very good battle and a good ending to the burst series

Shame we didn't see Phenomeno or any of the other characters (like in the MFB anime or the Burst manga) but the animation and battle itself was quite nice. Regardless, thankful for Hiro Morita and the anime production team for working hard to produce over six years of content.

Since this is the last episode of Burst, as far as I know at least, I decided to watch and review this one to see how it holds up.

I'm going to be fair and only give my thoughts on it based on being the final DB episode, not based on it being the final Burst episode ever. I expect this to wrap up DB well, not the whole series overall.

We get a short backstory to Bell's demon king origin. It's okay, it is nice to actually get this detail and I wish they did it earlier, and for longer too.

The battle was pretty good, I think it had a lot of cool visuals that we've come to expect in these finales, but I did like the icicle/stalagmite type setting Bell and Rashad flew around in, it was a pretty fluent and action packed scene. I don't get why they had an icy glacier type setting though, it feels a bit random. I would expect a firey background or heavenly cloud background to fit the two, but whatever.

The battle had elements of MFB, especially the ending part where Raphael and Belial became streams of energy and clashed, reminds me of Kerbecs vs Leone, it was cool to see. Now the special visual effects, while cool, also don't feel as long as usual, which I guess gave more focus on the actual battle, but still. The second round has a nice conclusion, though seeing Raphael burst felt more ordinary compared to... for example, seeing Phi's bey explode in light.

The final shot is basically everyone celebrating Bell's victory and all that, standard stuff. Bell, Rashad and Valt end the episode getting ready to battle, and everyone does the countdown as the three launch their bey, well except for Payne because he's the only blader from this season not to appear again.

But yeah... the ending is as expected, although I am glad Bell didn't end it with "I am the demon king" or anything like that again. This one has a better end scene than Chouzetsu's only because we see more people around to watch, where as Chouzetsu just ended the scene with a zoom-out of Aiga and Valt. We also at least saw Lui too. This end scene is arguably even better than Sparking's meh ending scene for me.

Overall, not a horrible finale, I mean it did it's job wrapping up DB and had a good battle, but it was just a fairly standard post-God series type of finale, nothing super amazing, but not awful. I can understand why people would dislike it since this is the final Burst finale ever, but I'm only judging it by it's own merits as being a DB finale.

It's weird that Burst's anime has ended after so long, six seasons, which is an insane amount, the amount of work put in cannot be denied, and I'm just glad it kept Burst going for so long.

Even I have to agree

Incredibly disappointing ending, just like the whole season. The extra chapter from the manga showing other characters wasn't adapted, so the WHOLE BURST SERIES ends but only people who appeared in Dynamite get an "ending" (it wasn't any form of conclusion either though so whatever I guess.)

Rashad supposedly finally becomes able to properly connect with Raphael... only to lose to Bell for no reason. There were some signs they were setting up Rashad to be the true "main character" of this season and if he ended up winning it'd have been actually interesting. But oh well, not like this one battle changes anything. Irrelevant tournament and irrelevant battles.

Overall, Burst ended at Cho-Z for me, with GT being a nice OVA-like after story. Now, to forget Dynamite even exists so I can actually enjoy Burst again..

You thought I was going to miss the finale too? Nope and I'm back to give my thoughts on the last episode of DB..ahem- *of Beyblade Burst*.
For the final episode of DB, it's clearly one of the best finales. I'd probably rate it below Cho-Z but to see Lui after so many months was the best part for me.
But as a finale of the entire series, yeah it's kind of disappointing. They could've done and added so much more to bring back all the nostalgia but apparently ADK emotions have forgot about the hundreds of character that made this series what it is today.
Either way, we should appreciate it since it's the last episode and I'm going to miss Beyblade Burst soo much. I was kinda late to the party as I only started watching burst around 2 years ago but it still stings me to the heart to say goodbye to it.
Now let's give you the episode review that absolutely nobody asked for. Rashad has grasped his old persona again and Bell is just the usual Bell. Kinda crazy they've gone from friends to extreme rivals to being friends/rivals again. But I guess that's how every Burst protagonist-antagonist relationship works. This finale was different compared to other finales of Burst. Because this time around, we had two good guys fighting it out rather than one evil guy and one good guy. That's what made this finale very unique. The battle itself was jam-packed and extremely fun and nerve-racking to watch. 1v1 battles have always been the best so this battle tops the sparking one by a wide margin imo. I absolutely loved the color theme they decided to choose for this one too. Bell and Rashad fighting it out in kind of a greenish tint atmosphere was lovely. Although Raphael bursting like that was no fun to watch but we all saw it coming I guess. We got a bunch of scenes of Lui and Free that I'm probably gonna rematch tens of times just because it's about the last time we saw them. They didn't do anything crazy with Shu tho so that's kind of concerning.
Lastly, all good things must come to an end, right? Let's sit back for once and thank Burst for the wonderful 6-7 years they delivered to us. It made most of our childhood. By the time the next series comes, we'll probably all be grown up adults lol. Fun fact: DB was the only season that I watched from the beginning to the end in real time so it will always have a special place in my heart. I'm not even afraid to say that it's the best season for me because I got to watch and experience it in real time. Anyway, that's probably my final review for any episodes and I'm thankful to all the members in the WBO community, y'all are amazing and have a good day. Sayonara>

Episode review

Spoiler (Click to View)

So this episode is basically just bell vs Rashd for like 7 mins with some juicy backstory.

Animation

On the animation side this episode provided us with tons of great visuals like that tone shift in the ice realm and bell backtory suppoerted wit a lot of dynamic angles and a on model character making it a feast of an episode also storyboarding shines in a lot of areas here making the episode doesnt look plain or simple.

Here are some of those juicy stuff







Highlights

Bell backstory in this episode was really a welcome additton it makes the "Demon king" title so have a reason exist and i just love the interaection here between bell and jinemon obviously the placement here is a bit odd but none the less a great scene very heartworming and great overall. i was really afraid that this backstory was going to be ditched out since the manga has done this like a few monts ago.

The battle

The battle here is really fierce and really fun. I really love it when they goes to this Ice world where its basiacally a metaphor for the stadium they just went all out like its a DBZ fight lol. Tho this battle doesnt really feel like a "final" battle imo, it wouldve been better if the final battle was done like the manga but yeah for what we got the battle really delivers.

Final thoughts

Overall this episode as for a DB episode is probabaly the best one but for a Burst finale episode yeah it doesnt live up to the hype. Kinda feel like this battle couldve been on like ep 48 or 49 so that the last four episodes could just be for the franchise finale but it is what it is. On the end of the day its not a great closure but please by all means don't harrased the animators and staff they have worked 3 years straight with only a week break.

This has been me Needforspeed and i greatly thank Mr.Morita and the staff for the great series see you until we meet again some day.

i think we can all agree this was a better ending than zero g.

We need more fan fictions from now lol

*Insert Kirby’s Triumphant Return->Milky Way Wishes Credits*
RIP. Now where do we go from here?

Well its une end.  To think this will be my final anime review after 6 yr huh. Now the battle was good with good animation few good Scene,  now the ending was whatever but it fit this season. Now did it fit the entire burst season nah. I said before ill say it again the manga ending is miles away better than the anime ending Where they show what most of the characters abd what their doing. Db anime for me overall is a 3/10., anime overall its a 5/10 while manga is a 7/10, But for the franchise as a whole its 6/10 we had some highs and some lows but overall it was an Amazing ride. My thx goes to Morita for that and it was a Pleasure to have been with all of you guys while being free it was fun being here. Although I wont be here that much anymore (ill drop by when beys get reveals of course as i'm a collactor). So see you around everyone stay safe and enjoy life Peace

if i had to pick between the anime or the manga i would pick the anime. the manga was promising but you could tell that it being monthly was holding it back and there was some big cracks in the db manga. like basara ranzo and ilya being useless and doing nothing to the plot. valt made ultimate only to lose. shu just battled once then left and did nothing to the plot

i think we can all agree this was a better ending than zero g.

That's not exactly an accomplishment though. You can say a lot of seasons ended better than Zero G. In my honest opinion, I personally disagree that DB did it better than Zero G, there's probably a good reason why we never got the fabled Season 7. It's fine if people don't agree with me, but let me explain my thoughts:

For me, while DB's has the more entertaining and visually stunning final battle than Zero G, Zero G had the more satisfying final ending scene than DB, it was more respectful to their entire cast, because we at least saw a small picture montage of some of the characters in MFB that didn't appear elsewhere in Zero G (Kenta, Ryu, Hikaru, Sora, Kyoya, Ryuto, Tetsuya, Team Wang Hu Zhong, Team Lovushka, Team Excalibur, Team Dungeon, Aguma, Bao, you get my point). Zero G at least showed us their worldbuilding. I wished DB had a slight picture montage of some past characters, but we never got that sadly. It doesn't even have to be all, but maybe more major characters like Rantaro, Ranjiro, Sisco, Daina, Cuza, Kensuke, Aiga, Drum, Fubuki, Delta, Amane, Asahi Bros, Lean, Phi and all that, and it just had to be a picture montage, no animation needed.

I don't think DB had a particularly bad finale, but I honestly don't think it's better than Zero G's finale, which also isn't that good for me. The DB and Zero G finales both had good and bad qualities.

This

The most someone can argue is maybe DB had a better animated final battle, Zero-G's finale wasn't the best animated nor does it come anywhere near to the prior seasons. But narratively Zero-G does way better, it pays respect to the world and it ends up setting up a new generation of bladers that I always like when they kinda show it off. 

I also prefer Kira's development at the end way more than I do Rashad, like Zero G quite honestly gets overhated it was not as bad as people say it is, it isn't perfect but I much rather rewatch Zero-G than ever rewatch DB. 

At the very least for all the boring that came out of Zero G and DB, Zero-G had more substance to it that allowed to to be somewhat tolerable

Honestly I have to agree. As an entire season, I would much rather watch Zero G than DB. I have enjoyed Zero G a hell of a lot more than DB. Make no mistake, I'm not saying Zero G was good, but I think it becomes the butt of jokes too often (only surpassed by Beywheelz/Beyraiderz) to excuse some mediocre Burst seasons (Sparking/DB), but we shouldn't have such a low standard where we need to resort to saying "at least it's not Zero G". I agree that Zero G gets too hated, despite me also finding it mediocre.

I agree with your points that Zero G had more substance and a more respect to it's whole narrative.

Final battle wise, DB is WAY better when it comes to the actual beyblade battle. Pegasis Bahamdia vs Saramanda Ifrit was very disappointing and forgettable, it was generic and bland. Here's the thing, this final boss sounded so cool because it uses the power of Pegasis, it should be such a cool fight at a high grandeur, and it ended up bleh. I will say, the battle aftermath with Kira nearly falling to his doom was very tense and I liked that.

Since it's the final episode of burst as a while I might as well comment on it. I expected a pretty average db episode that felt a bit nicer than usual, and that's exactly what I got. Not much else to say other than good animation.
