Biography
Akuya Onizaki is a minor antagonist in Beyblade: Shogun Steel, an eccentric, tattooed gang leader who challenges rising star Zyro Kurogane to intimidate him with the help of teammates swarming the stadium. Despite his menacing laugh and taunts, his Archer Gargoyle SA165WSF is ultimately overwhelmed by Zyro's Samurai Ifrit and its special move Burning Upper. He later tries to recruit rival blader Yoshio Iwayama by force, but is easily defeated again along with his gang, cementing his reputation as a blader who has never won a fair, one-on-one fight.
