At most, I can see some more old characters making a brief cameo but otherwise, we aren't going to get anything past that.
Like, what are the chances of characters like Kensuke, Daina and Wakiya returning and getting evolutions? In my opinion, not at all. We're most likely going to fill the rest of the cast this season with new characters, which is fair, though I wish we got the aforementioned three characters back.
There was a popularity poll regarding who were the top 20 characters in Burst were. Kensuke wasn't on there, but I think Daina was. I forgot who was on the list....but maybe that could play a role?
IIRC, Daina was 4th place and Wakiya was 5th place in the popularity poll but polls don't always mean anything.
For one, the popularity poll happened
very early during the Cho-Z anime's run so the audience didn't get time to know the current main characters.
Plus, we've also got another batch of characters from the rest of Cho-Z and GT that I think TT would pick to return over Daina.
Also, they always have that one rule where each season can only have two beys with the same capital letters on their names as each other, never more than that per season. For example...
- God/Evolution has two S' (Spriggan and Satan), two K's (Kerbeus and Kukulcan), two C's (Chronos and Chaos), two R's (Ragnaruk and Regulus) etc.
- Cho-Z/Turbo has two S' (Spriggan and Salamander, no Satan), two L's (Longinus and Leopard), two K's (Kerbeus and Knight, no Kukulcan), two F's (Forneus and Fafnir).
And yeah, you pretty much get the idea. They never have more than two beys with the same capital letters on their names as each other
per season (unless you count GT having three A's with Ashura, Achilles and Apocalypse but Apocalypse had no GT Chip so it doesn't count).
Now take that into consideration, we already have Drum returning for the next season and his bey begins with the letter D. That means we can only squeeze in one more D in the next season and it's a choice between Deathscyther and Diabolos, which one do you think TT will pick to have an evolution for next season? It's most definitely gonna be Diabolos, since he is a significant rival for Drum in GT, meaning we won't get a Deathscyther evolution at all (nevermind the fact that TT hates the Deathscyther series anyway). And if not Diabolos, it's probably going to be a new bey or they might just have Drum as the only D Bey in the next season.
It also means no Salamander, so if you've wanted an evolution to that, well then too bad...
