Why so many Card Game cartoons?

Magic the Gathering has a manga now.

The first 3 generations (DM,GX,5D's) are very good, the fourth one (XEXAL) is lame,Arc-V is kind of dull,but at least makes enough homage to its predecesors,I didn't even tried to watch VRAINS,though
The main problem with the game is the shilling of new cards and forgeting the good ole ones that most people remember, the game with each generation comes with more rulings and Konami banning/restricting cards from competitive duels because greed
It's still comfy, though

5Ds and Zexal are peak Yugioh.

>ah, how the chains work
In real duels, it's note that complicated bc everyone uses the same 20 generic cards or the ones already linked to their deck archetype and already know enough

Maybe card games fans that will be disappointed to see the most hippy anime instead?

Was it kino?

How many cards does/co/ have and from which shows?

Why are card games considered normal but collecting toys not? Why are cards so popular?

Are they considered normal? The most normal card games are the ones played with trump cards which everyone knows. Shit like Yu-Gi-Oh isn't played seriously by any trump card game playing normie.

I like duel masters

Duel Masters had a great dub like I was watching an actual abridged series on tv

elementary, user. card game cartoons sell card games.

Beyblade's story was insane. They dealt with international espionage.

I'm a lot more familiar with MtG than any other card game, but I'm imagining there's similarities for YuGiOh/Pokemon/Any other card game that makes it big.

With most toy-selling shows, you have mostly some ~$15 dollar action figures, some $25 collections, and maybe a $50 toy building, where you buy these toys once, and you're done. With card games, it's just $4 packs, and $80 booster boxes with a bunch of packs. And you don't stop buying them. You just buy more and more and more. You can still get a full collection of each card of a set, but you'll want 3-4, since you can play more than one in a deck. And the average tournament ready decks can cost $500 or more, if you just buy singles from resellers. And they come up with new sets every few months, so the cards that you're playing with now have practically no value in two years.

Think all the negative aspects of 'Loot Boxes' you've heard of in modern video games, except the technology came out in the mid 1990's, and it's much more explicitly marketed towards 8 year olds.

There was a card game FOR it
But there was a card game for everything.

It was kino

Shaman King wasn't a card game show, but it did have one, like everything else at the time.
Though I only ever got my hands on one card, I wish I could have found more, because it was different that any other tcg as the cards had little tabs you could pull to reveal special abilities inside, and I wanted to know what the fuck was up with that.

The dbz card game had cards that would fold out
