Movie
Description
Masamune Kadoya is a prominent beyblader from Japan who honed his skills training in America. He has black hair featuring a distinctive red strand, brown eyes, and light skin. His typical outfit consists of a green sweatshirt with sky-blue and dark blue trim, an orange shirt underneath, khaki shorts displaying navy blue lightning-shaped designs along the seams, brown fingerless gloves, and green shoes worn with white socks.
His personality blends bravery, impulsiveness, persistence, arrogance, and pride. Masamune frequently declares himself the "#1 blader in the world," a self-assessment often at odds with his battle results. His talkative nature and lack of self-restraint frequently spark conflicts, leading others like Tsubasa Otori to note his "no manners." Despite these flaws, he shows unwavering determination, particularly in his quest to surpass Gingka Hagane. Early interactions highlight his overconfidence, tempered somewhat after a significant defeat by Nile forces him to reassess his ego, though he retains his core belief in his own superiority even while acknowledging others' growth.
Born in Japan, Masamune developed a passion for beyblade before moving to America. There, he formed Team Dungeon with friends Toby and Zeo Abyss at the Dungeon Gym, winning a regional tournament against a bully named Vince. When Toby fell seriously ill and could no longer blade, Masamune vowed to become the world's top blader to fund Toby's recovery. Learning of Gingka's Battle Bladers victory drew him back to Japan to challenge Gingka directly.
Initial confrontations with Gingka resulted in repeated losses, but Masamune's persistence drove him to adapt his strategy. He eventually secured a victory by exploiting Gingka's temporary inability to control Galaxy Pegasus, solidifying his resolve to stay in Japan and join the World Championship qualifiers. During selection matches, he defeated Kenta Yumiya and secured his spot on Team GanGan Galaxy by overcoming Yu Tendo using his newly developed special move, Lightning Sword Flash.
As part of Team GanGan Galaxy, he traveled to China to face Team Wang Hu Zhong. His rivalry with Chao Xin intensified after an initial defeat on the Great Wall, leading to intense forest training under an elder's guidance. This culminated in a World Championships rematch where Masamune emerged victorious, attributing his win to serious spirit over superficial skill.
In the film *Metal Fight Beyblade vs the Sun: Sol Blaze, the Scorching Hot Invader*, Masamune participates in a beach tournament, defeating Benkei. When the mysterious blader Helios appears, defeats Gingka, and destroys Galaxy Pegasus, Masamune reacts impulsively, attempting to challenge Helios but being easily overwhelmed. Later, emotionally distraught, he encounters Helios again alongside Ryutaro and Tetsuya. After another defeat and witnessing Ryutaro's injury, Masamune returns to the group with crucial information: only the "water symbol" can counter Sol Blaze. He joins the final confrontation against Helios's grandfather Bakin, participating in a group battle where his Beyblade is nearly destroyed by Helios's Blaze Execution special move before Gingka intervenes.
Throughout his journey, Masamune wielded Ray Striker D125CS, later evolving to Blitz Striker 100RSF, both Attack-type Beyblades emphasizing speed and precision. His signature move, Lightning Sword Flash, embodies his focus on concentrated striking power. Following the World Championships, he returned to America and rejoined Team Dungeon, continuing to reside at the Dungeon Gym with Toby, Zeo, and later King.
