets of Brazil and is ambushed by Team Gracie prior to their match with them. He suffers minor injuries but his bey Libra is severely damaged. It becomes badly damaged again when he is baited by Team Gracie into participating in team tag battle. Later, he and Tsubasa are severely injured and comatose and their beys severely damaged when they encounter Damian Hart from Team Starbreakers while racing their beys on a track in New York City. Yu recovers and helps save Gingka as they try to get to Hades City. While trying to find the Spiral Force core, he gets trapped in Jack's Arrange bed and ultimately frees himself and destroys the bed in the process.


Biography

Yu makes his first appearance as the mysterious figure whom Doji takes Ryuga to see in Episode 20 working for the Dark Nebula. Later, during the Survival Battle Tournament, an anouncement is made about a single blader defeating ten bladers at once. As those defeated beys get washed away by the tide, Yu is running off to his next battle though he is still not fully revealed. Later, while hidden behind a tree, he sees an injured Kenta and Benkei are washed up shore.


In Episode 21, he finally appears in full view and helps Kenta to a WBBA station. After Kenta's injuries are tended to, Yu formally introduces himself and his bey. Everyone appears to get along. Finally, Hikaru challenges the three of them to battle and Yu defeats them quickly with his special move, Sonic Wave. He then faces Gingka and Kyoya for the final round and defeats them, by almost destroying Leone and resisting a Starblast Attack, and wins the Survival Battle to have his wish granted. He wishes for the WBBA to hold the Battle Bladers tournament to determine the best blader in the country in order to battle Ryuga. It is then, that it is revealed that he is a member of the Dark Nebula. Later, Yu admits to Doji that his battle with Ryuga was his first loss and that loss made him Ryuga's biggest fan so he would do anything to help Ryuga. Doji gladly accepts his help. They continue to keep their eye out of new talent. Later they are watching a touranment when a blader, Tsubasa catches their attention. Doji is excited but Yu is shrewd enough to be initially wary of Tsubasa, noting that Tsubasa intentionally called out the Dark Nebula. Later, he battles Tsubasa at Dark Nebula headquarters during Tsubasa's test battle. He gets seriously agitated when Tsubasa calls him, "Little boy" and he reacts by using Libra's full power. However, their battle ends in a draw though Tsubasa assures Yu that he hasn't used his full power. After the shock of the battle wears off, he responds in kind to Tsubasa as well.


Despite their antagonistic relationship, Yu is continually being partnered up with Tsubasa by Doji. On their next assignment, Yu battles Hyoma to gauge the progress of Hyoma's strength. He defeats Hyoma in the River Battle. He goes on another scouting mission to find new talent but comes back empty-handed. However, he has been shadowed by Tetsuya who scuttles all the way back to Dark Nebula Headquarters without Yu realizing it. They take on Tetsuya and give him a newly modified bey. Doji confides in Yu that the data from the newly modified bey will provide to be useful. He also tries to tell him about why he hates cacti, but Yu is completely uninterested and drops his ice cream, even as as Doji loses his cool and yells at a cactus plant in his office.


In Episode 30, Yu and Tsubasa are sent to a challenge match by Doji to enter and scout out new talent. They arrive by helicopter and Yu is completely excited about battling but is highly doubtful about finding any new talent. On their way to their matches, Yu is nearly run over by Benkei. He meets Gingka along with Kenta, Hyoma and Madoka. Yu reveals that Tsubasa joined the Dark Nebula but still hasn't accepted him. Later, Yu is disappointed that he is battling an weak unknown blader whom he defeats really quickly. He does cheer on Kenta after Kenta wins his match but notices that Tsubasa is observing him from a distance. Finally, the last match is a battle royal. He and Tsubasa fight over battling Gingka and are nearly knocked out by Kyoya in the process. Finally, they agree to take out the weaker opponents and Yu goes after Kenta and nearly takes him out until Kyoya intervenes. However, he realizes that Tsubasa has moved in to battle Gingka and leaves his present battle to cut in on Tsubasa. They end up battling each other but are defeated by Gingka's special move.

Trivia

Yu has had Flame Libra re-built, fixed, etc. many times, due to various Bladers who destroyed Libra. (Damian Hart, Reiji Mizuchi, Team Garcias)

Tendo means "Deva Path" refering to Nagato's Deva Path in Naruto.

He was the second person to defeat Gingka Hagane.

Yu has a strong resemblence to Max from Beyblade 2000 (And they have the same voice-actress)

Flame Libra's beast was never seen (and will never be seen)

Since Yu was on team Gan Gan Galaxy, Yu is now the fourth best blader in the world.

Though he enjoys giving others nicknames, he doesn't enjoy being called names himself. Such as when Tsubasa called him little boy in episode 26, he threw a tantrum.

When he launches his bey, it often throws him off his feet, causing him to fly backwards through the air.

Yu only appears to have two close friends who he doesn't give nicknames at any time to: Madoka and Tsubasa.

Although they appear to hate each other in Metal Fusion, Yu gets along well with Tsubasa in Metal Masters, agreeing to be in tag battles with each other and sticking up for and supporting each other.
