“I’m home! Itadakimasu! (~Let’s eat!)”

“Sora-chan! I got it!!! I’m so happy!!!!”

“I trusted Sora-chan and made a detour, and was able to safely pick up a clear file!!!!! I’m so happy!!!!!”

“I bought them immediately!

I didn’t get Sora-chan on my first time…but I got Sora-chan’s buddy, Aoi-chan!

And I got 2 Yomemi-chans, who collaborated with Sora-chan…This is a miracle!”

“I got a Normal one.”

“AAAAAAAA!! I GOT SORA!!!!!”

“Baaa~ Finally, I got ‘Deron’ [nickname for Kaede Higuchi]

Baaa… Cat-Deron is cute~”

“A template. (all hand-made)

Use it freely everyone! (don’t abuse it)”

“I got myself! I’m so happy!! hahahaha”

“two cards hahaha”

“I bought two bags and got my card both times!!!! Wow!!!!!”

“Where are you selling these?”

“Hell”

“I didn’t get the hololive group that I wanted, but I’m satisfied.

But Baacharu this is you? lol”

Now, a few of the top collectors.

“I bought a lot of clear files!”

“Does anyone want to duel me?”

“I bought a lot.

I’ll record a video of me opening them and upload it later.”

“I’m looking to trade!

Looking for: RukiRoki, Shiro, Fubuki, cards I don’t have.

Trading: Any equivalent exchange to some extent, cards you don’t have.

SR cards are not in the picture, but we can definitely trade those.”

“(I didn’t get Fubuki’s SR so I’m personally defeated…)”

“I bought 10 boxes (120 bags) and got 9 SRs.

There’s not always 1 SR per box.

I hope this is helpful for those thinking about buying them after tomorrow!

By the way, the N and R cards are very cute (except for some), so be sure to buy more!”

“’except for some’ lol”

“It seems there’s been a mistake, and a real horse got mixed in with the others (jk)”
