The popular Duel Masters franchise continues to grow with the recent launch of the second part of the Duel Masters GT manga and the announcement of a fourth part for the Duel Masters LOST manga. These new installments promise to further immerse fans in the card-battle universe.
Duel Masters GT Embarks on a New Arc
Hiroki Kikuzuma and Daisuke Kawasaki have launched the second part of their Duel Masters GT manga, titled Duel Masters GT2 -Gate of the Teleport-. This new chapter became available on December 31 on Shogakukan’s Weekly CoroCoro Comic magazine website.
From “God of the Trickery” to “Gate of the Teleport”
Initially, the second part of Duel Masters GT was slated to be titled Duel Masters GT2 -God of the Trickery-. However, it is now officially listed as Duel Masters GT2 -Gate of the Teleport-. The first part of the manga, Duel Masters GT -Gear of the Twin heart-, began serialization in August 2025 and concluded in October 2025. This initial arc followed the Dragon Saga card lore, focusing on the twin children of Dragon Ruler Glenmalt, Grassa and Turret.
Duel Masters LOST Prepares for its Fourth Part
Following the conclusion of its third part, Duel Masters LOST ~Bōkyaku no Taiyō~ (Duel Masters LOST: Oblivion Sun) on January 1, the Duel Masters LOST manga announced its forthcoming fourth installment. The Duel Masters LOST series, penned by Shigenobu Matsumoto and illustrated by Yō Kanebayashi, delves into an “alternate time story” that runs parallel to the Duel Masters Win narrative.
The Journey of Duel Masters LOST So Far
The Duel Masters LOST project began with Duel Masters LOST Tsuioku no Suishō (Duel Masters LOST: Crystal of Remembrance), which launched in February 2024 and concluded in March 2024. This initial manga centered on a 16-year-old Win Kirifuda, the protagonist of the Duel Masters Win anime, who has lost his memories and is drawn into a battle to reclaim his desired world.
Subsequently, Matsumoto and Kanebayashi released Duel Masters LOST ~Gekka no Shinigami~ (Duel Masters LOST: Reaper of the Moon) in August 2024, which ran until February 2025. This was followed by the third part, Duel Masters LOST ~Bōkyaku no Taiyō~, which debuted in September 2025 and recently wrapped up on January 1. The anime adaptation of Duel Masters LOST ~Bōkyaku no Taiyō~ is set to premiere on February 6 with a four-episode streaming run.
The Enduring Appeal of Duel Masters
The Duel Masters franchise, which originated as a multimedia project in 1999, has consistently released new manga, anime, and merchandise, maintaining its position as a significant entity in the card-battle genre, particularly in Japan where the trading card game remains popular. The continuous expansion of its manga universe with new entries like Duel Masters GT2 -Gate of the Teleport- and the upcoming fourth part of Duel Masters LOST underscores the franchise’s sustained creative output and dedicated fanbase.
