Anime: B-Legend! Battle B-Daman

This is the first and last time I review an anime based on just 20% of the series. One reason would be that I fear that I would lose my IQ if I watch just one more episode of this bucket of puke and I wish to issue a warning to anyone that has the death wish of watching this. In each and every aspect, this anime is the absolute worst of everything I've seen so far, and by no means have I seen few anime.

Not that this is settled...let's have fun...

Animation
Wow...the animation is impressive. Impressively dumb that is.
I see that the producers tried their very best to make the anime stand out in the crowd of horrifyingly looking anime that 2004 has produced.
Well, please give a hand to the producers because they managed to make it stand out. It stands out so much that I get a weird cramp in my brain whenever I see this anime in action.
The characters all look really COOL I can assure you...they have disproportional bodies, no noses, COOL outfits adorned with skulls and belts and other very COOL gadgets...and I should not forget that they are also kids that have battle scars that surely make them COOL. And did I mention the wonderful cat-creatures that look like some retarded child's drawing? I did now.
...*silence*...I'm trying my best to find something good to say about the animation. Thing is...I can't say anything good without being a complete liar. There are repetitive character models, boring backgrounds, stupid CGI and retarded character models. What is there to say good about it? The only character models that don't look retarded wind up as looking generic in the end so that falls as well.

And a special place in my heart is held by the models of the toys that this anime advertises. The said toys are modeled after the SD Gundams and they hold the special place in my heart because they're the most ridiculous thing I've seen since Beyblade. And they also have COOL names: Cobalt Blade, Wind-something...bleah, I can't even remember them. But I remember this: they were COOL.

Actually, this whole anime is ridiculously COOL...bow down to my great heart from the mercy of which I am writing this warning to all anime fans out there: If you value your eye-sight, your sanity and your IQ then don't even look at pictures from this anime. It's so COOL that you'll get a brain freeze.

Story
Ahem...moving on to the story.
Story story story...what story?
Have you ever watched a commercial anime that was centered on some weird item that evolved into some sort of international sport? Well, if you did, the story in this anime is exactly the very same thing.
Some generic band of characters forms up in the first episodes and then begins to travel the world while one of them has the very original wish of becoming the very best player of that retarded international sport. Sound familiar?
Not yet? How about the fact that the said character is actually quite often surpassed by one of his friends and he remains dumbfounded at the event?
It still doesn't sound familiar?
Then perhaps the fact that the said character is almost always hungry, has spiky hair and is very loud will jolt your memory.

If this still doesn't sound familiar than you can consider yourself among the few lucky bastards that have never been annoyed by such creations of evil. You lucky dog you.

Final word: the story sucks.

Character
And the characters...
Such amazing pieces of cardboard should have never graced the pitiful world of anime. I mean it...such characters transcend this plane of existence and we, mortals, are too stupid to pierce that cardboard shell and see how very substantial the characters are.

Or perhaps the characters are just filthy stereotypes for this genre of anime and there really isn't anything good about them.
But no, I really believe that we mortals are at fault for not being able to comprehend them.

Side note: The only reason I gave a 2 to the characters is because there's a guy that has a triple personality. That was stupidly amusing in some moments.

Value
As per value...this anime should be locked away in some titanium reinforced vault, wrapped in a billion chains and dropped in the deepest, darkest hole in the ocean with 200 tons of steel attached to it.
I can't even begin to imagine what child would be idiotic enough to even consider this anime as being entertaining. Pokemon was funny at its beginnings but this is simply STUPID. May God have mercy on the soul of the person that came up with this idea.

Side note: I didn't rate the sound simply because I've watched a terrible Romanian dub so I won't comment on the voices. The opening song was fun though.
