Slash Ashura 5 Quest Zan (スラッシュアシュラ・ファイブ・クエスト・斬, Surasshu Ashura Faibu Kuesuto Zan) is a Defense Type Beyblade released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Gatinko Layer System. It was released in Japan on April 27th, 2019 for 1080円 as one of eight possible Beyblades in Random Booster Vol. 15.
Gatinko Chip - Ashura
- Main article: Gatinko Chip - Ashura
Ashura is a right-spin Gatinko Chip that features three faces with a stylized A adorning the top, intended to represent the Gatinko Chip's namesake, asura, a demigod in Buddhism. Ashura has a standard weight for Gatinko Chips and features seven fine Locks, giving it average Burst Resistance.

In-depth information for Takara Tomy's Zan Layer Weight will be placed here once drafting has been completed for it. Please be patient.
Layer Base - Slash
- Main article: Layer Base - Slash
Slash is a Right-Spin Attack Type Layer Base that features three upward slanted wings as the primary points of contact, akin to its predecessors in the Valkyrie Energy Layer line. As part of the Gatinko Layer System, Slash is compatible with any Right-Spin or Dual-Spin Gatinko Chip. While the three-sided shape implies Slash has high Attack potential, the wings are too short and do not protrude far enough to make decent contact. While its aggressive shape has moderate Attack potential, Slash is outclassed by Judgement for right-spin Attack Type Layer Bases.
Hasbro's Pro Series Sword is virtually unchanged from Takara Tomy's Slash, but manufactured with weaker materials.
Forge Disc - 5
- Main article: Forge Disc - 5
5, like other odd numbered Core Discs, is asymmetrical and elliptical in shape in order to facilitate a Disc Frame. One side features two protrusions and the other features three, all molded in the shape of "5"s and the center features two small holes on either side. While the asymmetrical design may imply imbalance, the smaller size of two of the protrusions on the three lobed side ensures that the Disc is balanced. 5's overall shape resembles a reversed 4 and acts almost identically with the same high Stamina potential, Knock-Out Resistance and Life-After-Death when paired with Disc Frames such as Glaive or Cross. While 7 has greater Stamina, 5 is still comparable.
Performance Tip - Quest
- Main article: Performance Tip - Quest
Quest is a Defense Type Performance Tip with a free spinning, downward facing conical suction cup tip, with a sharp tip in the center. Due to the suction cup tip, a combination utilizing Quest will stick to the Stadium floor, keeping the combination in place and providing the highest Knock-Out Resistance of any Performance Tip. However, this high KO Resistance comes with a trade-off; due to the nature of its gimmick, a Quest combination will have poor Stamina and high amounts of tilt.
