Draw Bakugan

If you're a Bakugan fan, you've probably tried to draw them at some point. It's not too easy to draw any of the Bakugan characters. I've tried a few times and I've decided that I had better stick to drawing Pokemon.

Here's a few YouTubes done by people who don't have the same problem as me. They're excellent artists and their Bakugan look great.

As for me, I think I better buy this book about How To Draw Bakugan

Bakugan Episode 1

Here's the episode that started it all. If you came late to the Bakugan party, then you're probably playing catch up with the TV Show. Well here's the first episode on YouTube (it's in three parts).

Bakugan Opening Naration

This is basically the Bakugan primer. It's the narration that starts off each show and gives first time viewers an idea of what's going on.

I know this is going to sound weird but one day my whole world changed. You see cards starting dropping from the sky, coming down like rain. At first we didn't know where they were all coming from or who sent them. We only knew that they were more than just ordinary playing cards.

And it was happening all around the world. In the North and the South.

They landed everywhere. Together with my new online friends from around the world, we invented a wicked new game we called Bakugan. That's when the power of the cards was revealed. Each one held it's own battling beast which came to life when you threw it down. The Battles where intense. and if you chose the wrong card, you lost it and the beast inside.

But that's only half the story. Another even bigger battle was taking place in a parallel universe called Vestroia.

My name is Dan and together with my friends Runo, Marucho, Julie, Mr hot shot himself Shun and Alice.

We are the Bakugan Battle Brawlers.

Bakugan Opening - Japanese Version

Here's the Japanese version of the Bakugan opening. Catchy but the English version is much more dark and edgy.

Bakugan Theme Song

The Bakugan Theme Song plays at the beginning of every episode and it usually gets my son all fired up for the show. The creators of the show were trying to go a little more edgy than something like the Pokemon Theme song and I think they succeeded.

Bakugan Theme Song Lyrics
What are ya gonna do?
The odds are stacked against you,
Back against the wall,
You gotta give it your all,
This is the final stand,
The powers in you hand!
Two worlds collide,
On the inside,
You got to fight for what's right,
Before it's gone,
Gone, gone,
This is Bakugan!
