Description

I had a conversation with two of my good friends about how we used to fangirl over the Beyblade boys back when it was still cool to Let It Rip back in our Secondary school days. Man, I miss those times.

I really enjoyed the first season and followed it closely (the dubbed version! somehow this was a dubbed version where I actually enjoyed listening to the character's voices. Especially Rei's omgggg  ) Loved the characters, the art, the animation, the bit beasts… I owned my own Beystadium as well as 2 Dranzers, while my brother owned a Draciel and my cousins owned a Dragoon and a Driger each. (Bladebreakers FAMILY YO) I love Dranzer!

I've never really gotten into a "merchandise-based" anime the way I got into/was obsessed about Beyblade. So to relive the nostalgia, here’s my top 4 favourite characters from the series! Oliver, Ray/Rei, Kai and Max

P.S. I have no idea whether Oliver’s name is spelt as Oliver Polanski or Oliver Boulanger (I remember the former over the latter) so I just tagged him as “Oliver” haha. Unicorn bit beasts ftw!

i'm around that age too! and so are my friends who used to obsess over it as well. hehe it's one of those shows from that generation that just leaves such a deep impression on our childhood that we can never ever forget it...

Very cute picture!

Polanski was Oliver's last name in the dub, Boulanger (no, I won't admit I had to check how it is written) is from the original Japanese version And I know right, Ray's dub voice <3 I've liked Beyblade ever since it came out here in 2004, then had a couple years break, and maybe around 2009 I remembered "Oh, it had that third season which they didn't air in Finland. Well let's watch it". And there has been no turning back since then l'D

OhmiGOD, I LOVED Beyblade when I was a kid!! (In a matter of fact, I still do.)
I can't remember the Bey I had, but I remember I had a stadium, but no one lived by me had any Beyblades.
'Twas a sad life my Bey had. ;w;

HAHA I FEEL YOU. the only people i knew who had beyblades were my family members... we even bought those spark disks and played them around our neighbourhood creating sparks at random walls HAHA. those were the days!!!


i treasured my beyblades so much that i hardly battled with them though... i was afraid to scratch them D:

Haha, I wish my parents were like that. My mom doesn't really get anime (But she does like a good Studio Ghibli film now and then), and my dad thinks I should grow up and stop watching "cartoons". Ugh. (<_>)

haha don't worry, at least you have like-minded people here who enjoy the things that you do as well!
