In Japanese tradition, the moth is more than an insect-it is a vessel. It is widely believed that the souls of the departed transform into moths to navigate their way to the afterlife.
This deck honors the duality of these ethereal creatures. We draw inspiration from the legendary Mothra, the benign giant of cinema who serves as a protector of culture and nature. As Mothra lives, dies, and is reborn through her offspring, she represents the eternal cycle of the spirit.
Episode USA: The Metamorphosis
In the United States, the butterfly is a powerful totem of Transformation. Drawing from Native American heritage and modern metaphors, this deck explores the butterfly as a symbol of hope, comfort, and the "Great Circle of Life."
However, metamorphosis carries a darker edge in urban folklore. It serves as a stark reminder that to become something new, the old self must die. Whether viewed as a peaceful transition or a chilling inevitability, the butterfly represents the one thing no one can escape: Change.
