[edit] The Big Cheese

Little is known about this mouse except that he appears in segments with the B'DaMage and the Meowmigos.

[edit] Shadow Alliance

The Shadow Alliance (called simply "Shadow" in Japan) are the main bad guys of Season One with goals of B-DaWorld Domination. Some members of the Shadow Alliance have a 3rd eye which is the symbol of the Shadow Alliance and is a sign that the character is under Marda B.'s control. There are two incarnations of the group. There was the original and the Neo Shadow Alliance. The members of this group are:

[edit] Marda B.

Marda B. is the main villain of the 1st season who established the Shadow Alliance and Neo Shadow Alliance. Marda B. was a mysterious being who was the greatest B-daplayer. He was the first B-DaMaster. Thanks to his combetive spirit he was split into two halves - good and evil. It is noted that his evil half could only be defeated by his good side: B-Energy. When Yamato had defeated Ababa (thus freeing him from Marda B.'s control), he started the Neo Shadow Alliance where all of the members he sent to attack Yamato and Co. were innocent B-DaPlayers under his control (with the exception of Enjyu, Biarce, Cain and Joshua who joined on their own free will). Marda B.'s evil form seems to be one giant flaming eye (which is very similar in appearance to the eye of Sauron from Lord of the Rings) that always seemed to be floating in the sky. In the last episode of the series Marda B. fuses with Biarce to form, Mardabiarce, and reveals his plot: He made the shadow alliance, the Neo shadow, destroyed Cobalt Blade and even created Biarce, just so he could have the ultimate B dabattle with Yamato. At the end of the episode, his full good form is revealed - a seemingly huge gray cat wearing in a white topki

[edit] Ababa

An evil cat who worked for Marda B. Ababa was the leader of the Shadow Alliance, which consisted of major characters like Gray, Enjyu, Wen, and Li. When depowered by Marda B, he is turned back into his original form, a purple cat with long hair. He makes a small cameo with the rest of the crowd, after Yamato and his friends return from defeating the Neo Shadow Alliance.

[edit] Enjyu

  • (炎呪 Enju)

Enjyu used to be a talented kid who wished to improve his skills more as a B-Daman player. His father however wanted him to take a dive on each of his battles so his dad could pay for their rent. Before each battle, Enjyu's opponents would pay him to lose the match, making them look skilled and Enjyu an amateur. Fed up of his life, Enjyu joined the Junior B-Daman Tournament. There he was disqualified after unfairly being accused of cheating due to his refusal to repeat his past life. After being betrayed by his only "friend", Enjyu took out his anger on his father in a B-DaBattle. As soon as the battle commenced, Enjyu's personality and hair changed from blue to red. Why his hair changed color is uncertain. After the battle (which had no proof of a victor), Enjyu joined the Shadow Alliance where he later received Lightning Kahn, the brother of Cobalt Blade, as his new B-Daman. Later in the series, Lightning Kahn was upgraded to Blazing Kahn by Marda B. and later in season 2 is upgraded once more into Variable Kahn, in order to defeat Yamato in the finals. However, instead of defeating him, Enjyu saved Yamato's life and quickly be-friended him. He later rejoined the Neo Shadow Alliance so that he could have fought Marda B. to avenge his new "friends". At the end of season one, Marda B brainwashes Enjyu, and Terry used his part of the B energy to set him free, but Enjyu wasn't happy about that. He was angry because he felt as if Terry wasted his B-Energy, which he could use to save the world, to save him. Although, Terry reasoned that he was his friend and he figured out, with the help of Joe, that it was the morally correct choice. The name is romanized as Enjyu in the English versions and Enju in the Japanese websites.[1]

[edit] Wen Yong Fa

  • (ウェン・ユンファ Wen Yonfa)

The older of the Yong Fa brothers. He joined the Shadow Alliance at a young age to become a stronger B-DaPlayer. Wen is often blunt and stubborn but also openhearted and loyal to those he cares about. He uses the B-Daman Bakuso which was later upgraded to King Bakuso by Bull, then to Suiseiryu by Bears and Bull. He changed his ways and left the Shadow Alliance after Yamato helped him in a battle against Enjyu. After Wen left, he continued to help Yamato and Co. often under Armada's direction. He sometimes wore a mask and cape. When his younger brother, Li Yong Fa, joined the Neo Shadow Alliance, he traveled with Yamato and his friends in order to help them defeat Marda B. and rescue his brother from Marda B.'s control. He eventually fought Li and brought him back to normal. The brothers have not separated since. His strike shot is the Metal Spike Shot.


[edit] Lee Yong Fa

  • (リー・ユンファ Rii Yonfa)

The younger brother of Wen he uses seal papers as his calling card. He uses the B-Daman Rekuso which was later upgraded to King Rekuso, then to Ryuseiryu by Bull and Bears. He and his older brother have been helping Yamato after they left the Shadow Alliance. Later in the series, Enjyu begged Li to help him defeat Marda B. Like Enjyu, Li pretended to work for the Neo Shadow Alliance in order to find Marda B.'s weakness. But certain members did not trust Li's loyalties towards the Neo Shadow Alliance so Marda B. claimed Li's mind giving Li the third eye and erasing all his past memories. Later, Wen tried to save his brother through a B-Dabattle. Luckily, Wen won and returned Li to his normal self.
