Differences in adaptations

 * An entirely different opening theme is used in the English dub.
 * The spelling for Ginga's Bey, Storm Pegasis was changed to Storm Pegasus.
 * Before the opening Theme in the original Japanese version are 30 second prologues. The English dub dropped them entirely and replaced them with their own 40 second "Last Time on Beyblade" segment.
 * Ginga's name was changed to Gingka (pronounced Jingka) in the english dub.
 * In the English dub version where Benkei's Bey hits him in the nuts... That scene's video was paused, while the audio of that scene was still intact.
 * The ending theme in the English dub is just credits with the audio for the English opening, but instrumental.
 * The previews in the English dub are redone with different video and are 45 seconds instead of 30. Also, instead of Kenta narrating the preview like he does in the Original, the english version uses a Doc Harris (Dragon Ball Z english dub) like narrator.
