At least the animation was spot on. Like the battle was pretty good.

Of all the bladers who took on Lane, Valt did far better than the rest so it's still more than reasonable for Valt to hold that title. It's not a brand. It's exactly fitting

Lean only battled Valt, Aiga, and Lui. Though ur right Valt did do the best, a loss is a loss. So far this season Valt only 1v1’d Hikaru and Hyuga and destroyed them, but so did every other legend. In his 2v2’s 1. Valt let Hikaru battle on the same level as him and you could argue Hikaru battle better (Valt & Hikaru vs Free & Hyuga). 2. Valt is the first one to burst And it was a burst to Rantaro, he had to get carried by Free to a win. (Valt & Free vs Silas & Rantaro) 3. Valt is the only bey to burst and gets outperformed by Hyuga. (Valt & Hyuga vs Lui & Free). 4. Valt has just lost to Lean but for some reason (to you guys) he’s still the best in the world.

Wow, almost everything you said is incorrect.

Yeah, I hate Lane. He can go to hell. Valt was clearly going to win.

Spoiler (Click to View)

Wow... who would've thought that this episode would be met with so much backlash, with some even declaring it as one of the worst Beyblade episodes. A reputation that I personally do not think this episode really deserves (the worst episode will always go to V-Force's "The Power Half Hour" IMO), but that's just me.

Now I understand the complaints that this episode (and to an extent, the entirely of Sparking) has received, where it feels like the Legendary Bladers from the past four or five years (save for Shu, because of course they always give him a major role) just exist as set dressing and test dummies for Lean to obliterate, to show how super duper special awesome he is! And yes, it can be a bit infuriating that these beloved characters get brought back just to show great Lean is.

However, besides that, the battle with Valt VS Lean was actually pretty good IMO. Unlike with Aiga VS Lean, Valt does actualIy surpass the barrier and force Lean to "awaken" Lucifer (well, not really) in order for Lean to use a more offensive move and even then, Valt managed to hang on a bit longer rather than immediately getting defeated by it in one single hit. Valt also managed to win a point, which is more than could be said for most of the Legendary Bladers (except for Aiga, who also defeated him one point before too).

The animation they gave the two characters were really well done, showing really exaggerated facial expressions and movements from Lean and the aura ignited from Valt's fighting spirit in the third battle was cool to see. The animation for the beys are cool too, from Valt's Ev' Driver awakening to Lean's new special move.

And in hindsight, it's not surprising Valt ended up losing (I mean besides the heavy amount of spoilers beforehand, unfortunately). In the trailer for this episode, they showed Lucifer glowing but also not using its barrier in one shot which meant that they had to advertise Lean's new special move using Lucifer's "awakened" state (and flare, I guess). If they introduced a new move from the main antagonist that ended up being worthless anyway, it would've probably made "awakened" Lucifer's introduction look underwhelming and gave the impression to viewers "Wow, the "awakened" Lucifer kinda sucks. I dunno why they bothered showing it, when it couldn't even beat Valt". And yes, I know "Diving Dead Stinger Press" from Dead Phoenix had an underwhelming introduction, but it was on the near end of Cho-Z, whether Lean's new move was introduced in the middle of the season.

Plus, I imagine Shu will just beat Lean anyway im the future, since World Spriggan has barely been advertised.

Oh, and the Asahi brothers evolve their beys I guess. That's cool and standard stuff for Burst now, to have mid evolutions. Nothing much to say there, it's pretty basic stuff.

Anyways, the episode may have its problems, but I didn't think it was bad.

What really made me kinda surprised was that Valt was able to take down Lucifer in the 2nd round. Tho it is true Valt took down the barrier he wasnt the first person to do it because Lui was the first one to do it but ended up tying.

I mean yeah, Lui pushed Lucifer back in spite of his barrier getting in the way, but Lucifer defeated Lui using "Variant Wall" which still required his barrier.

With his battle against Valt, his barrier was not only pushed away by Valkyrie but also pushed back in enough to expose Lucifer's "awakened" state and show his true attack potential with no barrier and a new special move with "Variant Disaster", in order to have a better chance against Valt.
