Earlier this week, manga writer Viz Media introduced that the cardboard sport manga would lastly be getting an English translation this coming autumn, and better of all for Magic gamers, it will include an unique card.
“Looks like in every thing he does, geeky Tokigawa Center Faculty pupil Hajime Kano at all times is available in second place behind fashionable honor pupil Emi Sawatari,” reads an official plot description of the manga. “However when Hajime takes a visit to a brand new sport retailer he’s been listening to about, their rivalry takes an sudden flip.
