Card shop spiral

// ABOUT THIS SHOP

Card shop spiral, on the 3rd floor of the Sekine Building, is strong on play-ready singles for Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokémon (the 2nd floor handles other titles such as One Piece and Duel Masters — a floor-by-floor setup). Staple cards are arranged in the showcases in Japanese alphabetical order, with normals and foils kept separate, and that easy-to-search display has won it a following among players. Its new-release singles corner and bargain corner are well regarded for their pricing, and it has long been used as a practical shop for filling in the missing pieces of a deck. It also stocks plenty of card gacha (oripa) for those who enjoy chasing a hit. Buying centres on Yu-Gi-Oh!, with customers noting careful, quick appraisals. It takes cash as well as credit and UnionPay cards, and you can buy boxes through its online store (card-spiral.jp). More about affordable cards for actual play than flashy graded pieces, it suits both players kitting out a deck and collectors digging for a find — a practical fixture of Sotokanda 3-chome.
