Ryuji Iwasaki is 28 years old and he is the most experienced out of the Go-Busters team as Blue Buster. He is easy-going and always keeps a cool head, rarely seen being angry over anything. Ryuji's Super Power manifests in his arms, giving him superstrength.
His Weakpoint is that his body overheats if he uses his superpower for too long. Once overheated, his strength increases exponentially and gains a murderous personality along with it, being thoroughly incapable of telling friend from foe. He cannot be stopped once overheated and one can only wait until he shuts down on his own. As a side effect, Ryuji is also far more susceptible to heat than normal people and can overheat if his surroundings are too warm, although he would merely be very aggressive and irritable instead of murderous.

Though ice and large amounts of water can be used, a special cooling cream is more effective to cool him down. Compared to his teammates, his Weakpoint is the least likely to happen, so long as he uses his Super Power sparingly and with caution, but it is also the most devastating when it does happen. Ironically, his Weakpoint can be considered a mixed blessing as he can use the increased strength and destructive personality to deal with Metaloids far easier than it would usually be.
His overheating happenings are so rare that Yoko, despite growing up together with him over a decade, had never seen him overheat even once until recently. As Blue Buster Powered Custom, wearing the Protector armor created from Gorisaki's data, Ryuji's superhuman strength is amplified with the added ability to analyze any substance to create a digital copy of it for use. He can also use data to perform the Gorillarge Punch attack.
As a child living near one of the facilities that employ Megazords, Ryuji grew up aspiring to become an engineer. However, Ryuji is forced to give up his childhood dream after the accident to become a Go-Buster. As the oldest of the Go-Busters, he feels that it is his duty to watch over Hiromu and Yoko, mediating whenever they start bickering. Unlike his teammates who started training at a very young age, he was already a teenager when his training started and as such, he trains extra hard to catch up to them.
He is a rather passive in his approach to things and unlike Hiromu and Yoko, lacks a personal reason to fight. As such, he is very much a background character supporting his juniors in battle until Masato prompts him to find a personal reason, which he finds to be resuming his dream once Vaglass is defeated. After destroying Megazord Omega, the Go-Busters finally face Enter once and for all. Ryuji transfers his power into Hiromu so he can use the Volcanick All Busters Attack to defeat Enter. After the battle ends, Ryuji becomes an engineer as he always wanted.
