List of Bakugan Battle Brawlers Episodes

Bakugan Battle Brawlers

This is the list of episodes for the Japanese anime television series Bakugan Battle Brawlers.

The anime series was produced by TMS Entertainment and Japan Vistec under the direction of Mitsuo Hashimoto. It first premiered in in Japan on TV Tokyo on April 5, 2007 and was rebroadcast six day later on BS Japan. Nelvana Limited produced the English version and the series premiered on the Canadian network Teletoon on July 8, 2007 and then on Cartoon Network on February 24, 2008.

After the first season proved unsuccessful in Japan, the following seasons were first aired in the U.S. and Canada as test runs before being brought to Japan. New Vestroia proved much more popular, but the more critical receptions of Gundalian Invaders and Mechtanium Surge resulted in the last season never reaching Japanese broadcast.
