You know Nelvana, when you keep adding 'Metal' to everything in the dub, like Digimon's dub added Digi to everything and Pocket Monster's dub added Poke to everything, it makes it hard to remember which is which. Shame they're not keeping 4D though, since it ties into the series.

The comment about the music is interesting though. The Japanese version obviously has far superior music, but I'm confused to find out it's the same people, apparently, which begs the question of why changing it to begin with.

wut

As far as I know, Nelvana doesn't change the background music in Beyblade, since they were the ones who composed it. The only thing they change are the opening/ending theme songs (which may be used as insert songs) since past the first opening theme for Metal Fight Beyblade, they did not compose them, and thus would have to pay to license that music.

Maybe I misread it then, since it says they produced music for the "Japanese and English releases" which I thought implied they were going to change it by pointing out the different versions.

Why US, what's wrong with Metal Fight? I'm sure 1st-2nd grade kids say fight and know what fight means.
