* EvilWillFail: Their jealousy, mistrust, and [[ChronicBackstabbingOrder backstabbing]] of each other was the main contribution to their downfall. To wit, Gil murdered Kazarina out of blind jealousy, to which Barodius killed him in retaliation (along with Airzel), followed by Barodius ruthlessly taking out Stoica just because he was in the way while attacking Dragonoid Colosssus.






* SenselessSacrifice: When the Emperor [[spoiler:had Dharak attack Gill for murdering Kazarina, [[TakingTheBullet he jumped in front of the blast to protect Gill]]. Unfortunately, the attack was powerful enough to destroy them both]].

The end credits never list Freeman as Gus and the voice sounds *nothing* like him. Plus, he's an American voice actor and the Bakugan dub was done in Toronto. Anime News Network lists Chris Mc Cawley as the voice of Gus (https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=93507) so I'm saying this is an urban legend
