That's cool. I actually didnt even know that there was a manga for beyblade. Do they have a completely different story line from the anime? Just wondering because the pokemon mangas do, they even have different characters.

I thought there was a manga for every Anime..

Yeah, I guess there is.

That leaves 3 people who didn't get a star fragment. Do you think they will get their Legend status from the Earth or Gaia as Dunamis (sorry for misspelling) said as the first ancient bladers first acquired their power to battle Nemesis? Or did I miss something that would have included the 3 extra people?

There are 7 planet beybladers; Pluto isn't a planet and there probably isn't going to be an Earth beyblade.

Anyways, Julian's (Julius) voice in the dub is terrible.I can't stand it, he justs sounds like an annoying kid, not a powerful blader.
Dub made a win moment

"its like we;re at a teeny bopper concert with fangirls"

"yeah only difference is this guy has talent" Ok thats not HOW it was said but still WIN man WIN also Julian....YOU MORON ItS PERSEUS NOT DESTROYER and last time i checked he used medusas head on his FATHER who wanted to kill him....moron...
Why is every girl in every Beyblade series helpless and annoying? At least Pokemon had Misty and Jesse! Heck, Digimon had Sora and Kairi (who basically saved the entire day).
How dare you forget Dizzy!!!!!!

Dizzi is useless. She gets kidnapped on several occasions.
It'd be awesome if Madoka had her own unique Beyblade, not counting the Mad Gasher 145F though.

Something with her own engineered 4D bottom and whatnot.

Dizzi(y[?]) is insane. What other bit beast has sarcasm and can make super sweet beyblades based on past experiences.

Madoka does nothing like that. She just looks at her screen and says "Wow! It can spin in two directions!" and doesn't even tell her teammate that's actually beyblading; she only tells people on the side.

I totally agree with this...Hikaru was ok but she's retired now.
Beyblade really needs some decent or really good female characters. I think Beyblade needs at least one female main character who can actually Beyblade...unlike Madoka...

But the series is aimed mainly at boys so more boy characters are used...
but girls can be aimed too...for the hot ones Eee
It would be nice if Death Quetz owner was a girl
He or she resembles one, for sure.
Apparently episode 129 is going to be cut to only fifteen minutes, with fifteen minutes of talk-show probably unrelated to Beyblade ? For sure there is a notice in a few places that it is only going to be fifteen-minutes-long.
Isn't it weird how like Ryuga, Kyoya, and Gingka all have like a weaker midget with them?

Ryuga-Kenta
Gingka-Yuki
Kyoya-Yu

It would be cool if they had a triple tag team battle with these three teams.
I was watching the older series Bakuten Shoot Beyblade - sorry, I'm just more interested in watching the Bakuten series than the Metal Fight series XD

Anyway, everytime I look at this screenshot and scene, I just cannot seem to pull a straight face; especially when I look at Rei XD

Yes, it appears to be so. When it was first announced, I was worried the new B-Daman show might effect Beyblade somehow as last time the most recent B-Daman trilogy started, it took Beyblade's airing slot. Beyblade currently airs from 8:30 to 9 AM and it looks like the new B-Daman is going to be airing from 8:45 to 9 AM. Makes me wonder how it's going to effect American airings and whether or not we'll get a fourth season this time around.

I don't know why the series has been cut to 15 minutes, is it because of the bad (not terrible) ratings it's been getting? Or something else...:\

It's sad that Metal Fight Beyblade is getting slot cuts...it never happened with the latter Bakuten Shoot series... Unhappy

It did not happen with Bakuten Shoot Beyblade, but they drastically ended the series right after the third season too. Japanese fans are still thinking there are chances for a new system in March 2012 ...


But really, we concentrate on the fact that Metal Fight Beyblade is reduced to fifteen minutes, but we have to wonder something else too : why is B-Daman not getting its own damn time slot ? Is it going to be a battle between two shows where the more popular one will get the actual full half hour ? This is the sort of thing that just never happens on any other channel in the world anyway.
Oh no, I wish to never see a day like that, never..

Hopefully that system comes out, in March 2012. Man, 'Poke-Mon' never ended, hopefully Beyblade will not either

Well it is unusual to hear that two half hour anime series are being shortened to 15 mins and tbh it is pretty stupid. Maybe they are fading Metal Fight Beyblade out and B Daman in as opposed to last time where they abruptly stopped Bakuten and started B Daman.

Both shows deserve to have their own slot rather than share one.
Please don't be the sign of the times please don't, so far the mistakes made in the past had NOT been repeated.

FFFFFFFFF......
It is really weird because someone from DigInfo News was telling me that Beyblade was selling very well in Japan, and Adachi Takafumi reassured me that the manga was doing fine as well even though Beyblade had less and less space on CoroCoro's cover.
Hey guys is it just me because I have a feeling that kenta going to be a legend blader due to him showing legend aura.

I think this is mostly because it's not new and even though it's doing well, not the number one thing in there, probably not even top three next to things like Doreamon, Pokemon, and Inazuma Eleven, but as those are pretty much the hottest properties in Japan, it doesn't mean it's doing bad I think.

There are a few shows that air 15 minute episodes in half hour blocks. The Megaman EXE anime moved time slots so that it aired within a show called Oha Colosseum, which is a 45 minute program that airs two 15 minute episodes of different shows, one three minute episode, and then the rest of the time is spent on hosts of the show doing skits and antics. But the Megaman anime also did this when a story arc was finished and it was starting its Beast story arc. It's strange that Beyblade is going to do this in the middle of the series. I think the current story arc is going to get a really abrupt finish in time for the new length or the show is going to be retooled to work better.

I imagine Takara is doing this not because Beyblade is doing bad, but because it's doing so well. (and trying to save money by not renting time for another full half hour) They're using the established Beyblade name as a lead in for this new show. If the B-Daman show fails, Beyblade will probably be back to its full length at some point, if it doesn't, then the staff will probably find some way to make the stories fit the new time structure better.

B-Daman has never been huge since the 90s, the last series only did okay and introduced a brand new cast with the third show, so I guess they want to associate it with something as big as Beyblade. If this turns out to be the case, I hope it means we'll get a seventh Beyblade series in six months time, either with this cast or a new one. Though three years is plenty of time to tell the stories of one cast and it would be interesting to see a new series with characters that were created to work best within that 15 minute allotted time.
