After seeing this episode, and follow the series through a whole year, I feel like my faith in Burst is even higher this time! :)
Here are my thoughts about the episode:
Just like in the manga, Lui won the battle. I was kinda expecting this, since I saw what happened in the manga, and knowing the anime was following the same direction, it was almost certain it would happen. Thing is, maybe due to the time limit in an episode, I was waiting some double bursts at least, it didn't happen, and it didn't make the episode worse of course. I love when they don't push the battles to a longer impossible situation, like any other Beyblade series in the final episodes. I was a little afraid of getting something "special", "fantastic" for the last episode, maybe they were thrown in another dimension, as someone said before. Fortunately it didn't happen. LOL
Now that we know Valt is growing, and Lui quickly copied Valt's High Jump Shoot, causing the crack on the stadium floor, thanks to L2 heavy weight probably. Now the thing of V2 bursting because of the ckack is perfectly possible. I've seen battles where the Beyblade tipped on the tornado ridge and bursted because it was, somehow, barely holding on together. Not a problem here. The scene where Valkyrie explodes over Longinus is amazing!
Also, one of the best things in this episode, and maybe this series, is that they show us winning isn't everything, Valt grew up a lot during all those battles, he learned a lot during all the series, and now he's stronger than ever. Not only at launching his Beyblade, but recognizing that a loss is a loss and we can't do anything about it. Great character I must say. The only thing I really missed was that part, that we saw in the manga, when Shu recognizes Valt's strength and goes away, making their rivalry even stronger for the next season. That was unfortunate we didn't have in the anime, but it's a detail.
I really loved the episode, and the series as a whole. Very nice mood in every episode, literally saving my weeks. It just made me feel good about watching it and now, after a year of this series, I can only say I want more of these good vibes, of these awesome battles and very nice characters. :)
This is probably one of my favorite episodes so far. :)
I'll miss Victory Valkyrie high speed, Jet Shoot and all. Haha ^_^
