Who is Masamune Kadoya?
Masamune/James is the new bottom of Ginga, who will eventually join his side like Kyoya did. He is a small kid, but he has a lot of guts. He follows Ginga wherever he goes to challenge him continually, losing almost everytime. Ginga and him often get into arguments over ridiculous things like the other's courage, or lack of courage. They will eventually pair up, with Yuu and Tsubasa, to represent Japan in the Big Bang Bladers tournament. Masamune/James had previously not been able to participate in Battle Bladers.
