Honestly, this series should have concluded ages ago. I understand the company is trying to make money, but wasn't this series made in 1999?

Your right on that. I am not even sure Bleach and Naruto combined make that much profit, much less Beyblade. Is Japan in a reccession as well? Because 200 million yen isn't something to sneeze at, so this makes one wonder.[/quote]

I would guess that using metal would make the tops more dangerous, wouldn't you agree?

I smell a typical shonen plot in that sentence. Though I am sure the creator has already thought of that.

If the tops had metal, they would make the characters "more" powerful, thus making that a typical shonen plot. Increasing one's powers is an old shonen plot that has been around for decades.
Sorry for the confusion, I hope I haven't caused too much confusion.

The absurdity of this show is such that even I cannot suspend my disbelief.

It's kinda sad that shows like this get restarted after 4 years, yet others that truely need to be continued, don't.
Someone needs to make a card game out of something like Kare Kano.

Bah, my friend and I brought back the Beyblade scene at school already, kinda like how the Rubix cube made a come back. Despite them being dangerous, I'm glad that they're making them out of metal now. I never finished the series, never really liked it. But I do like the tops.

That is completly true. Shows that should be revived usally aren't, yet revenue producing shows like Beyblade do.
Seriously, Karin*, I Me Strawberry Eggs*, Genshiken Ah My Goddess are just a few shows that I think should be revived.
*Obviously Karin and I Me Strawberry Eggs were Geneon titles and as everyone knows, Geneon closed. So out of the four, probably those two wouldn't receive a revivement.

All of these red lines
and still it refuses to die. It's almost as if Takara-Tomy didn't care that people dislike it. I'm in a mood now. Bah.
