Good day folks! Answering to your requests, I just uploaded a new video where I talk about where you can buy the best hanafuda cards! I also teach you how to craft your own hanafuda, provide you with links to the cheat cards and original cards and ALSO include some medieval hanafuda designs I made myself (all for free!). Check it out here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/a3x1qdKuqqTch6g.html&ab_channel=AncientGaming It took some time xD, it is a video I have been wanting to do for a long time now, but I wanted to bring you some other cool games from other countries and cultures before. Feel free to suggest the next game you would like to see in the channel ;)

I am Japanese and love to play Hanafuda but didn't know its history! I love Hanafuda even more now😊

What a great idea adding the "cheat" part of the card, makes it so much easier to follow and learn the rules (Y) Gratis potatis!

Hello everyone! I've received messages from many of you asking me where you can get hanafuda cards, so I felt like giving you a quick update. The short answer is Amazon, eBay, Aliexpress, etc., but if you really want to go out of your way to buy top quality hanafuda, I will tell you how in one of my next videos. I'm currently in vacation in my home country and my equipment is in Sweden, but I have some videos in the making, so you won't have to wait too long :)

My Japanese friend laughed when I used the term "Hanafuda cards" and told me "hanafuda means 'flower cards', so you're saying 'flower cards cards'"

You seem like someone I'd get along with I too have always had a fascination in the ancient games and how they've evolved throughout history. I'm enjoying the videos keep up the great work.

IF I could like this video twice I would. This is an amazing historical insight. Thank you so much for sharing this. I will make sure to teach this to my daughter.

The history is so cool. I very recently learned of this game because of all things another card game I play that's not hanafuda. And I'm falling in love with it.

I just discovered this game and I'm so happy for this video. Not only to learn how to play, but I love the history of old games.

This is a really good video. Knowing the story behind something helps a lot in the learning process.

I love it!. Interesting story, beautiful cards and fun game. Thank you. Where the best cards be found?

As a fellow ancient games enthusiast was delighted to see this channel. Great research and presentation. Looking forward to such games as Merrills, Ur, and Konane. Am eagerly awaiting the next videos.

I am just learning to play Hanafuda. I would oftently find the game in video games but had no idea how to play. Now I'm learning and I am having fun. Now, I need to remember all the patterns you can form to get points and those are a little hard to remember.

Of all these years of playing Duel Masters it took 20 years to learn that Shobu’s name means game

Vielen Dank fürs Video! Mach weiter so! LG aus Hamburg...

Very fascinating history behind Hanafuda cards. One character I know of besides Mario who is associated with Hanafuda cards is Genjuro Kibagami from Samurai Showdown, as he often references the cards in some of his attacks.

I was looking for gifts and found hanafuda cards (was looking for playing cards with Japanese art on them) on Amazon I was intrigued and want to learn how to play 😀 this is so interesting.

Hi Nicholas! Thank you very much :D. The hanafuda cards you see in the thumbnail are a pre-ww2 Nintendo design. As for the other cards you see in the background, those are known as uta-garura or uta-karuta (literally "poetry cards", the word karuta is basically how a Japanese would typically say the Spanish and Portuguese word for card: "carta". I intend to cover them in another video, they do have an interesting history behind them as well :)

What is it with Japan and card/board games that practically require a cheat sheet? They took Mahjong and made Riichi Mahjong, and then this. Both of these games can't actually be fully comprehended without cheat sheets or an insane amount of experience.

i still don't know how to play mahjong but koi koi takes just a couple games looking at a sheet of the different hands and then you got it, it's so much simpler than it seems at first. i think learning in a game is probably easier than learning w physical cards, there are a couple of mobile apps, clubhouse games on the switch, or if you really wanna have fun get one of the yakuza/judgment games. you'll have it down in no time at all

Okay who is this unreasonably gorgeous guy teaching me about this card game?

Who makes that deck and where can I get one? Please and Thank you!!!

Kool game. Cute guy 👀

It is so fun, I play with the AI on the app, it has a certain level of risk when calling Koi Koi, I usually just pass when I get a winning hand

Ebay, or Amazon (either US or the Japanese version, which can be switched to English). Do also search under Hwatu (as well as Hanafuda) as that is what the Koreans call them, and their sets are usually cheaper. The "ultimate" luxury set is Nintendo's "daitouryou" set, which has Napoleon on the front. Watch out for ripoff prices, though, and shop around before you buy! For Korean cards, you shouldn't pay much more than $8 on Ebay - that is probably your best bet.
