Description
Yukimura Rekka is the main protagonist of the Battle Spirits series, fueled by a passionate enthusiasm for the card battle game. He actively travels seeking challenging opponents, driven by a strong sense of justice. This compels him to confront Nagayori Akai to reclaim Sasuke Akatsuki's stolen deck after witnessing the theft.
His appearance features spiked hair, described in sources with colors ranging from orange to red with orange front sections or multi-colored combinations. He consistently wears a bright blue shirt with yellow trim, blue shorts, and a red and white open jacket featuring black detailing. Accessories include fingerless gloves, a black and white headband, and distinctive footwear.
Yukimura employs aggressive battle tactics centered around the Clash mechanic. He wields a red-aligned deck containing multiple dragon-type spirits and support cards. Key spirits include SengokuDragon Souldragon, The MasterSwordsmanDragon Samurai-Dragon-Amatsu, Sengoku-Gurendragon, Jinraidragon, and The SwordsWarDragon Muramasa-Dragon. His deck also utilizes critical burst cards like The FlameDragonKatana Onimaru and magic cards such as General Transmigration, Douburyuu Draw, and Soul Draw.
His journey begins with the goal of ruling the Battle Spirits world to gain the attention of his missing mentor figure, Nobu, whom he regarded as an older brother. Kanna Kuroda provides support during his travels. Significant rivalries develop with powerful battlers Toshiie Homura, Souun Gunjou, and Kanetsugu Houryokun. After an initial victory over Toshiie, Yukimura later trains intensely to overcome the power gap between their key spirits, securing a subsequent win using a newly acquired burst card.
He experiences significant losses, notably against Kanetsugu during the Musashi regional finals, an event that profoundly impacts him. He recovers with Toshiie's assistance. Kanna later gifts him The SwordsWarDragon Muramasa-Dragon, prompting him to seek its compatible soul burst, The FlameDragonKatana Onimaru. He obtains this card after winning a high-stakes duel against Katsuie with Muramasa-Dragon itself on the line.
Yukimura participates in the national tournament organized by the Institution for Battle Spirits Administration (IBSA). He achieves a 100-match winning streak in a preliminary Gunslinger event, earning him The MasterSwordsmanDragon Samurai-Dragon-Amatsu card. During the tournament, he confronts corruption involving antagonists Ranmaru Shikigami, Toukichirou Mashira, and their manipulator Dairokuten Maou. After an initial defeat against Dairokuten Maou's Six Heaven's Rush effect, Yukimura undertakes solitary training before returning with renewed determination.
Further development occurs when Nobu reappears, revealing he helped create Japan's battling systems after studying overseas. Nobu directs Yukimura to consult a Battle Spirits hermit for countermeasures against Ultimate spirits' Soul Drive abilities. Following a duel where Yukimura demonstrates his Consecutive Blade technique, the hermit rewards him with The SengokuDragonEmperor Burning-Souldragon, strengthening his deck against elite opponents. This enables victories against formidable foes Shingen Shidou and Kenshin Shirogane during the tournament's quarterfinals and semifinals.
His signature battle cries include activation calls like "Howl! Cry! Dragon Of Flames! Become a blade that cuts away all! Soul Burst Activate!" and summoning chants such as "Burn up! Oh, Ferocious dragon! With your hot soul... Become a flame that pierces the heavens! I summon... The MasterSwordsmanDragon Samurai-Dragon-Amatsu!" He also frequently uses the pre-finisher battle cry "Burn! My Soul!".
