Biography

Genjuro Kamegaki is a DNA operative in Beyblade: Shogun Steel who oversees the Neo Battle Bladers tournament with his defensive Beyblade, Bandit Genbu F230TB. He challenges rising blader Ren Kurenai, patiently dodging her Thief Phoenix's attacks before unleashing Genbu's Black Tortoise beast and his special move to knock her out. He reports match results straight to DNA's leadership, later loses to Sakyo Kurayami in the run for the Final Eight, and is beaten again by Kira Hayama's Berserker Behemoth during a DNA training session.

Appearance

What They Look Like

Genjuro wears his long, spiky blond hair swept up like a crown around his forehead and temples. Sharp teeth similar to Captain Arrow's, slanted eyelids, blond eyebrows and a pointed nose give him an eccentric, faintly menacing look, and he is often seen chewing on a golden dandelion. His outfit is a blue robe marked with a large white star, worn over a smaller green undershirt-robe, and he wears his trademark dark-green gloves with two fingers covered and the other three left bare.

Patient, dodge-heavy defence and a sudden shell smash beat Ren once, but Sakyo and Kira both went straight through him.
