## Synopsis

First-year high schooler Junta Shiraishi is a mob character who goes unnoticed even when he stands right next to you. But his classmate, "heroine-level beauty" Kubo, always notices him and is there to tease him. Anyone can become special to someone, but it might be a little too early to call these feelings "love." Perhaps this story is still two steps from being a romantic comedy--let's call it a sweet comedy where a background character becomes visible!

* Halloween

**Tankman** is the 16th character featured in Another Unnecessary Tournament, originating from **Tankmen**.

## Bio

Cock that gun! Tankman wages war on the bracket! Aboard the trusty tank, Sgt. John Captain takes aim for victory. Being the familiar face associated with the Newgrounds website, Tankman embodies all that is flash cartoons and flash games by bringing in those tunes that bring you back to the old days on sites like Tyrone's Unblocked Games -- in the middle of your math class when you definitely didn't have work to do. He's also got a backlog of memorable Newgrounds creators' tunes -- though that certainly isn't all! His arsenal of war and military games also provides him with a cavalcade of tracks from things like war games and dogfighting. With all that aside, with a nasty hard-on and victory in his mind's eye; Ready, Aim, Fire!

* In the results of Tankman and Fred's battle, there is a typo. In the video, it says that Tankman got 108 votes when he actually got 106. The percentages, however, are not typos.
* The Tank's Halloween costume references The Destroyer from the Epic Battle Fantasy series.
* Tankman's Halloween costume mainly references Madness Combat series, with the coat being from Hank and street sign from Tricky.
	+ His pose references the Spooky Month dance.

Hyuga Hizashi

**Hyuga Hizashi**, known as **Hyuga Asahi** (朝日ヒュウガ, *Asahi Hyūga*) in Japan, is one of two main protagonists, along with his older brother, Hikaru, of the anime/manga series, *Beyblade Burst Surge*. He fights with his Beyblade Super Hyperion Xceed 1A until it was destroyed by Lain Valhalla. He later evolves it into Hyperion Flamebringer Cho Xceed'+X.

In *Beyblade Burst QuadStrike*, Hyuga returns with his new Quad Beyblade, Stellar Hyperion Diagron-Q Guard-Q+Xplosion-7'

## Appearance

Hyuga is a short boy with spiked-up crimson hair with two small bangs on each temple, fair skin, red eyes, and, like his brother, has an orange half-sun tattoo, albeit on his left cheek. His attire consists of a black sweatshirt with an orange sun symbol on the front, a crimson-red hoodie with a yellow interior, orange pockets and an orange sun on the back, a white belt with a grey buckle, dark-blue shorts with a white stripe on each leg, crimson-lake compression pants, white sneakers with orange mudguards, tips and cuffs, and a fingerless green-cuffed teal glove on his left hand.

When Hyuga resonates with his Beyblade, his hair briefly lights up to resemble red fire.

## Personality

Hyuga is known to be hasty and reckless, unlike his older brother, preferring to charge into battles head-on without a strategy and wanting to end the battle as quickly as possible. He is also quite lazy and has trouble waking up in the mornings, shown by how Hikaru often has to drag him out of bed and carry him on him back all while he is still half-asleep.

## Biography

Hyuga and his brother have been enjoying Beyblade for at least two years leading up to Beyblade Burst Surge. After Hyuga and Hikaru moved to the Hizashi Family Restaurant at the ages of 9 and 10 respectively, they walked into the Comets Gym, which was close to their home, for the first time to practice. There, they were greeted by Chuck, Guy, and Reina, who initially thought the brothers were breaking in. The three explained to Hyuga and his brother that the Comets use to be a popular team, but then the former coach quit, causing all the bladers on the team to quit as well. Motivated to help, Hyuga and Hikaru asked to join the club, vowing to bring the team back on its feet.

After joining the Comets, Hyuga and Hikaru got more serious about blading. They were shown to battle in district tournaments, attend exhibition matches featuring legendary bladers, and watch title matches.

Nagisa approaches and sits by Shiraishi in an agitated fashion. Inquiring as to why she's upset, Nagisa asks if he knows why, to which, he hasn't a clue. So, Shiraishi offers her some milk and Nagisa takes it as an offense. Nagisa hints to what she's angry about is from that morning and Shiraishi recalls everything he did that morning, however, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. After Shiraishi's recollection, Nagisa "punishes" Shiraishi by sitting on his lap. Because of this action, Shiraishi becomes lost in thought, so Nagisa snaps him out of his trance and finally gets off his lap. Nagisa then tells Shiraishi to next time properly greet someone back when they greet them and a perplexed Shiraishi agrees to do so. When Shiraishi, asks as to why Nagisa was upset that morning, she replies that it's a secret causing Shiraishi to hide. Nagisa finds Shiraishi, who claims that he's nothing but a pet or a toy to her. Teasing Shiraishi, she asks what he thinks and if he figures out the answer then it'd be less fun. Shiraishi retorts the response and gives him back his carton of milk.
