To be honest, most of us saw his downfall coming eventually, he was built up to become the potential final opponent, and every final opponent in Burst (not counting Valt in Chouzetsu) are villainous or jerks in some way. Rashad does have a nice guy attitude at first, which makes him a bit more different, but being a major rival, he was either gonna be a Delta like character or the main "villain".

I get what you mean, but I think for Ghostfreak, despite his freaky nature, we never expected them to become evil, as we weren't aware certain forms had their own mind. It's only when we look back on all the original series appearance of Ghostfreak where we sorta see hints and even bits of dialogue (where Ben as Ghostfreak always said stuff or acted way too out of character even for Ben) which foreshadowed him being something else. Burst was easier to see coming because it was following a somewhat strict story formula.

But So the story ends off with Bell claiming the title of the world champion while I believe Valt keeps the number 1 rank? i might be wrong but Isnt the title no longer tied to the ranking since the creation of the New ranking system? Since Aiga was world champion while Valt was the number 1 ranked? Since  Valt was called the legend of legends in the final chapter.

Aiger being World Champion while Valt held the Number 1 rank was only the case in the Surge anime. Valt was both in the manga.

Ohh really? Thats interesting. So does that mean Bell is champion while Valt is the number 1 ranked since his name was still legend of legends in the final chapter? Or am i missing something

Not sure really. I didn't see all of the translated chapter panels. But that would make sense. All I know is I prefer the the anime send off for Valt by leaps and bounds.

Since its was only a title match then yes Bell is only World champ. Both title and rank 1 are separated from each other as well an the manga you can hace both or not.  Valt ending an the manga represent what Valt always was he never cared about being #1 or World champ those were secondary what Valt really care about is Valt played beyblade for fun while playing with his best friends thats how Valt is. Besides Valt will most likely lose to Bell the same way but it doesnt matter cause win or lose what Valt is searching is fun. Theirs more than winning an beyblade thats Hiro message

Yea i agree with that 100 percent. Everyone has their moment to shine in the world but at the end of the day blading is just about enjoying yourself and making connections with others through blading and that the love and enjoyment for blading will never be forgotten as it will always be remembered by the older generation and will be passed on to the newer generation of bladers as well. Which was definitely a good message to end of burst with. I was just asking because i was curious that was all.

Valt cared about becoming #1. In the first episode of the dub he literally states that “Me and Valkyrie will become the Strongest Team in the World” which is basically what the meaning of a World Champion is. He wanted to also have fun on his path to become the strongest so it wasn’t just a coincidence that he became the #1 Blader in the World. Everything he did in S1 and S2 was to propel him to become the Strongest in the World. The God Cup was to decide the strongest Blader on the planet so if Valt didn’t care about becoming the strongest then why would he even accept the invite? If I’m being honest, Valt deserves to be the #1 Blader which is why it ticked me off when Aiga just came in and stole that title from him. Valt’s Goal from the beginning was to become the Strongest. It wasn’t just accidental or a confidence or that he didn’t care, it was because he worked for his Goal everyday and learned from each battle he was in.

I don't think that point about Valt is altogether accurate. From the very beginning of Burst, episode 1 in fact, he mentioned he wanted to be the best in the world so to say he never really cared about being Number 1 isn't really accurate. Yes Valt wanted to have fun while battling, but I think there's a misconception that Valt didn't care about or wasn't trying to reach the top. He was. It was his goal. Also I don't think the anime is going to end the same way given how they've structured things for these last few episodes. Episode 51 is Bell vs Rashad which will most likely last into episode 52 which has been the case for every single season since the beginning aside from Turbo but even then the battle with the antagonist lasted two episodes so I think we can expect the same here. Whoever wins that battle wins the tournament. There's literally not time for a battle with Valt. Now it's possible they could try to squeeze something in between Valt and Bell, but given how short these episodes are o don't think its going to happen. Its possible but I don't think it will happen. So in the end I far prefer how the anime handled Valt's send off. The anime did a good job of honoring the character with a very good showcase in his final battle of Burst. Nicely done.

Anime: Yea the anime did pretty good at handling Valt’s send off. As he gets to keep both the World Champion Title and the Number 1 ranking. The send off battle against Rashad also did a good job of honoring Valt as “The Legend Of Legends” the Worlds Top Blader who always find joy in blading. As this battle shows off Valt’s True Bond/power with Valkyrie as well as him helping Rashad rekindle his joy for blading. This was also a good way of Ending the rivalry between Valt and Rashad as well. And with Valt and Rashads rivalry ended. Bell and Rashad can finally settle theres ending the season on a high note. Hoping thats how it ends with the final battle being against bell and rashad.

Manga: The manga also did a good job, as it shows that blading is about having fun and connections with others, that blading will passed down through future generationsWhich is what Valt pretty much does which is symbolized by the final page of him saying “lets all blade together!”. kinda dont agree with the final all the way. I like how the manga ended and i love the ending message. But i kinda feel like Valt losing the title was a bit meh. Bell never talked about the title (unless he has) yet gains the title. im ok with Valt losing But bell gaining the title feels kinda out of nowhere. Since Bell and Valt dont have a rivalry that sets it up. Plus the final chapter was ultimates manga debut and Valt was training with his friends and Family’s To awaken Valkyrie just for him to lose like that. I feel like it would have been better if it was left to interpretation to fit the message of its all about fun dont worry about the winner. But at the end win or lose Valt still keeps The Number 1 Ranking as the legend of legends and that no matter what Valt will always keep that title as he’s the worlds top/strongest blader and a inspiration to bladers all around. But i still overall like the ending of the manga as well.
Yea thats a lot honestly wasnt expecting to type that much.

I agree with mostly everything you stated here. Summed it up well. There's was no reason for Valt and Bell to even battle. As you mentioned they didn't even really have a rivalry. Just a few tweaks (no Valt vs Bell battle, and especially no him getting the title) and this would have been perfect for me. I liked the ending scene with Valt at the bey club and seeing all the prior characters. So far the anime is giving Valt a far better send off imo.
