Merchandise Driven nonsense Warning: Spoilers
This cartoon is so bad that almost seem to be unreal.

Basically, it is bad rip-off of "Beyblade" (Which is also a pretty bad series) Here, instead of using spinning tops, the main characters "fight" using some kind of toy that look like a cross of a super-deformed Gundam with Bomberman, which also throw plastic balls. Wow. This series doesn't even bother to make any kind of sense, serving just an obvious advertisement to sell toys to the kids, pretty much like "Beyblade". Except that this somehow managed to be worse than that other series.

This is stupid series, with a stupid plot, lacking of any entertainment value. The animation is not that bad, but that's the only good thing that I could say about this.

It's A Beyblade Rip-off
arorashadow_20035 July 2005
I don't like BB, or this show. But it doesn't take a fan to realize, this is clearly a rip-off of this show. This show came out of nowhere one day, and I have little idea what it's about, and I frankly don't even care. Not only is this a really bad imitation, it's also comprise of the Worst Voice Cast, Ever in a dubbed Anime. Sure, hearing familiar VA's/VAC's is a common thing. Even though not all of them are terrific actors, it usually doesn't bother me so much to hear old VA's/VAC's. When I watch this show, I feel like I'm watching Digimon, all over again Brian Backok, Mona Marshall, Dave Whittenburg, I'm sure Brianne Siddal is there somewhere, I've heard Mimi, ugh. Truly terrible casting choices. No surprise seeing as it's coming from Teri-Lei O'mally (Who should have known better) And even though copying one style of a show is also common in Anime, this is perhaps the worst I have ever seen. It is confusingly similar to Beyblade. And I mean confusing. The only difference is they battle w/beads, instead of tops. The Animation is hardly worth to look at. Most of the main characters are Chibi style, and are rather repulsive. The only slight redemtion is the classic "Sibling Search" I love that. Other than that this show is Truly awful, and not worth the time to watch. Get if off the air ASAP, b/c there are better shows, than this.

Mindnumbingly bad.
tomimt4 June 2006
I need to vent out here for a bit: Sometimes you just see TV series, that are so mindnumbingly bad, that you feel an urge to scream and trash the TV set. Well all right, maybe 'Battle B-Daman' isn't exactly that bad, but it is damned near close.

It is apparent, that the show is made to market some toys, which I haven't seen anywhere by the way, but it isn't an excuse for this kind of crap. The animation is bad and the plot is non existing, just like in Pokemon and co., but with the difference, that the the show is even more brainless, if that is even possible. This time the kiddos fight against each other with B-Daman ball shooters in a wild west inspired surroundings. Some cat like creatures seem to explain the plot a lot, but then there's this huge black cat creature, which seems to be the bad guy. And the stupid kids just run around and enter the competitions to shoot out some balls.

The characters would be marginally interesting, like the schizophrenic kid, but it all really is flooded under the mindless mass of the show. Avoid like the plague.

A Terrible rip-off of Beyblade
kiti2222 July 2012
OK so i only watch 11 Episodes of this show when i was 14 and i've enjoyed it first

but when i saw that Shows Rating 2.5/10 on internet movie database i don't like that show

This cartoon is so bad that almost seem to be unreal.

Basically, it is bad rip-off of Beyblade

So, what's wrong with this show?

when I watch this show, I feel like I'm watching Digimon because of those voice actors.

Most of the main characters are Chibi style

Yamato is just like Daichi from Beyblade and he sounds like Takato from Digimon tamers but he was the most annoying main Protagonist in Animé History

He's Dumb, Kiddish, Dull, Stupid, Loud, silly, even worse than Alexis from Yu-Gi-Oh! GX and hes not very funny

even Ash from Pokemon was Stupid and Annoying now

the Plot Made no Sense

The Cartoon Sound Effects are useless

the Comedy is bad

the Jokes and Dialogues are Dumb

but with the difference, that the show is even more brainless,

if that is even possible. This time the kids fight against each other with B-Daman ball shooters in a wild west inspired surroundings

Some cat like creatures seem to explain the plot a lot, The idea of Animals acting like Humans that stolen from the Dragonball Series what is this is Animal Land?

is this show made for little kids?

it's like an animé version of final fantasy 9

It is confusingly similar to Beyblade. And I mean confusing.

The only difference is they battle with marble shooters, instead of tops.

but then there's this huge black cat creature, which seems to be the bad guy. the other main villain Marda B was a Giant Eye ball from one of the Lord of the Rings Movies and their plan is to you guessed it, take over the world.

whats good about the series was Gray&Enjyu&Cain who are the coolest Animé Characters around since Kai from beyblade

The animation is not that bad,

and the cool rock musics are so awesome

Boring, Unoriginal, not funny, Annoying, worse than Dinosaur King, and it makes the Original Beyblade Look like a Masterpiece

i rather go back in time to tell my 14 year old form not to watch battle b-daman and take battle b-daman off the air

then i can go back to the year 2002 to tell my 11 year old form to watch beyblade

then i can go back to the year 2005 to tell my 14 year old form not to buy some b-damans i rather watch power rangers Dino thunder then watching this show

but hey Medabots was 10x better than this show

Want a cartoon you can watch with your children or little brothers and sisters? try Pokémon (watch the first 9 seasons and avoid the diamond and pearl series at all costs), Yu-Gi-Oh! (watch the original Yu-Gi-Oh! Series) , Digimon (Watch the first 3 seasons), BeyBlade (season 1 was OK), Medabots (season 1&2 was better), Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, Dragon Ball Z Kai, Simpsons, Dexter's Lab, Cow and Chicken, PowerPuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, Rugrats, Spongebob SquarePants, Animaniacs, Taz Mania, Tom and Jerry, Lilo and Stitch the Series, Looney Tunes, The Adventures of Super Mario Brothers 3, Super Mario World, The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic SATAM,or Battle of the Planets Instead

The Best Show Ever!!!!!
spyder1jack5 July 2005
Battle B-Daman is an ancient marbles game containing five skills, Power, Accuracy, Control, Rapid Fire, and Balance.

At the beginning of the show Yamato Delgado (Main Character) is encountered by a mysterious loner named Gray. (2nd Character)(owns Chrome Zephyr Control Type) He busts in demanding Cobalt Blade (Power Type B-Daman). Yamato finds Cobalt Blade and B-Dabattles Gray. Later in the show they'll meet a guy named Bull (has tree personalities ~_~) and Terry. They'll also find the great B-Damaster Cat, Armada, and save Gray's missing sister, Liena!!! Talk about a cool show eh? if ya don't like it check it out!

okay

I thought it was going to be terrible because the commercials said Yamato wants to be the best b-daman player in the world.I was surprised.

This show is about a boy named Yamato who was raised by cats until he was four so he sorta has the abilities of a cat (he likes fish,he can land on four paws,etc.) When he was four,(forget her name) a woman took him in and helped him act like a human.Yamato has always dreamed of battling with b-daman and finally gets a b-daman of his own called Cobalt Blade.Together with his friends Gray,a tough guy who wants to free his sister,Bull,a sweet kid with an evil side and Terry,a cool ninga with a Scottish accent,Yamato might have a chance of becoming the best b-daman player.

Well I really don't like the plot of b-daman all that much.It's just a show where a kid tries to collect some items and want to be the best of mastering the items.Been there done that.There are already shows that have items that are collectible and main characters who want to be the best at using them.Ash wants to be the pokemon master,that boy wants to be the best duel master and that one kid wants to be a beyblade master.The reason I watch the show is because of the awesome characters on the show.Gray is probably my favorite because he has a bad side but shows his good side to Yamato.I really hope that Gray comes back from the bad side.If you have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about,you should see an episode for yourself.I guarantee a few good laughs. 6/10.
