EB-05 Buying Guide: Which Japanese Cards and Box to Choose

To choose in EB-05 (EB05), the Japanese One Piece Heroines Edition vol.2 extra booster, start with your goal: play the new Nico Robin Leader EB05-010, collect the Nami cards EB05-055 and EB05-061, or follow one heroine. Then pick the regular box or the damaged box.

Updated November 9, 2026

What are the key facts about EB-05 (EB05)?

EB-05 is the second Heroines Edition extra booster for the ONE PIECE CARD GAME, and the Japanese edition came out on October 31, 2026. The table fixes the exact names and numbers used in the rest of this guide.

Two practical notes follow from the table. The official English page also states that EB-05 is tournament legal after 7 days, and legal from the pre-release date in your region, so the new Leader is a playable card. And the Asia-English product page says an English version is planned, so everything in this guide refers to the Japanese-language cards and the card numbers on the official list.

Which EB-05 card should I choose first?

Choose the card that matches your goal: Nico Robin EB05-010 if you play, Nami EB05-061 or EB05-055 if you collect headline cards, and the Rares of your favorite heroine if you collect by character. The table below turns the official card list into a plan.

If you can only remember three numbers, remember EB05-010, EB05-055 and EB05-061. Our own box page names the same early watch points: Nami EB05-055, the Nico Robin Leader and the eight heroine Special Cards. This guide ranks nothing by price and makes no price forecast, because the official pages give no basis for one. It ranks by purpose, which is the decision you actually have to make.

Should I choose the Nico Robin Leader EB05-010 if I play the game?

Yes. If you play the ONE PIECE CARD GAME, Nico Robin EB05-010 is the card to choose from EB-05, because it is the set’s new Leader. The official pages list it as a Wisdom attribute Leader, and the Japanese page notes that a parallel version exists.

A Leader is the card a deck is built around. The set has seven Leader entries in total. The official card list shows EB05-010 Nico Robin alongside Nefeltari Vivi (EB03-001), Shirahoshi (OP11-022), Nami (OP11-041), Jewelry Bonney (OP13-100), Boa Hancock (OP14-041) and Rebecca (OP15-039). The other six carry numbers from earlier sets, which is why Robin is the Leader that belongs to EB-05 itself.

Robin also gives a character collector a small run to build. EB05-016 is a Super Rare that also appears among the SP cards, and EB05-033 is a Rare. A complete Robin set from this release is therefore Leader EB05-010 with its parallel, Super Rare EB05-016 with its SP version, and Rare EB05-033.

The Vivi entry shows how the list mixes sets. Nefeltari Vivi EB03-001 appears on the EB-05 list under an EB03 number, and we cover it in the Nefeltari Vivi EB03-001 fact sheet. For a card-by-card look at which heroines return from the earlier set, read EB-05 vs EB-03.

Which Nami cards should I look for in EB-05?

Look for Nami EB05-061, the Secret Rare, and Nami EB05-055, the Super Rare illustrated by Kentaro Yabuki. The official list shows one Secret Rare against nine Super Rares, and Nami holds the single Secret Rare slot.

EB05-055 is the card the official pages single out. The Japanese, Asia-English and English product pages all mention the alt-art card EB05-055 illustrated by Kentaro Yabuki, and the English page adds that he is the creator of To Love-Ru. The Japanese page states the special illustration comes in parallel and regular versions. If you want the Yabuki artwork, note the number EB05-055.

EB05-061 is the Secret Rare of the set, and the reveal images below show it. If your aim is to own a Nami from this set, the sensible order is the Secret Rare first and the Yabuki alt-art second. Both are random pulls from sealed packs. The box page says plainly that individual card pulls are not guaranteed, and this guide does not quote pull rates, because none are published on the official pages.

Nami also shows up elsewhere on the list under other set numbers: OP11-041 among the Leader entries and OP01-016 among the SP card entries. Those are separate cards from EB05-055 and EB05-061, so check the number every time you shop.

Which Super Rares and SP cards fit a collection?

Choose the Super Rare of the character you collect, and treat the two Super Rares that double as SP cards, Miss Buckingham Stussy EB05-006 and Nico Robin EB05-016, as the natural next picks. The set has nine Super Rares, and two of them also appear in the SP list.

The nine Super Rares on the official card list are:

• EB05-001 Jewelry Bonney
• EB05-006 Miss Buckingham Stussy
• EB05-014 Shirahoshi
• EB05-016 Nico Robin
• EB05-021 Alvida
• EB05-034 Sugar
• EB05-046 Yamato
• EB05-052 Gloriosa
• EB05-055 Nami

Pick by character. If you collect Yamato, EB05-046 is your Super Rare. If you want a card tied to a Leader on the list, Jewelry Bonney EB05-001 sits next to the Bonney Leader entry OP13-100. Shirahoshi EB05-014 has its own write-up in our Shirahoshi EB05-014 guide. We also have separate guides for Bonney EB-05, Stussy EB05-006, Alvida EB05-021, Sugar EB05-034 and Gloriosa EB05-052.

On SP cards, the product page says the set includes 6 types of SP cards with special designs, while the official card list shows eight SP card entries. The entries are:

Our advice for SP collectors: start with the three SP cards that carry EB05 numbers (Stussy, Robin, Reiju), because they belong to this set. The five SP cards with OP or ST numbers are cards from other sets shown in a special design on this list. Boa Hancock has her own guide, Boa Hancock SP in EB-05, and Reiju has Reiju EB05.

Which heroine Rares suit a character collection?

For a character collection, choose the heroine Rares: Baby 5 EB05-004, Boa Hancock EB05-028, Perona EB05-043 and Vinsmoke Reiju EB05-031 are the heroines the official English page names. They sit one rarity tier below the Super Rares.

The official card list gives these Rare examples: EB05-002 Doll, EB05-004 Baby 5, EB05-018 Rebecca, EB05-028 Boa Hancock, EB05-031 Vinsmoke Reiju, EB05-033 Nico Robin, EB05-043 Perona and EB05-059 Charlotte Pudding!!. It also shows Common examples such as EB05-003 Pasia, EB05-005 Belo Betty, EB05-007 Monet, EB05-015 Tashigi, EB05-041 Koala and EB05-058 Bell-mère.

This route suits a collector who follows one character instead of the headline pulls. The Baby 5 EB05-004 fact sheet covers one of these Rares in detail, and the Nojiko EB-05 guide and Black Maria EB05-037 guide cover more of the cast.

One structural point decides how to buy. The official pages say multiples of one card may appear, and a full set may be difficult to assemble. A Rare you want can arrive twice while a Super Rare you want does not arrive from a given box. So write down your exact target numbers before you buy, and decide whether opening boxes is the right way to reach them.

Should I buy the regular EB-05 box or the damaged box?

Buy the regular box if you want a clean sealed product for keeping or gifting, and buy the damaged box only if cosmetic damage to the outer packaging does not matter to you. Both listings are for one Japanese EB-05 booster box, and neither guarantees any specific card.

The damaged-box page is direct about its terms. It describes dents, creases, scuffs or other cosmetic damage, says the type and extent vary by item, and states that the photos are samples. The first image shows the regular product for identification, and the remaining photos are general examples of outer-box damage on other products. They do not show the item you receive.

Our recommendation is straightforward. If the box is a display or gift piece, take the regular box. If the packs will be opened for the cards, the damaged listing fits, provided you accept the as-is, no-return terms and understand that the type of damage varies. In both cases the contents are random: the product page says the cards are packed at the factory and pulls are not guaranteed.

How many boxes should I plan for?

Plan for one box if you want to open the set and chase a card or two, and for more than one box if you want several specific cards, because multiples of one card may appear and a full set may be difficult to assemble. A box holds 144 cards across 24 packs, and the set lists 75+2 card types.

The set lists 29 Commons and 21 Rares against 9 Super Rares and 1 Secret Rare. That is a count of card types, not an odds statement. The official pages publish no pull rates, and we do not state any.

That leaves a clear rule for choosing. A box is a good way to open the set and to see the heroine art in person. It is a poor way to guarantee a playset of one named card, since the contents are random and pulls are not guaranteed. If your goal is exactly that, treat boxes as a way to open the set, not as a route to a fixed list, and keep your target card numbers written down.

For what is inside the Japanese box and what to expect when you open it, our EB-05 box guide covers the contents, and the EB-05 complete guide goes through the whole set.

How do shipping and payment work when I buy EB-05 from Tokyo?

Orders ship from our Tokyo warehouse via FedEx with tracking, and most orders are processed and shipped within 5 business days after PayPal or Wise payment has cleared. These are estimates, not guarantees. The table summarizes the shipping policy and the payment methods page.

Two points matter for a set released only days ago. First, the policy lists pre-order release timing and supplier allocation delays among the factors that can lengthen delivery. Second, the delivery estimates do not include customs processing, weekends or holidays. Plan for the total, not only the FedEx window.

On payment, Wise has the tightest deadline. Without a screenshot, an unpaid Wise order is cancelled automatically after 12 hours (3 hours if the order contains a pre-order item). With a screenshot uploaded within 5 days, the price is held for a total of 10 days. If you pay by SWIFT, the page says to add JPY 611 to the order total for the receiving fee. Because the card and PayPal routes carry the 5% processing fee, Wise is the route to pick if you want to avoid it and can meet its deadline.

What is the quickest way to decide on EB-05?

Decide in three steps: pick your target from Nico Robin EB05-010, Nami EB05-055 and Nami EB05-061, pick the box that fits how you will use it, and expect duplicates. That is the whole plan.

If this is your first Japanese One Piece box, the regular EB-05 box is the straightforward choice. The Japanese edition contains Japanese-language cards, and the card numbers in this guide match the identifiers on the official card list at en.onepiece-cardgame.com.

The official pages also carry cautions worth repeating: illustrations may differ somewhat from the final product, and details may change. Check card numbers against the official list before you commit to any single card.
