The TCG premieres appearing for the first time in Japanese are:
\nReadying of Rites: \u4f9b\u7269\u306e\u4e0b\u3054\u3057\u3089\u3048 (Kumotsu no Shitagoshirae). For context, Ritual Raven’s Japanese name is \u5100\u5f0f\u306e\u4f9b\u7269 (Gishiki no Kumotsu, Ritual Offering). “Shitagoshirae” is “pre-preparation”, so a direct translation would be Readying of the Offering.<\/p>\n

Miracle Raven: \u30df\u30e9\u30af\u30eb\u30fb\u30ec\u30a4\u30f4\u30f3\uff0d\u4f9b\u7269\u306e\u5100\u5f0f\uff0d (Mirakuru Reivun – Kumotsu no Gishiki). The first part of the name is just the English words “Miracle Raven”. The second part inverts the Japanese name of Ritual Raven (Ritual Offering -> Offering Ritual\/Ritual *of the* Offering).<\/p>\n

Sakra Vendirage: \u96f7\u9706\u30ce\u9b54\u8ecd\u795e (Raitei no Magunshin), force-read as \u30b7\u30e3\u30af\u30e9\uff1d\u30f4\u30a7\u30f3\u30c7\u30a3\u30c0\u30fc\u30c8 (Shakra=Vendidad<\/a>). The name in Kanji is “Demonic War God of Thunder”.<\/p>\n

ASHLAN U1000: \uff21\uff33\uff28\uff2c\uff21\uff2e\uff0d\uff35\uff11\uff10\uff10\uff10\u578b (Ashuran U1000 Gata). The “Gata” at the end means “model”.<\/p>\n

\nPesanta the Titan of Troubadours (SR)
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Soulicer Crystal (N)
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
