What to know
- Third and final season of the Original Series, sequel to Beyblade VForce.
- Directed by the same director as Season 1, returning to a tournament-focused format after VForce's filler-heavy approach.
- Introduces Engine Gear tops and, in the BEGA arc, the Hard Metal System tops.
- Bit-beasts now appear only during special attacks rather than emerging in a flash of light.
- Structured in two halves: episodes 1-30 (a BBA round-robin across the USA, Italy, Spain, Egypt and Australia) and episodes 31-52 (the BEGA arc, introducing Boris's Beyblade Entertainment Global Association).
- Ends with Team G Revolutions (Tyson, Kai, Ray, Max, Kenny, Daichi) defeating BEGA; both anime and manga concluded by 2004 as the franchise shifted focus to its toyline.
- Marks the franchise's shift away from centering bit-beasts toward focusing on Bladers, Beyblades and their attack patterns.
- 52 Japanese episodes, tying it with Beyblade: Metal Fury and Beyblade Burst Rise (GT) for the franchise's highest episode count.

- Nearly every Bakuten Shoot Beyblade team returns for this season, except the Dark Bladers (aside from a Japan-exclusive ending cameo).
- Several tournament teams carry deliberate rival themes, e.g. Tyson/Daichi (East/West dragons), Kai/Tala (fire/ice), Ray/Lee (yin/yang), and Max/Rick (defense/offense).
- Unlike the first two seasons, GRevolution emphasizes elaborate pre-battle launch rituals, such as Tyson's launch checklist.
- The Japanese finale (episode 51) features a montage cameo of nearly every prior character, including the Saint Shields, the Majestics, Team Psykick and Zeo.
- An official Japanese d-rights website existed for the series.
