Oliver Bohringer is the French champion and the gentlest of the Majestics, a painter and a top-rank chef who blades as gracefully as he cooks and is not remotely modest about any of it. His unicorn Unicolyon is elegant and defensive, turning an opponent's aggression back on them, and his Earth Shake holds both Tyson and Ray to draws. He meets the Bladebreakers in Paris while the Dark Bladers are hunting them, and opens the Olympia showdown against Ray. He dislikes needless cruelty, which makes him the Majestic most sympathetic to Tyson's team and the first to argue that Europe should help before Moscow — though their first meeting, in Italy, had him condescending to the same people.

Appearance and personality

What They Look Like, and How They Behave

Bright green hair and lilac eyes, under a blue hat cut something like a pilot's, with red goggles and a white scarf. The first season puts him in a long blue coat with yellow trim and a brown belt over a red shirt; G-Revolution keeps the hat and swaps to a blue and white jacket, a yellow and orange top, a double-buckled belt and red fingerless gloves.

The calmest of the Majestics and the easiest company, and by some distance the most accomplished — a serious painter and a highly rated chef, neither of which he is shy about. He makes friends quickly enough to call Tyson and Kenny his new best friends after one conversation in the Louvre. He is not consistent about it: meeting the same group in Italy, he is condescending and rude.

Story by season

Where the seasons take them

Beyblade (2001)

Majestics

Oliver first crosses paths with Tyson's team on the sidelines of the Eiffel Tower fight against the Dark Bladers, offering a warning about controlling their bit-beasts before walking off. He later corners Tyson himself, first over a locked-up Louvre gallery and then across the dish, and their battle ends level. He points Tyson toward Enrique in Italy, then joins Enrique in escorting the Bladebreakers to Robert's castle, where the Majestics challenge them as a group; Oliver's own match against Ray also ends in a draw. Along the way he beats the Dark Blader Zomb, and by Olympia he is firmly behind Tyson's team reaching the final.
