The final season of Bakugan, Bakugan: Legends, is coming to UK TV screens on May Bank Holiday Monday 1st May.

Bakugan: Legends is the fifth season in the Bakugan series which will see the Awesome Brawlers return to face off against a cruel and merciless enemy new to the show. Created by Spin Master Entertainment, the action-packed animated season will make its UK linear premiere on children’s channel POP.

In the series finale, Earth and Vestroia have begun to separate, and this great planetary divide has unearthed a long imprisoned Bakugan, Horts Hanoj, who has seemingly unlimited strength and an insatiable appetite for terrestrial energy. Along with his army of giant drone-like Bakugan known as The Swarm, Hanoj intends to feed on both planets, leaving behind a trail of withering vegetation, drought and crumbling eroded land in his path.

Dan, Drago and their friends propose a Battle Judgement tournament for the fate of both worlds and Hanoj assembles a team of former enemies to represent him, leading the heroes to rely on past abilities and forms, as well as the mastery of the new and mysterious power of Nova.

Brought to screens by Spin Master Entertainment, the 26 episodes, each lasting 22 minutes, has been designed for 6-10 year olds.

The first Bakugan: Battle Planet season was launched in 2018 on Cartoon Network in light of Bakugan’s 10-year anniversary. Bakugan originally launched in 2008 and quickly captured the imagination of children around the world, becoming a global franchise and delivering multiple years of television content.
