It worked. Thanks

In the new opening they showed EVERY SINGLE BEY from important to filler, excluding the most filler beys. This is probably the last season

I don't know why they did this instead of saving it for the Final Season but Burst is getting one last season before it ends. Maybe it's the end of the Current Legendary Bladers Generation but I can guarantee that we're getting a new season. We got a chart thingy from Hitro (I'm sorry if I spelled his name wrong) and it shows when the date when the series started and the date when the series ended and it says Burst is ending in 2023 so that means we're getting one more season in 2022 and it'll end in 2023. So DB is not the last season but the next season is.

You still can't be certain about it until we get actual official confirmation of a new season. It's usually around this time but with every passing day, it's becoming less and less believable, especially after that intro.

That was our confirmation of another season. They literally straight up said that Burst will continue till 2023 and the Intro never confirmed nore denied that we're getting another season. The next season could be a New Generation that takes place something like 20 Years Later or maybe even 100 Years Later. The intro and the "Final Valkyrie" Speculation could just mean that Burst is going into a New Generation with new Bladers and maybe even new Legendary Bladers. Yes, it could mean that Burst is ending after DB but I highly doubt it since the Poster thing we got from Takara Tomy or ADK Emotions or whatever I just know it's official says burst will continue onwards into 2023

That brochure or whatever it was meant the products, not the anime. Since it said Takara Tomy which is the company that creates the products, and that just means the products will end until 2023. There’s nothing that’s confirmed about the anime so you saying that there’s another season CONFIRMED is just going to put a delusion in peoples minds.

I'm still pretty sure I heard and have information that we'll get another season but you're right. This debate is just going to confuse people and until we get more information about another season and Burst ending we should wait to discuss this but we should also wait to get more information that DB is actually the last season because the Intro like I said could mean that there is going to be another Generation of Burst Beys but like 20 Years Later or something like that. So I'll be willing to put this debate on hiatus but I'm not necessarily giving up on the fact that we're getting a new season but we just gotta wait for more information. For now we should just put this debate on hiatus until we actually have Solid Information that we're going to get another season or not

Exactly, I can’t wait for confirmation since I’m dying to know if there’s another season or not. I don’t really care or watch any other anime’s except for Pokémon since I think that’ll ruin my perception on shows in general(too garbage anyways. I can watch them but I really don’t care about animated trash stuff). But I can’t wait for more news. This is officially my favorite site and I’ll bring up conversations about Beyblade if nobody brings them up such as the one I started with the opening.

Ok, so lately there's been all this talk about whether will be getting a season 7 or not and personally, I think it should end. The thing about burst is that everything is a lot more realistic and down to earth compared to the previous series so the past couple of seasons have really just been the same thing with some moral lessons sprinkled in. It's a lot harder to make a compelling story when there is nothing to work with.

Not bad eh?

I'm sure they've something crazy in mind for the last season (if there's one)

It’s been great and it shouldn’t really end but that’s my opinion.

Prediction for DB: Pain does beat Rashad and gets his revenge, but eventually gets whooped by Bell around episode 48-49 (you know, just like Cho-Z when how Aiga took down Phi and then fought Valt in the final episode). Then Pain disappears and then the long awaited Final will be Bell vs Rashad.
I don't think we'll have a new tournament in the future, it'll be much like Cho-Z where half the episodes Bell tries to add gears upon gears and try to master Perfect Belial and then beats Pain with that. In the meantime, I think Pain will take down some legendary bladers e.g. Free & Lui (either onscreen or offscreen) to really show off his power. If there was a tournament, it'd be among everyone except Rashad. The winner of the tournament will get to challenge Rashad for the No 1 blader's spot. Sadly, I don't think we'll be getting a Valt vs Rashad rematch. Maybe he'll just try to change Rashad if he becomes a bad guy but again... These are all just pure speculation.

If what I stated were to be the case for the next 12 episodes, then I would say that while it would be very interesting and intense but it'll be a complete do-over of Cho-Z. Also, they would wasting some great characters like Shu. Man never really got to show his power, he was just there to help advertise Astral and Ultimate Valkyrie. They at least should've gave him a spot in the Dynamite Battle tour where after Lui, Shu would be the final legend blader which everyone has to compete to face off against. But oh well, I hope the final season redeems Sparking and DB.

Rashad isn't the No. 1 Blader in the World. That's still Valt. I'm pretty sure they're going to have a rematch too. They've been kinda building up to it.

Technically he is (for now) because he took down Valt Aoi who was the no 1 blader and world champion. In episode 40, WBBA made the strongest team and they gave the leadership to Rashad. We all know, he's eventually going to lose the no 1 spot but until someone beats him, he will be considered the current leader of the Beyblade World. And why I think they won't have the rematch is because their battling part was removed from the latest opening and with Pain recently debuting, the center of tension is shifted to somewhere else. If they do get a rematch tho, I bet it'll be towards the very end of the season.

He isn't though. He never defeated Valt in a rank or title match and he was never once called that so Rashad isn't the No. 1 Blader in the World. They made a new team made up of some of the world's strongest bladers, not all of them. They called him the leader of the wbba. Which is a position usually occupied by the wbba director. So Rashad's new status seams largely figurative. There was even a rather funny scene from the prior episode reminding us that Valt is No. 1. He's still the world's top blader. As far as the rematch is concerned, they've been building up to it on both Rashad and Valt's sides. When it will happen I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure it will.

I probably should've emphasize what I meant by "The No 1 Blader". Valt and Rashad didn't compete in a rank or title match. Yes.  but what I meant by Rashad being no 1 is that he proved himself to be better than Valt countless times. First being in episode 31, then in episode 34 and lastly in episode 37. Valt couldn't beat him once in a battle so he is technically better than Valt for now and in a literal sense, he could be "considered" the no 1 blader for the time being. Even if Valt doesn't beat him, Pain and Bell will. Either way, until Valt faces him with Ultimate Valkyrie, we can't say that Valt is for sure better than Rashad even tho he's still the world champion.

He isn't better than Valt, especially when you really examine their last battle. Rashad didn't get a single point off of Valt. Rashad was most likely going to lose their match. Had it not been for Valkyrie's damage, he would have taken the L. Valt manged to cause Raphael to Burst with a damaged bey. The only reason the match went to Rashad was because Valt couldn't continue the match. Rashad won by default not by merit which is why he was upset with getting the win that way.

I'm not gonna lie, I wanna see Rashad vs Valt competing for World Champion Title in the last episode. I know that's impossible because Bell has to be in the final in some way but that would be the most exciting final ever. I almost wish the whole series was centered around Valt and Rashad as that would've made it much more epic.

Fair point. But you gotta consider that Valt has been doing this for 6 years and he has a lot of experience with Beyblade compared to Rashad who doesn't have a ton of experience but still managed to go toe to toe with Valt. With that in mind, we can be certain than until their next match, Rashad will gain a ton of experience battling Pain and possibly Bell and will be even better than the last time. So it's only a fair matchup. I too believe that Valt was, is and always will be the best blader in the entire world but some things like this, you just have to accept. I'm not saying I'm right about Rashad being better but it's just my opinion.

Well he did train under the world's top blader. Rashad isn't a rookie. Also any "experience" he gains from upcoming battles won't really put him over the top, we really can use that as a measure. Valt isn't going to suddenly stop training, especially in light of the fact that he's planning on battling Rashad again. Valt will already be better than he was in their last battle due to the fact he recently got a more powerful bey, which isn't even awakened yet.

Even though Valt is going to win in their next battle, Rashad can still go toe to toe with him. When battling Pain and Bell he probably will go over his limits and become even better. Valt will ultimately stand out the most but all I'm saying is that until then, at least in the anime world Rashad will be seen as a hero and the next best blader. You know, after he broke savior, in episode 38 Hanami says, "we thought Valkyrie's age was over, but no, it's still in the game" or something like that. Which means everyone was convinced that Rashad is overall better than Valt now. But those Ultimate Valkyrie broadcasts did change a few people's perspective. Listen, all I'm saying is that until someone beats Rashad, he'll be seen as the current best blader since he has a lot of fans now.

---

Btw only those closer to Valt knows that Valt has what is takes to take down Rashad. But for the beyblade fans around the world, they still think that Rashad is the better one.

Small theory on db finale but since the op and ed has a lot of scenes with valt rashad and bell facing each other and the fact that the hybrid stadium is a 1v1v1 leads me to belive that this arc will be mostly a 1v1v1 and the finale is valt vs rashad vs bell. As for payne ig someone will beat him before the finale if this is true

Yes Rashad can go toe to toe with Valt, but I don't think the idea that people overall think Rashad is the best blader is really accurate. What Hanami said was they thought Valkyrie's career was over because Valkyrie had broken. He didn't know that it was going to be revived, that's why he said that about the Valkyrie's career, not him thinking that Rashad was overall better. He has a lot of fans, but no he's not seen as the world's best blader, and he isn't.

Just watched the latest episode with subtitles. Wakiya says the the WBBA. has formed a new Bey Club boasting World's "top" bladers. Everyone including Hannah expected the first leader to be Valt. But they chose Rashad. So according to WBBA, Rashad is the best pick because he's the strongest now.

Some of the world's top bladers. The Blading Legends are the world's top bladers and they're not part of that bey club so it doesn't include all of the world's top bladers. As the World Champion and Number 1 Blader in the World, Valt would have been there if that was the case. Also Valt would never have left BC Sol, not only is he simply loyal to his team, he's also the team leader. Rashad was likely picked because his team won that big battle against Bell's team, or the fact that Rashad isn't already leading a team and is popular. So its not because he's strongest, because he isn't and already established, Valt would have won that battle and now has a more powerful bey.
