If it just provided two cards (similar to Bequeathal), this card would be such an amazing opening choice for Spirit decks.
Like this it's just recycling in case you don't need it anymore, sigh...

Very underrated. This actually has its uses... While not amazing, it's surely not a bad card.
3.5/5

Useful early in the game, and replaces it self when it becomes obsolete, but it so should have flying.............

This card needs flying... Very badly... Then it would be very good....
Wow... How did I not realize that this is totally baby Emrakul?

Hahahaha, 100% baby emrakul.

keeping in mind a major mechanic of this block was soulshift, this card is not bad.

While it may just be a pretty underwhelming one drop, in the late game if you manage to get Shirei, Shizo's Caretaker out (assuming doing a BU deck) it can be pretty entertaining, especially with multiples out. It saved me more than once to be honest.

drawing one card is okay, but it need a trigger - not so flexible chump blocker

Oh, okay, that's fair. I was trying to figure out why someone would ever play this card. But as mentioned before, he turns Soulshift into card draw.

Hehehe, I came here to point out it's a baby Emrakul, only to find out everyone else had already seen it. So I'll just say it's kind of cute instead.

And it doesn't have flying why, exactly? It seems to be able to levitate in the picture.

I don't know much about Kamigawa, so I can't say how useful this would have been back then, but nowadays I'd rather just pay one more mana for the ability to do it on demand. And there's probably a cheaper card that allows you to do this that I'm too lazy to go look up.

I see the 'baby Emmy' comments but none that note this actually was the inspiration for it.
Mark Tedin painted both cards people...

1/1 for Blue is underwhelming, but this guy is not only in a more supported tribe than Fugitive Wizard, but basically acts as a pre-paid cycling if used correctly.

He's not a 2/5 card. He's...3/5. Functional.

Think of it as a bonus trigger for all your "Whenever you play a Spirit or Arcane spell" triggers. It plops down and triggers them once, then recycles itself afterwards. And you can soulshift into it if you reach soulshift 1.

The Kami weren't particularly nice, were they?
