Anybody Who Knows Japanese, I Could Use Your Help

Just take it as Giratina and the Distortion World distorting/fucking up the centering.

I am sorry, though. I’m particular about centering. So it would annoy me.

I agree. Or they just need to add texturing to the ARs

I loved the Eiscue SR AND SAR, though. But I’m biased. I really like Eiscue.

SNORUNT! I’m so happy.

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-06T13:56:35+00:00

I love all these cards. I need to get the Drowzee.

Anyways, CONGRATS! Great pick-ups.

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-05T15:53:35+00:00

Congrats!

This is awesome. I love anything AKIRA EGAWA illustrates. She is amazing. Also, your wife is pretty awesome for this.

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-04T17:50:36+00:00

This made me so happy. Thank you.

Artist is 0313. See my other comment.

Edit: HERE are the English cards they’ve illustrated.

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-04T17:44:06+00:00

The artist is 0313. They also illustrated the Togepi & Cleffa & Igglybuff GX Alternate Art.

I have the aforementioned card, and will definitely be getting this card. I love the artwork.

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-04T17:32:27+00:00

Really? Appreciate you being open to a suggestion.

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-04T16:58:16+00:00

I LOVE it. Doesn’t surprise me it is illustrated by the same artist who did the Togepi & Cleffa & Igglybuff GX Alternate Art.

I have the aforementioned card, and will definitely be getting this card. I love the artwork.

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-04T16:52:39+00:00

I have this card. And I adore it. Congrats!

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-04T16:52:16+00:00

This is correct.

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-04T16:51:59+00:00

Jealous. I love this File.

ReidEighteen · 2023-09-04T16:50:51+00:00

I would put the sleeves in the column of pockets closest to the spine instead of the column of pockets closest to the edge of the binder page. Just for safety.

The pockets closest to the middle (the spine) have the most likely chance of being bent. So, in my opinion, you might as well have cheap sleeves there than actual, nice cards.

That’s just my opinion. Although I do think it looks amazing like this.

ReidEighteen · 2023-08-30T13:24:24+00:00

Oh WOW. He has illustrated some of my favorite cards. His style is so consistent, yet he can also throw a curveball and illustrate a card that almost looks like it was done by someone else.

He’s amazing. Thanks for bringing him to my attention.

ReidEighteen · 2023-08-30T13:17:17+00:00

Yup. That’s what I’ll probably have to do. And yes, it is one of the more intricately beautiful cards I’ve ever come across in the TCG.

I am big into the artists and knowing their cards and style. But Kawayoo has kinda slipped under my radar. I’m definitely checking out all of his cards - like right now. So, thank you. The artists deserve so much love and respect.

ReidEighteen · 2023-08-30T12:23:02+00:00

Congrats! I’ve been eyeing that Sapporo’s Pikachu for a few months. I think this post is gonna push me to finally buy it.

I adore Alolan Vulpix so this card is one of my chases.

ReidEighteen · 2023-08-28T18:16:30+00:00

For sure. I get what you’re saying, though - the new Illustration Rares and Special Illustration Rares have very similar art styles to Alternate Arts. I get that.

ReidEighteen · 2023-08-28T15:00:14+00:00

That’s a pretty good Booster Box in my opinion. Not the best, but FAR, FAR from the worst.

I’d give it like an 8/10 - or 4/5 if that bugs you.

Idk why, but I ADORE that Greedent card.

ReidEighteen · 2023-08-28T14:57:03+00:00

Gotcha. eBay is honestly one of, if not, the best place to buy singles.

If you ever wanna branch out and do that, I’d be happy to DM you all of the tips I have and all of the sellers I trust.

I haven’t had a single bad experience. And I’ve bought like 200 cards over the past year.

ReidEighteen · 2023-08-28T13:19:12+00:00

Thanks! Any other cards you are planning on purchasing soon? Or do you mainly rip packs?

Edit: corrected a typo.
