The
English-language version of the series was produced by Plastic Cow
Productions and made a truncated three-episode preview premiere on
Cartoon Network's Toonami block on February 27, 2004.
The
episodes then made their "official" premiere on April 13, 2004, on CN's
Toonami spinoff block, the Saturday Video Entertainment System (SVES)
with fewer edits as well as episodes 4 and 5. Toonami then moved to
Saturdays and premiered the rest of the series.
The second
season was produced by Elastic Media Corp and premiered on March 26,
2005. The "Sacred Lands"/"P.L.O.O.P." storyline is not based on the
manga and was created specifically for the American market. The third
season began production in September 2005 and was produced by Howling
Cat Productions (featuring some of the former Saban Entertainment VA's,
such as Brian Beacock, Philece Sampler, and Wendee Lee). In the UK, Duel
Masters aired on Toonami.
The Japanese version has a separate
second season entitled "Duel Masters Charge" (2004-2006), which is based
on more of the manga. Duel Masters Charge was eventually produced for
the American market as "Duel Masters 2.0", although only the 1st half
was aired. Eventually, a Japanese third season premiered in Japan
entitled "Shinseiki Duel Masters Flash", followed by "Zero Duel Masters"
(2006-2007), "Duel Masters Zero" (separate from "Zero Duel Masters",
and the first season to be CGI animated; 2007-2008), "Duel Masters
Cross" (the first season to be produced in high definition; 2008-2010),
"Duel Masters Cross Shock" (2010-2011), "Duel Masters Victory",
(2011-2012)[1], and "Duel Masters Victory V" (April 7, 2012-present).
However, the American version has ended, and thus these seasons will not
be produced for the American market.

"Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters" was announced by Wizards of the
Coast to air in spring 2012 on The Hub in the United States.
Japanese dialogue also plays a part in duels. A player declares "Kettou
Da" to challenge another player. The challenged then chooses to accept
with "Yoshi". "Hai" literally means "yes" in Japanese. "Ike" is a
command to attack, and "Todome Da" is similar to calling "checkmate" and
end the battle. The term "Kaijudo," used only in the English version,
originates from the word "kaiju", meaning monster, and "dō", or "the
way." Therefore, "kaijūdō" means "the way of the monster."
As a
whole, the Japanese version is more serious than the American version.
While the Japanese version seems to rely more on visual and situational
humor, the American version tends to use much more verbal humor. Also,
while the Japanese version is mostly a traditional card-game show with
much humor, the American version is a flat-out parody of the genre.
In fact, the American version is not a true translation, but is instead
a "parody dub". The American version also has different music and sound
effects than that of the original Japanese version.
