BeyWarriors: Cyborg is a Canadian-Japanese anime series, a spin-off of the Beyblade franchise.[1] Commissioned by Nelvana and produced by SynergySP, the series follows BeyWheelz and BeyWarriors: BeyRaiderz in being created primarily for the western market.[2] The standalone show has 26 episodes, as well as 2 specials.
Despite being produced for a western audience, BeyWarriors: Cyborg has seen limited distribution outside of Asia. The series initially debuted on K2 on October 18, 2014 in Italy where the show's first 14 episodes ran before being abruptly pulled from the schedule.[3] An English dubbed version started airing on Toonami Asia and Toonami India on October 3, 2015. The Japanese version of the series began streaming on February 27, 2015 on the Anime Hodai streaming service.[4] It was later streamed on U-Next.[3]
In conjunction with the channel's then upcoming broadcast of Beyblade Burst, Disney XD in the United States acquired the catalog rights to the entire Beyblade franchise in late 2016.[5] This included BeyWarriors: Cyborg, though as of 2018 the series remains unreleased in North America.
Plot
The newest series of the Beyblade saga is BeyWarriors: Cyborg, warriors who resemble half-creatures and half-machines. Mysterious objects called "Beyraiderz" are found in the sanctuaries of Teslandia. The Cyborg Warriors transform the energy released from the sanctuaries into small objects called Tokens. Who will win more battles to collect the most amount of Tokens?
"Teslandia" is an abandoned planet, ignored by the rest of the nearby planets due to its harsh environment. The story begins with Nico, Al and Sola. They must get the most tokens possible. When power spots containing high levels of energy called "Sanctuaries" were identified, and mysterious vehicle shaped items called "Beyraiderz" were found along with the Sanctuaries. Beyraiderz can synchronize with the youths under the age of 17 living in Teslandia, and summon the Cyborg creatures known as "Warrior." The Warrior can transform high level "Sanctuaries" energy into small Tokens. This means that human beings are able to obtain energy by making the "Warrior" battle against each other to turn the arid wasteland into a lush and bountiful world.
So, who will win the most battles and collect the most Tokens? What mystery lies behind each Warrior and a group of invincible warriors with features of half-humans and half-machines can transform energy into small artifacts called 'tokens'. Who will win the battles now?
When the warrior battles start two mysterious warriors appear in the desert next to the stone region. These two mysterious battlers have the ability to give power to a warrior to summon another warrior in a battle and also the power to take away tokens directly from the symbols carved on the chest of the bey warriors.Who are these mysterious warriors?
