{{nihongo|''BakuTech! Bakugan''|爆TECH! 爆丸|Bakūtekku! Bakugan}} is a Japanese action adventure anime television series and a spin-off of the ''[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers]]'' series. It is based on the manga series ''[[BakuTech! Bakugan]]''.
After ''[[Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders]]'' aired in Japan, a decision was made not to air ''[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge]]'', which had been poorly received in the west. Instead, the ''BakuTech!'' anime was aired, each episode running 6 minutes long. It was followed by a sequel titled ''[[BakuTech! Bakugan Gachi]]''.
==Plot==
The TV anime adaptation of the ''BakuTech!'' manga series follows the daily lives of [[Harubaru Hinode]], [[Raichi Kuronashi]], and [[Tatsuma]] as students of [[Master Shimo]]'s [[Bakugan Dojo]]. Each six-minute episode features different BakuTech play styles and fast-paced brawling action.

==Major Differences from the Manga==
*In the anime, a lot of main Bakugan replace the roles of other Bakugan in the manga (for example, [[Mika Laurel]] takes [[Mega Nemus]]' place most of the time).
*The first half of the anime involves the [[Shadow Sanjushi]] instead of the [[BakuThieves]] whereas in the manga, it is the other way around.
*[[Tatsuma]] is introduced in the first episode of the anime and appears in every subsequent episode. In the manga, he does not appear for a while.
*The BakuTech Colisseo chapters were skipped, so [[Harou Kido]] was the three-time champion in the anime instead of just two.
*The Rare Bakugan Hunters do not appear in the anime, but their Guardian Bakugan are often used for target practice in the Bakugan Dojo and in Quilt's Temple.
*In the manga, Van Falco evolved because Sho used a machine to repair Van Falco after [[Catol]] destroys it. In the anime, it naturally evolves after Sho defeats Koh in a brawl.
*[[Master Jyou]] never switches places with [[Master Shimo]] in the manga.
*In the manga, the [[Shadow Sanjushi]] get their [[Sechs Tavanel]] at the same time as Team Dragon.
*The anime does not state how [[Tatsuma]] acquires his metal cross parts, only hinting that Harou gave them to him, while the manga explains he took a trial to become a BakuTech and got metal cross parts that way.
*The manga versions of the fights with the Grif brothers' newly evolved Bakugan and with Master Grizz and Master Odore are shorter.
*Zakuro's possession takes place at the Tavanel cup in the manga.
*Raichi's dark past is not talked about in the anime.
<!-- Note: Need expansion/clarification
*In the manga, Mr. Up is met at Odore and Grizzs' temple
*In the manga the Tavanel Cup starts with Mr. Up and Downs' arc in the anime. -->
