Tsuruhashi is a male character sporting orange hair and blue goggles that create a bug-eyed look. He wears a brown bodysuit featuring black sections on his arms and legs, accented by green stripes and a yellow neckline. His personality is marked by a fondness for rapping and self-identification as a skilled dancer, ending most sentences with "Yo." Removing his goggles reveals a more conventionally handsome face and shifts his speech to a normal tone.

He belongs to the Galaxy Triumvirate alongside Hashibuto and Watari, serving under guild leader Miroku. Their primary mission involves retrieving the space compass, with repeated failures leading to punishment from Miroku. Tsuruhashi and the Triumvirate previously worked as performers on planet ASAKUSA. In battle, he defeats Laila offscreen but suffers multiple losses to Rei. He later wins against Magical Star Saki but loses to Hashibuto after removing his goggles during their match.

A pivotal development during the Justice Cup reveals Tsuruhashi was once good-looking but adopted goggles to align with the Triumvirate's image. Against Hashibuto, he discards this persona by removing the goggles to seek victory, though he still loses; Hashibuto returns the goggles afterward. In the final conflict against Nakes, the Triumvirate initially flees but later rescues Miroku, Denebola, and Rukinosu out of guilt for their prior ineffectiveness. The epilogue shows them accompanying Miroku on an apology journey while searching for the Ultimate Battle Spirits Neo.

His deck is red-aligned, specializing in cards with Awaken and Ultra Awaken abilities. Key spirits include Bladra, Kakyuso, Nodeppo, Kagutsuchidragoon, Steam-Tricera, Slave-GaiAsura, and Cape Rocker, supported by the burst magic card Burst Draw. He appears on the promotional card The Strongest Galaxy Ultimate Zero.
