## Trivia

* This season is similar to the Metal Series season *Shogun Steel*, namely in that there is a time skip in between seasons, as well as the introduction of a new main protagonist with the previous protagonist reduced to a secondary supporting role.
* This season ends the franchise tradition of the protagonist using an Attack Type Beyblade, as protagonist Aiger Akabane uses a Balance Type Bey.
* One of the posters used to promote the anime was later modified to promote the Beyblade Burst World Championship 2018 that was held in Paris.
* Unlike the previous two seasons which were dubbed over by Ocean Productions and Blue Water Studios in Canada, this season of Burst was recorded by Bang! Zoom Entertainment in Los Angeles, California.
	+ Additionally, because of the studio switch, all of the characters from the first two seasons who appeared in this season were given new English voice actors.
	+ Due to this, *Turbo* was the first *Beyblade* season to have its English dub produced by an American studio.
* *Turbo* is the first Burst season to not feature a new song for the English eyecatcher and instead reuses the theme song for the season, "Turbo".
* This is the first *Beyblade* season where the English opening theme changes throughout the season.
* *Turbo* is the first season in the franchise to alter battles in the western release of the season, as the Turbo stadium was used for most major battles in the western release after it made its debut in episode 16.
* *Turbo* is the only *Burst* season to have its prologues shortened down for select episodes of the western release due to American television timeslots.
