Kawaii Karuta Instruction

【How to play Karuta】

 

1. Spread all the torifuda face up on a flat surface between the players.

2. The "reader" randomly draws a yomifuda from the deck and reads it aloud.

3. Players race each other to determine which torifuda corresponds to the yomifuda clue and then to touch/grab/claim the correct card first.

4. Repeat steps two and three until no cards remain.

5. Whichever player has the most cards wins!
