Note: This is a play on (pet cat). I’m pretty sure this is referencing “Cats land on their feet” as it’s “Turning/Revolving Cat” literally.

ROTA-JP044 Shikou no Gyoku Rubisapphirus (Rubisapphirus the Jewel of Maximum Mohs)

● WATER: Once per opponent’s turn (Quick Effect): You can target 1 card you control; negate any card or effect your opponent activates this turn that targets that card.
(2) If this card would be destroyed, you can detach 1 material from it instead.
Note: Shikou here is a play on, i..e. supreme/supremacy, but replaces the second part with ‘steel’, i.e. ‘this stuff is really tough’, and the Mohs scale is the measurement of toughness in rocks and minerals.
Sapphirus is Latin for Sapphire.

Note: This is the only card with Shukudai in this spelling so it’s the only Trap of itself that can be searched so far.
Note: This card is both ‘Fireworks Celebration’ but also more critically is referencing (Summer Homework), as Japan loads students with schoolwork to complete through August.
