Beyblade: The Movie - Fierce Battle

I must say, this is one of the neatest anime movies around. i was slightly disappointed that the story was in the year of G Rev, but their outfits were from V-Force. but that's okay. i was just slightly puzzled. anywho, the plot line was great and the final battle was awesome! i own it and would never give it up. it truly is a must-have for all beyblade fans. and their facial expressions.....i could watch the movie over and over because of how funny their expressions are! they're hilarious! i was also slightly disappointed that kai wasn't shown more in it. i'm a HUGE fan of kai, and that kinda made me a little unhappy. however, i'm glad that he got the spotlight for a little while. I also like how well they did with matching up the voice to the mouth movements. unlike many other anime movies, the voice comes out a bit before or after the mouth actually opens. and when that happens, well, then it just doesn't make any sense and i get all confused. but truly, i loved this movie and wish it would be given more credit. beybladers around the world.....GET THIS MOVIE! until then....LET IT RIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
