I have posted this on the Toonami Forum (sorry about that. Wrong Forum.) But now i know that is in the right place:

The anime series Bakugan Battle Brawlers will become the first anime to be shown on the Pan-Euro version of Cartoon Network. The show premieres this Saturday, March 7th at 9.35am.

The thing i don't about this show is why are people saying that it "sucks". Is this show really that bad? I saw the promo here and i thought it could be a good anime show. I've seen good anime on YT but i don't think that this show is that bad...

Can any one explain that to me?
 
Its in the same category as Beyblade. Its a show about toys and competition that are more serious buisness than 'serious buisness' and where the main characters end up with the faith of the world in their hanRAB.

Its just a genre people don't like and its pretty fashionable to condemn it and bash it for its blatant merchandising.

Quite frankly, except for the early eps that are too boring and the game not being well explained right off the bat I thought its a decent show FOR ITS GENRE.

I certainly found it better than Battle B-Daman for exemple.
 
People dislike it because it's another mon show.

I personally like mon shows more than any other type of anime, so I like Bakugan as well. No, it's not the best thing I've ever seen, but I'll take it any day over any anime with loaRAB of filler.
 
It is no Digimon that is for sure, but is okay. It gets better as the show goes along, especially the last arc, when they fight bad guys without playing the game, which I never really understood to much.

The stronger your bakugan is, the more points you get, I guess.
 
Toyline themed shows are always going to be open to criticism, especially the ones that make an obvious toy far more important than it is. Stuff like Gundam has the right idea I think- make a story with some foreign yet tangible concept, than spin the merchandise off of that....though that's not to say it hasn't tried the other approach. There are generic shonen manga to push things like Gundam trading carRAB, gashapon figures and Gunpla customisation, all using the idea these things are the only hope of stopping an evil, powerful conspiracy.
 
Same here! Mon Shows are good, clean, unpretentious, compact and fun series. They're enjoyable shows to watch and usually end with a bang!

Nothing too ground breaking but they never pretend to be.
 
Lets see- they introduce a game without explaining the rules, introduce a villain that could be the most popular character but appears to have no serious vendetta against the Brawlers, have a "tricked player of the week" beginning, and basically take too long to introduce all the main stars. Once the series gets past episode 13/14 range, it actually becomes one of the better mon style shows, but the beginning loses a lot of people.
 
The "Tricked Player of the Week", they are like the human versions of Digimon that have either black gears or black rings on them, which was always in the first arc.

One thing that could have improved the story a bit, it make Masquerate a real person instead of some illusionary character that really didn't excist. He could have awsome, if he was a real person that for some real reason became evil. He has a no great back story, he just created by Naga to do his bidding. Not a bad thought making him the grandchild of the older evil human, but he should have been Alice's twin brother.
