#multiply

Time for a little doubling trouble. Today's card is "Multiply"!

That's right, here's the support card everyone thinks of when they think of " Kuriboh"! A hilarious signature move for the little fella to have, if you ask me. Though according to the manga, this is a card any weaker monster can use; it's not limited in the same way Konami's card indicates.

This card's Japanese name, 「増殖」, seems to generally mean an increasing of some kind. Looking over the possibilities, I was briefly considering calling this card "Proliferation"; but this is yet another case where the difference between Konami international's interpretation and any change I could make would be minimal, at best.

I also ended up changing my interpretation of this card's function twice after its initial printing. It's a tricky card to get a handle on, funnily enough!

More on this process below! Plus, a look at this card's original pre-Konami original manga run colorscheme at the bottom of this post!
