Story and characters
The season follows Dante Koryu and Delta Zakuro, two rookie bladers training under the legendary Valt Aoi at BC Sol, the Spanish club from the earlier Burst seasons. When Valt's new Gamma Bey, Sword Valtryek, unlocks a golden Hyper-Flux state, the two rookies set out to reach that state themselves. Dante travels to Japan, the birthplace of Beyblade, to learn about Blading and Hyper-Flux, facing opponents such as Arman Kusaba, the King of the Blading District.3 • 8
Dante's partner Bey is Ace Dragon, which uses interchangeable Layer Bases such as the Glyph Base and Rock Base; episode 7 is the first in which Dante uses all three of Dragon's Layer Bases in a single battle.3 Delta's European Championship win in episode 6 sets up his membership in the Risen 3.3
