If a flower token is off putting to someone, perhaps a samurai card game is not the right fit for them.

Gosh, i was playing wrong game for 11 years.

I personally will be replacing my pink cardboard tokens with much prettier pink acrylic ones.

I'm kinda curious to see what someone Etsy's for cherry blossom tokens.

I have friends who own a laser etching business. I already have plans to have tokens made. Especially since they'll happily trade me for cheesecake most of the time.

It's never too late to start playing mlp tcg.

I thought we settled that it was a cultural/taste matter some hours ago. How isn't this thread dead already ?

How does one get both cheesecake AND tokens though?

That being said, I'd be curious what SVGs people come up with for laser cutting/etching new tokens.

I own a cheesecake bakery, so I get the best of both worlds.

I've already started brainstorming tokens based on what we've seen. I'll probably have a batch made once we know if there are any other ones we'll need and quantities.

Any thoughts on how to handle the 2-sided nature of the Rings? I like the idea of flipping them over, but it probably needs to be red/blue for ease of use for other people.

Will you make some sakura blossom alike topings for your chesecakes at the release?
Every release event should get one

You can gain imperial favor for this.

I remember the scene in The Last Samurai when Katsumoto said "The perfect blossom is a rare thing. You could spend your life looking for one, and it would not be a wasted life." while looking at sakura.

Interestingly, I've read that the association between sakura and samurai largely postdates the end of the samurai class.

Movies and reality do not tend to match.

Hm...how could one go about preserving real sakura petals to use?

I like that we're debating pink flowers in a game that has featured purple ponies as a playable faction since its launch.

And it would be the same if the stats were on the right side of the cards.

Isn't Japanese read from right to left? Maybe it was a flavor decision.
