 *Final notes: The card's type is Psychic, and the attack requires two Psychic energies. The card's HP is probably 100, since only one digit is unlikely. Is this is the case, the attack's power is 1--, possibly 10-. The card is weak against Psychic and resistant to nothing. This card's retreat cost is 2.
 If you can help translate more (especially the incomplete word below the attack name, I get the feeling I'm missing something that could be obvious) or notice a mistake I've made, please say so.

+:I'm not sure what all the difficulty is in deciphering this card, but you've put a lot of work into it and pretty much figured it out. I guess the article has most of it by now, but just in case here is all that I can make out (minus the numbers because they are some made up runes that I don't understand)
+:*Mew (clearly legible in younger futhark)
+:*HP (on the right before the triangle, which appears to be a number)
+:*Psyche (the power - I had a little trouble with this at first because the runes are slightly different, but that is definitely what it says)
+:*New Species (in the middle right under the line)
+:*"Little god ... or evil" (right below that, just as it says in the article)
+:*Retreat cost (below that under the line. the cost appears to be two energy of any type)
+:*Weakness (above the triangle on the left)
+:*Resistance (above the triangle on the right)
+:This is all relatively legible if you understand how to read the varieties of runes used here. My only uncertainty is the numbers. The article says that the attack damage and the HP are both 40, but they are clearly different on the card. There are only two digits shown, a triangle (I will write X) and a boxy thing (I will write Y). The attack damage given is XY, and the HP given is X. If we assume that the attack is indeed 40, then the HP must be 4 (an impossible HP) unless the numbers work in a way I don't understand. It could be that they are written Japanese-style (using 10 instead of 0) and written backwards, so that it has 10 HP, but that is purely conjectural. -[[User:WurdBendur|WurdBendur]] 09:49, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
