Former officer of the Earth Defense Force Air Force branch. Hiryuu is a sharpshooter skilled for his accuracy.

Tvicon TV STORY-Ep. 9: Shine! The Special Miracle Ball A courageous and responsible leader, he often lets his emotions get the best of him, getting emotionally involved in cases and when his mind is set on something, he won't let anyone get in his way (even if it's his own teammates). Tsurugi develops a strong bond with Nana and an attraction to Shiima. Initially stubborn, wanting to act mostly on his own, needing to realize there will be times he has to depend on his teammates and fellow officers.

As ChangeDragon, Hiryuu is armed with the Change Sword (with its option of gun or sword) and Dragon-Zooka, which has the power of a tank's launcher. In episode nine, he was armed with the Bomb Ball, invented by Yuuma. His specialty is air-born attacks, shooting and sword-battle. Pilots the mecha Jetchanger 1.
