Who'll love it
Made for sci-fi fans, action fans and families.
The mood
Exciting.
The pace
21 seasons, but most episodes stand on their own, so you can dip in anywhere (about 24 minutes each).
What might put you off
  • Rated TV-Y7: scary moments and peril. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

A mysterious organization is interested in fledging duelist Shobu Kirifuda's ability to bring Duel Master creatures to life. With the support of his friends, Shobu duels with passion, discipline, and heart as he strives to be like his father and become the next Kaijudo master.
