## Summary

From high atop the Blading world reign the Blading Legends, a select group of Bladers who set the standard to which all other hopefuls aspire. No challenger yet has succeeded in breaking through their ranks.

A legend among legends, Valt Aoi hosts an exhibition match featuring a revolutionary class of Bey: “Lightning Beys”. Inspired by the battle, two unknown brothers, Hyuga and Hikaru Hizashi, issue a challenge: armed with their own Lightning Beys Hyperion and Helios, this unlikely duo is going to topple Beyblade’s ruling elite.

As the Hizashi brothers’ challenge envelops the world’s Blading legends, a new tournament is born to determine who among them is truly the best. In the middle of this mayhem, there lurks a unique Blader shrouded in mystery.

Will Hikaru and Hyuga be the spark that ignites a Blading revolution? With their solar Beys in hand, the brothers are ready to begin their own legend of growth and adventure.

## Trivia

* The Japanese name 'Superking' is focused off of the Ring names of the main protagonist Beyblades of the season, Super Hyperion Xceed 1A and King Helios Zone 1B.
* Surge is the second *Burst* season where the Japanese and English versions do not start in the same year, first being *Beyblade Burst Rise*.
* Surge is the first *Burst* season to not have an elite Blader team, instead it's the Legendary Bladers.
* Surge is the first 'Burst' season to not play the opening theme song in the Japanese next episode preview, instead it plays an alternate version of "Sparking Revoluton."
* Surge is the second season where the English title card does not reuse the background from the Japanese opening's logo card, first being *Rise*, instead it uses the beach visual from the first episode, just without Hikaru and Hyuga running.
	+ This is also the first season to use a shot from an episode in the English title card.
* Surge is the second Burst season to not feature a new song for the English eyecatcher and instead reuses the theme song for the season, "We Got the Spin", first being *Beyblade Burst Turbo*.
