Beywarriors: Cyborg

The eighth installment of the mainline Beyblade anime, succeeding Beyblade: Shogun Steel and marking the last Nelvana/d-rights co-production and Nelvana's final involvement in the franchise. Set roughly in the 22nd century on the abandoned planet Teslandia, youths under 17 bond with devices called Beyraiderz to summon half-human, half-machine Cyborg Warriors and battle each other to convert Sanctuary energy into collectible Tokens. Announced in 2013 under working titles including 'Beyraiderz Shogun,' its release slipped for over a year before a 2014 Italian premiere, and after Shogun Steel and Beyraiderz underperformed, Nelvana dropped the project, leaving it unreleased in North America.

What to know

  • Eighth installment of the mainline Beyblade anime, succeeding Beyblade: Shogun Steel; the last Nelvana/d-rights co-production and Nelvana's final involvement in the Beyblade franchise.
  • Set roughly in the 22nd century on the abandoned planet Teslandia, where youths under 17 bond with 'Beyraiderz' devices to summon half-human, half-machine 'Cyborg Warriors' and battle for energy Tokens.
  • Confirmed for 28 episodes (26 half-hour episodes plus 2 one-hour specials) per a June 11, 2013 Nelvana press release; music composed by newcomer Catalin Marin, succeeding longtime composers Neil Parfitt and Scott Bucsis.
  • Premiered in Italy on K2 October 18, 2014, though only 14 of 28 episodes aired there; the full series aired on Toonami Asia and streamed on Anime Hodai.
  • Announced in May 2013 under working titles 'Beywarriors: Cyborg' and 'Beyraiderz Shogun,' with a planned Fall 2014 release that slipped after Nelvana dropped the 'Cyborg' title from its 2015-2016 programming newsletter.
  • After the poor performance of Beyblade: Shogun Steel and Beywarriors: Beyraiderz, Nelvana dropped the series; distribution passed to d-rights and Hasbro canceled its companion toyline.

  • As of 2025 the series remains unreleased in North America despite Disney XD acquiring the full Beyblade catalog's rights in late 2016, and is considered unlikely to be released there following Beyblade X's launch.

Claims We Could Not Check

Attributed, not verified by us

  • Its press-release tagline 'half-creature, half-machines who are all WARRIOR!' echoes RoboCop's 'PART MAN, PART MACHINE, ALL COP,' and the show launched in 2014, the same year as the RoboCop reboot film.
  • First series after Beyblade: Shogun Steel not to feature Samurai Ifrit's Spirit in its logo, and the only Beywarriors series to do so.
  • The second Beyblade series, after Beyblade Burst GT (Rise), to premiere via a Japanese streaming service rather than television.
