The trading card series "HiROQUEST Genesis," themed around the original fantasy universe "HiROQUEST" created by world-renowned artist Steve Aoki, which fuses elements of music, anime, art, and pop culture into a grand worldview, has now landed in Japan.
HiROQUEST is a fantasy universe created by Steve Aoki himself alongside his music of the same name. Set in the future, this world where diverse factions, heroes, and mystical powers intersect is the stage for a fierce battle over world balance and hegemony. While one group seeks to protect the world, others strive to seize special energies and interdimensional powers. Legendary characters, unique items, and factions with their own agendas – all of these are crucial pieces of the HiROQUEST narrative. This universe, where music, technology, mythology, and the future all converge, can be considered a culmination of Steve Aoki's own creativity.
"HiROQUEST Genesis" is a trading card series that condenses this worldview. The series includes a wide variety of cards, each possessing distinct appeal and collector's value.
Among the cards, the "AOKI 1OF1" is particularly drawing attention.
This is the ultimate chase card, with only one existing in the entire set, making it a true "holy grail" for collectors.
Similarly, the "Stamped Auto" card, featuring Steve Aoki's personal autograph, is another highly rare card and is expected to be one of the most popular in the set.
Additionally, the "Tour Date Card" depicts Steve Aoki's tour visuals, offering fans a more intimate connection with the artist and making it an unmissable insert.
Also drawing significant attention is the "Ring Redemption Card," a special card that can be exchanged for an actual "HiROQUEST" artifact (a ring). This card holds immense value for collectors.
Furthermore, there are many other cards depicting iconic scenes from the story or cute chibi versions of characters, allowing collectors to fully enjoy their passion.
Beyond its excellence as a trading card series, this collection, imbued with the creativity of global artist Steve Aoki on each card, is highly recommended not only for card collectors but also for fans of Steve Aoki, and those who love music, art, and culture.
As availability is limited within Japan, please purchase them at your nearest Mint store.
