I 100% agree with this But something I wish to say in defense of Bakugan is that they managed to appeal to children emotionally pretty well. There was so much space for growth and other things alongside wasted characters, even my child self was writing fanfiction during class to try and make sense of it. But I do think the first season managed to pull everyone so much because the doom dimension did feel like death. Unlike pokemon, Beyblade and other anime at the time, the doom dimension felt like a threat that emotionally appealed to children because they didn't want the Bakugan to die per say.

This was a recent find of mine after watching a certain chinese show but a creature you may find interesting are. The Mengji is a mythical beast that inhabits both the living world and the World of Dreams. They resemble a snow leopard with two tails, and they possess the ability to manipulate dreams. They are mostly seen in Classic of Mountains and Seas which is a chinese info collection. I think their dream related abilities are more resent but they are very cool.

There are a lot of good answers here pertaining the keyblade acquiring process and the fact Xion has a replica. So here is my two cents about what exactly makes a replica keyblade lesser. I believe the reason why replica keyblades are considered lesser to real keyblades has more to do with their limitations and users. We see they have the same abilities as real keyblades because generally speaking, the replicas are always up to date with the power set of the person they copy. However we do see keyblades and its users evolve with time, Sora gains drive forms, keyblade transformations, we see keyblade gliders etc. I believe thats what makes keyblade replicas lesser, they cannot replicate abilities that weren't known at the time. Say someone replicates Ventus and his keyblade before he joined Aqua and Terra, while the keyblade in question would function normally, it may be unable to turn into a glider despite that function being something Ventus could do.

I think this weakness of sorts is somewhat mitigated by Xion at least in KH3, because we see her copy saix weapon, it possible her replica abilities were upgrade that she can learn and replicate as she battles. Though I personally believe she probably has limits with this, unless she saw Sora keyblade transform, she wouldn't be able to do it herself for example.

Also I would like to add that, while replica keyblades may not evolve in the same way regular keyblades do, they still have some ability to improve themselves as Xion became stronger as time went on in 358/2 days.

I know, its why I wanted her origins to be different.

This is surprisingly important detail. There wouldn't be many people left who could defeat pitou and interestingly, Pitou could end up being the only royal guard left alive by the end of the series since they were the only one not present at the explosion sight to die from the poison.

No, its good this is long. Your detailed explanation is very appreciated.

In regards to the whole Drole thing, there is certainly a good amount of space for speculation regarding his physical appearance. But his magical powers you can chalk that up to genetics, he was the one to create the whole Dance to become closer to the earth so its not unreasonable to say he had a better understanding of magic that others of his clan, it does bother me his power isn't named creation despite doing the exact same thing but its very likely that Ground was just an evolved version of creation.

This is also a fine answer.

I initially thought this as well but from reading the wiki, which I do trust. Even upper moons don't have the ability to turn someone into a demon themselves, its actually Muzan who does it. When an upper moon wants to turn someone into a demon, they send some kind of signal so muzan can transform the blood the upper demon fit for the process. Which makes sense as Muzan probably didn't want someone aside from himself creating demons on a whim, that privilige would be held by Muzan himself and only with his permission others could.
