MarbleArena

MarbleArena is an American-British animesque animated television series produced at Aura Television Productions UK in association with Beta Cartoon Productions.

The first 13 episodes were released on June 4th, 2022, with the next 13 not having yet had a release date announced.

Characters

 * Motome

Premise
Each year, a few lucky people receive a marble-shooter alongside an invite to the MarbleArena, which houses a tournament for fans of marbles. However, evil organizations plan to sabotage the competition from the inside. Motome is one of the lucky people to receive such an honor, but he must face evil organization after evil organization so that he could win the tournament and become the MarbleArena champion.

Motome vs. the MarbleSnatchers arc

 * Episode 4 hints that, at least in the Motome Saga, CodeScan and MarbleArena share the same universe.

MegaMarble Shooter arc

 * This is the first installment where the protagonist finds a loophole to avoid falling afoul of the antagonists' new order (in Motome's case, going to a lot not under the MarbleArena's ownership).
 * This is also (so far) the only installment where the tournament allows a tag team.

International broadcast
In September 2022, YTV 2 acquired the Canadian broadcast rights to MarbleArena for a January 2023 broadcast. As the show is a Flare+-funded series, the series would not be available on Teletoon+ following the Canadian broadcast.

On September 12th, 2022, Beta Poland listed MarbleArena on its October 2022 schedule alongside Mars Street, but has not yet officially announced that the series would join the lineup.

Trivia

 * The staff have mentioned that the show is based on marbles, but that they would differentiate its premise from that of B-Daman.
 * Unlike CodeScan, which focuses on a different set of protagonists per arc, MarbleArena would only switch protagonists in-between seasons.
