As Marutti pointed out, Bottleman not having any news in the Corocoro means it's probably settling down for the franchise ending, especially with these small releases. However as Bottleman has already proven, B-Daman is extremely popular. So I hope they actually go to make a proper B-Daman generation after Bottleman ends. It's practically flushing money down the toilet to not make another B-Daman generation, or Bottleman season at least but that seems to be ending.

i been hearing so much about Bottleman i need to check it out

Everyone, including bigdaddyjoe, announcement. Marutti is 100% right, there is no new ad in the Corocoro. It simply is the same ad, slightly changed. This cannot mean good things if Bottleman has no content and has to reuse ads. Marutti would know best, and he says this is a sign on a series declining, meaning it will probably ends soon.

I wouldn't worry about having no more B-Daman content soon. Bottleman has proven B-Daman is still extremely popular, so not making another spiritual successor, or just another generation of B-Daman, is basically flushing money down the toilet.

Actually, Bottleman ISN'T dying. Because after I looked up why BOT-17 wasn't listed on Takara-Tomy Mall, it's because BOT-17's release date is not May 29, 2021 and that it's actual release date is June 2021 ( https://www.carousell.com.hk/p/pre-order...076837549/ ). As for BOT-18, BOT-19, BOT-20 and BOT-21, BOT-18 (Official Cap Set Vol.2) is gonna be released in June 2021 ( https://www.carousell.com.hk/p/pre-order...1076838310 ), BOT-19 (New Starter Bottleman) is gonna be released in July 2021 ( https://www.carousell.com.hk/p/pre-order...1076841509 ), BOT-20 (New Starter Bottleman) is gonna be released in August 2021 ( https://www.carousell.com.hk/p/pre-order...1076845991 ) and BOT-21 (New Starter Bottleman) is gonna be released in September 2021 ( https://www.carousell.com.hk/p/%E9%A0%90...1076846449 ).

So, NO Bottleman isn't dying and Bottleman's World Championship Arc is still gonna be happening possibly this summer!

You are right on that part; however that doesnt discount the fact that bottleman sales are extremely poor, with shops in japan not restocking them at all

Yeah, after the initial big boom of Bottleman it's really died down. More sales now is just milking a dead cow.

The reason it died so quickly is that they aren’t doing enough unique gimmicks. For B-Daman every product had a new interesting gimmick. Like the Jet Core. Also, customisation that matters. There are Bottleman parts yes, but lots of them just feel like carbon copies of the other. That was only present in early Cross Fight releases.

B-Daman type toys have potential in today’s toy market, but they need a different approach.

---

If they keep this up, there’s no future for Bottleman. Just pack it up cause it won’t be selling as well. However, what’s important is that TT is aware that B-Daman can still sell like wildfire.

BOT-17 "Wonder Grape Homura" (Power type) (Release date: June 26, 2021)




BOT-18 "Official Cap Set (Vivid Color Ver.)" (Release date: June 26, 2021)

BOT-18 "Official Cap Set (Vivid Color Ver.)" (Release date: June 26, 2021)

Wouldn't be surprised if the rest of the products are recolors based on what we found going on with the Corocoro last month. Wonder Grape does look nice with this color scheme though.

---

It does say they're starters but even recolors are listed as starters so there's still a chance no real new Bottleman will be releasing.

---

It's not like they would be losing anything, since the toys aren't selling well rn.

Teaser for BOT-19 (Skip to 9:00)

Teaser for BOT-19 (Skip to 9:00)

It looks nice but there’s 0 reason to get it. Gyokurock already has a barrel, and a barrel is that dudes main and only gimmick. Guess they’re running low on ideas. Also, that fact that this doesn’t have an original gimmick leads me to believe it won’t show up in the anime, meaning no new anime content. Why would they show off a barrel, they already have.

Actually Gyokulock's gimmick doesn't even count as a "Barrel", it's literally just 2 swords. Also I'm extremely positive that BOT-19 will appear in the anime ( https://minizzzzzz.hatenablog.com/entry/.../15/222615 ). BTW BOT-19 is currently rumored to be named after Gabunomi Freedom Energy.

Don't jump between hurdles, it's the exact same things. 2 walls on the side help direct the cap on a more straight path. Also, Gabunomi Freedom Energy is an awful name, why is it so long?

Just call it Gabunomi. Doing it word for word makes an unappealing name.

I don't think they would actually call it Gabunomi Freedom Energy completely. Having the same "gimmick" does not justify it not being in the anime.

It doesn’t have any unique features though, so it’s gonna be boring to see.

Mmm maybe for you, but we've barley seen what it can do besides the more proper barrel.

Gyokurock's barrel doesn't do anything. It bends as the cap shots out. Having a solid barrel will be better for accuracy than the swords.

Barrels barely do anything to begin with though. If you want an actual straight shot, just get good stabilisers and a good sight. Most of the time they’re pretty useless to begin with, unless they have some other use like Slot Beedle’s.

The colors look interesting. Though this might be a hit or miss. If the barrel isn't good that makes this Bottleman have no unique things and no reason to get it.

Skull Pistol Teaser Preview

Bottleman is included in the Takara Tomy Online Toy Show. They might show of Skull Pistol or announced new releases.
