Doji (Beyblade: Metal Saga) (2024)

Doji is the main antagonist of the Beyblade: Metal Saga. He was the leader of the Dark Nebula Organization, a group that wanted to use the dark power of Beyblades to control the world, and later becomes a servant of Pluto and the Nemesis Bladers.

He was voiced by Takehito Koyasu in Japanese (who also voiced Nobuyuki Sugou in Sword Art Online, and Dio Brando in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure as well as Sartorius Kumar in Yugioh GX) and both Juan Chioran and Andrew Jackson in English.

Appearance[]

With brown hair (not counting the yellow streak) and red eyes, Doji's clothing depends on the season he is in. Originally, he dresses in a professional manner, having oval glasses, a purple suit, a red tie, and black shoes. Later on, however, his design changes. His hair becomes grey while one of his eyes, now scarred, is covered with his hair. Here, Doji also wears a gold monocle over his unscarred eye, a grey coat over a black shirt and a white cravat, and Doji needing the use of a cane.

Personality[]

Doji will do whatever it takes to rule the world, even if it means doing evil acts. He is very manipulative as well, shown when he convinces Bladers to join him. He also treats his minions poorly if they fail him.

Biography[]

Past[]

Power-hungry, Doji and Ryuga first head to Komma Village to claim it as their own. They are stopped by Ryo Hagane, who has a quick battle with Doji, with Doji losing and Ryuga winning for him. As they leave, Doji keeps an eye on Gingka.

Beyblade[]

After hearing that Gingka beat Kyoya Tategami, he found Kyoya to be a possible ally. He showed up at his warehouse and told his gang he can help him beat Gingka. Doji then takes the Face Hunters to an area shrouded by fog and tells them he can help Kyoya get revenge. Not trusting him, Kyoya plans to leave before being stopped and fought by Doji, in which Doji wins and Kyoya stays. Doji later meets up with Kyoya's friend Benkei Hanawa, and gives him Dark Bull, falsely saying that Kyoya is working for him and beating Ginkga is the only way to save Kyoya. Benkei, however, fails to beat Gingka, which Doji doesn't find surprising.

He is later seen observing Kyoya's progress in Beyblade battles, then sends him to Wolf Cannon to find the fangs of the heart needed to beat Ginka. He even uses his AI Merci to gather data on Gingka so he can be defeated by Ryuga, which he succeeds in gathering data for the Dark Nebula. After Kyoya's training is complete, he sends him to the city to challenge Gingka after he beat Benki and Kenta. However, this battle ends in Gingka's victory. Doji then arrives, congratulating Gingka and telling Kyoya that he didn't get much training. He then proceeds to attack Kyoya, causing Gingka to get mad. However, Doji sends a rolling bolder his way before escaping.

The next night, he looks at Gingka's data and thinks that Ryuga can beat him. He later sees Gingka, Benkei, and Kenta arrive to the fortress. He sends out helicopters with Beyblades to stop the heroes, and while they fail to fight them at first, Kyoya goes to their aid and manages to help defeat them.

Doji then sends out many traps to take out Gingka's group but they manage to get though them. Gingka then confronts Doji telling him that L-Drago must be returned. However, Doji plays a trick on Gingka and tries to get him to realize that if he joined Dark Nebula, he would get a lot more power in the end thus trying to manipulate him much like how Doji convinced Kyoya to join him. Gingka, recalling the death of his father at the hands of Ryuga and Dark Nebula, strictly refuses Doji's 'offer' and challenges him to a battle as revenge for his father. A battle sparks between the two, causing Ryuga to awaken from his coma. Doji proves to be a strong opponent even beating Starblast Attack and causes Darkness Howling Blazer to give pegasus damage. Doji loses due to Gingka's spirit rising, but this fails to faze him. Gingka and Doji run outside to encounter Ryuga's return. Gingka challenges the Re-Awakened Ryuga to a battle foolishly and Ryuga accepts. Doji then tells Kyoya Benkei, Kenta and Madoka how bey's are known to have a hidden power within them much to their shock. He oversees Ryuga and Gingka's battle, knowing that Storm Pegasus is really feeding power to L-Drago. Gingka's friends have trouble understanding what makes Ryuga's Beyblade so strong, so Doji explains that it is due to the fact that L-Drago is a left-spin blade. Gingka gets really angry and causes Ryuga's power to increase. Gingka loses, and Doji reveals that it was Gingka himself that helped L-Drago awaken, causing the boy to fall in shame. Ryuga then told Doji to get the plans ready for battle Bladers.

Doji then watches Ryuga beat a squad of Dark nebula bladers and looks pleased with his progress. He then asks Ryuga how strong he wants to be.
