1) Should have called it Beyblade Burst "DawnStrike" instead of QuadStrike or any other name that doesn't sound too similar to QuadDrive.
2) Our Last Night's theme song for the final season is one of the greatest Burst themes ever. Are they the first band to perform a Beyblade song? Or was there any other band before them that did it first? I kinda hoping for more of Our Last Night for future Beyblade themes.
3) The protagonists and the Legends are treated fairly in this season, and there's no plot armor in the battles. (Except for those haters out there who are just going babbling and arguing with their "plot armor" nonsense in all seasons.)
4)Pri Forsythe's character really developed from being a pawn of her brother, rising to be a blader of her own. (No hate, but Pri Forsythe fits better as the main protagonist of this season and not Bel). The Forsythe siblings are what makes this season interesting.
5) Returning characters like Naru and Aiger's family was great, but they should have brought back Toko , Nika with a reunion of Valt's family scene too.
6) Season's story is a total 100/100. For a Hasbro season, QuadStrike is far better than Rise, Surge and QuadDrive. The ending with everyone together is satisfying enough, no need for a continuation, it's over. (Unless that mysterious boy that went to space comes back and...) Nah, no Season 8, it will never happen.
Beyblade Burst is over.
1, QuadStrike is a good name, like Titaniumninja74 said it's a continuation of QuadDrive.
2, the opening theme was one of the best ones.
3, is debatable, Bell & Pri's losses kinda overshadow their wins. Pri had a lot of difficulty beating high tier bladers despite her buffs and having 4 beys and Bell kept losing to Pri very badly, she basically got the better of him almost everytime they fought and the same can said for when he faced Xander & Aiger(but both of them are among the worlds best bladers so it makes sense there). They still got some decent wins in the last leg of the season but by that point it was too late for it to mean much.
4, I can agree Pri would have suited the MC role better for QS over Bel but I personally preferred Bel as MC over Pri. Plus with QS being the sequel to QD they kinda had to make Bell MC again. They just should have written his character better and or given him more relevancy in the plot/story.
5, would've been nice.
6, I also think QS is better than Rise, Sparking and QD(especially Sparking and QD)but I didn't agree with everything that happened this season and at times the story felt kinda slow and more like filler than plot. The ending tho was incredibly well done and satisfying though, I don't even mind the cliffhanger.
