A collab art project aiming to create a complete deck of tarot cards each featuring a variety of characters from different BL visual novels. You can also follow us on Twitter for updates.
Minor Arcana now in progress. See here for details.
Due to several people expressing a lack of interest in this collab, as well as the fact there is absolutely no way a full deck will be filled, we have decided to cancel it now, before too many people make significant progress.
We apologise for any inconvenience or disappointment caused.
Please feel free to continue working on your cards as personal project. Though it wonāt all be compiled any more, we still want to ecourage people to create more fanart of their favourite BLVNs.

BL Visual Novel Tarot Card Fan Project - Minor Arcana
RULES UPDATE
To fill in the remaining slots, weāve now decided to expand on the rules a bit.
Participants may now sign up for any non-protagonist BLVN character who has their own ending in the game (so both love interests and bad end-only characters are allowed).
Please check the rules pageĀ if you want any further clarification, and feel free to contact us if you have any questions/concerns regarding this change.
What is it?
Following the success of our project to complete a deck of the Major Arcana tarot cards featuring the protagonists of a different BLVN (the results of which can be viewed here), we have now decided to continue this project to also include the Minor Arcana.
We now aim to make a complete deck of the 56 Minor Arcana, with each card featuring a different non-protagonist BLVN character.
Please check out this blogās about page for more details on how to take part.
We hope you can take part and help us bring this project together!
We have also made a minor change to the rules regarding signing up to a third card:
You may now sign up for a third card once you have 100% completed and submitted one card and can provide at least a sketch of your second, so please contact us if you are interested in this.
As before, participants who originally only signed up for one card may sign up for a second at any time, and just have to fill in the application form a second time if interested.

Itās been less than two days and weāve already almost hit the half-way mark for card sign-ups! Thank you everyone for your interest so far!
Thereās still lots of cards left to be filled, and lots of characters left to fill them (including a few from some quite popular games), so if you havenāt signed up yet, please consider taking part!
I know this sounds a bit crazy-- but if we finish our first two cards for the minor arcana, could we possibly do more if there are still open slots?
It actually mentions this already on the āaboutā page!
If you finish both your cards in time and there are still empty slots available, you are welcome to sign up for a third card. Please message us about this either here or on twitter once you have 100% completed and submitted one card and can provide at least a sketch of your secondĀ if you are interested.
Hello! I have a question whether I am allowed to draw for this collab such characters as: 1) Makoto and Zenya from Sweet Pool (it seems like they don't have full routes...); 2) Mizuki from Dramatical Murder (he comes as a love interest only in the official remake of the game)?
UPDATED 9/08
Any character is now allowed in the collab as long as they have their own endings, even if they are not a love interest with a route.

The artists have all put a lot of thought into the means of representing their chosen character in relation to their card, so weāve provided a brief description of the cardsā intended meanings next to each piece in the above pdf for your appreciation.
