In Pajamas, Itsuki Nakano

Description

The 2021 release of Weiß Schwarz, The Quintessential Quintuplets, introduced a roster of characters designed for strategic depth within the trading card game. Among these is Itsuki Nakano, depicted in the 'In Pajamas' variant, identified by the card number 5HY/W83-E069. This character card belongs to the Quintuplets and Earnest subtypes, making it a functional piece for collectors building specific archetypes. In the context of the game, this card offers distinct mechanical utility. Its primary ability activates when a climax card matching its trigger icon is placed in the climax area, granting a chosen Quintuplets character +1 soul until the end of the turn. This effect supports aggressive playstyles that rely on maximizing soul count during critical moments. Additionally, its Act ability allows players to reveal cards from the top of their deck, potentially returning climax cards with matching trigger icons from the waiting room to hand. This brainstorming mechanic helps stabilize resources and maintain momentum during gameplay. Collectors of anime-themed trading card games often seek out cards that balance thematic appeal with in-game value. Itsuki Nakano’s presence in the Quintessential Quintuplets set provides a recognizable figure for fans while offering tangible benefits for deck construction. The card’s design and text box reflect the narrative tone of the series, capturing a moment of domestic life that contrasts with the high-stakes nature of the game itself. For those who appreciate the intersection of anime culture and strategic TCG mechanics, this card represents a solid addition to any collection focused on the Quintuplets faction.
