High Card's first season has arrived on Crunchyroll, offering both English dub and subtitle options for its complete 12-episode run. The series plunges viewers into a world where 52 special "X-Playing Cards" grant extraordinary powers, and their control dictates the global order.
Studio Hibari handled the animation for this urban fantasy, which adapts a manga and features a premise blending organized crime, car chases, and supernatural abilities. The story follows Finn, an orphan who gets swept up with a clandestine group tasked with retrieving these powerful cards amidst shootouts and a primarily adult cast.
With a MAL score of 7.16 and a second season already confirmed, the first season provides the necessary groundwork. It introduces the core characters, the high-stakes game of card control, and the volatile underworld where these powers manifest.
