It takes away from originality of the work. If I wanted to see Valt again, I would watch older seasons. A lack of originality is a sign of poor writing especially when the entire point of getting a new protagonist is to give the audience something new.

¨But Drum was smarter and more strategic than Valt during his season.¨ 
Yeah and that really isn't a factor that is big enough to change my opinion, I see far more similarities than I do differences and the differences that do exist are miniscule and are effectively non-factors.

¨Even IRL, different individuals have similar personalities but I won't call them off-brand of each other.¨
Burst is animated media designed to appeal to viewers while real life is real life so that comparison doesn't really work. A new burst protagonist is meant to appeal to the audience in a different way than the others and Drum really doesn't make that cut.

I know Burst is an animated show but simply disliking Drum because his unoriginality is kinda eh imo. I trying to say that maybe Burst was trying to realistic by showing that there will be characters/people will similar personalities regardless you like it or not. The same can apply for irl for Youtubers in the Youtube community saying that there will be Youtubers with similar personas to their famous counterparts, which makes people calling them off-brand or a rip-off. This aspect is what makes me like Drum despite being a "copy". And besides, tbh 11-year-old Valt felt pretty "cliche" (a word I hate) compared to Drum IMO: spiky hair, and acting dumb (no insult).

I suppose that's fair to say, but we all have different standards and expectations. If I see a new protagonist, then gosh darn do I expect some originality.

¨I trying to say that maybe Burst was trying to realistic by showing that there will be characters/people will similar personalities regardless you like it or not.¨
I mean, I am 95% sure that was not of their intention whatsoever. Not to say that it isn't true that similar personalities occur in nature but they definitely didn't plan for that. Either way, it seems clear that it was a bad move based on reception.

¨The same can apply for irl for Youtubers in the Youtube community saying that there will be Youtubers with similar personas to their famous counterparts, which makes people calling them off-brand or a rip-off.¨
But the idea of calling a youtuber a poor copy of another based on content similarities is a ridiculous claim while doing the same for two animated protagonists is not. The personality of a protagonist is something within control of the writers so it is their job to make the characters appeal to the audience. This means creating new tropes and characteristics-furthermore, it is not an ethically incorrect claim like it would be in the case of the youtuber analogy.

¨Valt felt pretty "cliche" (a word I hate) compared to Drum IMO: spiky hair, and acting dumb (no insult).¨
To be fair, they are both pretty cliche in terms of personality. The whole overly enthusiastic and aspiring attitude is generally one of the most overused characteristics we see in anime protagonists (or any protagonist really).

So, usually, Disney Now let's u watch beyblade episodes without disney but it switches to one episode once a week Example: Say if  Episode 13 was free that week on Disney now next week should make Episode 14 free I hope I made sense

When I first saw Fubuki Sumie, I thought that this dude was supposed to be Shu 2.0 but with swag. Like he was Shu but cooler imo. I also thought that he would be the third strongest blader behind Aiga and Phi but boi I was WRONG. Cho-z did him dirty making him look like a side character than one of the main characters of the show. And I thought he would be important since he appeared in the very last episode of God to train with Shu. Like, Fubuki had A LOT of potential to be one of Cho-z's iconic and strongest bladers but no. And the thing that annoys me the most is that Burst fans call Fubuki a "discount Shu" or "Shu rip-off" whereas we have Delta who's exactly that. I still like Delta but come on he's literally Shu: red eyes, cool demeanor, dual-spin balance type Bey, and hard-working. Tbh, Fubuki should be a legendary blader (I DON"T CARE IF ANYBODY SAYS OTHERWISE) and got a Sparking evolution in the manga. One more thing: HE GOT TRAINED BY SHU, ONE OF THE STRONG BLADERS IN THE WORLD.

I completely agree with everything you said. Fubuki was done dirty. However, I would like to point out that I've seen many people calling Delta a ripoff Shu as well. Also, any ripoff Shu is better than the original imo simply because they have less fans.
