A bespectacled strategist who made his debut in episode 5, this character showed up to scout the one-day tournament rather than compete himself. His real goal was to gather intel on Zero's beyblader skills so he could devise the perfect counter-strategy for their next encounter—all for his younger brother Eight's sake. He's a competitive blader in his own right, though strategy is clearly his stronger suit.
His motto centers on "Perfects," and he lives by meticulous planning. The catch? When things deviate even slightly from his carefully laid plans, he completely loses his cool. He'll abandon strategy altogether and attack recklessly, which inevitably leads to his defeat. It's his biggest weakness, and fans often point out how his perfectionist mentality ironically causes him to fail.
One running gag that defines him is his seemingly endless supply of spare glasses. He tosses aside his current pair without hesitation whenever they get damaged, knowing he's always got another set tucked away in his pocket. It's played for laughs but also emphasizes how calculated and prepared he tries to be about everything—even his eyewear.
