Hasbro didn't "correct" Takara Tomy's spelling, this is being ignorant of the mechanics of Japanese.

Katakana is phonetic by nature, so translations are fluid. Words written in Katakana can have multiple translations because they're not words with literal meanings, they're spelling out the pronunciation of words from other languages.

レーン can be "Lane" as much as it can be "Lain", "Rain", or "Lean". It's the same situation as セイバー ("Saber", "Savior", “Saver”) and ロード ("Lord", "Load", “Road”); these are all valid translations. Lean is not an “incorrect” translation, but the translation chosen by Takara Tomy, despite how uncommon it is.

You can even see the reverse of this situation with Bell/Bel, where "Bell" is more commonly used to translate ベル, but Hasbro changes it to the less common "Bel".

Let's get this out of the way. Yes, Dynamite Belial breaks, toooootally didn't see that one coming... and is L/F gear breaks... so can he ever use those again? It's essentially your usual "main character bey breaks to make way for mid evolution"... or it would be if there wasn't more, but there was more here.

Yeah, after that, we see Ilya smile in which I swear is a sinister way... I mean damn that's pretty cold. Anyway, we see Bell trying to visit his avatar again, but the avatar seems lifeless and doesn't move... that's actually pretty dark for Burst and considering Bell did interact with him regularly, this is far sadder than any other times a main character's bey avatar is lost. They also show just how utterly depressed Bell is, going around his usual life not being his usual self, really sombre in time, I especially love the part where he looks at the stadium in the dark, and walks off quietly.

We have a timeskip to see Basara has that Bahamut recolour... I kinda wish they showed us that and how he got it, but whatever. I like the idea that Basara didn't even stick around with Bell, as he went with Rashad and Ilya, so there's a possible theme of betrayal, which is interesting to explore, and I like it. It's also interesting how Rashad is hailed as a hero despite destroying someone's bey and laughing at it. Ranzo actually tries to comfort Bell too, so credit to him for being a bro.

This is a really good episode, there are some annoying things like not explaining Basara's Bahamut recolour... not to mention him losing so easily in it's on screen debut, but overall, it's way better than I expected, because I normally groan at these "bey breaking" episodes since they tend to feel copy and paste. However, this one gives it more emotion and care for story than usual, it reminds me of Chouzetsu episode 37, an episode I also enjoy. This one is a good episode, and I'd say is as good as Chouzetsu episode 37.

That's why the Dangerous blade has Metal and Rubber integrated into it. Makes up for those two gears.
