The Shonen Jump Championships, as far as I can tell, is a tournament for a card game akin to Magic: The Gathering, based on the kids show “Yu-Gi-Oh”.
Some of the highlights of the event: -Win-a-Mat? -Dragon Duel Tournament? -“ATTACK OF THE GIANT CARD!!” (the stress is theirs, not mine) There’s a little confusion about whether...
