I respect your opinion, but Pax, Pri and Bell are definitely not above Aiga, Shu, Drum and Xander; and Kitt is debatable to an extent as well. I wouldn't put them in the top five just because they finally beat a few of them once.

Aiga wrecked Bel bro.

When did Aiga beat Destined Belfyre with the new launcher. You know, Bell’s latest form?

Pax, Pri and Bell just have better feats. If you want a more detailed response, look at my replies to Phantom Legend and God Dragruler in Random Beyblade Anime and Manga Thoughts.

Oh, I understand.

Do you guys think Pri can beat Aiga?

Do you guys think Pri can beat Aiga?

No. A Pri with Flame didn't stand a chance against a glowing Ruin. 

Aiger put up a fight against Ruin in it's glowing state.

Aiger would beat Pri very easily.

Fair, but there lies the possibility that Pri was simply shocked at how powerful Pax was, which makes sense since she was beating people like Drum and holding a candle to Valt after he evolved Valkyrie.

Why are the quadstrike chats filled with power scale arguments lately, atp it's clear the power scale is not clear and y'all should just let it rest.

Anyway imo, quadstrike overall wasn't half bad of a season. Not amazing, the pacing was terrible and it definitely got kinda boring at times, but pri and pax stole the show and I had fun with this final arc. Not a bad way to end the burst generation.

Can't wait to see the reactions to another cliffhanger ending lmao.

I'm gonna keep this short cause of technical difficulties: This episode was absolutely wonderful.

Spoiler (Click to View)

Pax is already my favorite Burst antagonist. Him projecting his desires onto Pri, leading to him abandoning her and handling it on his own, and then him getting over the memories of his Blading career, taking off the cosmetics, and truly connecting with Pandemonium....... It's all absolutely masterclass. I could go on and on about it, but I don't have the time to. Pri is the other half of this equation, and her resolution was also really good, but I don't have anything new to say. Compared to Pax since her arc took place over the whole season, while Pax's only kicked into overdrive now.

As for the finale aspects, they were great. The cameos fit into the end of the episode very well, it was awesome seeing everyone again. Also, I have to point out that this final arc's visual quality has been stellar. This episode looked great, and all of Pax's BANK animations are some of the best in the entire franchise.

All in all, 10/10.


Also, because other people are mentioning it, who tf was that blue-haired kid lmao. I get that he was supposed to represent all the bladers, they directly cut to panning shots of a bunch of other kids after they showed him, but still. He seemed way too overdesigned to just be an extra. Who knows to be honest?

My final ranking:
1. GT
A personal favorite of mine, I really liked the character work this season.
2. God
Objectively the best-written season, really good all around.
3. QuadStrike
The cleanest season. Every aspect was handled very well with no loose ends or missed potential.
4. Sparking
Not the best season but easily the most fun, the tournaments this season were insanely hype.
5. Season 1
Actually really solid, just not as impactful as other seasons.
6. Dynamite Battle
Same issue with Season 1, lack of impact. it could've had more but didn't due to missed potential imo. I do like this season a lot though, despite the very low ranking.
7. Chozetsu
I like the ideas this season has and some of the precedents it would set, but man this season just sucks. I dislike the writing and it's over-bloated with characters. At least the beys are cool.

By the way, I just want to point this out: I love the Lodestar Battle Tournament Arc as much as the next guy, but I feel like saying almost everything before it is trash is quite misguided. The only reason this climax hit so hard (for me at least) was that the show took its time exploring characters and building them up prior. I get that not everything was super entertaining, but without it, the final resolution would fall flat in my eyes.

My ranking:

Absolute masterclass season. That is all.

2. Sparking
Everything really resonated with me this season, from the realism the brothers showed to the internal struggle Lain faced.

3. God
Valt's journey hit home and is unforgettable. And Shu's theme of stoicism adds depth which I love.

4. GT
This season made me feel the most consistent emotion. Crying from some of the scenes.

5. DB/QS
Both seasons I loved because of Bel's journey and Pri's identity crisis. Arguably the strongest seasons with the strongest character interactions.

6. S1 Burst
I remember it being very good but I haven't started my rewatch on it yet so it's at the bottom of the barrel for me.

Strongly disagree, but I respect it.

Have you guys ever noticed that the blue kid matched perfectly with Hydro Poseidon which conveniently came at the start of the QS toyline and is water based? Here's my crazy theory :Blue Kid was originally supposed to be in an early draft of QS where there might have been multiple elemental beys. More reasoning towards this is that each bey has elemental power via resonance or other means as stated in episode 17 of QS and that must mean that each bey has at least one element to draw upon. We see this most clearly in beys like Wind Knight.

I know this is wishful thinking, but it would be cool if we got a Beyblade Burst Movie that focuses on that character. Also, Burst is the only Beyblade Saga without a movie.

That’d be nice, but what would they even do in the movie? I just don’t see a possible plot that fits in with the power creep. And that kid’s supposed to resemble the audience, so there’s a fair chance he doesn’t have crazy nonsense like Advanced Elemental, Dark Power, etc.

Any of you thought of some missed opportunities that could have made QuadStrike better?

I think a reunion of Valt with Toko and Nika and his parent should have happened in the anime like Aiger got his whole family returned.
