"Blue Buster!"

Ryuji Iwasaki (岩崎 リュウジ) is Blue Buster (ブルーバスター) of the Go-Busters. He is a warrior with excellent fighting technique, as well as the oldest of the team. His partner Buddy Roid is Gorisaki Banana.

His Buster Power is super strength. However, this has a dangerous trade-off. When Ryuji uses his power too much he starts to overheat and has to take time to cool down. If he completely overheats, his personality changes to a very violent person, and might do some lasting damage before shutting down.

Biography
Ryuji is the eldest of the 3 Busters and the most level headed of the three. He is 28 years old. He's the only one, of the main 3 to not have a family member appear in the series. Though, out of all 5 only, himself, and Jin, don't have any family members appear, only friends.

The three Go-Busters make their first appearance in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger vs. Uchuu Keiji Gavan: The Movie where they take on their predecessors' nemesis, Basco ta Jolokia.

Super Hero Taisen Z
The three Go-Busters are set to appear in Kamen Rider × Super Sentai × Space Sheriff: Super Hero Taisen Z. It has yet to be confirmed whether they will be joined by Beet and Stag Buster.

Personality
Cool-headed and reasonable, Ryuuji is always one to keep his head in the game while his younger comrades bicker amongst themselves. While he knows he's the oldest of the group and acknowledges this, he hates it when anyone other than him mentions this and reminds him of his age.

While he is normally level headed, if Ryuuji overheats completely because of the use of his super strength he becomes sadistic and irritable and will lash out at anything he finds annoying.

Go-Busters video game
Ryuji as Blue Buster appears with his team in the Nintendo DS Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters video game.

Ranger Key
The Blue Buster Ranger Key (ブルーバスターレンジャーキー) is a Go-Buster Ranger Key which as part of the first three Go-Busters was released as part of the "Legends" series of toys. It only exists as a toy and it is unknown if it will appear in the series. Of course as with all Ranger Keys, should it exist, it would be able to transform one, i.e. Gokai Blue, into Blue Buster.
