#lean valhalla

also this is from the ep where rantaro and valt and shu and lean face off! yes its the one where valt and shu face off and do their rush shoot and counter break like old time i was smiling so wide the entire few minutes man, you could literally feel the intensity from the screen and there were points where the entire stadium just went quiet i think? everyone knows how legendary this is lmao.

but the one that was most affected by this was lean LOL man was sweating as hard as valt and shu at the end, i believe this is when he starts understanding more about what he's missing and why he can't feel the same thrill from beyblading as the others (mainly hikaru and hyuga who also have the same kind of flare as him, but it shines✨, i think thats just the anime's way of showing their's is more positive and healthy). loved how intense the whole battle was and our best boy valt ended it off by saying "this is how we beyblade!" to lean ugh they shoulda just done this from the beginning man why wait 48 eps for valt and shu to battle epically.

also i noticed that they used the same monochrome design for the animation when valt and shu were battling, as they did for the world championship in s2 for valt vs red eye (p a i n) i wonder what that means? (again, probably p a i n)
