Ryo Hagane

Ryo Hagane, is a blader. As his alter-ego Phoenix, he fights with his Beyblade Burn Fireblaze. He is the father of Gingka Hagane. He was the original user of Storm Pegasus before he passed it on to Gingka. Ryo now works as the Director of WBBA in Japan with Hikaru Hasama as his assistant. Ryo has a cheerful and laid back attitude. He often acts casually purposefully- an example being when he tells his assistant Hikaru Hasama to call him "immortal phoenix". He loves imitating heroes and like his son he also has an unusual love for bey blade. Though he is an adult, Ryo often acts like a teen-aged boy. At times, he comes across as even more childish than his son. It seems as thought his love and passion for Beyblade is more important to him than most domestic or "adult" matters.
