The new 2021 Daiwa Zillion just blew my mind!
t's still early, but so far it is one of the most enjoyable reels I've ever fished!
It's super compact without being "crampy"
It's extremely lightweight, without using alloys that corrode easily when abused in the salt.
You can cast very light weights without sacrificing spool integrity, And it casts long ranges without sacrificing control, or the need to remove the sideplate.
And it comes equipped with all the bells and whistles you could want!
Additionally, I have yet to use a more refined Aluminum geared baitcaster....The Steez SV TW(and the new 2021 Steez SV TW limited) phenominal, but the new Zillion trumps them!
Despite lacking a pair of levelwind bearings and handle knob bearings.

In fact I look really forward to weekends just so I can get them in my hand. My favorite set ups.

Just to put the gear tooth size in to perspective, I'm a diesel technician and have seen and can appropriately eyecrometer a rear end ring gear tooth depth and it's still only around .5" of total tooth length and that gear can handle 2050lb-ft for hundreds of thousands of miles. The proper machining tolerances and engineering that goes into keeping that gear lubricated is what makes that component in a class 8 vehicle go the distance.

Just got my JDM Zillion , 5.5 gear ratio and I agree - one of the best, if not the best reel I own, and that's putting it against Steez SV & CT, new Metaniums and Aldebarons. It has the butter smooth solid feel of the Metanium, without the in-and-out handle play, definitely better than both the SV and CT Steez. It's very comfortable to palm and the thumb bar is rock solid. I'm quite impressed. IMHO, it's a better reel than the Metanium in pretty much every way.

Gotta keep thumb pressure on the thumb bar during the cast... today's longer handles and sometimes larger knobs, creates enough forward inertia to re-engage the reel on casts. I learned this on my Gen I Z2020H after this occurred a few times...luckily, no damage on the main and pinion and still super smooth and tight, since I purchased it from Brooklyn Bill's in spring 2010. Sucks and hard lesson learned.

The new Curado M has that same no movement in the main axle line, in the handle as the reels in this video. Splendid feel in the 201M!! Feels expensive as F. First reel for me that has no in/out movement on the main gear axle in the handle. Only very minor wooble in one knob, nothing in the other. Sooo very nice feel. So nice I'm going to buy another one to have for fishing in the brackish water here in the Baltic Sea. I use it for lighter -130g pike fishing. Will be fun to see how long it will hold up to this, as I often only throw around 50-75grams so should be no problem at all. Btw, this is the best KZfaq channel of all times! You old GOAT! BTW!! The M also has the orings on the spool shaft as this one, on both ends.

@tackleadvisors I was a Shimano fan, but 5 years ago I moved to Daiwa. I hate the Shimano disengaged system (clutch plate) because it scratches the body as you use the reel. In the beginnig the Shimano disengaged system is smooth, light to press... After months of use it turns to hard to press and it scratches the internals. All my Curados and Scorpions has the same problem. The same system of the Bantan showed on video. I have a 2004 Daiwa Alphas 103L and it performs like a brand new reel. Only Shimano premium reels like Calcutta Conquest series or Antares series has a different disengaged system that has no problem that I wrote. I have 2005 Calais 201A, 2004 Calcutta Conquest 51. Awesome reels! I have 2016 Zillions SV TW, 2019 Alphas CT, Tatula CT Type R, and now, 2021 Zillions SV TW G 100XHL (USDM version). I think that I will never go back to Shimanos...

the up close look early on in the vid where you're pondering a scratch as you're thumbing it clean had me laughing. i received my JDM zillion today from japan and to my surprise noticed a tiny blemish/paint bubble considering i'm in denial with my eyesight and need readers; 45 here. truly was funny considering the stigma of JDM products...the high standards...and was surprised it made it into the box. but whatever, they all get scuffed at some point. i'm impressed you landed yours for $320 shipped. the best i could find and i've been hawking ebay and the likes hard was $365 shipped for a 7.1:1, considering some are going for over $500 due to demand. regarding feel and smoothness it does have a different feel to it that i immediately compared to my steez sv tw reels...as you described. unless you've changed your stance on the new limited steez; i immediately saw it as a rehash cash grab. otherwise, daiwa has made their high end steez line obsolete overnight with this new zillion...even if you argued the 5.6 vs 6.1 oz which really is negligible in my hands. add a clicking drag on top of this at nowhere near the steez price...you'd have to assume that daiwa must be working on a new steez platform with the limited edition to maintain interest in the meantime...time will tell. if not, hello zillion!

Based off of what I saw here and looking at the Tatula Elite series, I feel there's going to be a Steez revamping in the near future. I also suspect there will be a Zillion Long Cast or Zillion A TW on the way as well.

Love your in depth tear downs and reviews. You mentioned how making these reviews and the work involved can take a lot of time, so you really have to be excited about the product to make one of these. What do you think about just making a shorter 5 or 10 minute video on products that you've used and aren't too crazy about so we can get your opinion on them. I love watching all the high-end reviews you do, but all of my gear is entry level. The nicest reel I have is an SLX DC. If you get your hands on some more entry-level stuff and use it I think that many people would appreciate just a quick review. Just a thought. Appreciate all the work you put into these videos and your sense of humor, I get a good chuckle out of it.

I suspect if Shimano would have moved the Conical Line Guide on the Bantam all the way forward to the nose of the reel the distance casting would have been improved significantly.

I have been using both roro spools rx 27 and 30.....order their sic bearings if you want the best performance.. Especially in the cold... Also make sure you loosen the spool tensioner / zero adjuster otherwise you'll have an issue snapping the latch shut... They're great! The red spool outcasts the booster distance wise... And the bfs spool throws a bare hook and 4mm tungsten bead very well with stock bearings... I think that's 8 tenths of a gram

Where do I send my zillion tw hd 1520? I just bought it off SU, and something isn't right with it. Sloppy spool (side to side), and it doesn't spin very freely when I give the handle a good whip.

I’m was joking. You should try a Daiwa. (Made in Japan model only) or this new Zillion. The lower end Daiwa in the past made in Thailand are not great, but their high end made in Japan are really good.

What are your thoughts on the battle 3 vs the BG? I was in the process of buying a bt3 4000 but after realizing they dropped the aluminum rotor and spool bearing, I’m not so sure. Especially since they put that same bearing in the DX model, but for extra money.. Am I too worried about the rotor and bearing, or is that something to be concerned about?

I’m trying to get an opinion on the Bates Hundo vs the Daiwa Zillion. The only issue I have with the Zillion is the finish scratches so easily. I own one & love it except for that one problem. I have heard really good things about the Hundo and I’ve held one but haven’t fished with it or cast it. They’re basically the same price. The Hundo is super lightweight and beautiful! I don’t want to buy one and discover it’s not as good as the Zillion. If you’re the Tackle Junkie, I apologize for asking again but the caption says Tackle Advisors & doesn’t show your face but sounds like Tackle Junkie.
