Kanji writing, in PAD.

A few days ago, @pad_37564 started posting his creation of the kanji characters with 16 PAD boards. Here is bond (, kizuna). Gotta love the mono-color boards solve…

Kanji of the year

Every year in Japan there is one kanji chosen to summarize the year, which is known as Kanji of the year (JP: 今年の漢字). This year the kanji is disaster (, sai), for all the natural disasters happened in western and southwestern Japan.

Using 64 boards and careful orb manipulation, @pad_37564 recreated the kanji in PAD!

It doesn’t end here.

Aside from boards, many have used PAD monsters to recreate PAD-related things. Here are some examples from Twitter!

Halloween Karin

Years ago, Upc also made a crazy artwork with PAD icons, of

Halloween Karin. Yes it’s a lot of cards…

Let’s end this post with some music: Matching and cascading along with a current popular Japanese song, Lemon (Artist: Kenshi Yonezu / 米津玄師 | YouTube video).
