Burst Ball Barrage!! Super B-Daman

Burst Ball Barrage!! Super B-Daman (爆球連発！！スーパービーダマン) is a manga series about Tamago Tosaka, a boy with red hair in middle school who meets new friends and competes in tournaments using Bomberman B-Daman toys. It was serialized in the Monthly CoroCoro magazine from 1995-2001 with standalone volumes occurring later. There are 15 volumes in the manga and an anime adaptation was later created that consisted of 18 episodes. Several video games were also released, including Super B-Daman: Fighting Phoenix for Game Boy and Bakukyuu Renpatsu!! Super B-Daman for Super Famicom. 
==Relationship to Bomberman==
When B-Daman was first created, it centered heavily around Bomberman as the character/toy that would fire the marbles. As the series grew in popularity and new styles of toys were being created and sold, Bomberman was slowly removed from the series entirely. B-Daman would go on to become its own entity. The manga features children who use Bomberman B-Daman toys but they are phased out over the course of a few volumes as they become damaged or replaced during the story.
The manga was re-released digitally on Amazon and the connection to Bomberman was removed entirely. This is evident from the cover of the first manga book, which shows a redraw of a red Bomberman into an original character. Other characters that appeared in the manga such as The Dastardly Bombers, were replaced as well. It is unclear why this happened but several tweets from someone involved in the project elude to it being a collective decision between the companies. 1,2,3
