In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Beyblade is refreshingly non-woke, focusing on skill, competition, and teamwork rather than identity politics. For anyone tired of modern ideological shoehorning, this one spins straight and true.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Beyblade focuses on competitive spinning tops, prioritizing tournament arcs and friendships over modern ideological themes. The characters are diverse in personality and skill, but not artificially so. Identity factors rarely, if ever, take precedence over merit or narrative cohesion.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values like teamwork, perseverance, and friendship are at the forefront. Masculinity is neither lampooned nor worshipped, and the show's take on family and cultural traditions is pretty neutral, sticking closely to the typical anime model without pushing any agenda.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Worldviews aren't shoehorned in, and alternative perspectives (based on personality and strategy) are explored through the characters' rivalries and backgrounds. There's no clear push for ideological uniformity or villainization of traditional viewpoints.
