Hanamaru becomes a full time Sakuga animator for Beyblade Burst

They do a special series directly adapting the Burst manga, every special chapter (except that gag one since it would infringe of copyright in the world of anime since its not as interconnected as Corocoro) every battle taking out, every plot line and battle beat by beat using the same exact writing and tone's.

I personally thought it was Hikaru and Hyuga vs Shu and Lane.

They've been out of the Target audience (8) for quite some time. Valt is already 15.

Well yeah that’s why I said “the wouldn’t be close.” At least they are school age with Silas being the farthest at early post secondary which isn’t too bad. It’s after that point that the characters begin to take maturity bumps.

But truthfully they've been well older than the age group for quite some time. All the way since season 3. Valt was 13 there. 5 years older. An 8 year old and a 13 year old wouldn't even be in the same school. Not here in the US anyway where a good many fans are located.

It’s more or less still carrying the general idea that they are still kids at heart or at least can appeal to kids since they haven’t reached the maturity of full grown adults. And that’s also the point of the new characters each season, they are younger to appeal to younger audience as Eclipse Force said.

As we've seen they have a mix of ages in the show so I don't think there current age is a valid reason for them not to come back next season given that they've already been quite a bit older than the target audience for quite some time.

They are still teens nonetheless though, hence why they would still be able to appeal to younger audiences. Sure they can can have them come back with only a 1 year time skip to solve that issue but it doesn’t change the fact that it’s repetitive and clearly not what the majority of fans want. They can do much better than just bringing back old characters.

The problem is they appeal to the older audiences. Thats why they have characters that are so old. They could have made Free 12 is Evo but they made in 14. They still have to have characters that appeal to older audiences.

I understand what you mean, but at this point most of the popular returning cast is just too old to go back far behind. Sure they can keep this up for a while but eventually they will have to revert to a newer beginning and have those characters age instead.

The main thrust of your point was their ages. I have no problem with it. Unless I misunderstood it seemed to me you didn't think they should come back because of their current age, that's the point I don't agree with. The fans not wanting them back for another season for some other reason is a separate discussion.

People that are 15 rn have plenty of time on their hands to keep watching for know and beyond. you'd be surprised at the amount of 20+ Beyblade fans. Never too old.

It’s not to say that they can’t come back but since they can just have a smaller time skip to still have them at a younger age but haven’t them as fully matured adults just doesn’t do it.
