A virtual field built by a certain musician.
There, whatever you imagine takes shape.
Players fight by turning their skills into "memories." A shrine under the full moon, a library on a frozen lake, a slope streaked with purple lightning. What was only in their minds takes form and becomes power.
And the legendary memories that appear in the virtual field spur the players on, carried by the music.
Players record the skills and memories they have built up in their bodies as "Memories." In a match, they play them one card at a time against their opponent.
The sport's official name is Memory Cadenza. It's a mouthful, so everyone just calls it "the Sport." The national tournament is broadcast, and there's a pro league too.
Rivals you face in the story and even pro players can join you, and you can build decks for them. There are two pro teams: Saikan and Tenkyu.
36 of them are shown here, and there are more.
A training school for the sport that even working adults can join. Five players of every age and background aim for the nationals.

Don't hold back, okay? ...Because I'm going to win anyway.
Cheerful and caring. Once she draws her sword, she turns cool and calm, like a different person.
How to Play
Decks have 16 cards. Each round you draw 4, and both players play 1 at the same time. First to take two points wins.
Mind games
The only thing hidden is which card they'll play. Read "they're going to play this one" and outsmart them. Your opponent is thinking the same thing.
Rock-paper-scissors
Echo 
Rhythm 
Tonality Echo beats Rhythm, Rhythm beats Tonality, and Tonality beats Echo. Only the type decides who wins, so every card has a way to win.
Resonance
Up to 3 can build up, and losing breaks 1 of them. The closer you are to a full set, the scarier the next clash gets.
Concerto
Your 3 stored cards plus the winning card: all 4 activate in order. Even if you're behind on HP, this one moment can turn the tide.
Fortissimo and Cadenza
A Fortissimo card lets you choose Echo, Rhythm or Tonality as you play it, so your opponent can't know until it's out. Cadenza absorbs your stored cards and turns them into a single strike. Fire four cards in a row, or pour it all into one? The choice is yours.
Hand
Draw 4 from your deck and play 1. The 3 you didn't play also go to the discard pile, and the next round starts with a fresh 4. When your deck runs low, the discard pile is shuffled back in.
Tie
Both played cards go into Resonance, along with the top card of each deck. Nobody wins, but Resonance fills up fast.
Swell
A tie while you have 3 cards in Resonance raises your "Swell" by one level (up to 2). Your next Concerto gets stronger to match.
Losing
The loser has one card in their Resonance broken. Both Resonances are face up, and the winner chooses which card to break.
Winning
Reduce your opponent's HP to 0 to take a point. The first player to take two points wins. After each point, HP, decks and Resonance reset.
Every player has an ability that can change the flow of a match. Here's how the two in the trial match fight. You can also tap their portraits during the match to check.
Yuu
When she loses while behind on HP percentage, she reclaims the card she played into her Resonance (up to 3). Reclaimed cards don't break when she loses, and their guard effects get stronger.
Himi Rinne
Each round, one card in her hand glows. Win with the glowing card and her damage rises sharply. In the round after a loss, two cards glow.
The best way to learn the mind games is to play.

Yuu vs Himi Rinne / CPU
Echo Rhythm Tonality For the first 4 rounds, Coach Takuto guides you step by step. No sign-up needed.
The trial match is in Japanese only.
The cards are called "Memories," and almost no two share the same art. Over 1,200 can go into any character's deck, and over 1,000 can only be used by one character.
Echo beats Rhythm, Rhythm beats Tonality, Tonality beats Echo. Both hands are visible; the only unknown is which card gets played.
Even with the same character, decks can aim for different things. Here are two examples.
Yuu's deck
When you're behind on HP, the cards you lose with come back into Resonance. Returned cards don't break, and their guard effects get stronger.
If even one returned card is there, this card's damage rises sharply.
Played as a Cadenza, it absorbs every stored card and fires. If your HP is low, it hits even harder.
A match you were losing flips with the very last card.
Niiharu Himari's deck
Win by playing it from your hand, and the top card of your deck activates too.
If this is the card that flips, it boosts your next attack and flips one more.
If this comes next, the boost and its bonus for coming from the deck stack up. It ignores the opponent's guard, too.
A single win sends card after card flipping over.
Cards shown are still in development. Effects may change.
How you build your deck, and how much a loss costs, differ by mode.
Planned
This game is made for playing against people.
Ranked matches are on the way, with a separate rating for each character. The more you play a character, the more that number grows. Ranking rewards based on your placement are planned, too.
Planned feature in development. Details may change.
Build on the spot. Fight on the spot.
Choose 1 player out of 3, then pick 1 card out of 3, sixteen times. Win 5 matches with that deck to finish the run; lose 2 and it's over. Cards you don't own show up too, so you might win with a deck you'd never normally build.

The Creator and AI
Memory Cadenza distills the many card games its creator has played into a single game. The creator has made the trip to big tournament venues, too.
So when making a new deck, the first thing decided isn't numbers, but "what play makes this deck fun when it lands." A satisfying sequence the creator deliberately builds in: that's each character's Designer's Combo.
AI gives it shape. The creator hands over the goal, and AI writes it up as card effects, builds it into the game, and runs automated matches again and again. The card text, art, voices and code are all made together with AI. The creator reviews the results and has it remade if it misses the mark.
Play it the round after a loss, and your next 2 attacks rise sharply.
Right after an attack boost, it deals even more damage. Each time it's played, the top card of your deck goes to the discard pile.
Finish with a Fortissimo. Fire it as a Cadenza to absorb all your Resonance cards at once. If your HP is low, it climbs even higher.
