"In the small town of Kawara in Fukuoka Prefecture, something unexpected is
happening at the Saidosho Community Center. While kids in most parts of Japan
are obsessed with Pokémon cards — or perhaps the franchise’s latest smartphone
game,
Pokémon TCG Pocket — the children of Kawara are clutching to something
a little closer to home.
They are playing a trading card game (TCG) where the stars aren’t fantasy
creatures, anime heroes or even famous baseball players, but
ojisan
(middle-aged or older men) from the local community of Saidosho."
