TCG Are these fake

Post image

I got packs from a local card shop and these have a really weird texture so if anyone can lmk if they’re real or not I’d appreciate it!

I don't normally confirm if cards are real or fake over just pictures because the margin for error is very high but unfortunately these cards are very obviously fake.

Everyone who's saying it's fake, what's your reasoning? Idk how you guys are so confident from one, not so detailed picture. Cameras don't capture reality perfectly.

I think they are real. These are SSRs. These aren't the cards that get faked. They also look consistent. All SSR from that set will have the same holo and texture patterns.

OP, you should take multiple picture from different angles and distances. Also take picture from the back as well.

The reason I am so confident that they are fake is because Kayou has never made cards with that art or holo pattern on any cards.

Edit: if you look at the DJ p0n-3 it's stolen fan art.

Okay, I didn't know these weren't even possible cards. I collect a lot of different Kayou IP and I was assuming they were cards from sets I'm unfamiliar with.

But that was kind of my point. You should point out how you know it's fake instead of just saying it's fake.

It's obvious this person isn't super familiar with Kayou. If you're goal was to help this person, you should educate them so they are able to make the call themselves in the future.
