Zatch Bell 2 for 1 Spell Books Brago Zatch Bell Black Red (The Card Battle)

Got this on a whim because I am a fan of the show, thought they looked neat, and found the under $20 price tag reasonable. My observations:• I thought they would arrive in a plastic bag based on the picture but they came in a hard plastic container. The container looks like it was stepped on, but the books appear to be undamaged and in great condition.• The books are about 4 inches tall and seem to be made of sturdy cardboard. The back looks like the front but is marked up with the copyright text such as the series name "ZATCHBELL!". The spin has a simple star design on it.• The symbol markings on the books are actually very vibrant and show up really well on them, way better than what the example image shows. The black book uses silver which looks consistent in any setting while the red book uses red that looks dark most of the time but when viewed at certain angles appears to be glowing right out of the book!• Inside each book are16 glued in card sleeves with no way to add more (unless you were to glue more in yourself) that are able to easily slide in two poker sized cards per a sleeve.• Each book came with card (also in great condition) inside it from a card game based off the show, with a Zatch Bell card in the red book and a Brago card in the black book.Overall these a fun little pocket books for cards that, as a fan of the show, I am pleased to have purchased.

They look awsome just as i remembered them, im currently using them to hold spell cards for D&D. Works just as expected
