I started New Vestroia without expecting much. I couldn't see how they could continue the story after the ending of Battle Brawlers, but I was positively surprised. I was thrilled from the first episode, already liking the new main characters (I didn't really like Julie and Runo anyway) and happy to see Dan, Marucho, and later on, Shun, back. The story of New Vestroia takes a more mature feeling, and there is more than just brawling. Even if I miss Masquerade, there's a lot of interesting villains to replace him.
I liked Battle Brawlers, but I LOVE New Vestroia, so if you liked it too, I strongly suggest you to give it a try, especially if your favorite character is still on the show. And even if he/she is not a main character anymore (if it was the case), don't give up, they all have some cameos later on ;)
