Duel Masters LOST: Danzai no Shōnen main PV reveals cast and ending theme
The main promotional video previews Tsukuyomi’s ending theme and confirms two new cast members ahead of the 9 October debut.
Duel Masters LOST has revealed the main promotional video for its fourth part, Danzai no Shōnen (The Sentencing Boy), previewing Tsukuyomi’s ending theme “Tuitachi feat. Yoshino.” and confirming two new cast members ahead of the 9 October debut.
What the main video reveals
The two newly announced cast members are Masaya Matsukaze as Murasaki, a man known as “the street duel legend”, and Yurika Kubo as Hiyo Moriguchi, a girl who appears before Win and the others.
The series will debut on 9 October with four episodes, streaming on the official Duel Masters YouTube channel and other services. New episodes arrive every other week on Fridays at 9:00 p.m. JST.
Nina Tamaki voices the character Lost Kōzaki, having previously played a mysterious boy in the earlier instalment. Riki Fukushima directs at J.C. Staff and SMDE, with Yōichi Katō overseeing series scripts, Chikara Hashizume designing the characters and Go Sakabe composing the music.
The anime adapts the Duel Masters LOST manga, itself based on the long-running Duel Masters trading card game. The Danzai no Shōnen manga arc ran from 26 March to 2 July, and a fifth part, Shitsuraku no Duel, began on 17 September.
Our opinion
The every-other-week, four-episode format remains the most interesting thing about the Duel Masters LOST net anime: it is short-form storytelling built to keep the card game’s newest arc visible between set releases, not a full-season commitment. That constraint has produced surprisingly focused mini-series so far, and Danzai no Shōnen looks set to continue the pattern with a tighter cast and a distinct musical identity from Tsukuyomi. The appeal is inherently tied to knowing the game — but the LOST parts have managed enough atmosphere that a casual viewer can still enjoy them as brief, self-contained stories.
