I didn't realize when I asked for this what I was getting into. These animations are something else!

Duel Masters (Englush dub of season 1) is pretty great, at times.
Season 2 has some pretty great moments too.

It's kind of great how many people are surprised by the game's production values.

Or lack thereof.

Can I step in and say that I think that Duel Masters' mana mechanic is neat? I like that you can turn any card into mana, it makes sure you can always charge mana on your turn as long as you have at least 1 card in your hand so you never worry about not drawing enough lands in your starting hand. It also prompts interesting decisions, about what cards you sacrifice to use as mana instead of holding onto to cast/summon once you have enough.

Man did they ever release Duel Masters standalone on DVD or something? I remember loving the hell out of the show when it was on i think Toonami back in the day.

Sadly no, from what I can tell with a quick bit of googling. There's some DVDs Hasbro released covering the early bits of season 1, but they tend to cut or edit episodes to make them fit ~80 minutes per DVD.

He's got the most terrible, un-intimidating voice. Like, this is the voice you give your cool dark edgy blind guy?

Oh god, I had forgotten how terrible every human looks in this game. And I didn't expect Fire Monk's robe to be animated, somehow. How the hell is that possible? Also how big is that card if a single piece has that size? I'm pretty sure that'd be unplayable.

A few TCGs have novelty cards that are larger than normal. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Jumbo_cards_(TCG)

When I pushed for a Duel Masters LP, I was not expecting this... quality... of game.
