Which do you prefer or feel looks better?

I really like the silver borders, personally. Looks very sleek!

I really like the silver border. I really like how clean they look.

Me too, and I also like that they are holo on holo cards. I also like that collectors of Japanese and English cards can have more consistency (like if I can’t get the English, a Japanese card doesn’t look “odd” next to my other cards). They should have done it sooner. Now if we could only get some more of the Japanese quality control too!!

The consistency is something I'm extremely glad about and in all honesty, it just makes collecting a lot simpler. Also puts less weight on collecting just Japanese cards if you're mostly interested in the silver borders or the holo borders. Was definitely a much needed change, imo. And yeah, the quality control really is... a bit rough in comparison lol Maybe it'll improve

Whenever I see a yellow border card now I have the feeling that it looks cheap. 😅 to go with silver was definitely the right choice.
