Chihayafuru

Ohayou Minna xD

Today I will talk about Chihayafuru !!

Weee weee, this anime is very different from the animes I’ve ever watched!

The story talks about a card game of Japan, the characters really like to play it, and during the anime you learn a lot of the rules and the difficulties of get better on it.

Basically, this game consists in catch as fast as you can be the cards recited by the reader. There are 100 tanka poems, each player randomly selects 25 of 50 torifudas which are also randomly selected from the 100, and put them in three rows on its territory. They have 15 minutes to memorize all the cards and their positions, and the final two minutes, you can practice movements to get the cards as soon as they are read. The first player to end up with of all the cards of their territory wins.

This game have a lot of difficulties, you have to pay attention in the reader's voice and your reading pace, the speed and precision you can get the cards, the movements should be short and direct, among others.

I finished the anime wanting to play this complicated game, and try, as much as the characters be the best player like Queen and Master of Karuta xD
