Kinda adds new meaning to selling your soul (for easy consumer credit). Laughing Although a Madoka MasterCard sounds cool, imagine the looks you'd get from a retailer every time you used it.

Agree. I wonder if they'll have one with Bei-san's face all over it? Laughing

Looks of envy, probably.

Never mind all that ethical and artistic crap. Can we transfer balances at 0% APR for at least 12 months? Inquiring credit-floaters need to know.

To keep this on-topic, "I accrued the debt by purchasing Anime DVDs and BluRays."

That should do it.

No retailer would care. As long as it has the MasterCard logo on it, they quickly swipe it and go. VISA did the same thing with Love Plus as well. Companies are always making custom cards all the time. IIRC there was an Idolmaster series of MasterCards available at one time as well.

This is what it looks like btw

That's really cool, you notice the little soul eggs in the upper left? Very Happy

I suppose if anyone here in North America wanted something like that badly enough, you could do one of those custom credits cards from Capital One or whoever it was where you could send a graphic or photo to them and they would slap it on the card for you.

"Members to get film tickets, exclusive trading cards if they make a contract"

Okay this calls for a MasterCard Commercial with Madoka footage.

There are somethings contracts can't buy, for everything else there's MasterCard.

I'd get one. Too bad they'll never be available to the west.

I doubt even America will think you're a pedophile if you have this card.

I wear anime shirts that have lolis on them (which one could say is even "worse" than having this card) to school and no one bats an eye.

They will if they're my age. school kids only have their parents and their peers to worry about what they think about them. Adults have the law authorities. Wink
