And the week takes a turn for the worse with Izanami,
a Level 4 Fairy monster, who happens to be a Spirit
of the Water attribute with 1100 attack (craptacular)
and 1800 defense (almost good).
This card has all the Spirit text you have seen and
heard before, so we will move on to additional
effect(s). When this card is Normal Summoned or
flipped face-up, you can discard one Spirit monster
from your Hand to add one Spirit monster from your
Graveyard to your Hand.
I don't even like this card in a Spirit Deck, sorry
folks.
Ratings:
1/5 both formats, maybe a bit harsh, but I think
it's pretty justified.
Art: 4/5 As I've said, most Spirit cards have good
artwork.

Hmm, if you mix the letters around then it says "I'm
a N..." woah! Anyway this card would have been
broken like 3 years ago when Tsukuyomi and Yata were
around. As of now, you can only really use her with
the new Spirits (with the exception of Asura Priest)
and that is just not really worth building a deck
upon. I want to build a Spirit deck real bad, but
they need some more solid support first.
Asura Priest and that Thunder Spirit that has 2000
ATK just aren't enough to build a deck around. You
could so some cure things with Otohime and Hino-Kagu-Tsuchi,
but that is about all.

Today’s card up for review is Izanami. How many
years has it been since we last got Spirit support?
Nice! The effect of this guy is actually pretty
cool. You summon him and it does a Reinforcement of
The Army for Spirits for a card pitch. Only downside
is that there isn’t really any heavy hitters that
are spirits. If you can mix and match some Spirits
and stuff to maintain board prescense, it may work
out! As of now, I havent found many uses for it
right now. If support continues to be released, who
knows?

Just an FYI, I'm
probably spelling izanami wrong every time. With
that being said, the whole 'spirit' archetype will
never get off the ground because it's soooo sloooow.
Ah well, maybe next time UDE.

Izanami is the Monster Reincarnation for spirit
monsters. Spirit monsters usually get returned to
the hand and not destroyed by battle or anything. If
anything does happen, the opponent would play
Bottomless Trap Hole in most cases. We can run three
of any Spirit monster except the bird. Anybody
playing spirits are usually running 2 or 3 copies of
any good spirits, but there is not need to get them
back if you have other copies.
Imanzai doesn't do much battle wise because of low
attack. Her defense doesn't really matter since
there are more effects going on than battling. Dark
Armed Dragon, Judgment Dragon and any Synchro
monster run over this card. Izanami should only be
used for spirit decks for casual play.
