Where it came from
Thundering Raiju was introduced in the 2022 Magic: The Gathering set Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty. The set served as a thematic return to the fan-favorite Kamigawa plane, reimagined through a cyberpunk lens that blended traditional Japanese aesthetics with futuristic, neon-drenched technology. This card represents a modernized take on the mythological creature known as a raiju, a lightning beast associated with thunderstorms in Japanese folklore.
The card was illustrated by artist Ilse Gort, who sought to capture the kinetic energy and explosive speed characteristic of the creature. Within the game's mechanics, Thundering Raiju quickly gained a reputation for its aggressive potential in red-aligned decks. It was well received by the player base for its efficiency and synergy with the set's modification-focused mechanics, ultimately becoming a staple card in the competitive Standard format during its time in rotation.
