At least Yugo served one good purpose. If you have a bunch of main characters in a team, make sure they get fleshed out development & training, otherwise they're screwed !

The only thing Yugo did was make Daigo look back at his choices, making the poor guy almost quit Beyblade. And apparently, that wasnt even anything in the end. Daigo went back to Beyblading, making Yugo’s anger at him a little unnnecessary. But yeah, Yugo needs a lot more
Not to mention, his battle with Wakiya was super disappointing.

And it’s wlso the same for the original Beyblade too, that why I think thy all exist in the same world, but different time periods.

Well if they were all in the same universe (which I think they're not) that Burst to Plastic to MFB would make the most sense to me.

It's just not entertaining to me and I lost motivation to watch these episodes. 11 mins doesn't suffice me it needs to be longer more info on the characters and beys. No returning characters besides Valt, ik its only been 3 episodes but they are set weirdly. E. G ep 1 it starts of with Valt with slash Valkyrie then just skips to Drum with Ace dragon. Same with fumiya its just shown differently I don't know how yo explain it. GT is the worst comparing to the 2 episodes from past seasons of bb

The series is just very different in general. I like the characters, beys, the designs... but I agree with you about the 11 minute run time. It's just not that satisfying.

I think that watching 2 episodes at a time changes the experience though. I re watched episode 1 and 2, one right after another, and it was much better.

I agree, the episodes should be a lot longer
Binge watching the whole GT season would be a pain by the time it ends ahahaha
I'm really enjoying how GT resembles the first season for now. Drum so adorable and besides the Beys being beautiful and really awesome, I like the simpler battles way more than those we've seen in the final arcs for God and Cho-Z. GT is just what I wanted to see in Beyblade again, just like the first Burst season.

I still dont get why Hearts has Hearts for a name though. Just being honest here (since Hearts was supposed to be half-evil; but his name, Hearts, is more adorable than scary)
Sorry for quoting you so late. But I guess Hearts's name is kinda related to Phi. Ф, or ф is a Greek letter known as Phi pronounced as Phai which is used in Maths and science and stands for 'Empty or closed', which goes perfectly with Phi's character. He is a shallow and a very closed character with a closed and corrupted Heart. Now, to show the contrast between Phi and his brother, the writers maybe decided to make them opposites, If a person is closed, the opposite for it will be open or an open hearted. And Voila! There you go! 
But, you are right, Hearts' name doesn't go with his outfit or character design per say. But it kinda fits when you compare Phi and him. Phi is a very evil person( at least that's what the anime wanted him to be, so go with that) so Hearts becomes a little caring, which is true, because he cared for his beyblade more than Phi for sure, and was worried about Phi in the whole dP arc. 
Would like to know your thoughts!

i agree with you 100% the new anime is feeling like season 1 which is my favourite season very simple

In season 1 he was soo cool
In season 2 he was just a laughing maniac ,but still defeated any blader with ease until he battled free
In S3 he comes back in a different outfit which I hate,the worst looking and performing Longinus I've ever seen ,and loses to aiga in EP 15.Then in EP 28 xhaka ties with a even stronger aiga.remeber in God bladers cup Lui crushed Xander??I hate his personality change and everything.That cool attitude in S1 was why I liked Lui
Well losing to aiga is nothing wrong,his blading days was over
Atleast he could have come back in EP 51

Xhaka won that battle since he bursted Achilles. then Aiga got all serious with that dark resonance. He tied later on, but the true winner is Xhaka in my books.

Thank you for this explanation!! It was well-thought and quite meaningful. I am glad that I got a response like this ^^ Its still a nice name though

I havent watched Turbo in quite awhile, though. I remember Phi's name being pronounced as "Fye" (rhymed in Pi) in the show?? But in math and everywhere else, Phi is pronounced as "Fee." Not sure if my brain is tricking me into having false memories lol.

Can you explain this for me?

Thank you, glad you liked it. Ф or ф, is spelled as 'Phai' or as you said 'Fye'(It's the same thing) in the anime too, the name is spelled as 'Phai or Fye' but ths spelling is Phi. In maths or science too, it is not spelled as Phai or Fye. They both are spelled same. If you remember, there was confusion for Phi's spelling when he was introduced, and this was the reason, everyone thought it would be Phai, but it ended up being Phi. 
That's the problem with Greek letters, when translated to English, they create a lot of problems.
For example: χ, is a Greek Symbol used in Chemistry, it's spelling is Chi. Now, your brain will trick you to pronounce it as 'Chi' but you know what it's pronounced as? Kai!!? Oh man was I shocked when they taught us this. Hope this helps! And if you have ang other questions related to this, fire away!

To elaborate, Im talking about the pronunctiation (def: How to say a word), and not the spelling. Some darn cool facts, though ^^

I am sorry, I can see where I messed up my post. Well, it is pronounced as Phai or Fye only but is spelled as Phi. If you listen carefully, or rewatch an episode where Phi is being called out( Aiga vs Phi should do, the ending where Aiga hands dP back to Phi), you can hear them saying Phai.

Ah, that explains it. In math (and everywhere else) I keep hearing people pronounce it as “Fee” lol
Here's a polarizing question: would you guys have preferred Sora to be in Gan Gan Galaxy over Yu?

for me nope yu makes more sense for me and is a better blader. plus it works well with tsubasa  , sora was fit for zero g as a main just like ryuto the would've been good in zero g.

As a character I like him a bit more than Yu, though Yu is still cool. However if I had to assemble the strongest bladers in Japan (barring Ryuga, Doji, Ryu and Kyoya), they were the perfect choices.

True. Huh, I wonder what happened to Reiji now.
Does anyone here have any idea on how the Special Moves in MFB are written in Japanese? I liked the original audio better than dubs, but the names of the Special Moves keep eluding me, and Google Translate hasn't proven very useful in my endeavour either.

yea looking how strong ryuga and kyoya was it was the best choice to put yu,  tsubasa and masamune . can you imagine a team composed of ginkga,  ryuga and kyoya that's a overkill they wouldn't even need a sub since the battles would be over on the second round lol.

Oh yeah that as well, a team of those three would be overpowered. Add Ryu as the sub member and they'd wreck instantly.

But the reason I didn't include them was because they're not available (not counting when Ryuga stepped in last minute)

Go to a character page on the wiki, click their special moves, and on that page, they should have the japanese kanji/hirogana/katakana. Copy the Japanese text, go to google translate, go for Japanese to English and you should be set.

It would be interesting if Gingka had a team, but he was the only top tier blader (I'd imagine if the others weren't the three we got and they joined other teams instead, it'd probably be Hyoma, Kenta, and Sora (or even Reiji)) but they had to push themselves so hard to catch up to Gingka and the world that they'd regret quiting....
AND MAN THAT WAS A DARK THOUGHT.

Although Kyoya gaining an upgrade from the dark power would be freaking awesome.

I doubt reiji would join he doesn't look like a guy who would follow ginkga he looks more like a someone who would rather be a team that envloved ryuga, Kenta hyoma and sora would easily join.if hyoma was use correctly he would've been a top tier character,  I mean he was supposed to be on gingka level when he was introduced and put up a good fight against kyoya but was eventually drop which was a shame cause I think he could've brought more to the table.  To me gingka was kind of the only top tier on gan gan galaxy  an a way  he always finish the big boi the others had to grind. Tsubasa who normally shouldve been the 2ND strongest had that dark power going on from him ,yu was half good not as good as on s1. masamune started strong but When he fought strong bladers he mostly get the lost.  Which was a bummer gan gan was like wild fang the have one super top blader another top blader that gets the first point before the super one finish it and the other are just their and gets a few moments but was mostly their.

They could give Hyoma more special moves and a training from hell to compensate. Even the DS game did so.
I wouldn't count out Gingka, he needed work to defeat half of his opponents.
Tsubasa was handled well.
Yeah, what bothered me about Yu is that he never used Last Judgement Inferno after losing to Masamune. Weird right?
Masamune tried, plus he beat Chi yun and Nile in the rematch. Klaus was a tough opponent and Zeo drugged on Arangement so I won't hold those against him.

Yes I agree about hyoma he could've been use more one of the thing that I would've done is after reiji had destroy and rekt rock Aries I think it giving burn fireblaze I mean after that performance of that bey with Ryo it would've been a good apportuniry to past it to him and let burn fireblaze to still run wild such a shame. Yes ginkga wasnt always almighty which is a thing I like about him. Yea yu never use last judgment inferno for some reason remember when his special moves were almost busted and was a threat. You have a fair point with masamune. But yea the defently could've done a bit more for some of them.
