Why did you get into Beyblade?

I got into Beyblade during Valt's Burst series. I had gotten a ton of Beys and gimmicks and it keeps growing. I have Beyblade X now and did my first comp and was very happy with it. I did ok. Not much of a victor but it was fun! I built my own personal Dragoon out of my Beyblade X tops so I'm pretty cool...
I got into it because when it first came out when I was younger I found the anime and thought it was cool, I wanted to try it out so I got a stadium and a few Beys for myself and my best friend. Over the years I got in and out of it until X where I went all in.
I got into beyblades because I enjoy the action. I also came from TCG games which can cost over thousands of dollars just to play a deck to try to compete with it just drop down in price after a ban list. Beyblades can be played at so many age groups and fast to learn.
Mr cousin told me what Beyblade was and since then I starting getting Beyblade .
Came back here after 3-4 years of inactivity. Cool to see people still commenting on this dumb post I made in 5th grade
got into Beyblade by chance by running into the Metal Fight anime on Netflix almost 13 years ago now. hooked ever since
metal fight was the first time i found out about beyblade, i liked it bc the ttheme song was awsome and i wanted to play it. then...burst era......i saw the anime and said "WTF DID THEY DOO" then i didnt find out about x era until last year and i fell in love with beyblade again, where the cycle repeats it self, i watched the anime and said "this is a bop" and bought some beyblades too lul
Hello all! Rookie here. I got into beyblade because I wandered into the toy aisle at Walmart and I saw Beyblade X and Bakugan. I had no clue to either of these toys and Bakugan also has a top style feature. I did my research and here I am! I fell into the rabbit hole and I’m so intrigued with the sport. I’m glad with the choice I made!

The Beys are awesome! I dunno how I missed this when I was younger! I’m glad it has a huge following and has this active community!

SeaBass90, thank you for making this thread! it withstood the test of time! More and more people are getting into Beyblade X and it’s exciting! I got my friend into it too! It’s cool to read where everyone got their start!

I’m invested and I hope to meet some of you in upcoming tournaments!

Rip-On!
They've been hosting at my local store for a year, as a Yugioh player bored of the meta I tried out X and fell in love, now I want to host in my city.
My friend literally just showed me a battle and I was hooked on beyblade after that.
My story is boring as hell. A friend shown me a bey around the start of the burst era, then i got my own, then the rest is history
i saw the metal saga anime on netflix and at a second hand market recognized them, much later i saw a toy store selling their old stock of sealed metal master beys, so i got a bunch for relatively cheap
I got into burst through aiga /aiger aka choz/turbo
I saw the quad drive anime on Netflix, then found beys at target.
When I was a kid, it was definitely the anime that got me into it and the toys that hooked me. Their designs, especially from V force - HMS, were beautiful. As an adult, I haven't watched the new Anime at all, but one Christmas my Niece asked for Beyblades and that made me look into Burst and then X and the competitiveness of the X Scene is really drawing me in. That and (some) of the blades are really pretty too. Haven't properly played, but I actively consume Beyblade content again and it's made me a bit nostalgic for the OG days.
In summer camp my camp mates brought beys and one of my friends let me borrow one to be specific hasbro version of evolution satan so after that I started watching the anime
5th grade recess, a kid brought them and I had lots of fun, after getting my first two (slingshock beys) I was hooked ever since, left beyblade after rise (surge-Quadstrike) didn’t appeal to me, and X brought me back
One day coming home from school my Mom surprised me with a Beyblade from burst era. Soon she got my brothers some and then we got the arena. I took a break and lost a few but now with X I buy any I can afford!
