YMMV / B-Daman

• Spiritual Successor:
  • Crossfire had more in common with Battle B-Daman than its direct predecessor, Crash. Crossfire even used the same connector for magazines, making both series compatible with accessories from either.
  • Crash B-Daman received on in Beyblade: Metal Fusion, which had very similar character designs and story beats. Several Beyblades in this series were also themed after the same animals as Crash's B-Daman. Beyblade: Shogun Steel, the last series in the Metal saga, would even center around a player using the Ifrit motif.
  • The franchise as a whole received one with Cap Revolution Bottleman. The basic design is more or less the same, but themed after various soft drinks and launching bottle screw caps instead of marbles.
  • Triple Gillusion is made by combining Right Drake and Left Stallion with a third core to form a three-in-one B-Daman. A direct counterpart was created for Bottleman, where R Greno and L Milkaiser could combine into Blend Combine Royal Griphon DX.
  • C.C. Leon DX in Bottleman got a Quick Loader Magazine directly inspired by the one from Battle B-Daman and Crossfire.
