Beyblade: Shogun Steel,[1] known in Japan as Metal Fight Beyblade Zero-G (メタルファイトベイブレード ZERO-G, Metaru Faito Beiburēdo ZERO-G), is a Japanese manga by Takafumi Adachi based on Takara Tomy's Beyblade franchise. It was published between April 2012 and December 2012 in CoroCoro Comic, and serves as the conclusion to the Beyblade Metal Saga. Whereas the previous installments focused on metal parts, the line of Beyblades in Shogun Steel focused on zero gravity battles with the advent of a new stadium system.[2]
Furthermore, this manga was adapted into an anime series that aired on TV Tokyo in Japan from April 8, 2012, to December 23, 2012 and marks the seventh overall anime series in the franchise. The entire series was released on DVD on February 12, 2019, from Cinedigm.[3]
Seven years have passed since the God of Destruction met his end at the hands of a Legendary Blader. A new era of Beyblade has begun, bringing with it new Blades. When Zyro Kurogane witnessed this final battle with the lord of destruction years ago, a fire began to burn within him to push forward to a new future, while Zyro is the champion in his hometown, he wants to test himself and seek out more significant opponents. Thus, he heads to Metal Bey City, Gingka's hometown. When Zyro arrives and discovers that Gingka is nowhere to be found, he learns that bladers from all over the world have come to test themselves against the Cyclone Bey stadium. Wanting to push his skills to the next level, Zyro takes part in the new era of Beyblade and tests his might against the Cyclone stadium. In this series, Zyro is also guided by Gingka to become a true Blader.
