Welcome to the world of beyblading at tv.com. It is intense and exciting. Imagine two tops charging at each other with magical creatures called bit beasts emerging from them! This show follows a team of beybladers named the Bladebreakers! They travel the world including China, America, London, and even Russia on a quest to become the worlds best beybladers! Will they succeed?

After the World Championships occur, the Bladebreakers have gone their seperate ways, but new unknown teams begin appearing on a quest to claim the Bladebreakers bitbeast. They must reunite to protect their bitbeasts, but will they fully succed. The answers will only be revealed in Season 2: Beyblade: V-Force. Be sure to watch the adventure unravel.

After keeping their bitbeasts out of harms way, a new World championship tournament is announced, but there will be only 2 members per team. this causes Max to go to the All-Starz and Ray to go to the White Tigers, plus Kai just can't make up his mind as to where he will be. Needless to say there friendship will be tested and tried as each Bladebreaker goes on a quest to prove why they are the best beyblader around. Can the Bladebreakers keep up their winning ways when they've been divided against one another? Be sure to catch season 3: Beyblade: GRevolution to find out what will happen to the Bladebreakers. Terms:

Beyblade: A top that is used to battle opponents with. Parts of a Beyblade Attack ring: The Attack ring is the ring that makes most of the contact to the other Beyblade while battling.

Weight Disk: Keeps Beyblade balanced during battle.

Blade Base: What the Beyblade spins on during battle.

Bit Beast: A Magical creature that gives the Beyblade more power. (ex. Dragoon, Dranzer, Galux, Grazzly, Trygle, Wolborg, etc.) Mystical powers lie within the Bits for those who can evoke their special energy. The power of the Bit Beast comes from ancient beasts, such as dragons, bears and monkeys that come to life within the Beyblade and in turn create an incredible fighting force making these unique Beyblades virtually unbeatable. Those that do use their special power become exceptional combatants. Can you activate your Bit Beast?

Characters

Tyson: Tyson is a bright young teenager who's not afraid to speak his mind and in so doing, he seems to get into more trouble than most boys his age. Even though he's not very big in stature, he is strong willed and very little seems to frighten him. He's curious and at times will act in haste when dealing with some of life's little dilemmas. Although Tyson is not a born leader, his magnetic personality and self-confidence seem to gravitate people toward him. Although he is not the leader of the Bladebreakers, he is probably the main character of the whole plot. He is a magnificent Beyblader with his bitbeast Dragoon. Dragoon and him work well together and because of that they win the World Championships! But can Tyson keep his title as the number one beyblader in the world? Kai: When Kai first appears, he is portrayed as a cold hearted competitor and the ultimate nemesis of Tyson. As the leader of the Blade Sharks, he and his gang use their superior skills to win (or should we say steal) their competitors' Beyblade equipment. But after Tyson challenges him to a battle, the two become team mates. Kai joins the Bladebreakers and is the leader of the team. Kai's bit beast is Dranzer who is very strong and powerful. Together they are a force to be blading with! Kai soon trades and stabs the back of his old team mates to join the Demiltion Boys. Kai gets Black Dranzer which steals everyone's bitbeasts. Eventually he turns back to the Bladebreakers and they win the World championships in Russia.

Daichi: Daichi is a member of the Bladebreakers and is very mysterious. He joins the Bladebreakers in the third season. He first was one of their enemies but joins them later in the season (like Kai).His Bit Beast is Strata Dragoon! Together they are powerful and destructive.

Max: Max is like a brother to Tyson and is the best friend any kid could have. He is bright, cheerful and always ready to take on a new Beyblade challenge. Max is a true strategist and when it comes to battling he is a strong competitor, always looking for a new angle or tactic to win. He is a master of the defensive move and even more interesting, his style is completely opposite to Tyson's. His bit beast is Draciel which once belonged to his grandmother. Together they are very good. His mother is the captian of the All-Stars and also helps the Bladebreakers defeat the Demolition Boys and win the World Championships. Ray: Ray is another member of the Bladebreakers team. He may be quiet, but beneath his low-key demeanor is an incredibly confident young teenager. Ray always looks before he leaps, especially when it comes to Beyblade battles. He was once a member of the White Tigers and got controls the almighty Driger, his bit beast. He has some problem with his old team but after blading with them and explining why he left they became good friends again.

Kenny (aka The Chief): A self-described nerd, Kenny never goes anywhere without his trusty laptop. That's where he has amassed every known statistic on Beybladers and their Beyblades. Kenny can call up in an instant a player's ranking or, with a few quick keystrokes, a detailed analysis of the mechanical workings on any Beyblade in existence. Although Kenny possesses zero talent in the athletic department, he is a valuable asset to his teammates, and he begins to learn how to beyblade with the best by studying them. We see the skills he's developed in Season 3. His bit beast is Dizzi. Dizzi got trapped inside his labtop by a freak power surge accident. She helps Kenny/The Chief, however she is not in G-Revolution.

Hilary: Hilary goes to the same school as Tyson and Kenny. She likes to help Kenny out alot and travel with the Blade Breakers. She has no knowledge of the sport of Beyblading when she begins, but she learns about it by hanging out with the Bladebreakers (ex."Go beast bitty thingy" to "he could see your bitbeast"). She also has a little crush on Tyson. She really wants to see a bit beast. She couldn't at first but eventually she does. She wants to help but she usually can't. Theme Song:

Picking up speed running out of town going head to head that's your way of life your gonna fall down get proud but you'll get back up again that's beyblade! Spinning it out at the speed of sound gonna rip it up your the best in town your the team with the bang okay! your the one thats gonna win THAT'S BEYBLADE! BEYBLADE (Let it rip!)

Regarding the network, please don't be confused by this guide. Seasons 1, 2, and 1/3 of 3 debuted on ABC Family. The rest of 3 debuted on Toon Disney, but the guide refuses to show it correctly if it debuted on more than one network. The Beyblade TV Special only aired on YTV.less «

  Beyblade returned in August 2008 in Japan with a new product line called Metal Fight Beyblade. A new anime series under the same name was aired in April 2009 and new episodes have been released every Sunday since then. Manga chapters by new Beyblade manga artist Adachi Takafumi are published monthly in Japan. Three days ago it was announced that Nelvana, the company who dubbed the previous series Bakuten Shoot Beyblade (shortened to just Beyblade in the West), has acquired the rights to once again dub and distrubute the series on DVD in this part of the world. They have been co-producing the Japanese version of the anime (the music part at least) so it'll be interesting to see how they will do with the English dub. My view on this: The previous series of Beyblade would have been received so much better if it had not been for Nelvana doing things such as changing the soundtrack, characters' names and cutting out great scenes. Many of us who have been following Metal Fight Beyblade or who have at least heard of it are apprehensive about how they will handle the new anime. It has already been renamed Beyblade Metal Fusion (which actually isn't a bad name! For once, Nelvana has done okay with this). What other changes will be made? Will the main character Ginga Hagane have his name changed like Takao Kinomiya (Tyson Granger)? Will the opening themes and ending themes be replaced and shortened like last time? Will scenes be cut out yet again? I hope not. I'd love for the series to stay as it is when it's dubbed in English. That way Metal Fight Beyblade will do better than Bakuten Shoot, maybe even be around for longer and enjoyed more by the fans! If it is released on DVD with the original Japanese as well, that would be awesome; it was only done for some episodes in the third season of Bakuten Shoot. Let's hope it'll be done for all the episodes of Metal Fight! My favourite anime has been given another chance. This second chance has gone down well in Japan and the series and the products are taking the country by storm. I hope it does the same here. Don't mess this up Nelvana, because you'll be setting the trend in the West! less «

  Why do people like Kai? Do fans of the show watch Beyblade only to see Kai? If yes, then you're not a true fan. True fans of the show appreciate the contributions each character makes and true fans appreciate what the characters bring. Now, Kai. Kai is portrayed as a selfish, power-hungry, insensitive megalomaniac. He is also portrayed as a loyal, passionate person who displays quality leadership skills. Personally, I find it very annoying when people constantly say, 'he's so sexy' or 'omg so cute'. Strange how people comment his looks and not his personality? And when they do, they focus on what is generally perceived as negative aspects. Now, don't get me wrong. I don't hate Kai - I just find nothing special about him. What generally really makes me annoyed with his devoted fans is the fact people think he is some almighty God. Again, there is nothing special about Kai at all. Sure, Kai may look good, but there are better looking characters, Kai may be a good blader but there are better beybladers than he... Personally, I do not find Kai's skills to be extraordinary - actually, I highly doubt Kai could live up to the expectations people have set him at. Kai's Fanbase I must say, the most confronting thing I believe could happen would probably be facing Kai's fanbase. Kai's fanbase will generally snap at you if you have something negative to say about Kai. Now, if you mention Kai sound like an old woman (I have heard this before) Kai's fanbase will argue with you. This may be highly entertaining, however Kai's fanbase will take your words personally. Yes, I know, it's called OBSESSION. Now, I have searched through various sites for reasons why I love Kai. Here's what I found. He's hot (appearance isn't the most important thing - if you judge a person based on 'hotness' you are shallow) Smart (I highly doubt Kai will be the next Einstein...Kenny's smart too. Was he suddenly forgotten? Poor poor Kenny...) Good at Beyblade (Yep, and so is Tyson, Rei, Max, Daichi...I could go on) Sexy hair (uh huh...) Awesome bitbeast (I agree, but there are many awesome bitbeasts) Face paint (great material for writing him as girly) Muscular (for all we know, he could be on steroids) Awesome glare (and this is awesome why?) He's not evil (considering he is the MAIN antagonist I'm going to have to disagree. Anyway, in season two Kenny told Hilary that Kai 'there was a time in Russia where he went all evil...') He's angsty! I think the appropriate word here is 'moody' (here are two definitions of the word angst) Number 1: Angst, often confused with anxiety, is a transcendent emotion in that it combines the unbearable anguish of life with the hopes of overcoming this seemingly impossible situation. Without the important element of hope, then the emotion is anxiety, not angst. Angst denotes the constant struggle one has with the burdens of life that weighs on the dispossessed and not knowing when the salvation will appear. And number 2: Angst is about downtrodden teenagers thinking they're the only bloody people in the world who have it tough, and thinks that gives them an excuse to wallow in their own self-pity instead of actually doing something about their situation. less «

  7.5 Good

  This is a good show. hide « show »

  I like this show, but I like the manga better because there seem to be better character development in it. The show gets better every season. Though I think they should have let the characters from the second season play a major role in the third season just like they did the first season characters. I did not like the idea that they did not make Hilary a Beyblader in the third season. I know she hated Beyblade in the second season but she started to appreciate it as time passes by. Just because she is a filler character does not give them excuse to do so because there are a very few female Beybladers on the show. Another thing I do not like is when the English dub cut out the all violent scenes and turned it into a kiddie show. Overall the series was good and I like the battle scenes and the songs to go with them.

  A group of kids compete in tournaments with high powered tops with special powers hide « show »

  the shows main character is tyson who used the dragoon bayblade and competes against other baybladers in championchips so the story is pretty new and alot diffrent then what im used to but its pretty good the characters are original and the toys and merchandise are cool but the downside to this show is that somtimes the animations can be a bit bad and hacky but most of the time things fit well together and you have a pretty good show and one more thing thats strange i thought was they talk to there bayblades never really got that how does something like that work

  Great show but not without its flaws hide « show »

  Beyblade is great show but it still has some flaws, for example the shows ending in each season is unsatisfying and leaves fans asking for more. However the characters humors or antics and thrilling battles makes this show worth watching. One problem I noted was we never found out who one that match at the end of season 3 which was in fact pretty annoying since battle had alot of potential to demonstrate what makes this show worth watching. Also more depth to each of the characters pasts wouldn't hurt much. over all I am deeply impressed with this show and all of its seasons.

  Ok show hide « show »

  So this show is about these top things spinning around and the object is for one of the tops to hit the other top till it stops yeah sounds kind of boring but it isn't really there are many other things involved with this show like every top has it's own ability like for example dargoon is a dragon in the top that comes out and usees some special attack to help destroy the other top also there are about 4 kids in every season called the blade breakers and they all have the sam objective to get to the championship and walk away as the winner and the title as the best beyblader around but botton line is aside from the fact that they are just tops this show is kinda cool and i like it a lot more then other shows like goeorge of the jungle

  Not my thing. hide « show »

  Beyblade might be a good show to some people but me I just din't get it.
  The characters were boring the story was not good even the animation looked bad.
  The story starts off with a young boy named Tyson who wants to a great beyblader and his friend max who apparently wants to be a calculator.The person who Tyson desperately wants to beat is another beyblader named Kai who is the leader of the blade sharks and he is also like the best beyblader in town.During their these magical creatures started to come out of their blades whenever they would call out their names.Tyson manages to defeat Kai and along the way several other good beybladers.They then form a team called the bladebreakers and they enter the world beyblade championships.At this point I had completely lost interest in the show so what happened after that I have no idea.
  
  I want try to tell you what you should and should not like but I can tell you what I don't like and I don't like Beyblade.

  Do you agree?
