## Biography

#### Background

Rya, ever since her older sister Ryuu ran away, was even more overly protected. She after seeing Ryuu on TV, decided she wanted to start blading as well. After two weeks of convincing her parents, she finally started her blading career. Because she didn't know how to blade, she asked Celestia Hirano to mentor her, in which the latter reluctantly agreed to do. She transferred Beigoma Academy after she moved to Japan.

### *Beyblade Burst God*

She participates in the European League, and although she didn't battle herself in the team battles, cheered BC Sol on until the end and help her teammates train.

### *Beyblade Burst Chouzetsu*

Rya comes back to Beigoma to visit, and reunites with the BeyClub. She was still a welcome face there, and continued being an assistant/trainer to them. She returned to Spain after a while due to an urgent call from Kris, saying Ryuu went missing.

When Ryuu became corrupted, she met with Amira, Sylvia, and Celestia. The three decided Rya would be their best chance to bring Ryuu back, and so the former challenged the latter. Rya got Ryuu to hesitate, but still got her bey broken because of the huge strength difference. Shortly before Celestia's match with Ryuu, she tells her about the latter's weakness. This leads to Celestia being able to win and break Ryuu free from corruption.

Soon after Ryuu's bey gets repaired, she heads back to Japan with Celestia and Ryuu to meet a newbie blader, although it is shown the Akatsuki sisters come back to Spain not that long after.

### *Beyblade Burst Sparking*

She travels around the world in search for new challenges. She also often comes back home, for she, though she is extremely young, has a part time job in the company her parents own. She also becomes a mentor and trainer to many new bladers.

Rya later participates in the Legend Festival, meeting and battling many new people.

## Relationships

### Ryuu Akatsuki

Rya's older sister. She was always better at everything than her, which is why Ryuu ran away. Ryuu stayed pretty cold to her after they reunite in Chouzetsu, but it is shown she forgave Rya. She was the main influence to Ryuu that caused her to change her attitude. Though Ryuu doesn't want to admit it, Rya was the main reason she continued blading as well. When Rya entered the Longinus Cup, Ryuu finally started to recognize Rya's skills. Though she tried her best, she lost to Ryuu in the tournament.

Rya after hearing about Ryuu's corrupted, tried to save her by defeating her, but instead only got her bey broken. In Sparking Rya and Ryuu team up in the second round of the Legend Festival, showing surprisingly great teamwork and winning the match. Rya calls Ryuu Un-nee or Onee-san in the Japanese dub. Ryuu is Rya's role model and idol, and Rya continues to work to one day defeat her elder sister.

### Kotone Himeinu

Rya's childhood friend. Kotone often came to the Akatsuki residence when they were young. Rya calls her Mei-senpai or even Koto-nee, as said girl is shown to consider Kotone a sister. The Akatsuki sisters often visit Kotone's families café, where Rya always offers to help out. She always messed up the kitchen, even blowing it up once. Later, after many conversations with Ryuu, Rya promised to only help out as a waitress.

### Valt Aoi

Rya and Valt got along immediately after they met. They playfully tease each other often, but all jokes aside, Rya is shown to deeply admire Valt. Valt is shown cheering her on in the Longinus Cup.

### Aiga Akaba

She met him on the Battleship Cruise, and because Ryuu was already close to him, quickly warmed up to him and became rivals. She is shown to have a stable friendship with him, even calling him Aa-chan, until he takes the champion spot from her sister.

### Naru Akaba

Rya treats her like a little sister. Naru doesn't understand how Rya likes ghosts, as shown when Rya wanted to see a ghost on the Ghost Ship. Other than that, they get along quite well. Naru supports Rya, and often mentions that she wants to be like her when she gets a bey, which Rya gets very flattered and embarrassed about.

### Fubuki Sumie

Introduced to her by Kotone. She respects Fubuki as the former captain of the BeyClub.

### Suoh Goshuin

Rya met Suoh in Beigoma, as they were both members of the Bey club. She disliked him at first, and thought he was stuck up and mean. Rya thinks it's weird how Suoh always relates everything to flowers, but also kind of likes it. Suoh often teaches Rya about ikebana, which the latter replies to by offering Suoh how to play video games, although the male has declined several times. Rya respects Suoh as a fellow blader, and had a one sided rivalry with him on her side. There are times Suoh thinks Rya is annoying, but they are on friendly terms. Even after Rya left to BC Sol, they kept in touch.

Rya called him Goshuin-san due to her mature side, though when they got closer, she started calling him Suoh-kun. She was first scared of Suoh's "serious side" though later got used to it.
