It looks very interesting... Im searching the net for info about it but cant seem to find a thing. The pictures of the cards are awesome though. Hopefully ill find some info on it tomorrow. I'm too tired right now. -.-

A link to this was at the bottom of the wiki page, but as i said before, I'm too tired to read it now. There may be useful info in here though.

Be careful, it looks like there is a lot of different versions of it that may not be what your looking for.

Thanks for the info you guys! And speaking of the versions Obake is the one I'm very interested in because it involves all the monsters of Japanese legend, sort of like old-skool pokemon! Thanks again for the help! (PS eBay doesn't have them!)
