Nowaguma is a member of the Russian squad Team Lovushka who wears an oversized bear-themed space suit and fights with Rock Orso. Shy outside battle but fierce in it, he stalls Gingka to buy teammate Aleksei time to steal data, later serves as Lovushka's advance guard, and is knowingly sacrificed by teammate Anton after losing. He resurfaces in Metal Fury to support Aleksei and Lera in the Sphere 360 group stage before all three are knocked out by Jigsaw.

Appearance and personality

What They Look Like, and How They Behave

Nowaguma's bluish-black hair hangs down far enough to cover his eyes. His tall frame is wrapped in an oversized suit built to resemble a space outfit, which together with his height gives him a bear-like silhouette, and the suit muffles his voice slightly.

Away from battle Nowaguma comes across as calm, even shy, but that reserve disappears once a match starts, when he turns fierce and leans on his bear-like presence to intimidate opponents, a trait that echoes his Beyblade, Rock Orso, being built around a bear motif.

Rock Orso soaks up hits well enough to stall Gingka, yet he never beats a named opponent and is treated as expendable by his own team.
