Why didn't they just make Kaijudo a YU-GI-OH clone like the franchise it spawned from? Duel Masters has 14 seasons, 3 movies and 58 volumes of manga, this got 2 seasons.

Because the card game died out, so they had to make due with using the monsters and settings.
It's getting a new show about the cards, though, though it isn't a cartoon like Kaijudo, it's another anime.

When it comes to card games, you just can't beat the main three.

>American addition to a popular Japanese franchise somehow fails to be as good as the franchise it's based on
Color me surprised
There's a million different reasons I can give, but it's the same goddamn song on a broken record
kaijudo tried to be subtle about the product placement but its failer is more based on the fact it aired on the hub more than anything
Kaijudo was great. Everyone else is wrong for not giving it a chance.

I second that 'what!?'
If Duel Masters really did have 14 seasons, they certainly didn't ever get a western release.
They never even bothered to give proper DVD releases for all the episodes they DID bring over.

Duel Masters was made when the monster card hype was high. Kaijudo arrived way too late when the whole "kids using monsters to fight" genre was all but dead with the exception of Pokemon
>>82958877
The fact that the show wasn't a bunch of kids playing a card game was one of the best things about it.

That and like >>82962732 said, people just got burned out by shows like this.
A damn shame, this was my favorite cartoon on Hub.
I love how much development the characters got.

As I read the list their names became increasingly less creative so kinda zoned out and didn't even notice that one. Sounded like they didn't even know what to name their sequel series.

Fuck this, why did Bakugan have to die?
>>82963712
I totally forgot about Bakugan.
Which is odd considering that it used to get a lot of exposure at the time.
