Hi there! This is the last item of our five-day Star Wars series:
Hanafuda are playing cards of Japanese origin that are used to play a number of games. The name literally translates as "flower cards." Each deck comes with 48 cards and is traditionally printed with scenes of nature and flowers. These cards are decorated with flowers as well, but lets not forget the Star Wars characters! The name also refers to games played with those cards. There are many games you can play with these cards, so you'll never get bored of them!
And now for Cirno's Perfect Trivia Class!
