Line #4 Trivia/Bakugan


1	* ActingForTwo: When Mira goes to Earth and meets Dan's mom. Creator/AlysonCourt voices both. Also, Creator/JulieLemieux, Creator/RonPardo and ESPECIALLY Creator/DanPetronijevic voice sufficiently many characters that there's bound to be at least one example for each.
2	%%** Any time Fabia Sheen battles Kazarina in the Latin American dub. (Blanked out as it's a ZCE with no actor info)
3	%%* AnimeFirst
4	* CashCowFranchise: An obvious trope considering how they promote a lot of the monsters once. It's also TMS's fourth (alongside Literature/{{Anpanman}}, ''Manga/CaseClosed'' and Franchise/LupinIII).
5	* CowboyBeBopAtHisComputer:
6	** Some ''Mechtanium Surge'' episodes had incorrect synopses on US TV listings. They implied that Paige and Rafe would be returning and that Wiseman was really Emperor Barodious.
7	** Some VOD listings for the episode "Countdown to Doomsday" incorrectly state that the outcome of the battle between Mechtavius Destroyer and Dragonoid Destroyer hinged on the latter's loyalty to the Brawlers as Mechtavius Destroyer attempted to lure him to the evil side. While he (Mechtavius) did attempt that and won the battle, Dragonoid Destroyer didn't question his loyalty for even a second, telling him (Mechtavius) off immediately. It's not revealed until the next episode why he lost, but it's because he was holding back 30% of his power.
8	* DirectedByCastMember: The Canadian French dub for the original anime was directed by Creator/NicolasCharbonneauxCollombet and Sébastien Reding, who also voiced Dan and Marucho respectively.
9	* DyeHard: Spectra's not a natural blond. His hair is shown to be pink in flashbacks.
10	* ForeignDubAsBasis: The Arabic dub of ''Anime/BakuganBattleBrawlers'' is based on the Creator/{{Nelvana}} English dub. It changed the main character's "Americanized" names to Arabic ones.
11	* InternationalCoproduction: The later seasons of the original series, as well as ''[[Anime/BakuganBattlePlanet Battle Planet]]'', are Japanese/Canadian co-productions with Creator/{{Nelvana}}, Creator/TMSEntertainment and toy company Spin Master. Creator/ManOfActionStudios also assists in the production of ''Battle Planet''.
12	* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Insofar as the English dub is concerned. The first season was released on DVD in all English speaking territories and ''New Vestroia '' was released on DVD in Canada and Australia. But the last two seasons, ''Gundalian Invaders '' and ''Mechtanium Surge '', were never released on DVD. The series was available for digital purchase as it aired on Cartoon Network, but was eventually removed. As of this writing, it's available on Roku Channel, Tubi TV, and Nelvana's own "Cartoon Power Up!" channel on [=YouTube=].
13	* LateExportForYou: ''New Vestroia'' combines this with ShortRunInPeru by not airing in ''Japan'' until a year after it aired in Canada and the United States, same goes with ''Gundalian Invaders''.
14	* NoExportForYou: It is very likely that TMS Entertainment will never release ''Mechtanium Surge'' in Japan due to how bad Gundalian Invaders performed on Japanese TV. Instead, Japan got a more 'lighthearted' reboot named ''[=BakuTech=]! Bakugan'' and got its sister series ''Anime/{{Zoobles}}'' to fill its airing spot shoes. This made a lot of Japanese Bakugan Fans disappointed.
15	** However, this was averted with the original dub of ''Mechtanium Surge'', which has been available to stream via Bilibili since September 2018, but only for users of that website. The episodes themselves, however, have their OP and ED taken from the second season.
16	* TheOtherDarrin:
17	** There are several characters in the English dub have more then one actor, but isn't that noticeable (nor are they credited for that matter), Naga in particular had three.
18	** The Brazilian dub is notably inconsistent and characters have multiple voice actors throughout seasons. Alice, for example, had more than ''four'' different voice actreses through the entire run of ''New Vestroia''. Another notable example is Dan, whose voice was changed halfway through ''Gundalian Invaders'' much to the surprise of fans.
19	* ShortRunInPeru: Sort of. ''Battle Brawlers'' episodes aired first in their country of origin, Japan. ''New Vestroia'' episodes also air in one of their countries of origin...Canada, home to North American distributor Creator/{{Nelvana}}. ''New Vestroia'' aired in Japan A YEAR after it was shown in North America.
20	* WhatCouldHaveBeen: According to Jason Deline during an interview, Lyon Smith (Masquerade's voice actor) was originally supposed to voice Drago and even recorded few episodes. The crew thought that his voice didn't fit with Drago's character, so they went with Jason Deline instead.
