Today's card is...
Nananananananananananananananana....
FATMAN!!!!!
Just kidding. Today's card is Choji, the guy who ate too much.

Choji Akamichi
0 Cost
2/0 healthy
0/0 injured

[Chubby]
When this ninja is sent out to attack, give it +1/0 during the turn.

So it's pretty much a 3/0 healthy, 0/0 injured. In this game, attack pumps aren't too important, so just giving it +1 attack ain't so great. Not too much to say.

-Possible 3/0

The Bad

-Effect not Valid

From a card I hate to a card I like, here's Chubby Choji, the best turn 0 Aggro Earth has. With this ninja, you have some who can actually stand up to a non-AOC Sasuke while attacking, which is good enough. Second, it's Earth, giving the element something to play other than a Shikamaru. Even better, a Choji into a Shikamaru(Smarty Pants) could net you two rewards early game, just like an AOC/Temari team. This is one of the best early game cards in the game, and an absolute staple for Earth Aggro decks. Playing this along with AOC guarentees that if you hit your turn 0 drop that you'll have something that can actually fight.

Constructed-4/5
Limited-5/5

Heya all Pojo fans. Guess most of our reviews are late this week, being the Christmas season and all, but we're all tryin out best to get organized. Well, today's card is an oldie, but still a goodie:
 
Choji Akimichi-Common Earth Ninja; Costs: 0-0; 2/0, 0/0; Leaf/Genin/Male
[Chubby] When this Ninja is sent out to Attack, it gets +1/+0 during the turn.
 
Being an Earth Ninja with the ability to become stronger is a great effect, but Choji's effect only kick in when he's Attacking, so that means if be becomes a blocker, the effect is null. Still, a 3/0 on turn 0 isn't that bad, and it's pretty decent, in it's own right I'd guess. There are two new Choji versions, and this one is number 2 out of all three of them, following behind the Ino-Shika-Cho formation team, from the Coils of the Snake set.
 
Constructed: 3/5 (Still decent, oddly enough)
Limited: 2/5 (Other decent Ninjas at turn 0)
