Kinomiya, Hitoshi

木ノ宮仁

Hiro is rumored to be the fourth strongest blader in the series, trailing Kai, Tyson, and possibly Brooklyn. Hiro first appeared as his alter ego, Jin of the Gale, while Ray was in the woods. He battled Ray and defeated him with ease. When Tyson and Daichi were at the tournament, he reappeared, telling Tyson that he needed to rebuild his team because if he didn't, the Bladebreakers would be gone forever. After Tyson won his match against Kotaro, Hiro told Tyson that 'Beyblading isn't about winning. It's about how you play the game.' When Kai and Daichi started their fight, Hiro watched Kai, waiting to see what he was about to do. After the veteran easily took down Daichi by releasing Dranzer, Mr. Dickenson announced that Hiro was the new coach for the team BBA Revolution. When Tyson and Hiro reunited, Kai turned away. During Daichi and Kai's rematch, Kai's new Dranzer Gigs hit Daichi's Strata Dragoon Great in the air. As a result, Dranzer soared toward Hiro, surprising both Hilary and Kenny. The blue Beyblade collided with the wall very close to Hiro's face. When Dranzer returned to Kai's hand, he glared at Hiro, showing his anger for not being able to fight Tyson. When Kai battled Brooklyn, Hiro insulted Kai's skills as a Beyblader, telling him that he wouldn't be able to match up to Brooklyn's talent. Later, Tyson was shocked to find out that his brother had joined the BEGA league. Later, after the world was saved from Brooklyn's destruction, Hiro came back to Tyson's side. Hiro's Beyblade that was seen in the anime is Metal Driger.
