During the New Year's holiday in Japan, a traditional activity for the family is to play a card game known as 'karuta.' In this game, one person reads out a poem or well-known proverb, and the player who most quickly identifies the card with the corresponding picture or character wins the card. One of the oldest and best-known versions of this game in Japan is 'Hyakunin Isshu karuta.'

Hyakunin Isshu [One Hundred Poets, One Poem Each] is a collection of 100 short poems, known as tanka. Tanka is a form of Japanese traditional poetry comprised of just five lines with a total of 31 syllables grouped in lines of 5, 7, 5, 7 and 7 syllables. The first three lines, composed of 17 syllables, are called 'kaminoku,' and the final two lines composed of 14 syllables are called 'shimonoku.' These groups of lines create a beautiful rhythm.

During the latter half of the Heian period (late 8th to late 12th century), poetry writing to express the beauty of nature or feelings of love became extremely popular among the aristocracy. It was against this backdrop that the Hyakunin Isshu anthology was compiled around 1235 as a collection of 100 poems from 100 poets dating from the mid-seventh century onwards.

In later ages, this poetry collection was adapted into the easy-to-play karuta card game, which remains popular to this day. Hyakunin Isshu karuta is a fun way of becoming familiar with classical poetry, so it is often included in classes at elementary and junior high schools. But recently, it has seen a fresh boom in interest among young people in Japan.

What is Karuta?

Karuta is a collectible card game powered by Discord that currently features more than 70,000 anime characters. If you’re a fan of bots such as Mudae or WaifuBot, you’ll love Karuta! It puts a unique spin on this familiar bot model by turning thousands of anime characters into cards that you can earn, burn, collect, and trade!

Here are just some of the reasons why you should invite Karuta to your server.

Mudae is fun, but doesn’t it suck that claiming your favorite character only matters in one server? Plus, who wants to constantly have their claims reset every other month? With Karuta, your cards, items, and statistics go with you across every Discord server!

Some people prefer manually rolling waifus like in Mudae, others prefer the spawns coming to them like in Pokécord. With Karuta, you don’t have to pick! Get the best of both worlds by dropping your own cards on cooldown and seeing cards drop automatically during times of high server activity.

Some people just want the thrill of owning their favorite anime characters as cards, and Karuta offers that. For those who want more, Karuta provides a never-ending supply of cosmetic and vanity perks to look out for. Karuta has unique print numbers, card qualities that actually show, and a lot more!

Karuta allows players to trade every card and item that exists. This makes for a dynamic and interesting trade economy that benefits the craftiest of traders. Have a card someone wants? You can barter for their gold, tickets, dust, blessings, or anything else!

No more waiting for months at a time for bug fixes or updates. Karuta’s developers work on a daily basis to improve the bot’s stability and add new features for you to enjoy!

Karuta puts players and economy first. Through extensive logging and an active support team, anyone abusing selfbots or alternate accounts are quickly banned.

How to Set Up Karuta in Your Server

To add Karuta to your server, use the invitation link and make sure that you’ve given the bot all of the required permissions.

It’s very important that Karuta has the ability to read messages in every channel of your server. Without these permissions, Karuta will not be able to provide your server with the highest amount of automated card drops. Automated card drops are based on server activity, which is determined only if the bot can see where active text chats are occurring in your server. If you want to disable Karuta’s ability to respond to commands in any channel, simply remove its ability to send messages in those channels.

Karuta works best when given its own channel. When you’ve picked a channel where you’d like cards to drop in, use the k!set command in it to set the active Karuta channel. This tells the bot where to send all automated card drops and prevents server members from dropping cards anywhere except in this channel.

One last, optional step to setting up Karuta is setting your server’s chest goal. Each Karuta server has its own chest, which you can think of as an inventory that belongs to the server. Members of your server can contribute gems to this chest, which can then be used to unlock special perks for your server. Currently, the only server-based perk available is the Abundance Aura. To set this item as your server’s chest goal, use the k!chestset abundance aura command.

That’s all it takes! Karuta is now set up in your server and your members can begin dropping cards and grabbing as they please.

How to Play Karuta

Although Karuta has dozens of commands, which you can find further down this page, the bot’s two core mechanics are dropping and grabbing.

Dropping

Users can drop cards by going to the server’s active Karuta channel and using the k!drop command. This command will allow you to drop three cards with a 30-minute cooldown. Both the number of cards dropped and cooldown can be improved through items in the gem shop.

Additionally, the server will automatically drop cards based on the server’s chat activity. If many users are actively chatting, cards can drop as frequently as once every minute. For less active servers, cards will drop slower.

Grabbing

When you see a card you want to add to your collection, click or tap on the reaction beneath the card drop which corresponds to it. For example, if the card you want was dropped as the second card in the set, you’d click or tap the 2️⃣ emoji reaction.

If no one else reacts to that same card within one second, it’s yours. Otherwise, all users who react to the card will fight over it. Fighting for a card is a simple RNG mechanic where a random user who reacted is awarded the card, which is intended to help out high-latency players and discourage botting. Players who manually drop cards will always win fights for their dropped cards.
