Plot[edit]

The story centers around the card game Duel Masters, which revolves around five civilizations consisting of Fire, Water, Light, Darkness and Nature. The original storyline follows Shobu Kirifuda, a young boy who likes to play Duel Masters. He and a few duelists are known to bring the monsters on the cards to life in their duels. Shobu engages in this card game so that he can be the best duelist like his father was.

Characters[edit]

Main characters[edit]

Shobu Kirifuda (切札 勝舞Kirifuda Shōbu)

Voiced by: Yumiko Kobayashi (child), Kouki Uchiyama (adult) (Japanese); Joshua Seth (Season 1), Liam O'Brien (Season 1.5, 2) (English)

The show's protagonist and Knight's apprentice. He aspires to become a great duelist like his father, Shori Kirifuda. Shobu keeps a positive attitude throughout the series, insisting on dueling for fun as opposed to simply winning. In the first season, Shobu takes on the challenge of defeating the temple champion, Hakuoh, who he feels has become corrupt with power. Throughout this portion of the series, Shobu must defeat Hakuoh's underlings while he struggles to understand the true spirit of dueling. In his duel with Hakuoh, as Shobu faces off against the strongest of all Angel Commands, he is forced to make a crucial decision. He must either accept the help of his friends and 'wind up like Ko' (Kokujo having been injured in a Kaihudo duel) or give up on his friends and 'end up like Hakuoh', who had become cold and heartless. All in all Shobu is brave, strong, and has the guts never to give up, just like his favorite creatures. He uses a Fire Civilization deck which later becomes a Dragon Deck and even later evolves into a Dragon/Angel Command deck. After being defeated in a later season he loses most of his deck but is guided to his father's deck by the spirits of Bolmeteus Samurai Dragon and Bolbalzak 'Sword Flash' Dragon. This new deck is a Dragon and Samurai deck. Soon after he combined elements from the 2 decks and created a Samurai Dragon/Angel Command deck (Fire, Light & Nature civilizations). As of Duel Masters Cross his main cards are: Bolmeteus 'Kensei' Dragon, Bolshack Yamato Dragon, Bolbalzak 'Sword Flash' Dragon and Saint Bolshack, Spiritual Dragon. After losing Saint Bolshack, Valkiryas Musashi, Ultimate Battle Dragon and Sword Flash Galaxy, Super Champ became his trump cards as well. Later, his trump card becomes Bolshack NEX. He defeated Zakira with Bolpheaus Heaven in the manga. Shobu also appeared in the anime movie 'Rockman.EXE: Program Between Light and Darkness.'

Hakuoh (白凰Hakuō)

Voiced by: Junko Minagawa (Japanese); Joe Ochman^[3] (English)

Hakuoh is the arch rival of Shobu Kirifuda. Hakuoh came from a prominent dueling family, and specialized in Light civilization from a young age. At that time, he was a reflection of Shobu, a young kid who loved the game above all else. This changed, however, when a mysterious duelist appeared and challenged Hakuoh to his first Kaijudo duel. Unaware of the dangers involved in a Kaijudo duel, Hakuoh became overconfident and was nearly killed as a result. Instead of being crushed by his opponent's attack however, Hakuoh was pushed out of the way by his mother who was fatally wounded. Since then, Hakuoh has become a cold-hearted villain and Shobu's main rival. Hakuoh no longer sees any fun in dueling and decides that one's value as a human being is determined by their ability to win and will rest at nothing to 'be the best'. As a result, Hakuoh becomes a dueling champion and the leader of the White Soldiers. To protect his title, Hakuoh is protected by four Temple Guardians. Later in the series, he is challenged by Shobu Kirifuda (who Hakuoh recognizes as a reflection of his former self). As he is consumed with power, Hakuoh not only desires to defeat Shobu, but to crush him entirely and destroy his dreams of dueling. 'For when I defeat you, you shall never duel again!'. He proclaims himself as 'a shadowy reflection' of Shobu. As the dueling intensifies, Shobu realizes the danger in abandoning his friends, as he may wind up like the heartless Hakuoh. Hakuoh is finally defeated by Shobu and later he befriends him for showing him the true nature of dueling. In Duel Masters Charge, Hakuoh allies himself with Zakira (the series' main villain) after being brainwashed into becoming his pawn, 'White'. In Duel Masters Zero, he becomes similar to his old self and appears to be working with Professor Machi (a mad scientist who lures duelists to a deserted island). In Duel Masters Cross, he tries to stop Zakira by challenging him to a kaijudo duel, but was defeated. Afterwards, his 'White' personality overtook him once again. However, after beating Mimi in a duel, he was able to return to his old self after seeing the damage he had caused. Hakuoh uses a Light Civilization deck. In Season one, it is a mono-civilization deck focusing on a combination of Urth, Purifying Elemental, Szubs Kin Twighlight Guardian, and Dia Nork, Moonlight Guardian, with his intent on evolving Urth into Alcadeias, Lord of Spirits. This first deck relies heavily on blockers, which leaves him vulnerable to Shobu's 'Scralet Skyterror.' Later, in Duel Masters Cross, he is given a Light/Darkness Knight deck by Zakira. His main cards are Urth Purifying Elemental, Hanusa Radiance Elemental, Alcadies Lord of Spirits, Alphadios Lord of Spirits, King Alcadeias, Holy Gaia; Perfect Galaxy, Spirit of Immortality; and most recently, Nero Gryphis, Mystic Light Emperor.

Kyoshiro Kokujo (黒城 凶死郎Kokujō Kyōshirō)

A self-proclaimed 'evil genius' and another of Shobu's main rivals throughout the series. Other characters make fun of his outlandishly styled long hair and all-black leather outfit. He uses a Darkness Civilization Deck, but later on in the subsequent series, it becomes a Darkness/Water deck. He has earned the nickname 'Black Death', because of his relentless tactics and masterful use of Darkness civilization. Kokujo claims to have become evil because others said he could not become a kaijudo master. In Season 2 he helps Shobu to defeat P.L.O.O.P. (once again using a mono-Darkness deck). In Season 3, he defeated Mimi but lost to Yumama in the semifinals (due to her using supernatural powers in the end to knock him unconscious). In Duel Masters Charge he helps Shobu in their quest, but still works individually. His ultimate cards are Dorballom, Lord of Demons, Ballom, Master of Death, Ballom Emperor, Lord of Demons, Ballom Monarch, the Dark Reaper King, XENOM, the Reaper King, Dark Strike, Reaper Beast, Bell Hell De Gaul, Footprint of the Reaper and most recently added, Black Ganveet, Legion of Darkness.

Shobu's family[edit]

Shori Kirifuda (切札 勝利Kirifuda Shōri)

Voiced by: Kenji Hamada (Japanese); Cam Clarke (Season 1), Milton Lawrence (Season 1.5) (English)

Shobu's father and a world famous duelist. Shori left home to continue his training, but he continued to miss his family every day. He reappeared in Season 2 but disappeared again after the defeat of P.L.O.O.P. He makes an appearance in 'Duel Masters the Movie' to assist Shobu, only to disappear at its end. In Duel Masters Charge he was believed to have been dead in a Kaijudo duel protecting the 'Duel Master's Proof' from Zakira. However, as revealed in Duel Masters Cross Shock, he entrusted Extreme Bucket Man with a deck case to be given to Shobu. It wasn't until later that he was discovered to be alive (only previously 'deleted') and free from exile where he reunites with his son. He plays with a deck similar to, but more advanced than Shobu's, with Bolberg Cross Dragon acting his trump card.

Mai Kirifuda (切札 舞Kirifuda Mai)

Voiced by: Satsuki Yukino (Japanese); Cindy Robinson (Season 1), Wendee Lee (Season 2) (English)

Shobu's mother and Shori's wife. To help Shobu on different occasions, she has occasionally taken on the persona of a second 'Dragon Mask' (the persona being first used by Knight) and challenged him.

Shobu's friends[edit]

Rekuta Kadoko (角古れく太Kadoko Rekuta)

Voiced by: Yuka Imai (2002-2010), Emiri Katou (2017-present) (Japanese); Debi Derryberry (Season 1), Sterling R. (Season 1.5), Brianne Siddall (Season 2) (English)

Shobu's best friend and loyal sidekick. Even though he is an expert at the rules Rekuta is a terrible duelist, often going without a single win during a tournament. He's often seen with his portable laptop to keep track of important duels. As a running joke, he is often accidentally sent flying into the air. In one instance which only occurred in the English version, he was sent flying into space (against a live-action backdrop) and crashed into a space station. He has almost every card ever released (since his father Maruo (丸雄Maruo) owns a card shop) but cannot correctly use the cards. In the manga, his 'otakudom' in card collecting often helps Shobu, or at least give him a clue or a hint towards winning a duel.

Sayuki Manaka (真中紗雪Manaka Sayuki)

Voiced by: Saeko Chiba (Japanese); Debi Derryberry (Season 1), Peggy O'Neal (Seasons 1.5, 2) (English)

Appearing only in the anime, Sayuki Manaka is another one of Shobu's close friends, who is also in his class at school. A kind girl with a sweet and usually soft-spoken disposition, she cares deeply for Shobu and is always ready to help him and comfort him when he's down. In addition, she is always present to see Shobu's matches and constantly cheers him on. Sayuki is shown to participate in duels on occasion, but is mainly there for Shobu throughout the series. In the English version, Sayuki has an attitude despite being soft-spoken, and is very critical.

Mimi Tasogare (黄昏ミミTasogare Mimi)

Voiced by: Saki Nakajima (Japanese); Jessica DiCicco (Season 1), Colleen O'Shaughnessey (Seasons 1.5, 2) (English)

Another member of Shobu's posse. Mimi first appeared to be both ditzy and inept at dueling, but was later revealed to be the second of the Four Temple Guardians at the Junior Duelist Center and an expert player. Mimi also has an undisclosed amount of super-strength which enables her to bring down any walls and other obstacles as well as having good martial arts abilities. As the first season closes with the duel between Shobu and Hakuoh, Mimi reveals that Hakuoh was not always a heartless duelist and her personal connection to Hakuoh has developed into a slight crush throughout the series. She mostly uses Nature Civilization cards, but tends to use Shield Triggers from all 5 civilizations.

George Kamamoto (ジョージ釜本Jōji Kamamoto)

Voiced by: Norio Wakamoto (Japanese); Tim Diamond (Season 1), Terrence Stone (Season 1.5), Brian Beacock (Season 2) (English)

A midget in a pink bear suit and is always seen sucking a pacifier and an 8-year-old boy. He rides around in a motor baby carriage and uses a Water Civilization deck, he is a skillful duelist and has even defeated Mimi (a powerful duelist in her own right) fairly easily. In Season 3, he uses a Darkness/Water deck, he also withdraws from the tournament after losing to Yumama.^{[original research?]}

Dr. Root Westhandler (Ｄｒ．ルートDokutā Rūto)

Voiced by: Kan Tanaka (Japanese); Doug Erholtz (Season 1.5, 2) (English)

Dr. Root is a mad scientist who is Boy George's boss and an expert duelist. Outside of that, he also a human-resembling robot named Mr. Perfect and a pilotable giant robot. His eccentric methods always have some hidden lesson to help Shobu and his friends. Dr. Root's real name is Leroy. In Duel Masters Zero, he takes charge of training Shobu and his friends. He has a deck of Survivors in season 1 and in charge he has a Darkness/Water deck similar to Boy George's deck.

NAC (ナックNakku)

NAC is a manga only character. This character is loosely based on Satoshi Nakamura (中村聡Nakamura Satoshi), a Japanese card game player who became one of the top Magic: The Gathering players in Asia. He was involved in the making of 'Duel Masters', assisting Dai Matsumoto (the manga author's nickname) as a technical advisor (the manga's plot is based around Magic: The Gathering). He has appeared in the manga both as NAC and as a more realistic cameo of himself known as 'Nakamura-san'. According to one of Dai Matsumoto's omake sections in the manga, NAC was also involved in the development of the Duel Masters card game.

Knight (ナイトNaito)

Voiced by: Katsuyuki Konishi (Japanese); Milton Lawrence (Season 1-1.5)^[4], Kirk Thornton (Season 2) (English)

Knight is Shobu's mysterious and soft-spoken mentor. In the English 'dub', his inner monologue is a source of much of the show's mature and subtle humor. Despite being Shobu's mentor, he is usually unable to assist his student in times of need due to either Shobu's stubborn attitude or Knight being unable to show up at the scene (such is the case in Shobu's duel with Hakuoh, when Knight reveals he never taught Shobu about dueling against the Light Civilization). Knight does not appear in the manga, although the manga character NAC is similar to him. On one occasion, Dr. Root had Knight take on a 'Dragon Mask' persona to duel Shobu in order for him to reclaim his tournament pass. Knight's character is loosely based on the manga only character NAC.

Extreme Bucketman

Voiced by: Akiko Suzuki (Japanese); Steve Blum (English)

A short duelist who wears a bucket on his head. No one knows if Bucketman is male or female. Rekuta believes that Extreme Bucketman is annoying. Bucketman defeated Kokujo before their official match. He lost to Yumama by surrendering, and later, under Zakira's mind control, duels against Shobu. His Deck is Fire and Nature, mostly involving Earth Dragons and Firebirds. His trump card is Soul Phoenix, Avatar of Unity. In the final duel against Yumama, he gives the card to Shobu. In Duel Masters Cross, he plays a Snow Faerie and Initiate deck.

The Temple[edit]

Master (マスターMasutā)

Very little is known about the leader of the 'Temple' (an organization within the Junior Duelist's Center). Throughout the first season he appears in a long black, hooded robe with his face half concealed by his long blond hair. 'The Master' appears as Hakuoh's teacher and dueling coach. Knight suggests that the Master has only taken an interest in Hakuoh because he plans to use the young duelist in obtaining his 'revenge' against the creature world who defeated him in a duel causing him to never duel again. 'Master' seems to be responsible for Hakuoh's brainwashing and even pushes Hakuoh to attack Shobu with Alcadeias after his defeat. Master disappears after Hakuoh's defeat in Season 1 and hasn't reappeared since.

Fritz the Goblin

Fritz is a goblin who works at the Junior Duelist's Center. He is often mistakenly called a squirrel. Anyone who wants to enroll in the Junior Duelist's Center has to answer his riddles.

Kintaro Nanba (難波 金太郎Nanba Kintarō)

A midget who is the former gatekeeper of the Junior Duelist Center and part of an organization known as the White Soldiers (白い騎士団Shiroi Kishidan, lit. 'White Knights'). He was discharged by Hakuoh after losing to Shobu (who he had quickly befriended). Nobody knows how old he is and he often carries around a man-purse and an abacus. Kintaro returned in Season Three, having regained Hakuoh's friendship. He lost to Extreme Bucketman in the finals.

Temple Guardians[edit]

The Temple Guardians are the elite members of the White Soldiers that work under Hakuoh. Among the members of the Temple Guardians are:

Mikuni (三国Mikuni, later Johnny Coolburns)

The first of the Four Temple Guardians (四天衆Shi Tenshū). He uses a Fire deck, and during his duel with Shobu he purposely mimicked everything he did in order to throw him off. Mikuni managed to defeat Shobu, but Mimi managed to convince the Master to invite Shobu to try again in a duel against Mikuni. He is defeated by Shobu the second time around and thus he quickly befriends him. Due to his defeat at the hands of Shobu, Hakuoh ends up discharging Mikuni. He resurfaces in Season Three having regained Hakouh's friendship. He lost to Robby Rotten, where his name mysteriously changed to Johnny Coolburns. It was later 'explained' that this and other plot holes in the show were due to Season Three happening in an alternate dimension.

Temple Guardian 2

See Mimi Tasogare

Gyujiroh Japan (邪藩 牛次郎Japan Gyūjirō) / Benny HaHa

Voiced by: Katsuya Shiga (Japanese); Kerrigan Mahan (Season 1), Michael Sorich (Season 3) (English)

The third of the Four Temple Guardians. In the English dub, Benny is Mimi's 'twin brother' where he had different plastic surgeries to look older where he claims that he is one minute older than Mimi. Benny is often seen piloting a robot suit and first appears where he destroys Mimi's access card upon her defeat and wrecks her deck. He often cheats and relies on deceit in his duels. His constant defeat at the hands of the series' heroes has led him to hate both Shobu and Hakuoh. Benny returns in Season Three claiming to have turned over a new leaf, but this is quickly revealed to be an act. Benny forces Hakuoh into dueling before their match in a self-made Duel Masters Battle Arena by taking Aizen and Johnny Coolburns as hostage. As each of Hakuoh's shields are broken, Benny shocks his prisoners with a hidden trap, as a part of his plan to torture Hakuoh by harming his friends. As a result, Hakuoh vows to defeat Benny without losing any more shields, and agrees to forfeit if another one of his shields is broken in order to spare his friends. Hakuoh manages to complete the 'perfect duel' and defeat Benny despite his many attempts to cheat. Afterward, Benny detonates a bomb beneath the stadium and seriously injures Hakuoh so that he is unable to duel him the next morning. With Hakuoh eliminated, he ends up dueling Shobu again and loses. It is revealed that he is also working with Yumama. After he lost to Shobu, Benny was banished by Yumama and trapped in a room with Boy George which they both escaped in the same episode. He uses a Water Civilization Deck and later a Wave Striker Deck during his tournament match with Shobu.

Makoto Aizen (愛善 真Aizen Makoto)

The fourth of the Four Temple Guardians who also worked as the Temple's janitor. He was defeated by Kyoshiro Kokujo before he could fight Shobu. He also lost to Hakuoh in Duel Masters Battle Arena Tournament. In the later season, he is shown to be using a Fire/Light Civilization deck. His trump card appears to be Warlord Aizonius.

The Black Soldiers are a group of duelists that are the opposite form of Hakuoh's White Soldiers. Most of the Black Soldiers consists of duelists that were unable to defeat Hakuoh when wanting to become a member of the White Soldiers.

The Duel Masters Trading Card Game is a two-player or two vs. two team collectible card game (CCG) jointly developed by Wizards of the Coast, Shogakukan, and Mitsui & Co. The card game is part of the Duel Masters franchise.^[1]

The game was released in Japan in May 2002, where it quickly became the number one selling trading card game for over a year.^{[citation needed]} Owing to this popularity, it was released in the United States on March 5, 2004. The game shares several similarities with Magic: The Gathering, the world's first collectible card game, which was also published by Wizards of the Coast. In fact, Duelmasters was originally intended as an alternative tradename for Magic: The Gathering and the earlier game play was abandoned in the Duel Masters manga plot to promote this latest experience.

As in Magic: The Gathering, Duel Masters players summon creatures and cast spells using mana. Key differences include the fact that all creatures and spells can act as mana producers, creatures cannot block attacking creatures without having the “blocker” ability, and that creatures only have one “power” statistic. Furthermore, duelists have shields in the form of cards that go to their hand when “broken” as opposed to Magic's “life points”. Owing to the popularity of Duel Masters, four video games (three released for the Game Boy Advance and the other for the PS2) based around the game have been produced, titled Duel Masters: Kaijudo Showdown, Duel Masters: Sempai Legends, Duel Masters: Shadow of the Code for the GBA and Duel Masters: Cobalt for the PS2.

Fans of Duel Masters around the world support player-organized tournaments and also unofficial national championships. The community centers itself on two main forums internationally which contain translations for Japanese cards. Because Duel Masters is one of the most successful TCG in all Asia, a new booster set is released every two months, and new theme decks every three months.

As of December 2006, the English sets of Duel Masters were discontinued by Wizards of the Coast due to weak sales and was hosted by Takara Tomy in Japan for a brief time.^[2] However, in June 2012, Wizards of the Coast relaunched Duel Masters under a new franchise named “Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters”. Based on the existing Duel Masters brand, Kaijudo features an online game, trading card game, and a television series.^[3][4] The product was canceled a second time in 2014.

Game Play[edit]

In Duel Masters, two players play the role of duelists, using the 'art' of 'kaijudo' (a marketing term created for the North American version which supposedly describes the 'art of battling with giant monsters,' from the Japanese words kaiju, strange beast or giant monster, and do, way or art) to bring their creatures to life to do battle. Players battle each other by placing cards into their respective 'mana zones,' then using that mana to cast spells or summon creatures into the 'battle zone.'

Each player has five shields that protect them from damage; once these are gone, it takes one successful attack to win the duel. When a player's deck runs out of cards, that player automatically loses the duel.

Each player's deck must have a minimum of 40 cards in it. As with all trading card games, players construct their own decks out of cards from their collection. Players can purchase booster packs to increase the number of cards they have in their collection. Boosters are available in English for the first 12 sets, and Japanese for all for the following expansions.

Types of Cards[edit]

• Creatures: Creatures are the most important cards in the game. Creatures are summoned into the battle zone by paying their mana cost. They can attack your opponents creatures, shields or the opponent himself. Breaking all of your opponents shields and then attacking the opponent is how you win the game. Creatures that have been summoned usually have summoning sickness and cannot attack in the same turn (with exception to evolution creatures and creatures with card effects like 'Speed Attacker').
• Evolution Creatures: These are put on top of the creatures, or 'evolved'. These cards generally have higher powers and better effects than normal creatures. Usually, evolution creatures have 'Double Breaker' or 'Triple Breaker' effects which allow them to break more shields than normal creatures. Evolution creatures made their debut in the 'Evo-Crushinators of Doom' set. Evolution creatures also have a wide range of mana costs, ranging from costs of two mana, 'Barkwhip, the Smasher' to 10 mana, [Dorballom, Lord of Demons]. Overall, Evolution Creatures are a good way to quickly attack and gain an advantage over your opponent as an Evolution Creature can attack on the turn they are summoned as they do not suffer from Summoning Sickness.
• Spells: When cast, spells have an effect on either player's cards in their hand, graveyard (discard pile), mana zone or summoned creatures/cross gears and after their effect is used, they are placed into the graveyard. Some spells have special effects like 'Cyclone' and 'Charger' which sends the spell back to the player's hand or mana zone respectively. Spells can also have many other abilities such as 'Double Evolution Burst', 'Knight Magic' or 'Launcher Energy'/'Photo Energy'. Spells can do a variety of things such as allowing the player to draw cards, add more shields to their shield zone, giving power or various breaker abilities to their creatures, or simply destroying opponents cards.
• Cross Gears: Cross Gears are put into the battle zone but have no power and cannot attack. When you choose to 'cross' a Cross Gear onto a creature, you must pay the cost of the card again, and the 'crossed' creature gained this Cross Gear's ability. When the 'crossed' creature leaves the battle zone, the Cross Gear remains in the battle zone. There is no limit to the number of Cross Gears that can be crossed onto a creature.
• Evolution Cross Gears: An Evolution Cross Gear is a type of Cross Gear that can only be played on a Cross Gear of a specified civilization. It has the same basic functionality as the Cross Gear, and if the Cross Gear used to evolve is initially crossed onto a creature, the Evolution Cross Gear will be automatically crossed onto the target creature. Each Evolution Cross Gear has 2 civilizations, as features 'catastrophe' in its card name.
• Fortress: Allows the player to 'fortify' a shield in a similar fashion as a Cross Gear. Fortresses are 'equipped' onto shields directly after being played.
• Psychic Creatures: Psychic Creatures are not placed in the deck during deck construction, but are placed in the separate Hyperspatial Zone, which is placed next to the graveyard during gameplay. Each player is limited to eight Psychic Creatures in their hyperspatial zone, and are counted separately from the player's main deck of 40 or more cards. Players cannot summon Psychic Creatures in the same way they summon normal Creatures; they can only do so when a card ability allows it. A Psychic Creature card is two-sided, and features a creature on both sides. The cheaper (weaker) side always has an 'Awaken' ability, which when activated allows the player to flip the card over to its stronger side, giving the creature a higher power and improved abilities. A Psychic creatures do not provide any mana as they can only be placed in the battle zone or Hyperspatial Zone; whenever a Psychic Creature is to leave the battle zone, it returns to the Hyperspatial Zone.
• Psychic Evolution Creatures: These cards are put on top of Psychic creatures like Evolution creatures.

Card Rarity[edit]

The symbol for a card's rarity is marked in the bottom right corner of the face-up side:

• Common: a plain circle
• Uncommon: a diamond shape
• Rare: a star
• Very Rare: a circle with a star in the middle
• Super Rare: four squares put together to shape a diamond
• Victory Rare: A stylized '=V=' symbol.

List of Card Mechanics[edit]

• 'Breaker' Variants: These abilities allows the creature to break extra shields in a single attack if it makes a successful unblocked attack on a player. Each shield is broken one at a time.
