What Is Bakugan?

Don’t be surprised if your pre-teen son or daughter asks you one day for a Bakugan game. You may not know exactly what Bakugan is, but a growing number of children consider the game a must-have form of entertainment.

Based on a Japanese anime TV show, Bakugan is a strategy game involving cards and marble-like spheres. Basically, young players first throw down playing cards. They then toss a sphere on top of these cards. This act causes the spheres to pop open, releasing the Bakugan characters hidden inside.

While the game may not make much sense to parents, it has become extremely popular among children, especially for those who are fans of the animated cartoon. Think of it as a latter version of a Pokemon trading card game.

The good news is that children can start playing the game without having to first purchase much equipment. All that’s needed are Bakugan cards and spheres. Children can get started in the game by simply purchasing a starter pack that contains three Bakugan spheres and three character cards.

The bad news, though, is that the game can be addicting. And fans of it will undoubtedly develop an appetite for acquiring new Bakugan spheres and card packs. In addition to the starter kit, fans of the game can purchase battle packs and booster packs.

They can also purchase the Bakugan arena and launcher sets. These, though, are not necessary to play the game.

Adults, of course, don’t have to understand the game to purchase it for their children. However, Bakugan is fairly simple to understand and learn. Players start the game by laying their cards out on a flat surface. They then roll their Bakugan spheres across the cards, which are made of metal.

If the sphere lands on the right card, it will stop and pop open, revealing a Bakugan character. If opponents’ spheres land on the same card, the characters inside these spheres engage in a simulated battle. The winner of these battles, determined by point values, wins the card in question.

Bakugan is a fun, harmless strategy game for children. Adults who watch the game may not ever know exactly what is happening. But they should expect one thing: The Bakugan trend will be around for many years.

Bakugan Warriors – The Cartoon, the Characters and the Game

Bakugan warriors are characters from the anime (Japanese animated cartoon) series Bakugan Battle Brawlers. This series features over 50 episodes and its cast comprehends eight main characters and dozens of secondary ones. The Bakugan franchise also includes an homonymous strategy game.

The anime’s main characters are not Bakugan warriors themselves, but rather masters to the actual Bakugan warriors. The latter are creatures who possess various types of supernatural powers; they are guardians and companions to the series’ human characters.

The term “Bakugan warriors” is often used to refer to the action figures which are part of a toy line released by Sega Toys and Spin Master. They are presented in the form of vibrant colored spheres. When these balls are rolled over Bakugan metal game cards, they turn into the creatures seen on the TV show.

There are several types of Bakugan warriors. Each of them is associated to a human character in the series. For instance, Pyrus Dragonoid is the guardian of Dan; Haos Tigrerra is the companion of Runo; Subterra Gorem is linked to Julie, and so on.

Just as seen in Pokémon, Digimon and other series/games that make use of magic creatures, Bakugan warriors can evolve, thus acquiring new and stronger abilities. Aquos Preyas Angelo, for example, is the evolved form of Marucho’s guardian Aquos Preyas. Similarly, Ventus Storm Skyress has evolved from Shun’s original companion Ventus Skyress.

Not all Bakugan warriors are friendly beings. The series’ first season features a Bakugan as its main villain. His name is Naga and he later evolves to Silent Naga. He also leads his own army of evil Bakugan, such as Aquos/Ventus Taygen, Ventus/Aquos Hairadee and Subterra/Haos Tricloid.

Those interested in playing Bakugan or purchasing the bakugan toys for their children can select either the Bakugan Starter Pack or the Bakugan Battle Pack. Both packs come with Bakugan warriors, metal card games and playing instructions. A Bakugan Arena is available as well and should be purchased separately.

Due to its highly entertaining potential, the world of Bakugan warriors can appeal to children and adults at once. The little ones will love to play Bakugan with their friends. The grown ups can have a fun time collecting the addictive action figures.

Bakugan Balls

Bakugan has become one of the hottest games for preteen children. Adults, then, shouldn’t be surprised when their children request Bakugan balls for holidays and birthdays.

Bakugan balls are marble-like spheres that hide characters from the poplar Japanese animated Bakugan TV show. When these balls are thrown, they pop open, revealing the characters – in classic fighting poses – hidden inside.

The Bakugan balls are one of the main components of the strategy game. The other essential pieces of equipment for the game are the metal cards that depict various characters from the television show.

Bakugan is fairly simple to play. Children first lay down their metal character cards on a flat surface such as the top of a table. Next, they throw out their Bakugan balls. When these land on an appropriate card, they burst open, revealing the character inside.

If two Bakugan balls land on the same card, a simulated battle takes place. The winner of this battle claims the card.

The good news for parents is that Bakugan balls and playing cards are relatively inexpensive. Parents can purchase starter kits for their children: These include three Bakugan balls and three playing cards. This is all the equipment children need to get started with the game.

Of course, there is a downside. Much like Pokemon and other trading-card games, children will quickly request a greater number of Bakugan balls and character cards. Parents can purchase booster packs and battle packs that provide additional Bakugan balls and character cards.

The game also offers a host of additional equipment. A special launcher can send Bakugan balls forcefully into battle. A Bakugan arena, also available for purchase, can provide the perfect home base for battles.

None of this additional equipment is needed to play the game. But be warned that children quickly become addicted to Bakugan. They’ll want as much extra accessories as parents are willing to buy.

Now that you know the basics of Bakugan balls and the strategy game for which they are used, you don’t have to feel so out of touch next time your son or daughter drags you to the toy store.
