What the hell is Kai's nationality? Is he russian or japanese? I mean he grew up in Russia but that doesn't make him russian already.. I mean just look at his name and surname. Kai Hiwatari is japanese so he must be japanese as well.

His surname is Hiwatari so he's a japanese. But officially, when a person is born in some other country and his/her parents become the citizen later, the child is considered as the citizen of that country he /she was born.
I guess I'm talikng like a teacher :shock:

Hmmmm...good question...Well, I really don't know that. It could be that he must be born in Japan, and then his parents died so Voltaire took him to Russia to that orphanage. Or it could be that he was born there only, in Russia and then raised in the orphanage.
But I reckon the first one is correct, I mean he was born in Japan. That make's him a japanese. But dunno, he might have got the citizenship of Russia later...But in the first series, he was in Japan only, with Blade Sharks as their captain. But maybe he later that means in the 1st series went to Japan because he wanted to capture the other 3 holy bit-beast.

I never read the mangas actually :( I even asked people here in the Books and Manga discussion that where can I find to read Beyblade mangas on net ? If you say so that it is according to the manga, then it might be correct. But from what I saw in the first version of Beyblade, I saw and heard that his parents died when he was very young and the voltaire took him to the orphanage and he was raised there only until he went somewhere one day. Can you suggest me any related manga ? Any website ? Then I might check it out ^-^ to know more.
