The OP-17 release date in Japan was August 22, 2026, when OP-17 The World’s Strongest Warriors launched at ¥240 per six-card random pack (¥5,760 MSRP per 24-pack box). The English edition followed on August 28, 2026, after an August 21 pre-release, and launch-weekend asking prices ran well above MSRP.
Answer first: OP-17 has released in both regions. Japan launched the set on Saturday, August 22, 2026, at ¥240 per six-card pack (¥5,760 MSRP per 24-pack box, 131+4 types), confirmed on the official Japanese product page. On launch weekend (August 24, 2026), asking prices on secondary marketplaces such as snkrdunk were ¥15,699–¥16,000 per sealed box (~$99–$101 at ¥159/USD) — roughly 2.7–2.8x MSRP. SST’s Japanese OP-17 booster box is currently listed at ¥11,191 (~$73); USD figures convert at ¥154/USD, approximate. The official English product page separately lists the August 21 pre-release, the August 28 release, USD 4.99 MSRP, and 131+4 types.
Three days after launch, independent secondary card-list trackers (yuyu-tei, akihabara-cardshop, tcg-portal) reported the same lineup: both Secret Rares — Rocks D. Xebec OP17-118 and Loki OP17-119, each with a parallel (SEC-P) version — the four confirmed Manga finals (Newgate OP17-005, Shanks OP17-022, Kaido OP17-062, Linlin OP17-112), the Super Leader Parallel Luffy OP17-079, and the Treasure Rare Lucky Roux OP17-033. The set’s third secret-rarity slot is filled by a new “Pirate Crew Super Parallel” treatment — Monkey D. Luffy EB04-061 alongside Rocks OP17-118 — a 4th-anniversary crossover treatment. These were secondary-source compilations, consistent across independent sites, not the manufacturer’s own searchable database.
- Both editions have released: Japan on August 22, 2026 and English on August 28, 2026. Launch-weekend marketplace figures stay dated August 24, 2026.
- Set reference: OP-17 card list.
- The Japanese OP-17 and OP-16 booster boxes are both currently listed on our store.
OP-17 Release Dates (Japan and English)
The Japanese edition released as scheduled on Saturday, August 22, 2026. The official Japanese page also states JPY 240 tax included per pack, six random cards per pack, and 131+4 types. OP-17 is the fourth-anniversary booster, and official ONE PIECE.com coverage ties its product identity to Elbaf and the Four Emperors.
The English product must remain separate. Its official page listed a pre-release on August 21, 2026 and a full release on August 28, 2026, with an MSRP of USD 4.99 per pack and 131+4 types. Those dates do not replace the Japanese August 22 release. They describe a different regional product and event schedule. The global release policy explains the movement toward closer worldwide timing, but regional pre-release and retail dates still need explicit labels.
| Market | Official timing | Official price | Official contents statement | How to use it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Japan / Japanese edition | Released: August 22, 2026 | JPY 240 tax included per pack | Six random cards per pack; 131+4 types | Primary Japanese edition. |

| Question | Status on August 24, 2026 | Primary evidence | Safe reader action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Is OP-17 a real official product? | Official | Japanese and English official product pages. | Use the official product pages for specs and regional dates. |
| When did the Japanese edition release? | August 22, 2026 | Japanese product page and official ONE PIECE.com news. | Keep this date labeled Japan; do not turn it into a seller shipping date. |
| When did the English edition release? | August 21 pre-release; August 28 release | Official English product page. | Keep English timing separate from Japanese-edition purchases. |
| Was every card published? | Consistent post-release lineup (August 24, 2026) | Independent secondary trackers (yuyu-tei, akihabara-cardshop, tcg-portal) reported a consistent set list three days after launch. | Treat as secondary-source confirmation; the official searchable database was pending on that date. |
| Does Bandai publish numerical pull rates? | Not on the official product pages | Official pages state random insertion; community sites publish conflicting single-source estimates. | Use only labeled community estimates; do not convert them into manufacturer guarantees. |
| What did the launch-weekend market show? | Elevated asking prices (August 24, 2026) | snkrdunk marketplace asks and shop listings. | Read asking prices as launch-weekend sentiment, not a guaranteed resale value. |
Release date is not fulfillment date
A manufacturer release date says when the product launches in the specified market. A seller fulfillment statement says when that seller expects to ship a particular listing. They are not interchangeable. The product page states the current seller terms; the manufacturer’s August 22 release date is not a shipping guarantee.
Pack price is not a live SST selling price
JPY 240 is the manufacturer MSRP for one Japanese pack (¥5,760 MSRP per 24-pack box). It is not the SST selling price and not a market figure: on launch weekend (August 24, 2026), sealed boxes were asking well above it on snkrdunk. It also does not establish the price of a display box, a sealed case, international shipping, taxes, or destination charges beyond that listing.
What product images can and cannot prove
They can prove identity
- The Japanese booster is OP-17.
- The official Japanese product imagery is public.
- The pack and display box belong to the same official product row.
They cannot prove collation
- They do not promise a specific leader, SEC, parallel, or Manga treatment.
- They do not publish a per-box treatment pattern.
- They do not show SST stock or fulfillment timing.
- They do not turn a premium reveal into a sealed-box entitlement.
Theme Read: Why The Title Matters
The product title matters because it is attached to an official fourth-anniversary booster. Official ONE PIECE.com coverage describes OP-17 as the fourth-anniversary set and ties its product identity to Elbaf and the Four Emperors. That positioning explains the revealed leaders and premium treatments without requiring an unsupported character list.
The Four Emperors structure is visible in the premium reveal material. Edward Newgate, Shanks, Kaido, and Charlotte Linlin received shown Manga treatments. The official program also presented New Emperor SP treatments featuring Luffy, Marshall D. Teach, Shanks, and Buggy, plus a separate group of Haki-style SP treatments. Luffy OP17-079 received a distinct Super Leader Parallel treatment. These are treatment facts, not a price order.
Theme is a navigation tool, not a missing-card generator
Elbaf, Four Emperors, and “strongest warriors” are useful ways to organize the official reveals. They are not permission to add every thematically plausible character. A full checklist row needs an official card image, official searchable database entry, or equivalent first-party publication.
This also protects buyers from treatment confusion. The base card number, standard card, alternate artwork, Manga treatment, SP treatment, and Super Leader Parallel can share a character name while remaining different items. A seller listing or card-list entry should identify the exact number, language, and treatment. “Gold Luffy” by itself is not enough when OP17-079 has a specific officially shown treatment.
Card List Highlights: Loki OP17-119, SEC and Manga Rare
The full set is on our OP-17 card list. These cards were shown in official Special Show programming, official card-account posts or official reveal images before release; secondary trackers (yuyu-tei, akihabara-cardshop, tcg-portal) listed the same cards three days after launch. Unpublished SEC identities, missing color slots and third-party master lists are not treated as official fact.
| Card | Identity shown | Status source | Editorial note |
|---|---|---|---|
| OP17-001 Edward Newgate | Red Leader | Official Special Show | Shown as one of the revealed leaders. |
| OP17-004 Inuarashi & Nekomamushi | Red Common | Official Japanese X reveal | A separately published official card image. It is useful as a reminder that low-rarity cards are part of the tracker, not only premium treatments. |
| OP17-005 Edward Newgate | Red Super Rare | Official Special Show | The corresponding Edward Newgate Manga treatment was also shown in official program material. |
| OP17-020 Shanks | Green Leader | Official Special Show | One of the revealed Emperor leaders. Card text should be checked from the final regional card database before tournament use. |
| OP17-022 Shanks | Green Super Rare | Official Special Show | The visible card shows 12000 power. A Shanks Manga treatment using this card number was also shown. |
| OP17-031 Yasopp | Green Super Rare | Official Special Show | Shown with the green Shanks group. No secondary-market conclusion is attached to the reveal. |
| OP17-058 Kaido | Purple Leader | Official Special Show | A revealed leader that supports the Four Emperors product identity. |
| OP17-062 Kaido | Purple Super Rare | Official Special Show | The corresponding Kaido Manga treatment was shown in the same official reveal wave. |
| OP17-063 Kaido | Purple Super Rare | Official Special Show | A second revealed Kaido Super Rare. Keep the card numbers separate when reading checklists or seller listings. |
| OP17-079 Monkey D. Luffy | Black Leader | Official Special Show | Official material showed the base leader family and the distinct Super Leader Parallel treatment. |
| OP17-080 Usopp | Black Super Rare | Official Special Show | The visible card shows 2000 power, not 3000. The visible image is the source for the power value. |
| OP17-093 Monkey D. Luffy | Black Super Rare | Official Special Show | A revealed black Luffy card, confirmed in the official reveal wave. |
| OP17-099 Charlotte Linlin | Yellow Leader | Official Special Show | One of the leaders shown officially. |
| OP17-112 Charlotte Linlin | Yellow Super Rare | Official Special Show | The corresponding Charlotte Linlin Manga treatment was shown in official program material. |
| OP17-119 Loki | Black Secret Rare | Official Special Show | Loki is an official reveal. The SAMPLE watermark on preview imagery is normal reveal material and is not a retail-card photograph. |

Card-level evidence and correction rules
Visible card-image text has priority over fast third-party transcription. Known examples are Usopp OP17-080 at 2000 power and Shanks OP17-022 at 12000 power. The same rule applies to color, cost, type, rarity, counter value, and effect wording. For play or event legality, use the final official regional card database and rules materials rather than an article summary.
Open questions on August 24, 2026
- A complete searchable official OP-17 checklist for every region.
- Any unrevealed leader, SEC, parallel, SP, or other treatment not shown by a first-party source.
- Final translated effect wording where regional databases have not published the card.
- Post-release opening samples with disclosed sample size — early community pull-rate estimates conflicted across sources and were not manufacturer-confirmed.
Pull-Rate and Box-Value Caveats
Bandai has not published a numerical OP-17 pull-rate table or a per-box premium-treatment guarantee on the official product pages. The official Japanese page says only that cards are randomly inserted. Community estimates circulating during launch weekend (torecamap, gamepedia) put the Pirate Crew Super Parallel at roughly 1 in 338 boxes, the Manga treatments at roughly 1 in 65–100 boxes (sources conflict: torecamap estimates about 1 in 65, gamepedia about 1 in 96), and the Super Leader Parallel at roughly 1 in 6 boxes. These are unofficial, single-site or conflicting community estimates, not manufacturer data and not a guarantee.
Launch-weekend market snapshot (August 24, 2026; asking and listing prices, not confirmed sales, and no box-return calculation): on snkrdunk, sealed OP-17 boxes were asking well above the ¥5,760 MSRP (12 recent asks, floor ¥15,999). Per-card asking floors on snkrdunk the same day: the Luffy Pirate Crew Super Parallel at a seven-figure ask (¥1,300,000); the Rocks D. Xebec SEC-P parallel at ¥540,000; Shanks Manga at ¥184,000; Newgate Manga at ¥120,000 (used, condition C, ¥198,000); the Luffy Super Leader Parallel at ¥115,000; Kaido Manga at ¥85,000; Linlin Manga at ¥80,000; and the Luffy SR-SPC 新四皇 Special Card ST31-004 insert at ¥75,000. Shop listings on yuyu-tei and torecamap ran higher for the same top cards — roughly ¥1.48M–¥2.2M for the Luffy Pirate Crew Super Parallel and ¥798,000–¥889,000 for the Rocks Pirate Crew Super Parallel — a spread between marketplace asks and shop list prices; both are asking or listing prices, never confirmed sales. Base Secret Rares were asking far lower: Loki SEC around ¥1,399 (¥3,600 parallel) and Rocks SEC around ¥2,750 (¥7,400 parallel); on that date the highest asks sat with the two Pirate Crew Super Parallels, then the Manga tier, then the leader parallel. JPY 240 remains only the official one-pack MSRP; it is not a completed-sale card result or a promise about the contents of any specific display box.
| Question | What is official | What is not established | Safe decision rule |
|---|---|---|---|
| Can a named card be expected from one box? | Cards are randomly inserted. | No official named-card box promise. | Buy a clearly identified single when only one exact card is acceptable. |
| How often does a Manga treatment appear? | Four treatments were shown. | No official numerical frequency; community estimates (roughly 1 in 65–100 boxes) conflict across sources. | Treat community estimates as directional only, never as manufacturer data. |
| Does JPY 240 determine box value? | JPY 240/pack, JPY 5,760/box is the official MSRP. | No manufacturer box-value figure; launch-weekend marketplace asks (August 24, 2026) ran well above MSRP. | Treat marketplace asks as unconfirmed sentiment, not guaranteed resale value. |
| Can reveal popularity set a permanent card order? | The treatments and characters are officially shown. | No completed-sale order, only launch-weekend asking prices. | Separate personal collecting priority from temporary asking prices. |
Opening data is useful only when its limits are visible. A useful sample needs a date, market, language, number of packs or boxes opened, treatment categories counted, and a statement that the sample is not an official guarantee. A screenshot of one successful opening is evidence that a card exists in product, not evidence of a stable rate.
OP-17 vs OP-16: What Changes After OP-16?
The useful comparison is product state and reader task, not a speculative return comparison. OP-16 The Time of Battle is the previous numbered booster and released earlier in Japan. OP-17 is the official fourth-anniversary successor, released in Japan on August 22, and brings an Elbaf and Four Emperors identity with newly shown premium treatment families.
| Point | OP-16 | OP-17 | Reader implication |
|---|---|---|---|
| Japanese product state | Released product | Released product (August 22, 2026) | Both sets can be assessed with live product and post-release evidence. |
| Japanese date | May 30, 2026 | August 22, 2026 | Use the correct set date in listings and guides. |
| Theme evidence | The Time of Battle product identity | Fourth anniversary, Elbaf, Four Emperors | Use official theme to organize, not to invent missing cards. |
| Purchase route | OP-16 booster box | OP-17 booster box | Use the correct product page for each set. |
Collectors comparing the two sets should begin with the experience they want: the earlier numbered booster or the fourth-anniversary booster. Players should compare the cards and rules that are actually published. Overseas buyers should compare exact language and fulfillment routes. None of those decisions require a pre-release yen ranking or a numerical box claim.
The SST OP-16 guide covers the previous set separately, so an OP-16 listing is not mistaken for OP-17.
Collector
Choose whether the goal is the sealed Japanese product, a complete card-list project, one Emperor Manga treatment, the Super Leader Parallel Luffy, Loki, or another exact card. When only one card is acceptable, a photographed single is the direct route.
Player
Use official card images and the final regional database for color, type, effect text, and legality. A reveal summary can help discovery, but it should not replace official text in deck construction or tournament preparation.
Sealed buyer
Verify edition, shrink or sealing description, seller fulfillment date, quantity unit, and destination charges. The manufacturer date does not promise when one seller will dispatch a listing.
Overseas buyer
Keep Japanese August 22 and English August 28 separate. Compare the language and release route you actually want rather than treating regional products as interchangeable.
Store buyer
Record product code, edition, quantity unit, supplier terms, allocation language, and delivery timing. Do not build customer promises from pack art or an unofficial checklist.
Evidence checklist before any order
- Edition: Japanese OP-17, not an English regional listing or an unlabeled import.
- Unit: single pack, display box, case, or another bundle clearly stated.
- Condition: sealed description and photographs that match the exact unit.
- Date wording: official release date separated from seller fulfillment timing.
- Availability: current published, public, purchasable, listed status with price above zero.
- Destination: shipping method, taxes, and any local import obligations checked at purchase time.
- Cart result: live subtotal and checkout validation, not an article screenshot.

FAQ
Is One Piece OP-17 officially confirmed?
Yes. OP-17 released in Japan on August 22, 2026 and in English on August 28, 2026. The official Japanese product page lists JPY 240 per pack, six random cards per pack, and 131 plus 4 types for the fourth-anniversary booster.
What was the Japanese OP-17 release date?
The Japanese edition released as scheduled on Saturday, August 22, 2026. This is the Japanese-edition date; it is not the English regional date and not a seller shipping date.
When did English OP-17 release?
The official English OP-17 page listed a pre-release on August 21, 2026 and a full release on August 28, 2026, with an MSRP of USD 4.99 per pack. Those dates belong to the English regional product. The Japanese edition released on August 22, so the dates stay labeled by market.
How many cards are in an OP-17 Japanese pack?
The official Japanese product page states six random cards per pack, with a box of 24 packs at JPY 5,760 MSRP. Random insertion means one pack cannot be used as a promise of a named leader, Super Rare, Secret Rare, parallel treatment, or Manga treatment. The page also states 131 plus 4 types for the product, which is a product-count statement rather than a box-completion guarantee.
Is Loki OP17-119 officially revealed?
Yes. Loki OP17-119 was shown in official OP-17 reveal programming as a black Secret Rare. Preview imagery carried a SAMPLE watermark and is reveal material, not a final retail scan.
Which OP-17 cards have Manga treatments?
Official reveal material showed Manga treatments connected to Edward Newgate OP17-005, Shanks OP17-022, Kaido OP17-062, and Charlotte Linlin OP17-112. That establishes the shown treatment lineup. It does not establish numerical insertion data, a completed-sales order, or a promise that any particular sealed box contains one.
What is the OP17-079 gold Luffy card?
Official reveal material presented a distinct Super Leader Parallel treatment for black Leader Monkey D. Luffy OP17-079. Buyers should identify the exact treatment, card number, language, and seller photograph. The presence of a premium treatment in official media does not make a sealed box a direct route to that exact card.
Are OP-17 pull rates official?
No numerical OP-17 pull-rate table is published by Bandai. Community estimates circulating during launch weekend put the Pirate Crew Super Parallel at roughly 1 in 338 boxes, the Manga treatments at roughly 1 in 65 to 100 boxes (sources conflict), and the Super Leader Parallel at roughly 1 in 6 boxes — all unofficial, single-site or conflicting community estimates, not manufacturer data.
What were Japanese OP-17 boxes asking on launch weekend?
On launch weekend (August 24, 2026), sealed Japanese OP-17 boxes were asking JPY 15,699 to 16,000 on snkrdunk, roughly 2.7 to 2.8 times the JPY 5,760 MSRP. These were asking prices, not confirmed sales; verify seller, sealed condition, destination and cart result before buying.
Does SST currently sell OP-17?
Yes. The Japanese OP-17 booster box has its own product page on our store.
What are SST checkout conditions for available products?
There is no minimum order amount. The live cart governs totals, shipping, and any account-specific terms.
Where can I track the OP-17 card list?
Use the official ONE PIECE CARD GAME product and reveal channels for primary evidence, then cross-check secondary trackers (yuyu-tei, akihabara-cardshop, tcg-portal), which reported a consistent post-release card list on launch weekend. Card images and final regional databases should override copied early transcription.
