While it’s being touted as a World Tour, some fans have expressed frustration over the announced locations. Most of them are in Asia and one, Los Angeles, is in the United States. The lack of events in Europe have left a bad taste in some competitors’ mouths.

Bandai is hoping to “share the emotions the cards bring forth and connect people around the world” with World Tour.
