True Colours is the seventh episode of Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders. It aired on July 4, 2010.

Plot

Marucho frantically searches Bakugan Interspace and his home for Ren, but he is nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, Ren meets up with Sid, Lena, Mason, Jesse and Zenet, scolding Jesse for giving away his cover. Marucho uses a secret message to get Ren to meet him, and they battle.

While this is going on, Fabia tells everyone her side of the story. Neathia was attacked by Gundalia, and due to their Bakugan's inexperience in battle they quickly lost to the Gundalian Bakugan. Fabia then sent out a distress message, via the Phantom Data which lead her to Bakugan Interspace on Earth. Shun discovers the battle going on between Marucho and Ren. When they arrive, Marucho defeats Ren.

Ren attempts to get Marucho to switch sides, but he refuses to leave his friends. Ren declares that their friendship is over, and reveals his true Gundalian form. He tells Marucho that the next time they meet, they will be enemies.

Trivia

  • This is one of the few times in Season 3 where a character throws the ability to his Bakugan to activate it, as opposed to just holding it. This has occured many times in the first season.
  • This marks the first appearance of Runo, Ace, Baron, and Mira in Season 3, albeit in a flashback.

Errors

  • When Fabia told the Brawlers about her story about Neathia, she said that humans and Bakugan lived in peace as opposed to Neathians and Bakugan lived in peace.

Deleted Scenes

  • In the initial Japanese airing, when Akwimos uses Depth World, the scene where Linehalt gets hit by waves caused by the ability were replaced by stationary scenes, possibly due to the aftermath of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake. This is not seen in the English dub and other versions based on the Japanese one, though this is restored in subsequent airings and in Japanese DVD release for Japan.
  • Break Garret was only shown in the Japanese version of Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders. It was removed in the English dub due to its violent nature, which was deemed to be inappropriate for children.
  • In the Japanese version, when Ren activates the ability; Dark Javelin, Linehalt impales Akwimos. This was likely cut because it was considered too violent for kids.
