Also emperor Barodius who burnt Gill alive (for Kazarina), Magmel and WISEMAN were just as goated (well maybe not as much as Spectra but definitely on Masquerade's level) This show just had GREAT villains EVERY season, heck Coredegon even destroyed the universe Masquerade was a boy in a world of boys meanwhile emeperor Barodius was a MAN in a world of men. A world of men because Dan was much more mature, wise and understood bakugan better than in season 1 and how can I ever forget Barodius' best line (towards Dan in the last battle): "You have NO vision, I on the other hand am a COMPLETELY different story. A boy like you can NEVER be king, not now, NOT EVER. You'll never take the power of the sacred orb, as long as I'm ALIVE." Can we stop underrating this GOD of a villain, meanwhile Masquerade was just Naga's servant because of Naga corrupting him and his goal was what - to become the best brawler? To fulfill Naga's wish by doing every single battle instead of Naga? Those were kitty games compared to other villains after season 1 (but who even watched them after season 2, apparently not many)
@IcycleBicycle 1) barodius was a walmart king cold nuff said ,he was basically zenoheld but worse and so is his twelve orders.... 2) magmel however was impressive ,a psychic who haunts and feeds on your nightmares ,too bad they'll had to give dan his usual plot armour to make mag mel lose in the most cringiest way ,so much for being an awesome villian 🤦🏻♂️ 3) cordegon and wiseman were however mid level villians ,they had no flare like the previous masked villians ,the best cordegon could do at his strongest was to destroy an island ,even nappa (not the tfs one) was far more intimating and more terrifying in power than the duo despite being a forgotten villian in his verse.... 4) masquerade is a girl pretending to be a boy and mind you masquerade was also brain washed by naga so he couldn't go up against him untill dan freed him ,speaking of which masquerade was the true OG goated villian of the entire franchise (spectra in s2 was more or less a copy paste of masquerade) as he single handedly lifted the show on his shoulders unlike dan who was bratty ,arrogant ,dumb and full of himself not to forget his personality worsened as the series progressed and with the amount of pis plot armour given to him to make him the goku and naruto of his verse (and failed miserablly) without really understanding why goku and naruto were actually famous to begin with... The series overall worsened when masquerade was written off and forgotten which is why bakugan never managed to come close to any of pokemon and it's ripoffs levels..... 5) dan is NOT a man but a man-child in the body of a child ,he's a cheap knock-off and downgrade of takato matsuki from digimon tamers (especially the looks ,poor takato doesn't even know a hideous copy of him even exists 🤮) ,shun and marucho were more matured and hard-working than dan ever would be ,even masquerade and spectra were better written than dan despite being villians ,dan is a soyboy who is worse than yamcha.... 6) not people's fault that they didn't watch the series post season 2 given how unoriginal and bland it gotten mid s2.....
Masquerade: 😡 THAT’S IT!! (breathe heavily) YOU’RE STARTING TO GET ON MY NERVES DAN! You may think you have a chance to beat me, but up till now you’ve just been playing lucky. You’re constantly getting in my way DAN! And my patience is at an END! YOU ARE THORN IN MY SIDE AND I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU! 🤬 (he rips his coat) BUT THAT ALL STOPS HERE AND NOW, I’M GOING TO DESTROY YOU!! DO YOU HEAR ME DAAAAAAN!!!! 7:55
as someone who watched the show without ever playing the game its werid how its a good and bad thing of not having them explain that the card effect do sometimes it really does feel like they are just making the cards up
sometimes you see different boosts with the same cards. At some points, you see it go up by 100 and later on, that same card gives 200. Stuff like that. But it was still a good show
I like how he just goes "lol, no" and just retreats in the way that is intentionally the most awkward for everyone else involved. Very rude but also hilarious.
I wonder why Dan wanted Masquerade to get rid of his launcher gauntlet😅 in fact I think the gauntlets in general were just to market the toys and offered no real competitive advantage
When i played with these as a child, the "competitive" play was to roll the bakugan and hope it opens on the card you wanted it to since it usually opened on the first card. Well with those launchers you could skip a card and was kinda like a "cheat". It was kinda weird since most of us could throw the bakugan, but none of us really did. I'm not entirely sure about this but it could be a fair duel etiquette, like when 2 people duel with a weapon and they just decide to fight empty handed mid fight
It’s the ultimate battle inside Wardington Stadium, where Dan Kuso meets up against Masquerade for the final Bakugan battle Dan Kuso: You here, Masquerade? Masquerade: Well, if it isn’t Dan the man. I wasn’t expecting you. But then again, I suppose I might as well steal your Bakugan. Meanwhile, Shun, Runo, Julie, and Marucho were in the stands awaiting the final battle between two brawlers Marucho: This should be an interesting battle. Masquerade is ranked #1. Shun Kazami: You’re right. And since I lost to Dan, his ranking moves up to #2. Runo Misaki: Huh? I’ll check. (checks her BakuPod) Yep. That’s exactly what my BakuPod shows. Julie: Whoa. This is gonna be the ultimate showdown then. Back on the stadium field: Dan Kuso: Masquerade, how in the world did you end up battling for Naga anyway? Don’t you realize he’s trying to destroy our world and his own? We should be fighting on the same side, not as enemies! Masquerade: I only take orders from Naga. Dan Kuso: You’re on the wrong team, Masquerade! Masquerade: Are you through grandstanding, Dan? Dan Kuso: What? Masquerade: I’m tired of your babbling. Let’s get this over with! Are you ready to play? Dan Kuso: (battle ready) Man, he’s so done! Oh yeah, I’m ready to play! And don’t come crying to me when you lose! Dan/Masquerade: FIELD OPEN!
No, you can use 1 ability and second if it's the fusion ability, but drago's boosted dragon, delta dragonoid and ultimate dragonoid abilities increases his power level for several fights
@ДредВинг-ь7ж Well, more precisely, the limit is you can only load 3 abilities for a battle. Dan and Masquerade got to use theirs an additional time because they reset since they tied 3 times
why ya gringos wanted everything to be Pokémon back in the day , like there similar but is like every bloody dub wanted to be that first season of Pokémon stuf that even wasent remotly similar even , is just weird
We’re not gonna sit here and act like Alice’s plot twist wasn’t the craziest thing we ever saw as a kid!!
The crash out of Masquerade needs to be studied lmaoo Dan was really his opp
Spectra and masquerade was peak
Fact
Legit they were peak for bakugan villains and rivals
Awesome
Also emperor Barodius who burnt Gill alive (for Kazarina), Magmel and WISEMAN were just as goated (well maybe not as much as Spectra but definitely on Masquerade's level)
This show just had GREAT villains EVERY season, heck Coredegon even destroyed the universe
Masquerade was a boy in a world of boys meanwhile emeperor Barodius was a MAN in a world of men.

3) cordegon and wiseman were however mid level villians ,they had no flare like the previous masked villians ,the best cordegon could do at his strongest was to destroy an island ,even nappa (not the tfs one) was far more intimating and more terrifying in power than the duo despite being a forgotten villian in his verse....
4) masquerade is a girl pretending to be a boy and mind you masquerade was also brain washed by naga so he couldn't go up against him untill dan freed him ,speaking of which masquerade was the true OG goated villian of the entire franchise (spectra in s2 was more or less a copy paste of masquerade) as he single handedly lifted the show on his shoulders unlike dan who was bratty ,arrogant ,dumb and full of himself not to forget his personality worsened as the series progressed and with the amount of pis plot armour given to him to make him the goku and naruto of his verse (and failed miserablly) without really understanding why goku and naruto were actually famous to begin with...

voice acting is amazing

2 brawlers put up entertaining fight and it was well done and 2 guys Earned respect
15:02 Naga absorbed the Silent Core, in which Michael becomes Hal-G, with his granddaughter Alice also became Masquerade.
There is a secret?
as someone who watched the show without ever playing the game
its werid how its a good and bad thing of not having them explain that the card effect do

Masquerade carried the show
I love YOU masquerade..
I remember this being much more intense when I was a kid.
12:47 scar vs simba
2:12 why his hydranoid flexing
My favorite childhood memory
12:50 reminder Dan believes in gender equality
I forgot how hard that intro song went
Nostalgia
The fact masquerade was alice the whole time is the weirdest plot twist of the show
13:03 Is there an ost for this part?
Edit: Found it!
I wonder why Dan wanted Masquerade to get rid of his launcher gauntlet😅 in fact I think the gauntlets in general were just to market the toys and offered no real competitive advantage

I wish both Hydranoid and this form of Drago fought in the first half of the New Vestroya, they would be beasts there

Dan Kuso: You’re on the wrong team, Masquerade!
Masquerade: Are you through grandstanding, Dan?
Dan Kuso: What?
Masquerade: I’m tired of your babbling. Let’s get this over with! Are you ready to play?
Dan Kuso: (battle ready) Man, he’s so done! Oh yeah, I’m ready to play! And don’t come crying to me when you lose!
Dan/Masquerade: FIELD OPEN!

Dan kuso-Lightning McQueen
Masquerade-Jackson Storm
@paulchosen6889why?
Raw aggression 🔥
Has someone noticed that the rule is that you can use only one Ability but activated 2?
No, you can use 1 ability and second if it's the fusion ability, but drago's boosted dragon, delta dragonoid and ultimate dragonoid abilities increases his power level for several fights
So basically plot armor))@@ДредВинг-ь7ж
@ДредВинг-ь7ж Well, more precisely, the limit is you can only load 3 abilities for a battle. Dan and Masquerade got to use theirs an additional time because they reset since they tied 3 times
13:07 *Masquerade doesn't activate an ability here so he can lose for plot*
He didn't load Chaos Leap Sting for this fight, instead he loaded in Destroy Vanish, Death Trident, and Final Demolition
Darkus is Dark Bakugan and one of the greatest Bakugan
So the one behind the mask of Masquerade was really Alice?
Yes and it makes sense plot wise
why @@Austeja608
@@jmgonzales7701 watch season 1 fully
Yep
7:56 Epic!
10:45
11:20 😂😂
I wish masquerade fought a battle with hydranoid in new vestroia against spectra
8:12 Dan kuso his a best Bakugan ever ❤😊
I Knew it Alice Is Masquerade And Leonidas Right 👍
why ya gringos wanted everything to be Pokémon back in the day , like there similar but is like every bloody dub wanted to be that first season of Pokémon
stuf that even wasent remotly similar even , is just weird
so dark energy makes someone a femboy?
yeah also this math works in real life too. ( not kidding )
@@souzetsu_swx talking about math did you know that there was a guy whom proved 1+1 in fact equals to the number 2 in 300 pages or so
Apparently so. I asked my trans friend about it and they said a Christian family member accused them of using a dark ritual.
Reverse trap actually
