Pokémon that look like they're bursting out of the card.

Built on motion

Nagasawa focuses on movement — tilting Pokémon and framing them so they seem to push out of the image. The result feels kinetic, like a freeze-frame from a fight.

A comic-book hand

His style ranges from solid black outlines and extreme shadow — very comic-book — to softer colour shading. That range makes his pages feel punchy and graphic.

Build a binder page

Nagasawa's work is all energy — group his most dynamic cards for a page that feels like action panels from a comic.

Collector tip

His style varies a lot card to card, so look for the bold-outline, high-shadow ones to get his most recognisable comic-book look.
