this is an enormously new and inactive blog (made only because i am incapable of not making a new blog for every interest I have) but I am so bothered by the voice acting in Bakugan Battle Brawlers: Defenders of the Core (2010, Xbox 360) that I have to come out here and say it
i have quite literally no problem with bad graphics, video game graphics especially. honestly, for a low-budget 2010 game, the graphics esp for the xbox were quite good. however, the voice acting, especially, ESPECIALLY for mylene and dan, was absolutely ABYSMAL. to the point that i carve time out of my day to log into my shit ass little bakugan blog that i have yet to create a post for-- the FIRST post i make myself is about how bad the Defenders of the Core voice acting is.

Hello
Elfin is best girl
Tumblr media
DEFENDERS OF THE CORE i loved that game so much when i first got a copy of it (still have it too)
Also fr, she's just a big Sailor Moon reference to me (though I prefer Percival over the rest of the OG Resistance's bakugan)

if you wrote NV what would you change in the script ?
just listing a few points to fix my major gripes:
the bakugan did not appear on vestal because of dr. michael's portal shenanigans. dr. clay came upon new vestroia during his research, and found an entirely different species which the monarchy could exploit in different ways. they colonized the bakugan's home planet under the guise of "finding a solution to the vestal overpopulation problem," captured the bakugan and brainwashed them into a primal state similar to that of the bakugan who were corrupted by the minus power in s1. this would serve to prove to the vestals that bakugan are mindless and aggressive beings that are too dangerous to roam about.
the vestal colonies settled on new vestroia a year prior to the start of season 2. during this time, they captured numerous bakugan and brainwashed them, set up tournaments to find worthy vexos candidates, and had these vexos members hunt down the six legendary warrior bakugan (who had started to fight back) while also entertaining the vestal populous with bakugan death matches in order to further distract them from the truth.
dan, runo and alice go to nv. runo and alice are more relevant to bring into the resistance than shun and marucho. dan can also be omitted while baron and ace switch to pyrus and aquos respectively and the ventus spot would be left open. as for their bakugan, alice would be reunited with reaper who had yet to be captured and i like the idea of runo using rabeeder who has become very vengeful after failing to protect tricloid from the vexos.
the vexos don't start out the season by constantly losing to the brawlers. the alpha city tournament should really be their first major loss while the first couple of battles in s2 have the resistance struggling against the vexos, to really show how formidable our new antagonists are.
there's not just a focus on destroying the dimension controllers but also spreading the truth to the vestals about what the monarchy is doing. i imagine that the resistance has a hard time doing that at first because they're wanted in all three colonies and thus have a hard time getting the truth out to the people but after the fall of the first dimension controller, enough vestals are convinced that word starts to travel and the seeds of distrust towards the vexos have been sown. public opinion slowly but surely switches in favor of the resistance as the plot of nv1 progresses but the resistance has to prioritize getting the truth out alongside their goal to destroy the dimension controllers.
the sibling rivalry between mira and keith needs to be emphasized. mira eventually realizes that the brother she used to look up to is a lost cause and that she needs to stop him to protect the bakugan and her home. keith as spectra would be quick to dismiss her as an opponent because he has always bested her in the past, always been the smarter one, the stronger one. but mira proves through her tenacity and courage that she'll be the final obstacle in his way, that she can be the shield that defends new vestroia and vestal from his tyranny. she will force him to take her seriously. more attention should be given to the dynamic of these estranged siblings, each leading a faction diametrically opposed to the other, to the fact that mira knows keith's tactics and vice versa, that keith has always had the upperhand in previous battles but that mira is slowly growing and getting better.
more focus should be given to how spectra plans to conquer vestal and less should be on making helios the ultimate bakugan. at a certain point, spectra's only goal seems to be upgrading helios and defeating drago at any cost. i'm well aware that spectra needs drago's perfect core energy to become truly invincible but there are only so many times spectra can battle dan before it gets tiresome. his plan to take over vestal ends up being put on the backburner as a result and that's an issue. spectra and gus have the perfect opportunity to seize control of vestal after zenoheld and the vexos have been ousted for their crimes on new vestroia.
the creation of the bt system and spectra's rise to power in vestal allows for both the resistance and the battle brawlers to be relevant to the story of nv2. the attribute energies can be given to the original six brawlers while the vestal battle brawlers will focus their energy on the spectra and gus situation on vestal. this way mira will deal with spectra and dan will deal with hydron and zenoheld.
volt defects during the bt system arc and lync defects much later. don't think the alternative will need to be a thing.
i don't wanna get into the finer details of a potential rewrite so that's about the majority of what i'd change.

Yeah no Gus was SO obbious. Meanwhile Spectra was subtle as all hell. Even in the show, some of his scenes were cut that implied it in EN (i.e. during Gus being gone, he misses hi during lab work)
I will never forgive the EN dub during the reveal scene. Supposedly in JP Gus says "MY master spectra" and I have never recovered since
BUT OMG SHE IS SO PRETTY,,, I adore her design so much, I have way too many OC ideas (one based on the Battle Brawlers and Defenders of The Core games), brawler and Bakugan alike
If you even wanna infodump about your ocs (Bakugan or otherwise),,,, I would be happy to listen (read???) I love ocs so much
Oh yeah! I've seen so much cut shit that implies Spectra's more subtle crush on Gus, and I haaaaaate Canada for that. (No real hate to Canada)
Thank you so much!! She's such a special OC of mine that I haven't really thought about in a long time. She's a favorite, of course. One day, I'll have to info dump about her! I'd love to talk Bakugan with you forever, actually 🤣

would you believe me if I said there’s misogyny in the dvd releases? dvds 1 to 4 have the MCs boys on them but volumes 5 and 6 have montages on them. runo and julie don’t have one we can’t have nice things I guess
i would because that's how marketing with a male audience in mind works lmao i'm sure that if some of the dvds had julie in her all-pink girly outfit a lot of parents would've said no.

these are the western english dub dvds though. the japanese release has dvds with runo, julie, and alice with two versions for julie and runo and one for alice. all 6 of the brawlers get 2 each, with the exception of alice because she shares it with masquerade.

again it's just interesting to me how the girls were removed out of the western marketing once they realized how profitable bakugan was overseas, particularly to young boys. and as research has shown, parents of young boys are far less likely to buy their sons gender-neutral/feminine toys and merchandise than they would buy masculine things for their daughters (this was also personally true for me, as my parents were fine with buying me bakugan but they would never buy my brother a barbie). this eventually stretched into the show itself in writing off the original three girls in new vestroia and downplaying any feminine bakugan they already had. this is also evident in the video games (legacy series, not sure about the reboot) - you can't play as a girl in both the battle brawlers game and defenders of the core.
the economics behind bakugan plays a large factor into the show and the merchandise, because the show is basically an advertisement for the merch. it was created with selling toys in mind, and the toy industry plays into the gender binary as it's an important part of the psychology of our society. to say that bakugan was not written to be actively misogynist is incorrect, because it leans into misogynist writing especially in season 2, all for money. even season 1 isn't perfect even if it's objectively better than the rest of the seasons on that front.

obtained the most cursed fuckin knowledge. fire emblem engage is one of my favouritest games of all time, right? so im looking through the voice actors out of curiosity, just for funsies.
now tell me WHY this guy:
Tumblr media
has the SAME voice actor that ace, shadow, spectra, and wilda do in defenders of the core. the absolute whiplash that gave me. it feels like cursed knowledge somehow that a game made in 2023 shares voice actors with fuckin. bakugan.

Blaze's tattoos: the six attributes

Doesn't like to talk about 'em for personal reasons. Tattoos glow in certain conditions. They usually are not visible unless closely looked at.
