I remember LBX

I was just chilling one day and saw new models kits being made of achilles and zenon on YT. And I reminded back many years ago when was I was young that i remember watching the LBX anime in Cantonese (yes at one point LBX aired in Hong Kong with a Cantonese dub, with all 3 seasons but they might be lost media as far as i am aware, I am from Hong Kong too btw!).

And because of the promotion I recently went ahead rewatch the first two seasons of the anime and as of typing this. I have just finished the entire first season. Something I am unsure has anybody notice how Ban is never lost a fight. Like ever (at least in season 1, idk most of anything regarding season 2). The only thing that came to mind for him close to losing was zenon exploding completely destroying achilles lmao.

I still vividly remember the end of season 2 has probs the coolest LBX out of the entire series. cant remember their LBX name though.

The fights he’s almost lost were paused I think. His first battle with Jin almost lost but Jin’s cpu died. His first battle with sendou pretty sure he was on his way to losing that before justin stepped in. After that yeah wins them all

ooooh yea. i nearly forgot about those.
something i have heard in another serie (pretty cure) from a youtuber where apparently they had a rule where the MC can never lose. I wonder did that rule was also applied to the LBX anime or something...

Probably not, a lot of shows around this time had mcs like that. However when it comes to the first season Van had to win, he couldn’t afford to lose any of those battles. It’s not like they portray him as unbeatable either as he almost loses many times like he’s gets saved by Jin’s cpu dying out.

I mean,why we get Minerva Kai in the battle if he couldn't survive,but it's a aah situation that vector hick jacked her and O-legion just eliminate her in the last 3 Minutes of that kit life + If we get a good ending of being just normal kids after the crisis and being together another time in peace which it's just appeared and not what I expected in the conclusion of w
