Exhibition Details

Pickles (皮克勒斯) is a Mineral Arcanist in Reverse: 1999. He was introduced through The Theft of the Rimet Cup event alongside Diggers and Melania in Version 1.1.

Pickles is melancholy but wise.
"I might be a reed that can think." After this idea emerged, an emotion known as loneliness surrounds him in isolated places and at moments of sunset.^[1]
