Considered by many to be the Japanese equivalent of Walt Disney in terms of innovation in the techniques and style of the medium, influence on the entertainment culture, and overall impact on the market, Osamu Tezuka has become a legendary institution in the world of manga and cartoons. Titles like Astro Boy, Princess Knight, Kimba the White Lion, Black Jack, Phoenix, Buddha, Dororo, Adolf, and many others have earned him the title "God of Manga." Thanks to the collaboration between Lo Scarabeo and Tezuka Productions, the official artworks of these masterpieces can now come back to life as the Arcana of this unique Tarot deck: Tezuka Tarot. In this product, each card displays an excerpt from one of the most iconic works.

The Japanese term ukiyo - the "floating world" - came to prominence in the 17th century to describe the pleasure-seeking culture of urban lifestyle in cities like Edo, Kyoto, and Osaka. The shift from the strong, heavenly focus of previous eras to a more materialistic attitude toward present delights gave birth to a thriving art movement depicting earthly subjects like geishas, kabuki actors and sumo wrestlers, often using paintings and woodblock prints, and emphasizing themes of transience, impermanence, and the ephemeral. Ukiyo Tarot recalls these fascinating concepts and combines them with a modern anime-like style to bring the subtle beauty of the floating world into the new millennium.

Girl Power Tarot is a celebration of women throughout history: every Arcanum in this deck presents a remarkable female figure who helped shape the world as we know it today-scientists, astronauts, politicians, athletes, and many, many more. Mary Shelley, Bessie Smith, Jane Addams, Valentina Tereskova, and Wu Zetian are only a few of the important names included in this deck, and all are put in relation to the Arcana that best represent the qualities that made them great in their respective fields. The unique style of Paola Vecchi''s illustrations combines with the texts by feminist writer Sara Marzullo to create the definitive feminine Tarot, a true and empowering tribute to womanhood.

Many things can be hidden behind a simple grin: joy, amusement, malice-even madness. No other human expression bears so great a variety, and no other character such power and charisma as the joker. The story of this legendary archetype spans millennia, embracing figures like the Dionysian characters of Ancient Greek tragedies, the jesters of Medieval courts, and even modern comedians, all related by the capacity to mock the powerful and disrupt commonly accepted truths. In this new Premium deck, the figure of the joker emerges from the black shadow of Corrado Roi''s deep inks to shake up all certainties. Each Arcanum shows one of the joker''s 78 faces to reveal a side of his rich and multifaceted persona.

Whispers of Time Tarot evokes the mystery and enchantment of long-gone ages, transporting you back to a realm where magic and mysticism were of the utmost importance. With this deck, you can tap into the ancient wisdom of the universe, unlocking the secrets of the past and the opportunities of the present. Sonya Kulynyak''s art is reminiscent of medieval miniatures and oil painting portraits from the Renaissance and early modern era, both processed with digital tools and techniques to achieve the effect of an oneiric realm, suspended in time and space. Each card is imbued with powerful symbols and archetypes that awaken your intuition and guide you along a path of self-discovery. These tarot cards have gilded edges
