Happy 4th Anniversary @Azuki ⛩️ Vibes were high this weekend, went to two shops and there was peeps playing @AzukiTCG / Alpha boxes in place. @g3nkitcg and @RWTCollective . The current local community has been having fun with Azuki TCG and we can see the excitement around the players and spectators asking more about Azuki. There was interest in the IP and excitement on the gameplay. It was great meeting everyone old and new - gave out some gifts to non Garden members but I see them playing with us in discord and connecting / meeting in person. Met @RaffyTCG // @merchtcg at RWT also. Playtesting with @alexhughsam Great event experience at Azuki HQ by @JCM1117 and the crew. Everyone and the locals were friendly and vibes were immaculate as the OG community and Garden folks mingled with the local TCG players. The place was jam packed and everyone was buzzing about BJMC cards // @pekrys 's Pekiro (Was one of the most played card in the tourney) The recognition is sparking on holding licensed IP assets and it's something that's came from a long way. We were also testing the App by @Azuki that worked really well (Can see the vision with flex / locals / online tourney usage) Will post the image / deck I played under Two community sims by @MageArmour / @Dirtboy4fun + Potentially sim from the official team. Azuki TCG Community Discord: discord.gg/s46YdujFuk // @0xWaifu_ Community Proxy: azuki-tcg-deckbuilder.vercel… // @AzdRTapas Community Articles / Deck Pages: thegateikz.com/ // @TheGateIKZ // @ExpectedValue_ As the last Alpha boxes launch soon - Set 1 will be dropping around end of Q2 with the biggest TCG distributor in NA + Nationals aiming as the big incentive to keep the momentum going around EoY. The future is bright and I can feel that spark again this weekend. Hopefully the waves ripple thru the nation as they expand towards New York. The manga everyone can enjoy is also coming (With holder's being licensed again) The community and assets being involved as Azuki continues their journey forward being a decentralized brand. Azuki will also make an appearance at Paris Fashion Week to show the quality and top tier product of what they keep executing. AnimeCom is also making waves with higher and higher monthly DAU plus continuous features being shipped. Azuki Studio locked in a big anime for revenue and making it in the works with @febtea. Can't wait to see that logo being flashed at the start of the film! The company is strong and have many years of runway to keep proliferating the IP and bring the community along growing hand in hand. Garden on Top🫡 (Hopefully means more when we see the crew reach top 8 consistently - Grat's again @bf82424!) Wanted to post this on anniversary (Am late to something - been a tight schedule weekend and Monday but I hope you get a gist of the event and my experience. The potential for Azuki this year is tall!) IKZ!
