100% Just a personal preference and constructive criticism, it may be a culture thing and I may be completely wrong so please do with this comment whatever you wish But when you end each sentence it sounds like you are raising your voice while elongating the syllables and you do a quick pause, in America that usually implies you are asking the audience a question, so I would try to keep the last word in the sentence the same and not elongated, again though please take this as nothing but constructive criticism, your video was great

A friend of mine also wants to watch them with me (who has never heard of of the show), so if you have a clean version of this review please post/add a link! Thanks for this!

Until now I realize that the main four bit-beasts are the Four Symbols of Asian Mythology that guard the four cardinal directions. I have seen these four beast in other animes and games: Black Turtle, Vermilion Phoenix, Azure Dragon and White Tiger. I started to wonder why the BladeBreakers's bit-beasts were sacred, besides plot, and now I realize they are based on literally sacred guardian beasts of mythology.

A lot of people used to hate Hilary because she was just a bystander that was just inserted because she was a girl, but I always liked her. I always shipped her with Tyson because I felt that she was the perfect foil for Tyson, as he tends to get a very inflated ego at times, and Hilary helps reel him back and focus on the bigger picture. She's a great character to help balance out Tyson's more reckless behavior.

Since detailing the differences between anime and manga for V-Force was a giant tangled mess due to how the adaptation process flip-flopped events around and added a lot of fluff between the major story beats, I’ll just leave a neat and hopefully succinct timeline of the manga’s events. Here goes: -two months after Tyson defeated Tala and Wolborg 2 with his new and improved Dragoon Victory, Tyson goes to meet Tala for a rematch he offered as a show of good will -upon reaching the site for battling Tala, Tyson is instead witness to Tala getting handily beaten by Ozuma, a new blader he’d never seen before -Tyson challenges Ozuma immediately and wins in convincing fashion by ring out after being initially overwhelmed -Ozuma has his Flash Leopard re-enter the arena to drag the battle out and is joined in attacking Tyson by his three allies, the Saint Shields -as Tyson is beaten down four to one, the other Bladebreakers race in to warn him of the Saint Shields but find Dragoon about to be stolen by their combined powers; Ray sacrifices Driger to save Tyson and Dragoon -after the Saint Shields leave victorious, Tala reveals to the Bladebreakers that both he and Ozuma work under Doctor Zagart; online searching by Kenny uncovers more information on the enigmatic scientist including that his lab is actually an office building in town -the Bladebreakers elect to storm the building later that night in hopes of challenging the Saint Shields once again -while desiring to prove himself useful to the Bladebreakers, Kenny wanders alone with his laptop and comes across Doctor Zagart -when Kenny ends up being a no-show to the Bladebreakers’ meetup before the storming of Zagart’s lab, Tyson decides to press forward without him; the Bladebreakers go as high as they’re able and come across the Saint Shields in a corridor -the Saint Shields, Ozuma now armed with Flash Leopard 2, challenge the Bladebreakers to a full team battle but only Tyson and Ray (the two most aggrieved) take the challenge -while Tyson and Ray are overwhelmed at first by being undermanned and outgunned, they’re able to cover one another well enough to stay competitive; when the Saint Shields combine powers in a bid to steal Dragoon, Tyson and Ray combine powers to break the sealing technique and defeat all four opponents at once (Ray gets Driger back in his blade at this point) -after the Saint Shields are defeated and their true allegiance against Zagart is revealed, Zagart himself enters the scene with both the Psykicks and, to the Bladebreakers’ shock, Kenny in tow -Kane breaks Ozuma’s blade and Tyson throws out a challenge to him; Dragoon V is faced with Cyber Dragoon, a blade designed by Kenny to structurally counter Dragoon in addition to possessing an artificial reproduction of its namesake Bit Beast -in truth, Kenny is still on the Bladebreakers’ side and the Cyber Bit Beasts he creates were merely a way to push his friends’ limits, complete with putting a secret restraint in to cap their adaptive properties and power output -Zagart and Kane, who’s extremely proud of his high IQ, then reveal that they knew about the kid gloves Kenny put on the Cyber Bit Beasts and unlock them across the board so that Cyber Dragoon can utterly destroy Dragoon V2 with its full power -Kenny runs off frantically with Tyson trailing behind while Max, Ray, and Kai have no choice but to face down Jim, Salima, and Gouki together on the spot -Kenny reaches his lab in Zagart’s facility and reveals to Tyson that he was working on a new Dragoon blade with Zagart’s resources that’s near completion -Kane enters the private lab and has Cyber Dragoon wreck the computers around the room to torment Kenny as the new Dragoon neared completion but spent so long doing so that the new Dragoon was completed anyways; Tyson then rescued the fabled blade with a diving save once Kane finally elected to attack it directly -Tyson and Kane take their rematch to the building’s roof from Kenny’s lab and square off, with Tyson ultimately winning after a heated bout that pushed both sides to their limit -back inside the lab, the Bladebreakers sense that Tyson somehow defeated Kane up above and defeat their cybernetic knockoffs with teamwork and unity -business with Zagart settled, or so it seemed, the Bladebreakers go their separate ways in preparation for the upcoming world championships; meanwhile Doctor Zagart secretly has one last ace in the hole for defeating the Bladebreakers and claiming their Bit Beasts at last -some time later, a green-haired stranger challenged Tyson in the middle of training to a friendly bout; after a back and forth that rivaled the battle with Kane in intensity, the battle ends in a draw and Zeo, the stranger in question, takes his leave -it later turns out that Zeo held back considerably against Tyson to gather more combat data for a final confrontation -at the qualifier to represent Japan in the world championships, Tyson is met once again by Zeo and Zagart but Kai challenges Zeo first -Zeo gives Kai the full Super Trunks vs Perfect Cell treatment (complete with Kai overextending on his power output and Dranzer crashing into a fountain for being too slow to hit Burning Kerberus) but is stopped from stealing Dranzer by Tyson -Tyson bets Dragoon double or nothing for a rematch against Zeo, which the Zagart family accept -in a much more back and forth battle than their previous, Tyson and Zeo give their full effort only for Burning Kerberus to snatch Dragoon from his blade to ensure an easy victory… or so Zeo thinks as Tyson pressures him unimpeded by the loss of his Bit Beast with raw skill, proclaiming that they make one another stronger -Tyson also learns about the real aim and motivations of Zeo and Zagart; the real Zeo died long ago, the Zeo we know is actually said Zeo’s younger brother raised to take Zeo’s likeness and become a perfectionist, and Zagart seeks the Bit Beasts of the Bladebreakers to bring the real Zeo back from the dead with their unified wish-granting power -because Leon’s Burning Kerberus still has a Bit Beast while Tyson doesn’t, he simply attempts to blast apart the weakened Dragoon V2 only for Dragoon to break out from within Kerberus mid-attack and return to Tyson -Dragoon V2 evolves into Dragoon Galaxy and defeats Burning Kerberus’ strongest attack in a final clash of power -out of tricks to claim the Bit Beasts, Zagart is forced to accept the loss of his son with finality while Tyson convinces Leon to assert himself as his own person, leaving the former villains to walk off and pick up the pieces of their bond as father and son -Kai develops an extreme chip on his shoulder from his humiliating loss to Zeo and rescue by Tyson, which defines who he is for the upcoming world championships -in the qualifying tournament proper, Tyson and Kai are placed into the two separate brackets to decide Japan’s reps on the world stage -Tyson sweeps the competition with ease in his division while Kai has similar luck in his own bracket until, as revealed in a later side story, he reached the Finals and battled newcomer protagonist Daichi… who pushed Kai to his limit despite a commanding lead in their battle, which causes Kai to snap in fear of losing and defeat Daichi’s Gaia Dragoon in a fiery rage -insert G-Revolution here

@@mayborneflower Upon reading all of that I can say definitively say for me that pales nothing in comparison to the anime version. A lot of the recurring enemies came out one after the other defeated the next opponent moves on. Hardly any slice of life stuff unless it would have made it to long & needless as to why you didn't include any in your summary. With the Saint Shields at least they were a reacurring force from start to finish in the anime version. But Kane coming out the blue beats down Ozuma's blade completely destroying it last we hear of the Saint Sheilds going forward as his major upset beating Tala as powerful as he was to Ozuma & that's the end of him. Zeo wow what a quick intoduction & end point not much exploration into his character & relationship with Tyson. But Tyson actually losing his bit beast for once FOR ONCE... wow, now that's something unique to the series. I've found though for both 2000 & metal beyblade that the characters just seems so much better explored in their anime versions in metal especially Kyoya Tategami in Masters & Fury partcularly if you've ever seen them. Still nice to see read the otherside though of there counterparts. If you summarize G-Revolution Manga in the next vid I will read through that in the same way & scale the difference there if your happy with that🙂

I think one of the things I feel like criticizing in V-Force the most is the constant villain of the week battle they get. The previous Team Psykick battlers, the Bit Beast users, were all just randos that attacked the Bladebreakers but you literally never see them again afterward. They are just fought once and that's the end of that, which honestly made the power of those sealed Bit Beasts feel less of a threat until the tournament arc where we had Zeo and his partner take the stand.

But I feel like they wanted to not repeat the same story arc as season 1, and instead wanted to delve into the story another way. And while I loved the lore about the Bit Beasts, it made the championship battles at the very end feel weak in comparison. How was it a world championship if they weren't even traveling around like before? Felt more like an above-average tournament.

It did take me awhile to get used to the animation for this season. But I feel once you get past that its a pretty good season. This season was packed with so much plots. Hilary did slowly get better similar to Daichi in the next season. Feel this season could have done with a few more episodes or cutting some of the filler fights for more scenes of King, Queen, and eo being a robot. Was surprised to find out Dizzi was a dub only character, will miss Dizzi. The OSTs were too good in the dub.

I remember Cartoon Network running marathons for V Force a lot back when it was initially being aired in the UK. I think it would be fairly accurate to say that V Force happened when the series popularity peaked (very bold statement I realise but it seemed like Beyblade was not hard to find when V Force was airing) The show itself is great. Only problem I had is everyone of the new bladers have the same motivation: They want the Bladebreakers Bit-Beasts for whatever reason. It does make you kind of bored of the concept when you almost never get a break from it. King and Queen, probably the most unique of all the new characters, end up getting roped into this Bit-Beast shit which is why G-Revolution deciding to stop focusing on the Bit Beasts was a breath of fresh air Some of the best episodes were the ones focused on just the characters and not so much the overarching story (Hilary's attempts to become part of the team, Tyson's friendship with Zeo)

V-force was definitely the peak here in the UK, your right. I think the huge emphasis on the bit beasts in the first 2 seasons is what drove the franchise’s popularity amongst kids. I mean who wouldn’t want a Dragon that they can metaphorically call out in a real life beybattle? Focusing less on the bit beasts in G-revolution was the right call, cos we got to explore the dynamic between the bladebreakers more which is ultimately the core of the series 🙌🏼

V-Force was my jam as a kid, even moreso than Season 1. I loved the overarching story and more persistent antagonists. I also quite liked the CGI blades for the added detail, and getting to see the Bit Beasts in full colour. I know this video is based on the dub, and the dub is what I watched as a kid and an adult, but I wanted to mention that Wyatt actually _dies_ in the sub. And the dub doesn't do an _amazing_ job at hiding it, either. Poor kid becomes the first character to definitely die because of spinning tops, it's wild, but it really helps sell the threat of the Cyber Bit Beasts. Will you be covering the Fierce Battle movie? As I understand, it's not actually canon, but it's still pretty neat and it has the first instance of _Hang On,_ a song that was infamously (within the fandom, anyway) partially lost media for _years,_ as no full version was ever released, meaning that every upload of it had to be spliced together from the movie and various episodes of G-Revolution, all of it having sound-effects from the show as part of it. Then like two years ago it randomly got uploaded to KZbin in full.

one thing I don't see people commenting on is that for Tyson, the art change was so intense that even his skin color looks way lighter than previously. Kai looks younger. unpopular opinion, this second season is much better than G revolution. The way they got rid of bit beasts is unexcusable I mean how do you go from having bit beasts being the center of everything to being barely there? Also, the bladebreakers not fighting together as a team. And also the bladebreakers having always fought as team but somehow Tyson is the only one who gets all the credit bc the other members "haven't one yet" weren't they all fighting as a team this whole time? If Tyson has one 3 times so did the others bc Tyson was fighting for the team. He wouldn't have had the chance to fight Tala had it not been for Ray who was in a come back in season one. So Grevolution is messed up IMO because it doesn't make sense for the other members to ditch Tyson bc "they wanna win too" they all have already. But nothing beats season one for me. I do like the darker themes on this season.

Was excited to see this! Season 2 is probably my least favourite with how the first and second half are almost the same. With it having a world championship, I wish we could have some from the 1st season return like the mystics, Allstars or the undead team. I loved the animation change because of how much better the bit beasts became and how it helped the kids look younger and more their age. I started out not liking Hilary as a kid. I liked her much better in the next season.

Finally finished! I agree i would have vastly preferred to have Ozuma be the final villain. Zeo in general felt kind of shoehorned in. Ozuma though had awesome build up and his mindset felt more like something worthy of a final villain given how desperate he was to fulfill his clan's mission. Zeo's desperation while understandable just felt like a slightly watered down Ozuma just due to the amount of time we had with them.

When I watched V-force what surprised me and confused me a lot was the character change in Kai. I know he has complex emotions but I was still very surprised that he would show them so openly and then in G Revolution he is back to normal. He was always more a man of few words but showing he that he cares in action. I don't know, in v force he seemes a bit "weaker" in general. As I understand it, v force was a bit strange because there takao aoki didn't have an eye on it since he was in the making of the g revolution part from the manga so all of the character were a bit out of character. To me Tyson and Max were significantly different to their counterparts from the first season, too. It's subtle but it doesn't feel like them. Even today when you look at new blade breakers merchandise, tyson suddenly has blue eyes and the drawing style is very different. It's like somebody else drew them and forgot that tyson has brown eyes in g revolution. I like character development but it has to make sense and be congruent with the rest. To me, v force therefore didn't have the same feel to me like the rest.

To me the second season was a lot of plot armor, really boring because there is no real story like in the first season (just a bunch of new enemies) and like two steps back.

Beyblade V-Force is good but there are a lot of unanswer question like about everything had happen in the series like what became of the stolen ancient rock were it contain bit-beasts now that Zagart gave up his goal of capturing the Bladebreakers Bit Beast. I would also like to know it's fate the same goes for other charaters who disappeared for unknown reason like Slim & Fatso(Gideon's henchmen), Dan (Doctor K's Assistant) and Doctor K herself. The biggest question of all is has Queen's Gabriel return to her after her beyblade is destroyed.

I enjoyed V Force. "It's Beyblade so it's in my blood. Lol😂" But it does have issues. 1. Hilary. I honestly don't understand why she is so focused on what Tyson is doing or his goals are. Yes she's the class rep... and??? She is not Tyson's mother, the teacher or anything of the sort so really She has no right to order Tyson around. 2. The Saint shields goal. The Saint shields are without a doubt one of the strongest teams and one of my favorites. "I only got Flash Leopard and it's been long destroyed from my childhood." Yet I never really understood why they were so sure the bit beasts would go out of control or the bladebreakers would misuse them. That's kinda of assuming, and you know what they say there.^^. But great video bud!^^ keep up the good work.

Personally to me, this felt very different from the first and third season. Hardly anyone from the og season another than a few key characters reappeared until season 3, including past teams who didn’t even complete in the world champions. Also, other than Hilary, no one from v force was in g revolution other than the series finale ending. V force also was where the really changed the art style into a more common type. Some didn’t like that because they thought that the more rough drawn style of the original gave it more personality. I did like some aspects of the art from the original especially some of the more loose art in it, but vforce and g revolutions style is way better in terms of consistency and overall visual appeal. Overall, it’s still a good season. And honestly other than maybe the metal series, this is better than anything we got going forward. Including Shogun Steel

Alright, new round of differences between anime and manga for the V-Force arc. As before, I’ll just watch the video blind and address stuff as it comes up. To begin with, the V-Force equivalent starts two months later and starts with a mini-retcon to Tyson’s second battle against Tala. After Tyson won and Tala was understandably sore about losing to a last minute friendship evolution, Tyson made a friendly offer for a third and final rematch. Meet in two months at the same place they originally battled for the first time and they’ll duke it out no stakes. That’s the premise we start on, the anime was at least faithful in how the Bladebreakers went their separate ways in the interim. Now for the actual differences: okay so based on the premise above, it should go without saying that we don’t deal with Tyson’s school life or any local tournaments in any capacity; the first encounter with Ozuma instead happens when Tyson walks in on Tala fighting him, just in time to witness him lose in spectacular fashion; Tyson challenges Ozuma immediately and it starts rocky with Dragoon Victory on the backfoot against the overwhelming power and speed of Flash Leopard before getting hit with the full force of their finishing move… only for Tyson and Dragoon to reveal that not only did they survive but we’re holding back a bit; I’m throwing in a quick side note here to explain that the Saint Shields don’t have invisibility powers for their Bit Beasts in the manga, they’re just explicitly stronger than the Demolition Boys for the sake of Shonen-standard power escalation; back to the first fight with Ozuma, Flash Leopard’s performance gets Tyson pumped up before Dragoon reverses the prior curbstomping and cleanly sweeps Flash Leopard out of the dish despite Ozuma’s best attempts to resist; the aftermath of Tyson and Ozuma’s battle is actually spun off into two unique battles for the V-Force anime in adaptation (specifically all four Saint Shields ganging up on Tyson together and Ray’s big defeat against Dunga), which I’ll elaborate upon once I get to one of those; Dragoon doesn’t disobey Tyson or fail to appear for him in battle until two separate points taking place much later narratively; while the villains of the V-Force manga are making a point to tail and record the battle prowess of the Bladebreakers, they are mainly reliant on past battle data from the World Championship and the Demolition Boys’ endgame or new data acquired by picking fights with them directly (so no Doctor B, Gideon, and no obvious spies in black suits); the villains do indeed approach Kenny for something but it’s actually Doctor Zagart himself offering Kenny a job to put his knowledge towards Beyblade innovations rather than a kidnapping; the manga makes a point to show that the blader’s bond and personal resonance with their Bit Beast brings out their innate power, didn’t realize the anime had a plot point about Bit Beasts bolstering their owners in turn; at no point do Tyson or anyone else battle let alone egregiously lose to generic black blades operated by robot drone launchers; the other Saint Shields did indeed track the remaining Bladebreakers but we’re never given insight on any battles they’ve had, simply that our heroes recognized that their Bit Beasts were being hunted and urgently sought out Tyson together after touching base on the matter; we do not see Kai, who never retired, attend prep school during this point in time, so RIP Wyatt; the Psykicks team in the manga is under the direct command of Doctor Zagart and solely consists of two elite units, so no Gideon and none of these monster of the week trainees are a factor; no Bladebreaker sleepovers, what a waste; Kai is decidedly much less apprehensive about being teamed with the Bladebreakers… at first (we’ll get to that)… as they never really broke up in the first place and the Saint Shields were bad enough news to warrant them physically reuniting as soon as humanly possible; the entire V-Force storyline is localized to Japan so the Bladebreakers never seek any international help and no previous series characters besides Tala show up; the BBA is entirely uninvolved with the plot until the direct preamble to G-Revolution at the very end; due to the more compact utilization of Team Psykick in the manga, the Bladebreakers aren’t lured into a team battle death trap to claim their Bit Beasts like Doctor B would’ve arranged for; as I covered with my recounting from last video, the existence of Magna Cores was (re)introduced by Tyson using one for Dragoon F’s tip in his battle against Tala and then evolving Dragoon V rather than it being a creation of the villains; the implementation of Magna Cores are dramatically understated in the manga and their magnetic properties have no real impact at all, so there’s no learning curve for using them; the Bladebreakers are never abducted for a survival battle, instead the Bladebreakers (after being given a hot tip by Tala about Doctor Zagart’s ties to both the Saint Shields and Boris) elect to storm Zagart’s laboratory office building the night after Tyson’s first fight with Ozuma; since you brought up the Cyber Bit Beasts before they get to appear, I’d like to drop the bombshell that Kenny was the one who made them in the manga, in under a day; before I elaborate on that, the Saint Shields and Psykicks are uneasy allies in the manga rather than mutual enemies to each other for the Bladebreakers’ Four Holy Beasts… kinda, basically they want to take the Bit Beasts for safe-keeping like in the anime but shacked up with Zagart to claim them on his behalf and then immediately tank his operations from within in the mother of all double-crosses, which would’ve failed because he saw it coming a mile away; back to the Cyber Bit Beasts of the manga, Kenny was approached by Doctor Zagart after a seemingly chance encounter and was impressed with his research enough to offer him a job and resources to put his findings to use; as for how the Cyber Bit Beasts operate, the beasts are cybernetic reproductions of their original counterparts based on Kenny’s data from all four Bladebreakers while the blades that house them were designed to direct counter the playstyles of his friends, in addition to possessing adaptive capabilities, to push them their limits; I was wrong, there was a third fight that was adapted from Tyson and Ozuma’s first manga fight, which would be Max and Ray’s tag battles against Mariam and Joseph; to elaborate (since I’ve put it off), when Tyson defeated Ozuma by ring out in the manga, Ozuma had Flash Leopard wobble back into the beydish mid-celebration to drag the fight out and the other three Saint Shields attacked Tyson with him, which means the Saint Shields have zero qualms about fighting dirty or outnumbering a lone opponent whenever they face a disadvantage (complete with a dedicated team attack) in both canons; the Cyber Bit Beasts are not radioactive or corruptive in the manga; while they technically act as a level grind for facing the Cyber Bit Beasts like in the anime, the Saint Shields are decisively put to rest first between the two factions in the manga; the Bladebreakers start the V-Force storyline with their V series blade rather than being given or upgraded to them at a later point; like in the anime, the manga Cyber Bit Beasts also have power limiters albeit baked into the design from the start because Kenny was on the Bladebreakers’ side through and through, so he capped their adaptive abilities and power output so his friends could more reasonably overcome them in a straight fight; the Bladebreakers don’t suffer any falling out or train together during the manga version of V-Force; Kane and friends are the main Psykicks unit in the manga, collective depicted as willingly evil mercs working under Zagart; while Kane and friends are depicted as kind souls who worked to save an elderly stranger’s life in the anime, the Psykicks are introduced in the manga by kicking the Saint Shields when they’re down after their final defeat to the Bladebreakers, with Kane in particular being an arrogant bully due to having both prodigal Beyblading talent and genius-level intellect; Kane’s first battle with Tyson has him wield Cyber Dragoon from the start (after breaking it in against Ozuma, fresh off his big loss), where he overwhelms Tyson, reveals to Kenny that he and Zagart found the secret limiters on the Cyber Bit Beasts in advance, and, upon unleashing Cyber Dragoon’s unmitigated power, brutally destroyed Dragoon V with ease; at no point do any of the Bladebreakers consider the use of illegal mods for a competitive advantage; given how I’ve been name-dropping Zagart long before his presence was alluded in Episode 20, it should go without saying that he was unveiled as the central antagonist almost immediately and the Bladebreakers go directly for him after a bit of sleuthing;

⁠​⁠@@raytaku_ I ran out of room it seems :/ To continue off now that we’re at the Psykick team battle, it’s time to say “this is structured much differently in the manga” and explain the broad strokes on how; immediately after the Bladebreakers beat the Saint Shields and Kane breaks Dragoon, Kenny runs off in a panic with Tyson following while the other Bladebreakers fight their respective knock-offs simultaneously on the spot; Kenny reveals to Tyson that the Cyber Bit Beast project was a false flag for the fact that he was secretly using Zagart’s resources to build a better Dragoon blade that’s near-completion… only for Kane to storm in and torment Kenny by destroying the lab computers seconds away from his work’s fruition, though Tyson saves the defenseless Dragoon blade from Cyber Dragoon at the last second; Tyson and Kane take their rematch to the roof of Zagart’s lab, where the new and improved Dragoon Victory 2 initially curbstomps Cyber Dragoon, Kane angrily adapts to Tyson’s new power with Cyber Dragoon growing stronger in kind, and Dragoon’s power exceeds anything Kane or Cyber Dragoon could ever fathom with his first use of the Hyper Victory Tornado; back inside the lab hallway, Tyson’s final attack on Kane shakes the whole skyscraper so the Bladebreakers correctly assume he got stronger and won, thus they subsequently step up their game to not be left behind and blitz the Psykicks by combining their best attacks to wreck the Cyber Bit Beasts three-to-one in succession after fighting their own counterparts got them nowhere; the Cyber Bit Beasts are not supported by advantageous terrain or high tech cheating (again, no robot grunt work); Max doesn’t lose to Jim; there is no stone tablet containing Bit Beasts within it (that we know of) and, once again, no trips out of Japan for Tyson… so that means no Alan or Doctor K; Kenny’s Einstein Metal Spring blade doesn’t appear until the back half of the G-Revolution part of the manga, as it is part of the Hard Metal System line of Beyblades (aka, the predominantly metallic ones); Zagart has no known prior ties to the BBA and his base of operations (operating from an office building through a legal front in Tyson’s home city) was easily located by Kenny after Tala revealed his involvement with all plot developments to that point; backtracking to Tyson’s first fight with Ozuma and the part where Flash Leopard is blasted out of the dish and comes back in, all four Saint Shields attack Tyson’s Dragoon Victory together as the other Bladebreakers race in to ironically warn Tyson about the Saint Shields coming after him; with their combined power, the Shields use a team attack designed to seal away Bit Beasts on the weakened Dragoon only for Ray to launch in his Driger Vulcan and take Tyson’s place in the seal (which is why he also loses his Driger in the anime); as for how Zeo is depicted, he’s Zagart’s strongest blader of all (so above the likes of Tala, Ozuma, and Kane, possibly combined) due to a strict upbringing who loves playing the violin and presents himself as a cool-headed stoic; Zeo first meets Tyson and Kenny while they’re doing some training for the upcoming world championships and challenges Tyson to a friendly battle; in their first battle, Zeo with Burning Kerberus (an almighty “three-headed” blade designed by Zagart after thorough research on the Bladebreakers, Tyson in particular) immediately manages to pressure Tyson despite the already unprecedented power displayed by Dragoon V2 and effectively manipulated him into abiding the tempo he set, as if Zeo were conducting a dirge while Tyson had to play along to his own demise; Tyson would ultimately get the hang of the tempo Zeo set and counter his melodic style of battle, then both Dragoon and Kerberus unleashed their Bit Beasts and knocked each other out; once their battle was called a draw, Zeo walked off… at which point he and Zagart establish that he held back to gather just a bit more data on Tyson and his new Dragoon before committing to taking the Bladebreakers’ Holy Beasts for real; once again, the lack of Doctor K or mysterious rock in the manga means that the only Psykick left in Zagart’s roster is Zeo, so no filler battles against K’s line of Psykicks to be had; due to the Bladebreakers being seldom together for prolonged periods and the crises they face being dramatically shorter lived (plus smaller in scope regardless), no dedicated training room is made for the team; Tyson and Zeo only battle twice in the manga version of V-Force; after Driger is taken from Ray, the Bladebreakers seek the Saint Shields for a rematch as soon as they can (in this case, finding Zagart’s lab in an office building after some digging and storming the place that very night) without any extra battles in between; at the final confrontation between Bladebreakers and Saint Shields, all four from both sides meet during the former’s storming of Zagart’s lab building; the Saint Shields collectively challenge all four Bladebreakers at once in a bid to take their Bit Beasts in a single fell swoop, confident that Ray being short his Driger puts them at an advantage; in total contrast to the anime, Tyson has two technical victories over Ozuma (winning the first battle by ring out, and winning again more decisively despite facing all four Saint Shields at once) as opposed to anime Ozuma holding the better track record with the final battle being a tie; the final venue of the manga’s V-Force arc is actually a qualifying tournament for the new World Championship rather than an oddly Japan-insular World Champion in itself, though said World Championship (the focal point of G-Revolution in the manga) is still a tag-team tournament; the V-Force plot concludes immediately before the actual tournament rather than during it; needless to say, Zeo of the manga is not only fully aware of Zagart’s plans from the get-go but also personally focal to their final stages; King and Queen do not exist in the manga, and neither the Saint Shields nor Kane’s iteration of the Psykicks have any involvement with the World Championship tournament whatsoever (also King’s Ariel blade is also known as Wolborg 3, so chances are that Tala owns it in the manga canon before being reintroduced with Wolborg 4 later); due to Kane’s quartet and Zeo himself being the only Psykicks in the manga canon, Gordo and his Orthus by default also don’t exist; Kai having an issue of his Dranzer V2 being too strong for its own good but not fast enough to truly make it work is actually in the manga as well but it comes up in his fight with Zeo instead; there is no mariachi in the manga, ever; for Zagart’s last gambit, he and Zeo simply intercept Tyson outside the tournament venue and challenge him outright only for Kai to interrupt and challenge Zeo first; Zeo fights Kai and easily toys with him till he snaps, launching into an all-or-nothing final attack that even Zeo himself admits to being too dangerous to withstand… so Kerberus sidesteps Dranzer, causing him to crash into a nearby fountain and all but take himself out while Zeo mocks Kai for being too slow; Max does not receive Draciel V2 until G-Revolution in the manga

@@raytaku_ Out of room once again, this one is all for the final battle. Buckle up. Zeo’s Kerberus doesn’t lay claim to Dranzer after handily defeating Kai, but only because Tyson steps between their blades and tells Zeo something like “you already won the fight, that’s enough” when he tried to steal Dranzer; Kai takes his defeat to Zeo in the manga far worse due to it being a one-sided beating that ended with him as a damsel for Tyson to rescue, developing a severe chip on his shoulder that follows him into G-Revolution; Kai fighting in top form without a Bit Beast is actually a Tyson feat from the manga, I’ll elaborate soon; Max never fights Zeo, and Zeo never gets to use Dranzer or Draciel’s power (seemingly only having the power to seal Bit Beasts in itself, not harness them outright); the Zeo of the manga is not a robot but instead the younger brother of the real Zeo, Leon, whom Zagart raised to assume the likeness and interests of his new namesake in addition to seeking the Four Holy Beasts held by the Bladebreakers; as manga Zeo is a proxy for the long dead real Zeo, Zagart and Leon’s aim is to use the Four Holy Beasts to revive the dead with a wish to make their family whole again; after Kai’s loss, Tyson keeps Zeo from taking Dranzer (after initially stepping between them to stop the stealing process) and challenges Zeo double or nothing by staking Dragoon for a battle just between them; in the actual battle, Tyson (prepared by his previous fight with Zeo and directly witnessing Kai’s defeat) and Zeo (running on the most up to date combat data he and Zagart assembled) have a much more back and forth bout than they did previously with Tyson ultimately taking the upper hand; while Zeo and Burning Kerberus don’t get to steal and assimilate Dranzer between battles like in the anime, the manga instead has them demonstrate the ability to abduct a Bit Beast mid-battle by stealing Dragoon straight from his blade; despite Zeo’s reasonable assumption that Tyson would be down and out without Dragoon’s power, he’s proven wrong as Tyson keeps fighting on like nothing happened and highlights how fighting with Dragoon sharpened his raw skills as a show of how they bring the best out of one another; after being overwhelmed by a de-fanged Tyson and Dragoon V2, Zeo desperately attempts to take them out with his strongest finishing move only for Dragoon to break himself free from within Kerberus; upon returning to his blade, Dragoon (in stronger unity with Tyson than ever before) evolves from his Victory 2 form into Dragoon Galaxy then defeats Burning Kerberus in a final clash of power; made aware of Zagart and Leon’s situation during the final battle, Tyson gets Leon to assert himself as his own person and Zagart to cope with the real Zeo’s death; after the final battle, Zagart and Leon walk off to start fresh; Burning Kerberus lacks the ability to split three ways, instead having finishing moves corresponding to its three heads (one for fire, one for wind, and one for electricity) plus a secret fourth attack that combines all three into darkness

For me my favorite battle from this season was for years Tyson vs Ozuma round 3, at the park. But as I re-watched the entire season a couple of years ago, I came to think that Zeo vs Ozuma match, while "out of nowhere" for some, which is fair, I found it really interesting, as it wasn't just functioning as the usual flex from the new villain on the previous one. Sure it does look and work that way, but I also think the battle really wouldn't have worked as it did if we didn't see Zeo struggle before actually starting to take over the battle. For starters, while Cerberus did all the heavy lifting there, you have to give it to Zeo and his dad for actually becomeing as relevant as they did in such a short period of time, showing how superior Zagard really was in terms of everything to Dr. K. Then we have Zeo's actual mental breakdown. Not only did he find out out of nowhere that he had to go up against his friends because of his dad, which is already tough enough, but he really had to in order to "become huma" it's like being told you're adopted, only 100x worse 😂 like really. Who do you bring this up to? Third. There's a reason why it had to be Ozuma. The fight is basically giving us not Tyson's friend, or Zeo's enemy, but the leader of the saint shields. He who has to make sure no one gets his hands on the four bit beasts, if not without his concents, and having been Ozuma the benchmark throughout the entire season, and if Zeo was going to prove something, it couldn't just be Kane or the king, would it?😂 Last. The fight was intense AF right from the start! Even WITHOUT using their bit beasts, you could already feel the stakes were at an all time high in this one, as we were actually seeing how Ozuma, who we knew was a power house, performed against someone who wasn't the blade breakers/Tyson. Something I personally would've like to see back against Kane, but here I feel was more fitting as I'm not sure if you guys noticed, but the little hint was given earlier too. Right as the saint shields were jumping Tyson, who was the one who stepped in and actually sent Ozuma's beyblade flying? Exactly. Too long but I really wanted to share this with whomever is reading.

I like first season and absolutelly love third one but never get into second one. Whole season is basically just big organization trying to capture bit beast by using same method over and over. And its not even smart. Its always: new guy is wreaking havoc, gyus trying to stop him, guy runs to place where machines are prepared, battle, guy lose the game. I can get it at beggining with team psykick but after they defeat new enemy is coming and they are pretty much same thing. Episode 36 is perfect example. What would you even run after the guy? In the moment Max saw empty building he should be: "not again". Saint shields are wasted potential. They are trying to look scary but they clearly doesnt know what they are doing. They want to capture bit beast but only once actually tried. Only thing that made them different from other groups was that they didnt have big chunk of money and played fair(most of the times). They are not bad but they could be great. I also dont like Kai in this season. Kai was always one of the strongest. He didnt often battle but each time he did it was amazing. In this season they suddenly made him weaker or at least it looked like it. He almost never lose but draw way too much. I also dont buy his soft side. Guy is stoic as hell. It took bladebreakers a lot of time to open to them and then suddenly some no name from school with 1-2 episodes of iteraction make him weaver? I dont mind him having soft side but not like this. Only thing good in this season is Hilary. Yeah she was anoying at the beggining but she grew up to be amazing addition. She is always keeping guys on the ground and is able shut down tyson. She also perfect "watson". Somebody to explain what is happening - and so to the audience.

I only watched the 1st season so had no opinion on V-Force and G-Revolution. From the recap though, it seems like while almost everything upgraded (Story, lore, the supporting characters, etc) our main group kinda suffered sequelities, especially Tyson. The gang especially Tyson kinda keeps reverting to their s1 pre character development selves. It's kinda annoying to see Tyson always being an insensitive brash twat who'd always lash out when frustrated then have to keep relearning the friendship lesson over and over. Kai on the other hand while less stand offish to his friends, keeps going through the same motions of getting beaten, wants to quit then reconsiders when his friends talk to him. Like dude I think its been proven so many times already friends are important and you're doing fine, stop being so dramatic whenever you lose- Max and Rei not changing much, I actually appreciate. They're still both doing their best even not much has been done to them. Kenny's also solid though I do wish he was given more development. His role was forever the same but I suppose at least he became a bit of a foil to Hilary who got the most development though partly because she's the newest member so had a lot to work with. I do think they were supposed to do something more for her, aside from being the one to keep the guys together. I think she was supposed to have some special ability concerning bit beasts, as shown in the beginning when she reacts so strangely to them. But alas the plot had to move. I think Ozuma's team being the last obstacle to beat wouldve been better as he was there from the start and has a very engaging lore and reason to seal the bit beasts, among the other bit beasts stealers. Zeo was also just too last minute that no one was given any time to simmer on his plight. Actually the last tournament felt rushed, especially when we got to King and Queen. Who for some reason suddenly started not liking cheating and worked together with Tyson to yeet Dr. K, while they were forcing other bladers to fight them and double teaming them 8I. In general it feels like a mistake that they went through the world tournament in the first season since suddenly they have a second season and needs to go through all that development again. If the first season had a smaller goal, this would be better paced because going through the same big goal a second time is never going to be as strong as the first one. It also forcibly nerfs down the supposedly world champions to force the reason they have to hit the same goal again.

My biggest problem with V-force is at the end of, they decided to ruin 2 characters in order to pump up Tyson. That last match really pooped on Kai and Max. Max loses Draciel twice. Kai loses Dranzer for what reason, not to sure since this power creep is completely retconned in the next season. But they did the worst character trope which makes the main character more hated then anything.

I do agree that Hillary annoyed me in the beginning but she has been the main person to help get the bladebreakers back together whenever they have a conflict. When it comes to v-force I can't lie I kind of didn't like the changes especially with the art style but over the years it kind of grew on me especially with the blades themselves. I definitely agree with Tyson being super wishy-washy though as a character it was always just like he gets a friend he gets betrayed. A part of me still prefers the OG Beyblade especially with character development but V Force has a lot of changes that does get right

I grew up with the original, but back then I had no idea of the manga. I started to collect as many Beys as I could istead, not bothering about who's I got because they looked so cool. Over the years I started to finally just collect my favourite Bladers Beys that being Kai ❤ As I went I started collecting other character's Beys I liked too, but I still could not stop battling with them. Let me just say it was the most expensive (damn I can't spell today) hobby I've ever had 😂 having to rebuy Uriel and Zeus. I even had the original Takara Dranzer MS but like an idiot I sold it for a cheap price and had to rebuy the red version, not happy at all. I lost my Dranzer launchers too along the way. I skipped over MF because it was so bland and I could never get into it, was brought back again after Burst was released. Gotta say Burst and Burst Turbo is on par with the original series.

Hey good on you for doing this! This swries has a special place in my heart and its nice to see someone else nerd out about it. V force had a ton of great moments and even the tyoical bbeyblade goofiness that gets more apparent was funny to well, poke fun at, although i feel like in this iteration it cpuld get particularly grating at times. I dont hate hilary but i do hate that there never felt like there was a purpose to her character than to fill the archetypical sidelined cheering character role. Kenny was already great on the sidelines and she just felt like extra space. She did get better in g revolution though, but i honestly still cant recall a moment where the show was made better with her inclusion. Sorry hilary! All thw antagonists were super intereating though my favorites gotta be the cyber ones. Rays fight with sarina and wyatt straight up fucking dying in kais arms still sticks out to me as a Moment in the series. Even zeo had his charm, i actually really liked his dynamic with tyson and tysons goofy ass speech about how he was real and valid even if he wasnt human is strangely endearing to me. One thing i did HATE about this season and really, every season after the og one is the artsyle. It makes them look like generic chibified versions of themselves compared to the varying designs with different height and body types we had in the first season. Here they feel so short to melike WHY. It just feels generic and makes all the designs a lot less unique. Thanks for the video, ill be looking forward to the one on g revolution since that one had a TON of interesting ideas and concepts that honestly kept me really invested.

I agree she did grow the most. she was defiently the glue of the team. at a young age i went thru the motions along with others at that targeted age group Hilary was way to bossy in the beginning and their shared history made tyson clash with her. also her butting in early on pissed him off since she really didn't know beyblading even if her ideas were actually helpful as seen in the training. I dont remeber if she is better in G revolution but she is def a strong team member . They beyblade breakers didnt really change i loved all of them. tyson really did follow a loop buti loved him as a protag because of his big heart, best shown when he fights in defense of this friends all of them. early on he was put to the brink for hilary and kenny. then he would after betrayals from Kane and zeo. be so hurt but he did the same song and dance. i think the 3rd season character designs are defintely the best. The tournaments are what we remember i think all the seasons got their strengths. the battle music was something serious. rise above the storm , im not going down etc.
