We finally see the face of the girl from “Star Restart” and “Star of the Beginning”!
RD/TB02-JP069 流聖のプリアージュ Ryuusei no Pliage (Pliage the Sacred Shooting Star)
Level 3 LIGHT Psychic Effect Monster
ATK 1000
DEF 1000
[REQUIREMENT] During your Main Phase in which you have not drawn a card.
[EFFECT] Choose 1 “Star Restart” or “Star of the Beginning” in your GY and add it to your hand, then, you draw 1 card.
Note: Pliage is French for “To fold” or “To bend” something. “Le Pliage” is the name of a French luxury handbag made by Longchamp, well known to Japanese consumers.
Ryuusei is Japanese for “Meteor” or “Shooting Star”, with the Star replaced with “Sacred” or “Holy”.

This card would have been a better fit in the Neo Legend Awakening Pack but I am glad the young girl featured on the newer Spell Card is an actual monster now.
Requirement is decent, and both Spells are versatile. The additional draw also helps to offset Star Restart’s requirement and gives you some hand control if you have an unwanted card in hand.
Probably will see the most play in Metarion as they’re the one Deck that is most supported here. And to a lesser extent LIGHT Galaxy and JAM.
The draw is mainly to shut the card off so you can’t loop the Star spells but it’s def a nicer “drawback” over giving it the rare HOPT.
It’ll likely make Arc Talents only worth running for budget Metarion builds
No ritual card?
Rituals mechanically have not been officially revealed yet only alluded to due to the anime and Jump Festa and teased for future products. Until we get an official proclamation of how they work, I can’t see them being announced. I also think Rituals are something that would first be covered in V-JUMP not via a Twitter reveal. Diskarma would also be the first reveal as well.
We still have the rest of this set and Galactica of Eternity to cover before we can think about Ritual support.
I think that “Balloon Bahtia” would be the first ritual card.
Hoping they bring back Elgyem and Beheeyem in Pokemon AZ.
Konami has confirmed “Structure Deck: Black Magic Ritual” will be the debut product for Ritual Summon.
What about Diskarma?
Seemingly to be unprinted for the forseeable future.
Two Ritual cards confirmed.
-Magician of Black Chaos
-Diskarma (??? for RD OCG)
Diskarma is not confirmed to be printed at all for the foreseeable future.
Diskarma’s artwork is RD OCG artwork instead of anime artwork. I think that they already drawn Diskarma before OCG.
The closest we’ll get to Ritual Monsters in Rush Duels is April 2025.
However, Ritual Monsters coming out of the Anime (like Diskarma) are not believed to be in print until June or July 2025.
For some reason, Konami is holding off on Diskarma to be released in some other Pack.
Now we just the girl related with that Wind Psychic Normal Monster get her own card too
Also one for the Cosmo Goddess spell card
That requires Handy Lady to get support as it’s tied to her.
Handy Lady seems like one of those cards that will get its own Deck at some point, but Konami hasn’t yet decided to release it.
I bet Handy Lady Deck would be more popular than Decks like Love or Berry Free.
where’s the last red-eyes card? :O
The reprints are slowly being revealed on social media for each theme so if there are any new cards left they will be quickly revealed.
The full contents of this set will be known in about 2 weeks.
Finally, Yuo’s unofficial Waifu is here.
I guess this Monster will have its niches especially with the Spell Cards that it works with.
By the way, this reveal confirms that JP069 onwards are generic/original support for various Decks or specific cards.
This entire set is looking so fun, too bad I can only play rush on simulators but it’s ok
If it makes you feel any better, it’s entirely like Rush would have the same absurd prices the TCG has if it launched here. I’m just glad it’s playable on sims at all since it’s one of my favorite casual TCGs now
Very strong card. Even being able to loop Beginning Star once is super strong, plus the benefit of a draw if you’re also running Star Restart so the cost of that is easier to fulfill.
Likely the closest thing we’re getting to a new Gyakutenno Megami for Metarion but she’s cute so I can’t complain
