Beyblade V-Force

BlackDranzerexe★ 2

Okay, I would like to point out just how varied those scores are, i'll explain that as we go. Bakuten Shoot Beyblade 2002 (Beyblade V-Force in the U.S.) is a tragic failure at a series. Story- Now, except for G-rev Beyblade fails at stories. This is the worst of it. There's more coherency in a drunk dad solo song at a wedding than in this. You'll never know where you're at in the story until the last 3 eps and other than that it offers nothing new or exciting. Art- Good, not butt ugly, it's passable and the CG blades look nice. The problem is consistency. Last season thecharacters looked 14 to 15. They look like 11 year olds here. There's just a lack of follow-through that hurts what could be a fun art style. Sound- Suffers from generic songs. The Japanese version has increasingly generic music that bores that they can put on for you to ignore while you watch a terrible show. Don't ask about the dub, it suffers from the Rap in anime plague. Characters- Let me get something straight. Beyblade has one of the better main character sets in anime; their main 5-6 I absolutely adore; however, I dock 4 points for this season specific characters. All the season 2 only characters here are badly designed, generic, annoying, and there's more of them than periods in War and Peace. Good luck keeping up with them. Enjoyment- Only if you're a sadist can you enjoy this. It's generic, you can't follow it, and you shouldn't try. Overall- I'm not giving it a 1 just because of the main characters, the fact that the art isn't in itself terrible and the sound isn't terrible. If it didn't have the mains, this would be unwatchable.

The story was very good. It was exciting and attention grabbing. The concept was amazing. Being able to control ancient beasts using modern technology. In the first season, the art was very...rough and not good. The characters were ugly, to be frank.But as the second season and third season arrived, the art improved and the charcters became more good looking and clear. The sounds were very good. They were catchy and upbeat. There were mostly of rock genre. The character profiles were okay...Some characters were not clear and due to that were ignored. This is the show to watch if you're bored. Basically for those who have never seenanime before. After watching this, you would want to watch more and different anime. It piques your interest.
