His first [[Guardian Bakugan]] is [[Preyas]], who has the alternate [[Angelo/Diablo Preyas]] form. In ''New Vestroia'', because of Preyas' capture by the [[Vestal]]s, Marucho takes [[Elfin]] as his Guardian Bakugan. In ''Gundalian Invaders'', he uses [[Akwimos]]. He uses [[Infinity Trister]] as his Guardian in the first arc, and [[Radizen]] and [[Roxtor]] in the second.

==Personality==
He is a wealthy, generous boy who specializes in Aquos. He is the Brain of the Brawlers, a real walking encyclopedia. He loves to play [[Bakugan]] and to work on strategies. He used to be extremely obedient to his parents out of fear, but that changed when he joined the Brawlers; however he is still very obedient. He now has no regrets for the past, realizing that he only wanted to make his parents happy. Marucho has a butler named [[Kato]], though Kato is not usually around Marucho anymore, due to the fact that Kato is now working for Marucho's father.

In the Japanese version, Marucho speaks in a polite and formal keigo accent, thus putting honorifics in his speech and uses honorific suffixes when addressing a character's name, such as Dan-san and Drago-san.

view  
The beauty of water's power is its fluidity. At times it's gentle and soothing; other times, mighty and punishing. That's why I think it's the greatest of all elements. As an Aquos battler, you possess all of those strengths.

Chōji "Marucho" Marukura (丸蔵 兆治 (マルチョ), Marukura Chōji (Marucho)?)[2] is a main character in the anime series, Bakugan Battle Brawlers. He is the Battle Brawlers' main Aquos brawler and maintains this position across its three sequels, New Vestroia, Gundalian Invaders, and Mechtanium Surge. He also made appearances in the video games, as well as Bakugan Dimensions.

His first Guardian Bakugan is Preyas, who has the alternate Angelo/Diablo Preyas form. In New Vestroia, because of Preyas' capture by the Vestals, Marucho takes Elfin as his Guardian Bakugan. In Gundalian Invaders, he uses Akwimos. He uses Infinity Trister as his Guardian in the first arc, and Radizen and Roxtor in the second.

Appearance

Personality

He is a wealthy, generous boy who specializes in Aquos. He is the Brain of the Brawlers, a real walking encyclopedia. He loves to play Bakugan and to work on strategies. He used to be extremely obedient to his parents out of fear, but that changed when he joined the Brawlers; however he is still very obedient. He now has no regrets for the past, realizing that he only wanted to make his parents happy. Marucho has a butler named Kato, though Kato is not usually around Marucho anymore, due to the fact that Kato is now working for Marucho's father.

In the Japanese version, Marucho speaks in a polite and formal keigo accent, thus putting honorifics in his speech and uses honorific suffixes when addressing a character's name, such as Dan-san and Drago-san.
