FB04 -ULTRA LIMIT- is the fourth Fusion World booster, and by the numbers it’s the tightest set in the line’s first year — 133 card types packed into a single release, with 25 alternate-art cards — more than FB02 (19) or FB03 (20). It also carries a quiet piece of set history: one of its five Leaders was reprinted about seven months later in MANGA BOOSTER 01, the Manga Booster line’s debut product with Akira Toriyama-illustrated alt-arts.
This guide breaks down FB04’s full card list by rarity, explains what makes its alt-art count stand out, and covers where it sits in the Fusion World release timeline. We ship sealed Japanese FB04 booster boxes out of Tokyo, so if you’re building toward a specific card or just want the set in hand, the details below cover what’s actually in the box.
FB04 -ULTRA LIMIT- shipped in Japan on November 8, 2024 (English: November 15, 2024) with 133 total card types across 5 Leaders, 45 Commons, 36 Uncommons, 30 Rares, 12 Super Rares, 2 Secret Rares, and 3 Special Reprints — plus 25 alt-art cards, the highest count of the first four Fusion World boosters.

What Is FB04 -ULTRA LIMIT-?

FB04 -ULTRA LIMIT- (Japanese name: ブースターパック 限界を超えし者) is the fourth mainline booster in the Dragon Ball Super Card Game: Fusion World line, following FB01 -AWAKENED PULSE-, FB02 -BLAZING AURA-, and FB03 -RAGING ROAR-. It released in Japan on November 8, 2024, with the English-language version following on November 15, 2024 and a pre-release window that opened the same day as the Japanese launch, November 8.
Per the official English product page, each FB04 pack includes 12 cards and 1 promotion code for the digital version. The underlying game is built around Leader Cards that flip mid-battle to open up new attacks — Bandai’s own description calls it “an action-packed card game where you can turn the tables in an instant by awakening your Leader Card.” FB04’s five new Leaders slot straight into that system, giving deck builders five fresh ways to trigger that swing.
FB04 Card List by Rarity
FB04 totals 133 card types, split across seven rarity tiers:
| Rarity | Card Count |
|---|---|
| Leader | 5 |
| Common | 45 |
| Uncommon | 36 |
| Rare | 30 |
| Super Rare | 12 |
| Secret Rare | 2 |
| Special Reprints | 3 |
| Total | 133 |
The five new Leader cards anchor the set’s deck-building options, and the three Special Reprints bring earlier cards back into circulation — the same mechanic FB02 (4 reprints) and FB03 (3 reprints) used before it.
The Leader count is also worth noting on its own. FB02 launched with 4 new Leaders, while FB03 and FB04 both stepped up to 5 — a count every later booster with a published breakdown (through FB08) kept. For anyone building a collection around Leader variety rather than chasing a single alt-art, FB04’s five-Leader lineup puts it on the higher end for its era of the set.
The 25 Alt-Art Cards
FB04’s official product page describes the set as including “many superb alternative-specification cards with different illustrations and processing,” and the number backs that up: 25 alt-art cards in total — more than FB01 (23), FB02 (19), or FB03 (20). Of the first four Fusion World boosters, FB04 has the deepest alternate-art lineup.
The set doesn’t publish pull rates for those alt-arts, so we won’t guess at odds here — the official figure is the card count itself, and that’s what collectors have to go on when comparing FB04 against the boosters around it.
What’s notable is that FB04 hits its high alt-art count with a smaller overall card pool than FB02 or FB03 (133 types versus 144 and 143). Roughly one in five cards in the set carries an alternate treatment, a higher density than either of the two boosters before it.
Alt-art counts across the first four Fusion World boosters: FB01 — 23. FB02 — 19. FB03 — 20. FB04 — 25. FB04 leads the group.
Pack Configuration
Each FB04 pack contains 12 cards plus 1 promotion code for the digital version, matching the standard Fusion World English-market pack format. Packs-per-box has not been stated on any official product page for FB04, so we won’t publish a figure here — if you need a confirmed packs-per-box count before ordering, ask when you request a quote.
One thing worth flagging for anyone comparing Japanese and English product: Bandai’s own FB01 listing shows a JP pack running 6 cards plus a digital serial code, versus 12 cards for the EN pack of the same set. Bandai hasn’t published a set-specific JP pack breakdown for FB04, so treat any JP-vs-EN pack count for this particular set as unconfirmed until you see it on the box itself.
The SB01 Manga Booster Connection
FB04 has a direct link to one of the most distinctive later releases in the line. MANGA BOOSTER 01 (SB01), which released in Japan on June 28, 2025 — roughly seven months after FB04 — introduced Akira Toriyama-illustrated alt-art cards to Fusion World and included “3 new Leader Cards and 2 reprinted Leader Cards.” One of those two reprinted Leaders comes from FB04 -ULTRA LIMIT- (the other from FB06 -RIVALS CLASH-). SB01 also introduced energy markers to the line for the first time — a total of 21 original marker designs exclusive to that product, on top of its 110-card base set.
SB01 is where an FB04 Leader appears in manga-illustration alt-art form. If you’re chasing the manga-art version of an FB04 Leader, that’s the product to look at. Our Manga Booster guide covers SB01 and SB02 in full, including the reprinted Leaders from both.
Where FB04 Fits in the Fusion World Timeline
FB04 sits fourth in the release order, between FB03 -RAGING ROAR- (August 2024) and FB05 -NEW ADVENTURE- (February 2025). It followed the roughly three-month release cadence Fusion World had kept since FB01 in February 2024 — FB02 in May, FB03 in August, then FB04 in November, all landing about three months apart. For the complete release order across every Fusion World booster, see our Fusion World sets in order guide.
We’ve covered FB04’s sibling boosters in the same depth. If you’re comparing card lists and alt-art counts across the line, our companion guides walk through FB02 -BLAZING AURA-, FB03 -RAGING ROAR-, and FB08 -SAIYAN’s PRIDE- the same way this one covers FB04. For a broader look at Japanese booster box structure across the whole line, our Fusion World Japanese booster box guide is the hub page to start from.
