Duel Masters, the popular manga and anime franchise based on card games, kicks off 2026 with news for Brazilian fans. This January, mangakas Hiroki Kikuzuma and Daisuke Kawasaki launched the second part of the Duel Masters GT series, titled Gate of the Teleport, on the Weekly CoroCoro Comic magazine website. Meanwhile, the Duel Masters LOST saga also remains popular, with the official announcement of its fourth part right after the conclusion of the third. This activity reinforces the franchise’s vitality in Japan and its continued impact among enthusiasts in Brazil, where collectible card games maintain a loyal fan base.
These new narratives arrive to expand an already established universe. The first part of Duel Masters GT, for example, premiered in August and ended in October 2025, demonstrating a fast-paced production rhythm. On the other hand, the manga Duel Masters LOST maintains a similar cadence, with its third part concluding on January 1, 2026. In this way, the creators ensure a constant flow of new content, feeding the global fan community that follows the stories and strategic duels between characters.
The Expanding Universe of Duel Masters LOST
In addition to the main manga, the Duel Masters LOST franchise also stands out for its anime adaptations. The third part of the story, Bōkyaku no Taiyō, which has just been completed, will receive its animated version starting February 6, 2026. This adaptation will follow the lean format of the previous ones, with a streaming run planned for four episodes. Therefore, fans can expect a true immersion in the universe, with new content both in the pages of the manga and on screen.
Thus, the year 2026 begins with good prospects for Duel Masters enthusiasts. With new manga chapters underway and an anime premiere already scheduled, the franchise demonstrates that it is far from running out of ideas. For the Brazilian audience, accustomed to following successful Japanese series, this is an opportunity to reconnect with a title that blends strategy, fantasy, and the excitement of card duels.
