Ok. I have to adit, but this is the Beyblade I grew up with. Yea yea, I was 13 when it came out, but I am 20 now, so that was a lomg time ago. I remeber being absoulutly obsessed with this show. I mean I had a CRAZY obession with it. I can talk on and on about how much I loved it but it will go on for too long. Anyway, this show consits of 3 season, 1 movie and 1 spin offf season that was cancelled.
The three season were Metal Fusion, Meatal Masters and Metal Fury. The movie was called Sol Blaze and spin off was shogun steel.
Season 1 was called Beyblade Metal Fusion and stared a teenage called Gingka Hagane as he traved the country to become the strongest blader. On his way, he meets freinds, forms rivials enimes and has to save the world and all. I must say, at the time, this was pretty much the first anime show I ever watched, (well second, as I watched Sonic X) and was truly inpressed with the visuals, soundtrack and story. They were much better than the tyson sereis which played the same 8 songs every episode for 3 seasons. This sow had an actaul soundtrack with a orchestra and all. I love the characters and beys and story. The show does pstart up ok, then get a bit slow in the middle, but towards the end of the season, it gets really epic, heck even violent. This is when the first national tornament will declare the worlds strongest blader.There are lots of laughs, crys, unexpected twists and just a great show over all. My only issue with season 1 was that it does go on for a bit too long. i mean 51 episode for a season is pretty long, but thats ok. It's all for character development. yea, 6/10.
Season 2 was called Beyblade Metal Masters and is a much better season, in my opinian. It is set a few months after the first and Gingka and the gang prepare for the WORLD Champianship were the the world isn't happy that the national tornament in Japan declared the worlds strongest blader instead of holding a worldchampians ship. So they hold a world champianship and ever blader around the world team up in groups to represent their country. This season was very similar to season 1 and 3 of the orignial Beyblade were they travel the world, but Metal Masters is a much better one. I really enjoyed this season, as the characters face new obstcles outside and within their team. The last 8 episodes, do get very interwsting, however, but it felt like season three, beyblade g revolotuion of the original series, where they have a champianship, it's over and for the last 8 or so episodes do something else. Only this time, the something else in Metal Masters is much bigger and badder than the gang has faced before. The ending of this season was in my opinian, the weakest of the show. They didn't really explain too much about the thign they were dealling with and a WHOLE BUCH of plot holes. but it's interesting. Season 2 deserves a 7/10.
Season 3 was called Beyblade Meal Fury and is the third and final season of the Metal series and is in my opinian the DARKEST of the lot. The first two season did feel similar to the original series in some way, but this season is totally original and out there. I mean, it's all about anceint beyblades, gods of destrucution and all that jazz. It sound a bit surreal when on paper, but exucutted really well. Season 1 and 2 were quite fun seasons. Season 2 was very enjoyable, but this season is very serious at times and very unexpected. Certain character get complete developments in this season and there is so much drama. I will admit that ths season felt a little bit like season 1 and a bit like season 2, where it started of slow, like season 1. But Gingk and the gang are travelling the world again, like in season 2, only this time, there are looking for the 9 legendary bladers who have beein chosen from destiny to defeat the ultamate evil Nemisis. Now, as much as I love this season, it has WAY TOO MANY PLOT HOLES inti that I like to think about. I mean, this new evil seems to have come from know where, but it is revealed why we haven't noticed throught the previous seasons. I did love how certain events of the past all tied up for this one season. and the second half of this season is the BEST throought the whole show. I mean, I was loving it so much. And the battles are show much better, coller and violent than the prevoious seasons and has a MCUH better ending that the original beyblades. This seaaon felt much similar to season1 were certaincharacters return from that season and the battle fight are simialr in parts. Is it the best season in the show. Yes and now. Yea, it's a great season, but there are WAYYY TO many plot holes for me to like. So, on that note, I willgive it a 7.5/10.
Overall, the Beyblade Metal Saga is a decet anime and pretty cool. :)
