EB-06 versus EB-05 comes down to one dated fact: as of November 9, 2026, Extra Booster EAST BLUE [EB-06] is an announced Japanese set releasing on Saturday, January 30, 2027, while Heroines Edition vol.2 [EB-05] was released in Japan on Saturday, October 31, 2026. Both are ¥240 (tax included) Extra Boosters with 6 cards per pack (Japanese edition). Only one of them has a published rarity row, a card list and a sealed box already released (Saturday, October 31, 2026).
This page lines the two sets up on the official Japanese and English product pages — dates, pack price, set size, rarity, theme and the English-edition dates — and then answers the practical question for a collector or small reseller outside Japan: which box makes sense now, and what is still blank for EB-06. Converted store prices use ¥154 = $1.

EB-06 vs EB-05 Side by Side
![EAST BLUE [EB-06] Japanese booster pack — official product image (Bandai)](https://samuraiswordtokyo.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/img_eb_img_item01_73d4174f8ec7-8.webp)
Both products sit on the same official Extra Booster line, and on paper they share their format: the same ¥240 pack price, the same six-card Japanese pack and the same 24-pack box shown on the official box images. The differences are in what has been published, not in the format.
| Official fact (Nov 9, 2026) | Heroines Edition vol.2 [EB-05] | EAST BLUE [EB-06] |

Unlike EB-05, the EB-06 set name carries no “ONE PIECE” prefix, which matters when you search Japanese shops or the official card list later. For a full one-page summary of the new set, see our EB-06 EAST BLUE complete guide, and for the announcement itself, read Extra Booster EAST BLUE EB-06 release date, price and details.
Release Dates: Japan and English Edition
Bandai prints different dates for each region, and the two editions are separate products. Keep the labels attached to every date.
| Set | Japanese edition | English edition | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heroines Edition vol.2 [EB-05] | Saturday, October 31, 2026 | Friday, October 30, 2026 | English edition one day earlier |
| EAST BLUE [EB-06] | Saturday, January 30, 2027 | Friday, January 29, 2027 | English edition one day earlier |
From the EB-05 Japanese release to the EB-06 Japanese release is exactly 13 weeks — 91 days, Saturday to Saturday. That is short for the Extra Booster line. The earlier sets landed on Saturday, January 27, 2024 (EB-01), Saturday, January 25, 2025 (EB-02), Saturday, October 25, 2025 (EB-03) and Saturday, January 31, 2026 (EB-04), so the October-then-January rhythm of EB-03 and EB-04 repeats with EB-05 and EB-06.
The English edition is worth one paragraph because it changes what “release” means for an overseas buyer. EB-05’s English edition came out on Friday, October 30, 2026 at USD $4.99, and EB-06’s English edition is listed for Friday, January 29, 2027 at USD $4.99. The English EB-06 pack image prints “12-Card Booster Pack” — an image print for the English edition only. The Japanese pack holds 6 cards. Our EB-06 Japanese vs English article goes through those differences in detail; this page stays with the Japanese edition.
The English EB-06 page also notes that its cards are tournament legal from the pre-release date in your region, but the pre-release date itself is not published as of November 9, 2026.
Set Size and Rarity: 75+2 Published vs 67+1 Blank
![Heroines Edition vol.2 [EB-05] Japanese booster pack — official product image (Bandai)](https://samuraiswordtokyo.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/img_eb_img_item01_43fa11ca6c15-4.webp)
EB-05’s Japanese page prints “全75種+2種” and a rarity row underneath: Leader 7, Common 29, Rare 21, Super Rare 9, Secret Rare 1, Special Card 8 and DON!! 2. The first six figures add to 75, and the two DON!! cards are the +2. That row is what lets a buyer reason about a box before opening it: seven Leader types compares with three on EB-01 and one on each of EB-02, EB-03 and EB-04, and one Secret Rare type means the top slot is a single card number.
EB-06’s page prints “全67種+1種” — 67+1 types — and stops there. The official page lists no rarity row yet, so every “EB-06 pull rate” or “EB-06 SEC list” you see online is unofficial. The official card list has no EB-06 entry as of November 9, 2026, either. Our EB-06 pull rates: what is confirmed article is the page to bookmark for that question.
One official comparison is fair to make: EB-04 EGGHEAD CRISIS also printed 67+1 types. Its row read Special Card 6, Leader 1, Secret Rare 1, Super Rare 9, Rare 21, Common 29 and DON!! 1. A matching total does not mean a matching row, and EB-04’s breakdown says nothing official about EB-06. Our EB-06 set size 67+1 explained article sets the totals of all six Extra Boosters next to each other.
| Rarity line | EB-05 (official) | EB-06 (official) |
|---|---|---|
| Leader | 7 | Not published |
| Common | 29 | Not published |
| Rare | 21 | Not published |
| Super Rare | 9 | Not published |
| Secret Rare | 1 | Not published |
| Special Card | 8 | Not published |
| DON!! | 2 | Not published |
| Total printed | 75+2 types | 67+1 types |
For the full EB-05 breakdown and how the 75 adds up, see our EB-05 set size and official rarity breakdown. The individual EB-05 cards sit on our EB-05 card list, so this article does not repeat them.
Themes: Heroines vol.2 vs East Blue
The two sets are built around different ideas, and the official copy says so plainly.
EB-05. The Japanese page calls it the second Extra Booster with the heroines in the leading role. It introduces a new Leader, Nico Robin (EB05-010), includes SP cards, and adds a parallel drawn by Kentaro Yabuki, the creator of To LOVE-Ru. It continues EB-03 ONE PIECE Heroines Edition (Saturday, October 25, 2025), whose new Leader was Nefeltari Vivi. Our EB-05 vs EB-03 card-by-card comparison covers the two heroine volumes against each other.
EB-06. The Japanese page describes the sixth Extra Booster as themed on 「東の海」, the East Blue, and invites players to strengthen a range of decks with characters from the sea where the adventure began. The English page adds “Featuring many beloved characters from the early days!” No individual character is named on any official page as of November 9, 2026. The official pack art shows Luffy in front; that is the full extent of what the images say.
![EAST BLUE [EB-06] Japanese booster box — official product image (Bandai)](https://samuraiswordtokyo.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/img_eb_img_item02_a640ce0aaaa7-6.webp)
Our reading: EB-06 looks like a return to the nostalgia line that EB-01 Memorial Collection and EB-02 Anime 25th collection started, and the second arc-themed Extra Booster after EB-04’s Egghead set. That is our interpretation of the official theme copy, not a Bandai statement. EB-05, by contrast, is a character-category set built around heroines, so the two boxes appeal to different collectors, even though the two sets share the same ¥240 per-pack MSRP.
| Set | Official theme (paraphrased) | New Leader named on the page |
|---|---|---|
| EB-01 Memorial Collection | First Extra Booster; cards that strengthen existing decks | 3 new multicolour Leaders |
| EB-02 Anime 25th collection | Anime 25th anniversary; new illustrations by the TV anime’s animators | Monkey.D.Luffy |
| EB-03 ONE PIECE Heroines Edition | Heroines in the leading role | Nefeltari Vivi |
| EB-04 EGGHEAD CRISIS | Egghead arc | Jewelry Bonney |
| EB-05 Heroines Edition vol.2 | Heroines, second volume | Nico Robin (EB05-010) |
| EB-06 EAST BLUE | The East Blue; many beloved characters from the early days | Not published |
Our EB-01 to EB-05 comparison has the full spec of every earlier Extra Booster.
East Blue Heroines Already Inside EB-05
If the pull of EB-06 for you is the East Blue cast, EB-05 already prints several East Blue women on the official card list as of November 9, 2026. These are released cards, numbered and rarity-coded by Bandai:
| Card number | Character | Rarity | Colour | East Blue arc (editorial orientation) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EB05-061 | ナミ (Nami) | SEC | Red | Arlong Park |
| EB05-055 | ナミ (Nami) | SR | Yellow | Arlong Park |
| EB05-021 | アルビダ (Alvida) | SR | Blue | Romance Dawn |
| EB05-057 | ノジコ (Nojiko) | R | Yellow | Arlong Park |
| EB05-058 | ベルメール (Bell-mère) | C | Yellow | Arlong Park |
| EB05-015 | たしぎ (Tashigi) | C | Green | Loguetown |
EB05-061 Nami is the set’s one Secret Rare type, and EB05-055 and EB05-021 carry additional parallel printings on the official list. The arc labels in the last column are reader orientation, not card-game facts.
Character guides go deeper: Nami cards in EB-05, Alvida in EB-05 and Nojiko in EB-05. For the wider East Blue cast across every set, see the East Blue saga collector guide. None of this says anything about which characters EB-06 will print — that list is not published.
How EB-05 Launched in Japan
EB-05’s official launch is the most recent Extra Booster record, so it is the useful reference for what a Japanese release looks like. The dated milestones, all from official pages:
- A Premium Bandai lottery sale ran October 30 – November 5, 2026.
- On October 30, 2026, the official site published EB-05’s parallel cards, one day before release.
- Japanese release on Saturday, October 31, 2026.
- A release event at official shops from October 31 to November 15, 2026, with a junior version from November 7 to November 15.
- Heroines CUP -3on3- from November 7 to November 29, 2026.
For EB-06, the official site shows none of these as of November 9, 2026: no release event, no tournament, no promo and no lottery sale is announced. The announcement itself went up on the official site on November 6, 2026, alongside OP-19 and PEB-01. That is the pattern of the previous set, not a prediction for the next one. Our EB-06 road to release article tracks the official milestones if and when they appear, and the EB-05 complete guide covers the released set in full.
The Released Set Currently Listed: EB-05
The buying question is simpler than the spec sheet. EB-05 is a released Japanese box with a published rarity row and a card list you can check before you open it. EB-06 is a product page with a date, a price per pack and a type count.
The EB-05 Heroines Edition vol.2 Japanese booster box is currently listed at ¥13,200 (~$86). A Damaged Box version — sealed packs, outer box damage; see our condition guide — is currently listed at ¥12,670 (~$82).
For EB-06 we have no listing and no price. Sourcing requests go through Quick Order. Because Bandai publishes no box price for EB-06, any EB-06 box price you see elsewhere is that seller’s own figure.
![Heroines Edition vol.2 [EB-05] Japanese booster box — official product image (Bandai)](https://samuraiswordtokyo.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/img_eb_img_item02_4bf1d9910483-4.webp)
If you are deciding between boxes in a wider window, earlier Extra Boosters are also currently listed: the EB-04 EGGHEAD CRISIS Box option is currently listed at ¥14,515 (~$94) (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order) and the EB-03 Heroines Edition Box option at ¥12,040 (~$78) (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order). EB-04 is the 67+1 set with a published row; EB-03 is the first heroine volume.
Which One to Buy, by Goal
| If you want… | Relevant official fact | Our pick |
|---|---|---|
| A box already released | EB-05 released October 31, 2026; EB-06 releases January 30, 2027 | EB-05 box |
| To know the rarity mix before buying | EB-05 row published; EB-06 row not published | EB-05 box |
| Many Leader types in one set | EB-05 prints 7 Leader types | EB-05 box |
| East Blue heroines (Nami, Alvida, Nojiko, Bell-mère) | Printed in EB-05 on the official card list | EB-05 box |
| Early-days, East Blue-themed cards | EB-06 theme copy; no card list yet | Wait for the EB-06 card list; sourcing requests through Quick Order |
| A 67+1 Extra Booster with a known row | EB-04 printed 67+1 with its own row | EB-04 box |
| A lower-priced way into EB-05 sealed packs | Damaged Box = sealed packs, outer box damage | EB-05 Damaged Box |
Our take: the two sets are not really competing. EB-05 is a known, released heroine set; EB-06 is a different theme that is still a blank sheet apart from its date, price and type count. A buyer who wants both is buying EB-05 now and reading the EB-06 page again if and when it changes.
If your window runs to February 2027, the main boosters matter too: OP-18 The Dominance Of God releases in Japan on Saturday, November 21, 2026, and OP-19 COME IN, WORLD on Saturday, February 27, 2027. Our EB-06 vs OP-18 vs OP-19 comparison covers that three-way choice.
