Beyblade G-Revolution. Beyblade V-Force. Beyblade. In the conclusion of G-Revolution,Beyblade's last season,the original version contained some images showing all the characters that ever made an important appearence,like those in V-Force and those who didn't returned in G-Revolution.For some reason,Nelvana censored the images,although they were nothing but images showing all the characters. Every episode and season had its title changed from its Japanese counterpart, except for the third season's title (G-Revoluton). Elements of the dialogue were also changed, sometimes leading to incongruity between the dialogue and what happens onscreen. An image and name of the bit beast also appears.
