Teacher Designed Cardgame Takes Off
Date: 11/2/2005
Asahi Shimbun reports a Japanese teacher designed his own "History Character" and "Administrative Division" cardgames and they've been picked up in elementary schools nationwide. Tsutomu Mitsuhashi (39) of Chiba prefecture got the idea when the Pokemon trading card craze took off several years ago. The cards use a combat system that lets players work in teams. He handrew illustrations for more than 140 types of cards during the winter break last year. 20,000 cards were sold in April when a company, shingakusha sold it via the direct sale of the school for 350 Yen each. It is said that one hundred poem-cards with will hit the market in December.
