B-Daman Fireblast,[2] known in Japan as Cross Fight B-Daman eS (クロスファイト ビーダマンeS), is the second B-Daman anime series in the Crossfire saga, succeeding B-Daman Crossfire, and is based on the Emblem Charge System introduced in the toyline in September 2012. It premiered on October 7, 2012, after an airing of Beyblade: Shogun Steel at 8:45 JST on the TV Tokyo network. It was later moved to 8:30 JST following the conclusion of the Beyblade: Shogun Steel anime, and the introduction of the Beast Saga anime.
B-Daman Fireblast first launched internationally outside Japan in June 2014, in the country of Spain, followed by India, Germany and others. On March 27, 2015, B-Daman Fireblast was released in North America through a new app for iPhone and iPad, with an Android device release on April 13, 2015. The app upon release featured access to the first 9 episodes in English.[3] Originally, the English dub was to be run by The CW's Saturday morning block Vortexx following the run of B-Daman Crossfire, but those plans never came into fruition as the block later ceased operations in September 2014.
Plot
[edit]The new anime takes place in "Crest Land", set after the mysterious "B-Crystal" went berserk at the WBMA Headquarters. The main protagonist, Kamon Day, lives in the south area of Crest Land, and is an energetic boy who loves B-Daman. However, he lost his all past memories of B-Daman and his family, except for his big sister Aona who lives with him. One day, Kamon meets Garuburn, a B-Daman, at his local B-Daman shop, "B-Junk", and he finds Garuburn strangely familiar. Garuburn becomes his partner, and he returns to the B-Daman battles once again.
