Metal Fight Beyblade/Characters

Ginga/Gingka Hagane

 * Big Brother Mentor: To Kenta.
 * Big Eater
 * Blow You Away: Later in Fusion his Beyblade gains the ability to wield this element.
 * Death From Above: His special technique.
 * Which would be Awesome but Impractical if this wasn't a cartoon. It is, theoretically, incredibly easy to dodge such an attack, unless your beyblade is stuck, which was what happened to Hyoma.
 * Actually, it isn't. The opponent has no idea which direction Pegasis is coming from, hence, the opponent has no idea where to go to dodge the attack.
 * The Drifter: Though he decides to stay with Kenta & Madoka.
 * Fingerless Gloves
 * Free-Range Children: Sure, it's a kid's show, but social services should have caught Gingka within the first day of his cross-country trek.
 * Good Is Not Dumb: He's a good deal smarter than most shonen heroes, including Tyson.
 * He seems to dumb up in Masters.
 * Hachimaki
 * The Hero
 * Pegasus
 * Launcher of a Thousand Ships: Often to Memetic Sex God levels. He's been shipped with Madoka, Hikaru, Masamune, Kyoya, Ryuuga,Kenta,Hyoma...and the list just keeps on going.

 * Pointless Band-Aid
 * Redheaded Hero: DOY!
 * Scarf of Asskicking
 * Super Prototype: His second beyblade, Galaxy Pegasus is the prototype version of Storm Pegasus. Despite this, it is extremely powerful, but originally uncontrollable, thus why the weaker Storm Pegasus is the final version. It chose Gingka to wield it, though, so he's able to control it.
 * To Be a Master: Not as much as Hikaru or Masamune, however.
 * Trademark Favourite Food: Hamburgers.
 * Wimpification The yaoi fangirls  just love doing this to him.

Madoka Amano

 * Blue Eyes

 * Goggles Do Something Unusual
 * The Medic: Well, as close as you can get in the series; she's basically a toy handyman, but that is of course very important to the world of Beyblading.
 * Ms. Exposition
 * Name's the Same: Sure, she's The Chick, but nowhere to the level of another Madoka you might be thinking about.
 * Power Strain Blackout: She's prone to doing this when she actually uses her Beyblade. How that's possible is never really answered.

 * To Be a Master: How many times has he exclaimed that he's going to beat Ginga/ whatever opponent he has, or that he/Gan Gan is/are number one? Exactly.
 * Unicorn: His bey.
 * Unknown Rival: To Ginga at first, as Ginga really has no idea who he is and his presently uncontrollable Super Prototype has him preoccupided at the moment.
