Julie Makimoto (Japanese Version: Julie Hayward (ジュリィ・ヘイワード, Juryi Heiwādo)) is one of the characters of the anime series Bakugan Battle Brawlers. Julie is the Subterra brawler of the Battle Brawlers, partnered with Subterra Hammer Gorem.
She has an older sister named Daisy Makimoto and is childhood friends with Billy Gilbert who, after Julie realizes she likes him, eventually became her boyfriend at the end of episode 47, "Here's Mud In Your Eye"; they hail from Bakugan Valley in Australia (America in the Japanese dub), though Julie moved to Bayview at some point before the start of the series.
Julie appears as a recurring secondary character in the following seasons, and moves to Bayview along with Dan Kuso in Bakugan Battle Brawlers: Gundalian Invaders. By the events of Bakugan Battle Brawlers: Mechtanium Surge, she has become a news reporter for Bakugan City.
Julie is a girl who tries to stay happy even when the worst has happened; her acting happy after something bad happened is generally just to hide up her true feelings. Julie forgets things easily, proving that she is a little scatterbrained at times.
Gender: Female
Main Attribute: Subterra
Guardian Bakugan: Hammer Gorem
Julie is a young pretty girl with very tanned skin, long, pinkish-white hair that is always in a side ponytail with bangs swept to the left side, blue eyes and she has long tanned legs.
Julie enjoys dressing immodestly (particularly to attract boys), always wearing clothes fit for summer months. She is particularly fond of leaving her midriff (belly) and long legs completely exposed.
In Bakugan Battle Brawlers, she wears a pink midriff-baring outfit with white fingerless gloves that covers her forearms. Her belly button is visible. She wears headphones and a portable music player attached to her right shoulder (but is rarely seen listening to it). She wears white high heeled boots that matches her elbow length white fingerless gloves, and wears Large white heart shaped earrings at all times.
Julie may come off a bit scatter-brained, but she can compete with the best Bakugan brawlers. She is bubbly, extroverted and adores Dan Kuso (whom she calls "darling" in the Japanese version, but now calls him in his real name since Season 4). Because she saw herself as Dan's number one fan, she and Runo Misaki often clashed out of jealousy. However, in episode 47, "Here's Mud In Your Eye", after Julie realizes she likes Billy Gilbert and the two becomes a couple, she and Runo went on to become best friends.
She tries to help out and give helpful advice whenever someone needs it. In both New Vestroia and Gundalian Invaders, she advises Mira Fermin and Jake Vallory, the brawlers that filled the Subterra positions in the Battle Brawlers, how to properly brawl in their element.
