General Information
Chrono Cross
Bandai marketed a Chrono Cross card game in tandem with the game's release. It features 6 prism cards, with 60 cards total (including the prisms). They were probably sold from Carddas vending machines run by Bandai. Carddas machines dispense trading cards based on various anime and video games. (More information at Wikipedia.) Each card is presented below. To download the entire set...

Thanks to rin-uzuki of Ramsus-kun scanlations for the translations!
This is a very quick, rough translation. It’s likely error-ridden and inconsistent and needs to be tweaked by someone with an actual understanding of the card game. I’m available to answer translation questions to the best of my ability here or at RinUzuki@gmail.com
In conjunction with the previously translated card game rules, I translated [一番手] as “first card position”/“first-position card”/”card in first position”.
particularly dubious or questionable translations have been underlined
Japanese often doesn’t clearly distinguish between
a) singular vs plural nouns, or
b) the subject of the action
So while [自分のx] = “your x (deck, card, etc.)” and [相手のx] = “your opponent’s x (deck, card, etc)”, when these phrases are absent, it can be ambiguous just whose card is being affected.
This is assuming more than two people can play the game or that there could be multiples of certain cards in play. As above, when a card affects another - like Kid adding 100 to a Serge card - it’s not clear if Kid adds 100 to one Serge card or all Serge cards.
- for the summon cards, I’m drawing a blank on the definition of [みの切り札]. [切り札] = “trump card”, but what that [み] means is unclear to me. As of 06/06/2015, I’ve translated the rule as such below, but this should be revised:
★このカードは特殊ルールのみの切り札カードです。
山札に入れられるのは一枚だけ。使用後は山札に戻せません。
This card trumps other card’s special rules.
So, please keep in mind that the rules laid out here are a rough/possibly incorrect approximation of the original and would have to be combed through more finely to actually fully make sense in the context of the game. I would recommend reviewing these for errors at least a couple times before doing the work of putting them into the card templates.
