What it does

On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 4 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 1998

A news site covering anime, manga, video games and Japanese pop culture, with forums and a large encyclopedia of titles.

It took over editorial control of the magazine Protoculture Addicts, which ran from 2005 to 2008, and keeps separate news editions for five regions. In November 2022 Kadokawa agreed to buy a majority of its media business.

In 1998: Founded in July by Justin Sevakis.

Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
