the new Popipa cards are all absolutely stunning trained but can we talk about the untrained Kasumi in particular

something about the lighting in this card is just gorgeous to me. it's a bit darker than usual (duh) but it's kinda different from the other night-scenery cards as well ... the hard, dark shadows add to it so much and make the whole art feel very ... solid? not the "eh it's good" kinda solid but rather the "not quite as soft" kinda solid. I usually love the softer feel of the cards but something about this is just?? special idk. and the night sky background makes them pop out so much without creating a grating contrast ... who drew this please give them a raise
