Claims We Could Not Check

• Several earlier left-spin Beyblades — the L-Drago variants, Gravity Destroyer, and Variares — appear as cameos on Kite's research screen.
• Orochi's beast form differs between the Japanese and international dubs: the original design has eight heads on a ship-shaped body, while the dub redesigned it as a humanoid pirate snake and dropped the skull-and-crossbones motif.
