Beyblade: Metal Fusion S1 E33

## Plot

Since Ginga, Tsubasa, and Yu tied for third place, they all receive 1,000 points. Now Ginga just needs 2,000 more to qualify for Battle Bladers. Kenta, as the runner-up, receives 3,000 points. He still needs 15,000 more to qualify for Battle Bladers. Kyoya earns 10,000 points, for a total of 50,500 bey points, making him the first person to qualify for Battle Bladers. Ginga and Kenta look forward to facing off against him there. Yu says he's stronger, but Tsubasa tells him that the strong one doesn't always win. It's the one who wins that is strong. The man in the phoenix mask leaves. Everyone says goodbye and goes their separate ways again. Madoka breaks down the final battle for Ginga. Libra and Eage's clash created a huge power, but Pegasus created a vacuum that blew all of that power away. The reason Pegasus also went flying was because Ginga wasn't able to control that power. If he can control it, he could be able to create a new special move for Pegasus that no one can beat. Madoka has a new launcher for him. *Tetsuya* shows up again. No! Why?! He comes up with a surprising good disguise and accent to interact with Madoka and Ginga, and claims to be a researcher of tops named Nigel. I mean, I guess beys are technically tops. Ginga shows him Storm Pegasus, as well as his point counter. While he distracts them, Tetsuya switches his and Ginga's point counters. Before he can leave, Madoka tells Ginga that the new launcher also has a digital point counter on it, so she'll transfer all his points onto it now. She tries it, but it doesn't work. They see that the counter just has a sticker with a number on it, and see Tetsuya trying to sneak away. They realize who he is, and he runs away. They chase after him, and confront him in a construction site. Suddenly, the Phoenix shows up, and uses his bey to take the point counter. Tetsuya leaves. Thank you! Phoenix says he won't return the pointer to someone who doesn't take care of it. He thinks Ginga fought like a coward in his last battle. He'll return the pointer, but only if he beats him in a match. Ginga agrees, and they fight. Burn Fireblaze has a metal performance tip. It creates lots of friction and resistance, so that means it has a huge amount of power. Ginga uses his Starblast attack, but Phoenix ricochets his bey back onto the beam they were fighting on. He uses his own special move, Flame of Fireblaze, to melt the beam. Ginga wonders why no one has seen a powerful blader like Phoenix before. He tells him that someone who doesn't know what he's fighting for can't master Beyblade. Madoka tells Ginga that a flame can't burn inside of a vacuum. He sends both beys up into the air, but Phoenix says it's not over yet. He uses another special move, Iron Fireblaze Burning Fire Strike, to create an explosion. When the ash and embers clear, Fireblaze is still spinning on another beam, and Pegasus crashes into the ground. Phoenix crushes Ginga's point counter. He tells him that defeat means losing everything, and that his willpower is weakening. Ginga refuses to give up, and accepts having to start back at zero. He won't lose again, saying that the day he does is the day he quits beyblade. Phoenix tells him that that's the willpower he needs, and leaves.
