## Biography

While hiding at Sento’s home at a Cafe, Banjo secretly calls his girlfriend, Kasumi, who needed surgery due to her poor health, only to discover that she’s in the middle of being experimented on by the same people who experimented on him. The one in command of the experiments, Night Rouge, tells Banjo that he’ll bring Kasumi to him. When Banjo arrive outside at her apartment, he witnesses it suddenly blowing up, much to his shock. Just then, the one responsible for the explosion reveals itself, a Smash called the Burn Smash. Banjo hears Night Rogue’s voice out of nowhere and reveals that Burn Smash is Kasumi, who was transformed into a Smash by the very same experiment he was apart of. Burn Smash starts attacking Banjo and tries to kill him with one of her fire balls. Fortunately, Sento arrives on his Machine Builder and gets Burn Smash’s attention away from Banjo. After knocking Burn Smash down, Sento places his Build Driver on his waist to fight the Smash. However, after Banjo tells Sento that Burn Smash is Kasumi, Night Rouge reveals himself. Sento transforms into Kamen Rider Build HarinezumiTank Form and briefly fights Night Rouge but then saves Banjo from another one of Burn Smash’s Fire Balls. Build assures Banjo that Kasumi will be back to normal once he extracts the Smash essence from her body, but Night Rogue reveals that she’ll die instead, explaining that due to her poor health condition after being gassed in the experiment, her body will break down once the Smash essence is removed, calling it Hazard Level 1. With no way to save her, Build has no choice but fight her, but Banjo refuses to let him do so. However, just as Burn Smash is about to unleash a Fire Ball, she suddenly starts redirecting her flamethrower to herself. Build realizes that while Smash lose their human identities, Kasumi is purposefully hurting herself so she wouldn’t hurt Banjo. With Kasumi trying to hurt herself and with no other way to save her from dying, Banjo decides to let Build extract the Smash essence from her body to at least turn her back to normal. Needing to weaken her Smash form, Build changes into his RabbitSoujiki Form and uses the vacuum to suck up the flames as well as her Fire Balls and creates a flaming vortex above him. He then switches to his Gorilla Fullbottle, created from the purified essence of the Strong Smash, and Diamond Fullbottle to change into his GorillaMond Form and turns the flaming vortex into a tornado of diamonds. Using his Vortex Finish move, Build punches the diamond tornado at Burn Smash, lifting her up into the air and separating from Kasumi’s body. Build keeps Burn Smash up in the air to let Banjo saying good-bye to Kasumi until her body breaks down and dies. Build then throws the lifeless Burn Smash body to the ground and uses an empty Fullbottle to extract the essence, leaving behind nothing in it’s place. After purifying the Burn Smash essence into the Dragon Fullbottle, Sento gives it to Banjo to remember Kasumi by.

## Trivia

* While Burn Smash bares no real resemblance to her motif, dragon, her design was made to hide the motif without directly inserting it in. This was done in order to bring out the unexpectedness of the Dragon Fullbottle that was created from her purified essence.
* The Burn Smash’s lower body half is reused from the lower body half of the Strong Smash.
