Bakugan: Battle Planet

I watched this series in my childhood! Bakugan Battle Brawlers is the real thing! This is a fake copy with a whole new story line and new characters. If they wanted to do a so called 'Reboot' they should have used another name too!! Bakugan: Battle Planet only has 1 different word compared to the original Bakugan: Battle Brawlers... This is mockery! This should not be rated positive by anyone who knows the original! I'm not saying the storyline isn't good, but they are making fun of their own series. Now this series is available on Netflix and I'm deeply disappointed. The original is way better for nostalgic reasons & the battles are just crappy now, if they changed the name completely I would have agreed more, but changing only 1 word in the name? Come on now anyone who watched the original series should relate to how I'm feeling now. I was deeply disappointed, the battles are confusing and not good at all, battles have been the exciting part of the series since the start, now it is confusing. You don't know what's happening at all! This is not even worth 1 star for me. 0 stars should be the minimum.

They try too hard to make it funny and kid friendly. The original series seemed more closer to anime style then this new one thats more like a kid cartoon.

Also i dont like how the visual graphics looks, the old one looks more like an anime and this new one looks like its for kids.

As a big Bakugan fan I am, I gave Battle Planet a try (on a kids channel called Pop), but 2 or 3 episodes in I disliked it and think it's garbage. The theme song doesn't bring as much hype, as the original theme did, the Bakugans all look robotic, less organic, instead of the looking like actual Animals or mythical creatures or Aliens or other compared to the original series, the characters are boring and childish. They ruined Shun Kazami's & Dan Kuso's characters, I prefer the original Dan & Shun over the new ones, they should have just made new characters instead, the animation looked more like a western world animation, rather than a actual Japanese Anime.

This show is very childish, very kiddy friendly, in the original series, it was more grown up as the seasons went on and more mature.

I'm sorry But as a OG Bakugan Fan Bakugan Bakugan Brawlers, New Vestroia, Gundalian Invaders and Mechtanium Surge Arc 1/2 will always out beat Battle Planet.

Bakugan:Battle Planet is trash.

Now before you say "But Bakugan is my childhood", "CN make a good reboot, are you high?" "It's decent but they barley air it" or some other crap like that just shut up. And on a side note, I made IMDB list of other good reboots on CN. Anyways what I like about this Bakugan is that the battles are more engaging to watch. I know it's par for the course for trading card anime to play out a more epic version of the game in show but at the end of the day it is them just playing the game. The original show was like that too but here the bakugan have more range to fight when compared to the turn based style of the first show, the kids can pitch in by throwing power up baku-cores that can either power or heal a bakugan so the kids aren't rendered useless, plus it also ties into the rules of the new game. Speaking of which checkout the new toys their pretty cool. I also like the 11 minute run time it's rare for an anime to do that and considering that most other card game shows could have been this short if the the meat of the action (the card games) wasn't just playing the game (which that type of format is good but it's great to break away from it every now and then). I like the new look of the creatures since they are basically toys they have a mechanical look to them which is a nice attention to detail. The characters are typical but likable and act more like actual kids, kinda like Craig of the creek. Over all this show is a lot more engaging and fun to watch than some other card game anime in past years like Scan 2 go and Monsuno that aired on Nicktoons. I look forward tot seeing the Bakugan brand grow.

Very funny, awesome battles, a good story that doesn't reveal to much early on, likeable characters, and good dialogue and character interaction, Bakugan: Battle Planet is everything you want in a reboot. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes Bakugan, game based animes, or even just action packed shows in general.
