    If they use the original anime I'm excited, but if they aim for this second thing noup.


    I loved the first version with Tyson, Kai, May and Ray. ^^ Especially the 3rd season and the world tournament.

    15 year old me would have loved this a decade ago. I wasn't aware that Beyblade was still a 'thing'. Good for them.

    Beyblade got a new anime about 3-4 years ago and as far as I know the kids like it. I didn't watch it. My anime watching times are mostly over.
