    Did what it needed to do in order to satisfy its target audience.

    What sets aside my review from the other (justified) negative reviews for this show is that I was the target demographic at the initial time of broadcast.

    People compare Bakugan to shows like "Pokemon", "Beyblade" and "Yu- Gi-Oh" describing it as either ripping them off or following in their "terrible" footsteps. However this works for this show and the three aforementioned shows all had similar target audiences and were successful in satisfying them.

    This puts these comparisons in a very favorable light for Bakugan.

    The show itself lacks substance, depth and common sense when viewed through the eyes of an adult but for a child, these traits do not constitute a good show. They constitute a bad show that requires more brainpower to understand and enjoy.

    Bakugan taken at face value is a very poor show clearly designed to push toys to children however, it does this extremely well.

    I remember enjoying this show a large amount and would urge any parent or older sibling to allow a younger child who has rejected "better" animes in the past the chance to watch something they will enjoy.

    This show on its own: 3/10

    This show for children: 7/10 as it still falls short of other similar shows like "Pokemon", "Beyblade" and "Yu-Gi-Oh"

    Excellent Show!

    I enjoyed the show. It's logical and it's great.

    The characters are interesting and childish which makes it funnier, and best of all, what I probably enjoyed more than the story is the brawls. The rules of the game are awesome, you can look them up online. They make the game about strategy which means you have to predict your opponent's next few moves.

    The plot is cool, it adds to the show and is creative.

    As for People on here saying it's inconsistent are making ridiculous claims, and their reviews should not be taken seriously as most of them themselves have hardly watched 2 episodes.

    If you carry on in the show, these "inconsistencies" will start to become clearer on what the characters meant at the time of saying it.

    Good fight scenes.

    I enjoy watching anime. The story may not be the best but the battle scenes make up for it. The show is meant for younger children around 7 or 10. I got interested in it when I was 17 and I am now 21. I find it funny that the majority of reviewers on this show are made my old people not children. Spin Master has a reboot planned sometime in 2016 or 2017. It may be interesting to watch.

    PS: I had to add all of this random stuff to make a post: Cap the jar with a tight brass cover. The couch cover and hall drapes were blue. A speedy man can beat this track mark. Fruit flavors are used in fizz drinks. He ran half way to the hardware store. The vane on top of the pole revolved in the wind. The loss of the second ship was hard to take. Torn scraps littered the stone floor. Cut the cord that binds the box tightly. It's easy to tell the depth of a well. The source of the huge river is the clear spring. No doubt about the way the wind blows.

    BAKUGAN BRAWL!!!!!!!

    My Top No. 1 favourite, Sci-fi and Fantasy Anime Shows of all time since Childhood. I even made Shun Kazami my fantasy husband to hehe.

    Bakugan is good

    For starts I don't get why so many people just start hating on this because it has similarities to Pokemon.

    I haven't watched Bakugan for a few years nor I was able to watch the other serse after it because I lost track due to only having cable TV for a whole year.

    But I remember watching when it first came out. Both me and my sister used to enjoy it. Even my dad found an abandoned Bakugan toy at a chinese restaurant once and gave it to me.

    Believe it or not I even had a fantasy of Pokemon and Bakugan having a crossover.

    Straight to the point doesn't matter which came out first. If you enjoy it thats all that matters.

    • Trivia
      Billy, the Subterra brawler, has a very similar appearance to Ash Ketchum in Pokémon. Billy wore Ash's Indigo League hat from Season 1 in Pokémon, Billy throws a Bakugan similar to Ash's throwing style: a a backwards turn of the cap, then saying the command. On top of these things, Billy and Ash both have high, and particularly annoying voices.
