Random Beyblade Anime and Manga Thoughts

In 2002 they did not come out regularly ? The whole season was based around "bit beasts", so from what I remember they were shown way too much.

As what Kai-V said, V-Force is the battle of bit-beasts, not beyblades. Flashes came out from the bit chip, and the rest is for the performance of bit-beasts...

Probably just a whole bunch of coincedences but:

There is a Beyblade manga called Saint Seiya Bladers. Now in the unrelated Saint Seiya manga/anime (also known as Knights of the Zodiac), the main character, Seiya, uses the cloth of the Pegasus. Ginga in Metal Fight/Metal Fusion uses a Pegasus Beyblade. One of Seiya's oldest rivals, Jabu, has the cloth of the Unicorn. Which just so happens to be a Beyblade as well. Seriyu (isn't this also the name of Dragoon in Japanese?) also has a very similar back story as Ray's in G-Revolution, with a similar teacher design (also this back story is hardly original).

It's likely just coincedental stuff, but slightly amusing none the less.
I am wondering if anyone knows where to find pictures from G-Revolution that were used before commercials that shows the Beyblader, blade, and Bit Beast? I am specifically looking for Tyson and Dragoon MS and Brooklyn and Zeus, any others would also be appreciated. I spent an hour or more searching for each picture to no avail. Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you so much Kai-V!!!! I greatly appreciate it. I do have another random thought... Why is Tyson the only person with a left spin blade?
Hahahaha!

I don't like watching raws (even though I can understand a fair bit of Japanese, I always feel like I'm missing something) and the English subs are slow and the dub is terrible. So I decided to watch the Cantonese version. Best decision ever. I prefer laughing at bad dubs than cringing at them any day.

Are you talking about the dub of Metal Fight Beyblade ? Because I think it is seriously a very good dub. I would have to agree if you meant Bakuten Shoot Beyblade however, hah.

Being a Chinese, I would prefer watching raws to Cantonese. Horrible dubs...you would understand if you were a Chinese..

From what I understood of your posts, you have not seen that many episodes of Metal Fight Beyblade ... You probably have not seen all the battles.

G Revolution does, but Metal Fight Beyblade really does too ... You should not compare series before seeing at least all of the broadcast episodes ...

Hmm... is it? I watched up until they introduced Benkei's backstory. I cringed at his voice so badly, I actually had to stop watching.

Because almost right after "half way through it", you will be totally refuted. I know, I watched the episodes. I even posted at least twice, after watching an episode live, that nobody could say that G Revolution had better battles anymore. It really is not true.

In my opinion all the voices match the characters and the Japanese version very well, except Ryuuga's and sometimes Ginga's.

so it takes like 55% of the series for it to become "as good as the g-revolution or better" in your opion?
gingas voice reminds me of lynce from bakugan somtimes the only voice i cant stand though is benkies dont know why

Yes. Bakuten Shoot Beyblade 2000 also had to be introduced at first, and even then the battles were not that intense ? So, Metal Fight Beyblade has to be thoroughly introduced, but already the matches are good after that. This is only the first season, for your information ...

Really? I can't stand Benkei's voice.
I've been pretty impressed with the English voiceovers up until this morning when I finally heard Ryuuga's. Really? You give him that whiny, ear piercing voice, instead of something deeper like in Japanese? I put the TV on mute and went back to sleep.
Well his voice actor is a woman that's why.

Not all women have awful voices hah. Also, I think what is at fault here amongst Nelvana is that they as a matter of fact chose a female voice actor over a male one, which is a very weird decision.
