One Piece OP-16 The Time of Battle Pull Rates, Best Cards & Pre-Order Guide [2026]
OP-16 The Time of Battle / Kessen no Toki thumbnail composite using official product and card imagery.
OP-16 The Time of Battle is the next major One Piece Card Game release after OP-15, and it has the exact ingredients collectors usually chase: a Marineford / Summit War theme, six new Leaders, Secret Rares for Ace and Blackbeard, and a Super Parallel lineup centered on the three Admirals.
The Japanese set, 決戦の刻 / Kessen no Toki, releases in Japan on May 30, 2026. The English version follows on June 12, 2026 under the name The Time of Battle. This guide tracks what is confirmed, what is still estimated, and how to think about sealed boxes before release.

Key Takeaway
OP-16 is a collector-first set because the theme is Marineford, the Leader lineup includes Ace, Luffy, Buggy, Sengoku, Yamato, and Blackbeard, and the top chase attention is already centered on the Admiral Super Parallels. For sealed buyers, buy Japanese early if you care about first access and Japanese print quality; wait for English if you play locally or want English text. Pull rates below are estimates based on current One Piece Card Game box/case patterns, not official odds.

OP-16 Set Overview
Official Japanese product feature image for OP-16 Kessen no Toki.
OP-16 returns to the war that defined One Piece for a generation of fans: Impel Down into Marineford. The official Japanese product page frames it as the return of a world-shaking decisive battle, with many characters from that war appearing across the set.
That matters commercially. Marineford is not a small side arc. It includes Luffy trying to save Ace, Whitebeard’s final stand, the Navy’s full force, the Warlords, Blackbeard’s arrival, and the emotional pivot that shaped the post-timeskip story. For a trading card set, that gives OP-16 a broader collector audience than a normal mechanical release.

This is the part to watch: OP-16 has both collector demand and player relevance. Sets with only one of those can fade after launch. Sets with both tend to hold attention longer.
New Leaders in OP-16
The official page highlights six new Leaders. Each one maps to a faction or storyline from the Summit War period.
Whitebeard Pirates, aggressive pressure, fast attacks
Monkey.D.Luffy
Green / Blue
Impel Down, resource acceleration, fast development
Buggy
Blue
Impel Down / Buggy Pirates, board swarming and tempo
Sengoku
Purple
Navy / Admirals, high-cost power turns
Yamato
Black
Wano, trash recursion and rush pressure
Marshall.D.Teach
Black / Yellow
Blackbeard Pirates, defensive control and attack redirection
Best collector Leaders
Ace and Blackbeard should be the broadest collector targets because they sit at the emotional center of Marineford. Luffy is always liquid, even when the specific card is not the most competitive. Yamato has a strong standalone collector base, and Sengoku may become more attractive if the Admiral package performs in tournaments.
Best player Leaders to watch
Sengoku is the most interesting if the Admiral engine gets enough consistency. Luffy has the cleanest early appeal because Impel Down resource acceleration is easy to understand. Blackbeard is the wild card: defensive redirection effects can be format-shaping if the support cards line up.
Best OP-16 Chase Cards to Watch
Because OP-16 is not fully launched yet, this section focuses on confirmed high-attention slots rather than pretending day-one prices are settled.
Kuzan is one of the three Admiral Super Parallels currently drawing the most attention. The Marineford theme gives him stronger narrative value than a random Navy support card, and purple Navy support could keep the card relevant beyond pure collecting.
2. Sakazuki Super Parallel
Sakazuki is likely to be the most emotionally charged Admiral chase because of his Marineford role. That can cut both ways: some collectors love the villain profile; others prefer Ace, Whitebeard, or Luffy. Either way, Sakazuki should be one of the most watched cards in the set.
3. Borsalino Super Parallel
Borsalino completes the three-Admiral chase group. If OP-16 box openings show the Admiral Super Parallel slot is genuinely hard to hit, collectors may try to complete all three rather than buying just one.
4. Portgas.D.Ace Secret Rare
Ace has the cleanest collector demand in the set. If the Secret Rare or parallel treatment looks strong, Ace can be one of the safest long-term singles because his value does not depend entirely on the meta.
5. Marshall.D.Teach Secret Rare
Blackbeard is a long-term franchise villain. If his OP-16 card is playable, the Secret Rare can carry both player and collector demand. That combination usually creates better liquidity than art-only chase cards.
6. Treasure Rare
The official Japanese product page lists one Treasure Rare. Treat this as a high-variance collector slot until enough openings confirm exact availability and market pricing.
7. Leader Parallels
Leader parallels are usually liquid because they appeal to players and collectors. Ace, Luffy, Blackbeard, and Yamato should be the first four to monitor.

Do not open boxes expecting this
The right way to think about OP-16 is not “how many boxes until I hit the top card?” It is:
One box gives you the opening experience and a chance at upside.
A sealed case gives you better distribution across high-rarity slots.
A single chase card is usually cheaper to buy directly than to chase through random boxes.
Should You Buy Japanese OP-16 or Wait for English?
This is the cleanest split.
Buyer Type
Better Choice
Why
Japanese card collectors
Japanese OP-16
First release, original language, Japanese print quality
English-language players
English OP-16
Tournament readability and local demand
Sealed investors
Depends on allocation
English can spike if allocation is tight; Japanese has earlier market discovery
Singles buyers
Wait 2-4 weeks after launch
Early prices are usually unstable
Marineford collectors
Japanese early + singles later
One box for experience, then target the exact Ace/Admiral cards
Japanese boxes arrive first. That means Japan will set the early market narrative: which cards are actually hard to pull, which Leaders are playable, and which chase singles hold after the first wave of openings.
English boxes matter for a different reason. English demand is driven by local play, sealed allocation, and restock visibility. OP-09 and OP-13 showed that English One Piece sealed product can move very differently from Japanese sealed product when supply tightens.
If you want the top chase card, do not pretend sealed boxes are the cheapest path. They usually are not.
Buy a box if:
You want the opening experience.
You collect sealed Japanese One Piece boxes.
You are comfortable with variance.
You want first access before English release.
Buy singles if:
You only want Ace, Blackbeard, or one specific Admiral.
You care about grading candidates.
You do not want duplicate bulk.
You can wait for the first price correction.
Best practical plan
Buy one Japanese box or a small sealed quantity for the experience.
Watch the first two weeks of Japanese openings.
Buy specific singles after supply appears.
Re-check English sealed allocation before June 12.
That gives you exposure without turning the whole purchase into a lottery ticket.
Price Outlook Before Release
OP-16 should launch with strong attention because Marineford is a major arc and the card pool has several obvious collector anchors. The risk is that early prices can be emotionally inflated before enough supply reaches the market.
Cards most likely to hold better:
Ace high-rarity cards
Blackbeard high-rarity cards
Admiral Super Parallels, especially if the full trio becomes a display target
Strong Leader Parallels with both player and collector demand
Cards most likely to correct:
Mid-tier parallels with no meta role
Non-iconic characters that spike only because they are new
Cards with wide day-one pricing and low buylist support
For sealed Japanese boxes, watch the restock pattern. If boxes soften toward MSRP after launch, singles may become the better value. If OP-16 allocation is tight and the Admiral chases prove extremely scarce, sealed boxes can hold a stronger premium.

PRB-01 taux de tirage, meilleures cartes & Gold DON Guide, 2026
A single Monkey D. Luffy Comic Parallel from PRB-01 sells for over $2,900 ungraded. The mythical God Pack — ten historic Comic Parallels sealed in one pack — has traded above $9,000. And Gold DON!! cards, exclusive to this set, now command $200–$500 each.
ONE PIECE CARD THE BEST (PRB-01) is the first-ever premium booster in the ONE PIECE CARD GAME. Released in Japan on July 27, 2024, and internationally on November 8, 2024, this set packages the most iconic cards from OP-01 through OP-06 with brand-new artwork, a new Sanji Leader card, and 30 exclusive Gold DON!! cards.
Whether you’re eyeing the Gold DON cards for your collection, hunting for reprinted tournament staples, or simply wondering if a PRB-01 box is worth opening in 2026, this guide covers everything: the top 10 most valuable cards, estimated pull rates, current market prices, and a clear buying strategy. We track JPN market data from SNKRDUNK and Mercari alongside EN pricing from TCGPlayer and eBay daily.

PRB-01 — Set Overview
PRB-01 breaks from the standard booster format. Instead of 24 packs with 6 cards each, a premium booster box contains 10 packs of 10 cards — 100 cards au total par boite.
JPN boxes trade around ¥8,900 on SNKRDUNK, while EN sealed boxes have surged to approximately $858 on PriceCharting — driven by the EN Gold DON cards’ strong collector demand.
PRB-01 ONE PIECE CARD THE BEST Booster Box
What’s Inside — Reprints, New Art & Exclusives
PRB-01 collects fan-favorite cards from the first six main booster sets (OP-01 through OP-06) and pairs them with fresh artwork. Over 50 cards feature newly commissioned alternate-art parallels with premium foil treatments.
Key inclusions:
Sanji (PRB01-001) — A brand-new Leader card exclusive to this set. 5 Life, 5000 Power with Strike. His ability grants Rush to characters costing 8 or less without On Play effects, once per turn
Reprinted tournament staples — Green 10-cost Doflamingo (OP-04), Charlotte Katakuri (OP-03), Dracule Mihawk (OP-01), Gum-Gum Red Roc
30 exclusive DON!! cards — Character-art DON cards featuring Zoro, Uta, Law, Ace, Luffy, Yamato, Perona, Vivi, Reiju, Sabo, and more. Gold foil versions are the primary chase cards
8 Secret Rares — Including manga-art Comic Parallels of Luffy, Nami, Zoro, Sogeking, Shanks, and Katakuri
What Makes PRB-01 Unique
PRB-01 is the only source for Gold DON!! cards in the entire OPTCG lineup. Combined with reprinted fan-favorites in new artwork and the legendary God Pack, this set offers a collecting experience no standard booster can match.
The God Pack — OPTCG’s Rarest Pull
The God Pack is PRB-01’s most exclusive feature. One sealed pack containing all ten historic Comic Parallel cards — the manga-panel artwork versions that individually sell for hundreds to thousands of dollars.
Estimated pull rate: roughly 1 God Pack per 100 cartons (1,000 boxes). Complete God Packs have sold for ¥1,380,000 (approximately $9,200) in the JPN market.
God Pack Odds
A carton is 10 boxes. At ¥8,900 per box, you’d spend ¥8,900,000 (~$59,300) opening 1,000 boxes before statistically expecting one God Pack. This makes it a collector’s dream — something to celebrate if you pull one, not something to chase by volume.

#1 — Comic COMIC PARALLEL
Monkey D. Luffy (OP05-119)
~$2,950 · JPN: ~¥440,000
The Gear 5 Luffy Comic Parallel is PRB-01’s crown jewel, featuring the iconic manga panel of Luffy’s awakening rendered across the full card face. Ungraded copies trade around $2,950, while PSA 10 specimens have reached $7,500. A BGS 10 Black Label sold for $10,601 in November 2025. Three factors drive this card’s value: Luffy’s status as the franchise protagonist, the Gear 5 transformation being the series’ most celebrated moment, and the Comic Parallel treatment being the rarest card type in OPTCG.
Rarity Check
All three top cards are Comic Parallels with an estimated pull rate of 1 per 6–8 cartons. At 10 boxes per carton, that’s roughly 1 in every 60–80 boxes. Their value reflects genuine scarcity.
#2 — Comic COMIC PARALLEL
Nami (OP01-016)
~$700 · JPN: ~¥80,000
Nami’s Comic Parallel is the signature card of PRB-01 — created specifically for this set rather than reprinted from an earlier booster. Character popularity drives much of the value. Nami consistently ranks among the top three most popular ONE PIECE characters in fan polls, and this is her first (and to date, only) Comic Parallel card. From a play perspective, the base OP01-016 Nami is a staple 2-cost character in Red decks.
#3 — Comic COMIC PARALLEL
Roronoa Zoro (OP06-118)
~$665 · JPN: ~¥100,000
Zoro’s Comic Parallel showcases one of his signature sword techniques in striking black-and-white manga composition. Zoro’s position as the Straw Hat crew’s second-in-command gives this card consistent collector demand. The JPN market has held relatively stable since launch, suggesting the price has found its floor.
#4–10: Gold DON!! Cards & More Comic Parallels
The remaining top cards split between Comic Parallels and the set-exclusive Gold DON!! cards:
4
DON!! Zoro (Gold) SP
~$525 · JPN: ~¥30,000
Most accessible high-value chase card. Gold DON cards appear at ~1 per carton.
5
Shanks (OP01-120) Comic
~$600 · JPN: ~¥100,000
Iconic character with manga-panel artwork carrying strong emotional resonance.
6
Sogeking (OP03-122) Comic
~$430 · JPN: ~¥65,000
Captures the “brave warrior of the sea” moment — a top fan-voted scene.
7
DON!! Uta (Gold) SP
~$215 · JPN: ~¥25,000
FILM RED crossover appeal between movie fans and card collectors.
8
DON!! Law (Gold) SP
~$170 · JPN: ~¥18,000
Trafalgar Law’s consistent popularity keeps demand steady across all media.
9
DON!! Ace (Gold) SP
~$105 · JPN: ~¥16,000
Sleeper hit — undervalued relative to Ace’s cultural impact in ONE PIECE.
10
DON!! Perona (Gold) SP
~$103 · JPN: ~¥16,000
Surprise entry driven by Perona’s dedicated fanbase and striking artwork.
Beyond the Top 10
Additional Gold DON cards worth noting: Yamato (~$103), Luffy (~$97), Sabo (~$90), and Vivi (~$80). The full 30-card Gold DON lineup means meaningful chase value across many packs.
Should You Buy PRB-01?
PRB-01 remains one of the most compelling premium products in OPTCG, even 20 months after its JPN release. The answer depends on what you’re after.
For Collectors
Verdict: Strong buy for Gold DON cards and new-art parallels.
The 30 exclusive Gold DON cards cannot be found in any other set. If you want gold-foiled character DON cards for your collection or tournament deck, PRB-01 is your only source. The new-art parallels across 50+ cards also provide unique versions of classic cards that look distinctly different from their original printings.
The God Pack dream is a bonus — not a strategy. With odds around 1 in 1,000 boxes, treat any God Pack pull as a celebration rather than an expected outcome.
Collector Tip
Gold DON cards from PRB-01 are tournament-legal and make excellent display pieces. Many collectors frame their Gold DON alongside the matching character’s Comic Parallel for a premium showcase.
For Players
Verdict: Consider singles for specific staples. Buy a box for DON card variety.
PRB-01 reprinted several tournament-relevant cards with fresh artwork:
Sanji Leader (PRB01-001) grants Rush to cost-8-or-less characters — a unique aggressive strategy for blue/purple builds
Green Doflamingo (10-cost) remains a meta-relevant finisher
Charlotte Katakuri continues to see play as a removal tool
Gum-Gum Red Roc is still one of the most efficient removal events in the game
Buying singles is almost always more cost-effective for competitive decks. But if you also want Gold DON cards to personalize your deck’s DON pile, a box gives you parallel DON cards (roughly 1 per box) plus a chance at the Gold variants.
Sanji Leader Impact
The Sanji Leader (PRB01-001) with Rush-granting ability has carved out a niche in blue/purple aggressive builds. If you’re building around this strategy, opening a box gives you the best chance at pulling the Leader Parallel version.
For Investors
Verdict: Monitor the EN sealed box market.
EN sealed PRB-01 boxes have climbed from ~$55 at launch to approximately $858 — driven by limited print runs and Gold DON card demand. JPN boxes have been more stable, rising from ¥5,500 to ¥8,900 — a 62% gain, but modest compared to some standard booster sets.
Gold DON singles, particularly the Zoro variant, have shown steady price growth. Cards that serve both competitive and collector purposes tend to hold value well in OPTCG.
PRB-02 (Premium Booster Vol. 2) has been announced. New premium booster releases can either boost interest in the product category (positive for PRB-01) or redistribute collector attention (short-term pressure on PRB-01 prices).

Box Contents Breakdown
A typical PRB-01 box yields roughly:
4-5 Super Rares with varying value (most SRs trade under ¥2,000 / $15)
1 Secret Rare — the floor for box value. SECs range from ¥3,000 to ¥15,000 depending on the card
1 Parallel DON!! — standard parallel (not gold), trading around ¥1,000-3,000
Filler — Commons, Uncommons, and Rares with minimal individual value
Box Value Floor
The SR and SEC guaranteed slots support a baseline box value. Pulling a Gold DON or Comic Parallel pushes a box into profit territory — but those pulls require luck or volume.

Current market (SNKRDUNK)
The EN sealed market tells a more dramatic story. From ~$55 at launch, EN boxes peaked near $975 in January 2026 before settling to approximately $858 — reflecting limited EN print runs and strong Gold DON demand from international collectors.
Price Outlook
Gold DON cards have generally appreciated since launch. The Zoro Gold DON climbed from approximately $260 at release to $525 currently — roughly doubling in value over 20 months. This reflects growing recognition of Gold DON cards as a distinct collectible category within OPTCG.
Key Card Price Movement
Comic Parallel prices have been more volatile. The Luffy (OP05-119) Comic Parallel fluctuates between $2,500 and $3,500 depending on market conditions, while other Comic Parallels have found relatively stable price floors.
The broader OPTCG market remains healthy heading into 2026, with new set releases maintaining collector engagement and tournament activity keeping demand for competitive staples.

Which to Pick?
Standard boosters offer more new cards and competitive impact. PRB-01 offers something no standard set can — exclusive Gold DON cards and the chance at a God Pack. Serious collectors often buy both.
Where to Buy PRB-01
JPN boxes ship directly from Tokyo with tracked delivery. At approximately ¥8,900 (~$59), a JPN PRB-01 box remains one of the most affordable premium products in OPTCG relative to its chase card potential.
When buying from Japan, factor in shipping (typically $15-25 for a single box) and potential customs duties depending on your country. Boxes arrive sealed with original BANDAI shrink wrap.
Gold DON cards are the real chase — 30 exclusive character DON cards with gold foil, available nowhere else. Prices range from $75 to $525.
Comic Parallels are lottery tickets — Beautiful manga-panel artwork on cards worth $430 to $2,950, but pull rates of 1 per 60-80 boxes make them celebration pulls, not expectations.
JPN boxes are the sweet spot — At ~¥8,900 (~$59), JPN boxes offer the Gold DON chase at a fraction of EN sealed prices (~$858). The guaranteed SEC and SR pulls provide baseline value.
PRB-01 carved out a unique niche in OPTCG as the first premium booster. With no other source for Gold DON cards and the legendary God Pack, it remains a collector essential heading into 2026.
What are the best cards in PRB-01 ONE PIECE CARD THE BEST?
The most valuable card is the Monkey D. Luffy (OP05-119) Comic Parallel, trading around $2,950 ungraded. The Nami (OP01-016) Comic Parallel and Gold DON Zoro card are the next highest-value pulls. Gold DON cards across all 30 character variants range from $75 to $525, making them the primary chase cards for most collectors opening boxes.
What is the pull rate for Gold DON cards in PRB-01?
Gold DON cards (Super Parallel DON) are estimated at approximately 1 per carton (10 boxes). Regular Parallel DON cards appear at roughly 1 per box. These rates are community-estimated from JPN opening data and are not officially confirmed by BANDAI.
Is the PRB-01 Premium Booster worth buying in 2026?
For collectors wanting Gold DON cards, yes — these exclusive cards cannot be found in any other set. For competitive players, buying singles of specific reprinted staples is more cost-effective. JPN boxes at ~¥8,900 (~$59) offer reasonable value given the guaranteed SEC pull and chance at Gold DON cards. EN sealed boxes at ~$858 are primarily investment/collector purchases.
What is a God Pack in ONE PIECE CARD THE BEST?
The God Pack is an ultra-rare sealed pack containing all ten Comic Parallel cards from the set. Estimated pull rate is roughly 1 per 100 cartons (1,000 boxes). Complete God Packs have sold for approximately ¥1,380,000 (~$9,200). This is the rarest pull in any OPTCG product released to date.
How many packs are in a PRB-01 box?
A PRB-01 premium booster box contains 10 packs with 10 cards each (100 cards total). This differs from standard booster boxes, which contain 24 packs of 6 cards (144 cards total).
How does PRB-01 compare to PRB-02?
PRB-01 features cards from OP-01 through OP-06, while PRB-02 covers later sets. PRB-01 is notable for its Gold DON cards and the God Pack feature. Both sets share the premium booster format (10 packs, 10 cards per box). PRB-01 has had more time on the market, so its prices are more established, while PRB-02 offers newer chase cards including a highly sought-after Manga Sanji.
Can I use Gold DON cards in tournaments?
Yes. Gold DON cards are functionally identical to standard DON!! cards and are fully tournament-legal. Many competitive players specifically seek Gold DON versions of their favorite characters to personalize their DON deck.

PRB-02 THE BEST vol.2: taux de tirage et meilleures cartes: guide
What are the best cards in PRB-02, and what can you realistically pull from a box? Sanji’s first-ever Comic Parallel sits at the top at roughly $500, making it one of the most coveted pulls in ONE PIECE CARD GAME history. But the real story of ONE PIECE CARD THE BEST vol.2 goes beyond a single chase card — this premium booster introduces 30 character-themed Gold DON!! cards, God Packs loaded with parallels, and alternate art reprints of some of the game’s most iconic event cards.
Every single PRB-02 pack guarantees at least one Super Rare or better, which fundamentally changes the opening experience compared to regular OP sets. From collectors chasing Gold DON!! completionism to competitive players upgrading their tournament decks with premium alt arts, this set delivers genuine value at a surprisingly accessible price point — especially on the JPN side.
In this guide, we break down every high-value card in PRB-02, share estimated pull rates from the Japanese opening community, rank all 30 Gold DON!! cards by market value, and give you a clear framework for deciding if this set is right for your collection. All pricing reflects March 2026 data from PriceCharting, SNKRDUNK, and Japanese card shop buyback rates.

Top 10 Most Valuable Cards in PRB-02
Sanji’s Comic Parallel dominates the PRB-02 value chart at ~$500, followed by a compelling mix of event card alt arts and Gold DON!! super parallels that keeps the chase exciting well beyond the #1 spot. Prices below reflect March 2026 secondary market data.
#1 — Comic COMIC PARALLEL
Sanji (OP06-119)
~$500 · JPN: ~¥40,000
The crown jewel of PRB-02 and one of the rarest pulls in recent OPTCG history. With an estimated pull rate of just 1 per 100-200 boxes, Sanji’s Comic Parallel commands premium pricing that reflects both extreme scarcity and his enduring popularity. The manga-style illustration captures Sanji in a dynamic pose, completing the Straw Hat Comic Parallel lineup that started with Zoro and Nami in PRB-01.
Rarity Check
At roughly 1 per 100-200 boxes, the Sanji Comic Parallel is among the rarest pulls in any OPTCG product. For context, that’s roughly 1 in every 1,000-2,000 packs opened.
#2 — SP EVENT SP
Gomu Gomu no Gigant (OP09-078)
~$250 · JPN: ~¥18,000
This event SP features a breathtaking new illustration of Luffy’s signature attack. The original OP09-078 is a staple removal card in Luffy-based decks, and this alt art elevates it to collector-grade status while maintaining full tournament legality. Dual appeal — competitive relevance plus premium art — makes it one of PRB-02’s most stable value holds.
#3 — Gold GOLD DON!! SUPER PARALLEL
Gold DON!! Shanks
~$85 · JPN: ~¥9,000
The Shanks Gold DON!! leads the 30-card lineup by a comfortable margin. Character popularity drives pricing among Gold DON!! cards, and Shanks sits at the very top. Gold DON!! Super Parallels appear at roughly 1 per 5 boxes, but with 30 characters in the pool, pulling a specific character like Shanks requires considerably more luck.

Gold DON!! Complete Tier List — All 30 Characters Ranked
No other OPTCG product offers anything like PRB-02’s Gold DON!! cards — 30 unique character designs with gold foil treatment, each available in regular parallel (roughly 1 per box) and rare Super Parallel Gold Frame (roughly 1 per 5 boxes) versions. Character popularity drives a 9x price spread across the set.

Pull Rates & What’s in Your Box
Every PRB-02 pack guarantees at least one SR or better — a baseline that standard booster sets cannot match, which means even a “bad” box delivers solid foundational value through its SR content.

God Pack — What It Is and What It’s Worth
PRB-02 features two types of God Packs — ultra-rare packs where all 10 cards are premium:
Parallel God Pack: All 10 cards are parallel versions, potentially including SEC and SP cards
Gold DON!! God Pack: All 10 cards are Gold DON!! Super Parallels from the 30-character lineup
The Gold DON!! God Pack is estimated at roughly 1 per 15-20 cartons. With individual Gold DON!! cards ranging from $10-85, a single God Pack delivers an estimated $300-500+ in total card value.
God Pack Value
Pulling a Gold DON!! God Pack from a ~$60 JPN box means 10 premium Gold DON!! Super Parallels worth an estimated $300-500+ total. The odds are roughly 1 in 300-400 boxes — rare, but the payoff is extraordinary.

Should You Buy PRB-02?
PRB-02 ranks among the strongest premium products in the OPTCG lineup, with the guaranteed SR-per-pack structure and Gold DON!! chase cards setting it apart from every standard booster on the market.
For Collectors
Verdict: Strong buy for character collectors and DON!! completionists.
The Gold DON!! subset is a collecting experience that no other OPTCG product offers. Chasing all 30 characters creates a long-term project, and the gold foil treatment makes these cards display-worthy. The Sanji Comic Parallel adds a true grail-tier chase card, and the event card SPs offer premium art for iconic game moments.
Collection Value
A complete set of all 30 Gold DON!! Super Parallels carries a combined market value of roughly $800-1,000+, making it one of the most rewarding subset completions in OPTCG.
For Players
Verdict: Selective buy — target specific SP cards for deck upgrades.
PRB-02’s event card SPs (Gomu Gomu no Gigant, Cross Guild, Come On!! We’ll Fight You!!) offer premium versions of tournament staples. The guaranteed SR content also provides solid deck-building material. If you only need one or two specific cards, buying singles from a card shop may be more cost-effective than chasing them through sealed product.
PRB-01’s top chase cards have appreciated since release, and PRB-02 follows a similar premium product structure. The Gold DON!! subset creates sustained demand as collectors pursue the full 30-card set. Sealed product pricing is most attractive on the JPN side — at ~$60 per box, the risk-reward profile for JPN sealed product is favorable compared to EN pricing.
JPN PRB-02 pricing has settled into a stable range eight months after launch, buoyed by ongoing collector demand for Gold DON!! cards and sustained interest in the Sanji Comic Parallel.
BOX Price Movement
JPN boxes currently trade around $60-65 internationally, representing a modest premium over the ¥5,500 list price. This stability is notable compared to many standard booster sets that spike and settle — premium boosters receive dedicated print allocation from Bandai, which keeps supply more predictable.
EN boxes tell a different story at $300+, reflecting limited international print runs and strong collector demand for the English-language version.
Timing Tip
Premium booster products historically become harder to find at reasonable prices as time passes. PRB-01 boxes now trade above their launch-period pricing. The current $60-65 range for JPN PRB-02 boxes may represent an accessible window.

Where to Buy PRB-02 from Japan
For international collectors, buying JPN PRB-02 directly from Japan offers the strongest value proposition at ~$60 per box versus $300+ for EN.
What to expect when ordering from Japan:
Shipping typically takes 7-14 business days to US/CA/UK/AU
Customs duties may apply depending on your country (usually 0-5% for trading cards)
All boxes are factory sealed with original shrink wrap
PRB-02 ONE PIECE CARD THE BEST vol.2 delivers three things no standard booster set can match:
Guaranteed SR-per-pack baseline — every pack delivers value, eliminating the “all commons” disappointment
Gold DON!! chase cards — a 30-character collectible subset with real market value across all tiers
Grail-level chase in Sanji Comic Parallel — a ~$500 card that gives every box opening genuine excitement
At ~$60 for a JPN box, the entry point is accessible. The worst-case scenario still delivers a box full of SRs and a shot at Gold DON!! Super Parallels. The best case includes SP event cards or the legendary Sanji pull.
Every pack guarantees at least one SR or better. Per box (10 packs), you can expect roughly 10 SRs, 1 SEC or Parallel, and 1 Gold DON!! regular. Gold DON!! Super Parallels appear at about 1 per 5 boxes. SP cards are roughly 1 per 20 boxes, and the Sanji Comic Parallel is estimated at 1 per 100-200 boxes. Pull rates are community-estimated and not officially confirmed by Bandai.
What is the most expensive card in PRB-02?
The Sanji Comic Parallel (OP06-119) is the most valuable card at approximately $500 as of March 2026. It is Sanji’s first-ever Comic Parallel card and has an extremely low pull rate estimated at 1 per 100-200 boxes.
What is a PRB-02 God Pack?
God Packs are ultra-rare packs where all 10 cards are premium pulls. PRB-02 has two types: a Parallel God Pack (all cards are parallel versions) and a Gold DON!! God Pack (all 10 cards are Gold DON!! Super Parallels). The estimated rate is about 1 God Pack per 15-20 cartons.
How many Gold DON!! cards are in PRB-02?
PRB-02 contains 30 character-themed Gold DON!! cards, each featuring a unique character illustration with gold foil treatment. Each character has a regular parallel version and a rarer Super Parallel (Gold Frame) version. Character popularity drives significant price differences, ranging from ~$10 for budget characters to ~$85 for Shanks.
Is PRB-02 worth buying?
For collectors, PRB-02 offers strong value at the JPN price point (~$60 per box). The guaranteed SR-per-pack structure, Gold DON!! chase cards, and Sanji Comic Parallel create a premium opening experience. For players seeking specific cards, buying singles may be more cost-effective. EN boxes at $300+ carry a steeper entry cost but appeal to English-language collectors.
What is the difference between PRB-01 and PRB-02?
PRB-01 introduced the Gold DON!! concept and featured Zoro and Nami Comic Parallels. PRB-02 continues with Sanji’s Comic Parallel, expands the Gold DON!! lineup to 30 characters, and adds new event card SPs. Both are premium products with guaranteed SR-per-pack, but PRB-02 offers more chase card variety through its larger Gold DON!! pool.
When was PRB-02 released in English?
The English version of PRB-02 released on October 3, 2025, roughly three months after the Japanese release (July 26, 2025). EN boxes trade at a notable premium (~$300+) compared to JPN boxes (~$60-65) due to lower print volume.

EB-01 Memorial Collection: taux de tirage et meilleures cartes
What are the best cards in EB-01, and is ONE PIECE CARD GAME’s first-ever Extra Booster still worth buying two years after release? The Tony Tony Chopper Manga Rare commands roughly $666 on the secondary market, making it one of the most valuable single pulls in the entire game. But EB-01 Memorial Collection offers far more than one chase card — this set introduced competitive staples that still see tournament play today, fan-favorite alternate arts spanning Dressrosa to Impel Down, and a collector-driven appeal that has pushed JPN box prices well above their original retail.
With only 62 card types and a single Secret Rare, EB-01 packs a surprisingly concentrated value profile. Every box delivers guaranteed SR content across 24 packs, and the smaller card pool means your odds of pulling specific chase cards are meaningfully better than in a standard 121-type booster set.
In this guide, we rank every high-value card in EB-01, break down estimated pull rates from the Japanese opening community, analyze current market trends, and help you decide whether Memorial Collection belongs in your collection. All pricing reflects March 2026 data from PriceCharting and Japanese card shop buyback rates.

What Is EB-01? Set Overview & Specs
EB-01 Memorial Collection is the first Extra Booster in ONE PIECE CARD GAME history — a smaller, collector-focused product that supplements existing deck themes rather than launching new ones, with fan-favorite characters from Dressrosa, Baroque Works, Impel Down, and Wano.
EB-01 is the very first Extra Booster in OPTCG history — a landmark product that established the format for all subsequent EB sets. Its compact 62-card pool versus 121+ in standard sets gives meaningfully better pull odds.
What Makes EB-01 Special
EB-01 stands apart from standard OP booster sets in several ways:
Compact card pool — Only 62 types versus 121+ in standard sets, giving better pull odds for specific cards
Three new Leaders — Kouzuki Oden, Kyros, and Hannyabal each bring unique deck-building options
Manga Rare debut — Tony Tony Chopper received the set’s only Manga Rare treatment, creating the ultimate chase card
Competitive staples — Mr. 2 Bon Kurei (SEC), Charlotte Flampe, and Shirahoshi became meta-defining cards
Cross-arc nostalgia — Cards spanning Dressrosa, Baroque Works, Impel Down, Fish-Man Island, and Wano arcs
The Chopper Manga Rare dominates EB-01’s value chart at ~$666, followed by Mr. 2 Bon Kurei’s SEC alternate art and Charlotte Flampe’s SP — a spread that reflects both collector demand and lasting competitive relevance. Prices below reflect March 2026 JPN secondary market data.
#1 — Manga MANGA RARE
Tony Tony Chopper (EB01-006)
~$666 · JPN: ~¥50,000+
The undisputed king of EB-01 and one of the most valuable Manga Rares in all of OPTCG. This Chopper features the iconic manga panel art treatment that collectors prize above almost every other rarity tier. With an estimated pull rate of roughly 1 per 4-6 cartons, the Chopper Manga Rare turns any box opening into a legitimate treasure hunt. Two years after release, this card has held its value remarkably well.
Rarity Check
At roughly 1 per 4-6 cartons (48-144 boxes), the Chopper Manga Rare is among the rarest pulls in any OPTCG product. For context, that’s roughly 1 in every 1,150-3,450 packs opened.
#2 — SEC SECRET RARE ALT ART
Mr. 2 Bon Kurei / Bentham (EB01-061)
~$39 · JPN: ~¥4,000
EB-01’s sole Secret Rare pulls double duty as both a collector piece and a competitive powerhouse. Mr. 2 sees play in Red Purple Trafalgar Law — one of the strongest decks across multiple formats — and his ability to impersonate Nami gives him unique mechanical appeal. As the only SEC in a 62-card set, the alternate art version commands premium pricing.
#3 — SP SPECIAL ART PARALLEL
Charlotte Flampe (EB01-056)
~$35 · JPN: ~¥3,500
Flampe’s SP version benefits from sustained competitive demand. Yellow decks have been a dominant force in OPTCG’s metagame for multiple formats, and Flampe serves as a key support piece with draw engine mechanics. The SP art treatment elevates an already valuable competitive card into genuine collector territory.

Pull Rates & What’s in Your Box
Every EB-01 box delivers 24 packs of 6 cards each — a total of 144 cards — with a compact 62-type card pool that gives meaningfully better odds for specific pulls compared to standard 121+ type booster sets.

Charlotte Flampe’s draw engine makes her an automatic inclusion in most yellow builds, while Shirahoshi’s generic blocker role means she fits virtually any yellow deck. Cavendish supports Supernova leader strategies with active DON!! manipulation.
Deck Builder’s Note
Hannyabal (EB01-021) is also competitively relevant as one of EB-01’s three Leaders, enabling Blue Purple Impel Down ramp strategies. While not tier-1 in every format, Impel Down builds have shown up at regional events.
Should You Buy EB-01?
EB-01 Memorial Collection remains one of the strongest Extra Booster products in OPTCG, with a concentrated card pool, lasting competitive relevance, and a true grail-tier chase card in the Chopper Manga Rare.
For Collectors
Verdict: Strong buy at current JPN pricing.
At ~$100 per JPN box, you’re getting a premium collector experience with genuine chase card excitement. The Chopper Manga Rare at $666 provides a grail-tier pull possibility, and the alternate art treatments across Dressrosa, Impel Down, and Wano characters create a visually stunning collection.
Collector Value
EB-01’s nostalgic appeal — the set was explicitly designed to celebrate beloved characters across multiple arcs — gives it lasting collector significance as OPTCG’s first Extra Booster product.
For Players
Verdict: Buy singles for specific competitive needs.
If you need Mr. 2 Bon Kurei, Charlotte Flampe, or Shirahoshi for your competitive decks, buying singles is more cost-effective than chasing through sealed product. However, if you play multiple archetypes (yellow, purple, Supernova), a box can provide solid deck-building material across several strategies simultaneously.
Buy Sealed
Chase Chopper Manga Rare
Compact pool = better odds
Multi-archetype value
Buy Singles
Target specific meta cards
No variance risk
Better for single-deck players
For Investors
Verdict: JPN sealed boxes have appreciated and may continue.
EB-01 JPN boxes have nearly doubled from their ¥5,280 retail price to ~$100 in two years. As the first Extra Booster in OPTCG history, this set carries “first of its kind” collector premium. Sealed product from early OPTCG sets has historically appreciated as the player base grows.
JPN EB-01 boxes have established a stable premium over retail, trading at roughly $100 — nearly double the ¥5,280 list price — reflecting steady collector demand for the game’s first Extra Booster product.
BOX Price Movement
The EB-01 JPN box has followed a classic OPTCG appreciation pattern. After an initial launch-period availability window, supply gradually tightened as production ended. The current ~$100 price point represents a mature market with consistent demand but limited new supply.
EN boxes trade at a modest premium around $120+, though the JPN-EN gap is smaller for EB-01 than for most standard booster sets. This narrower gap reflects the set’s collector-driven appeal — buyers seeking alternate arts and the Chopper Manga Rare care less about card language than visual quality.
Timing Tip
Bandai has not announced EB-01 reprints to date. Premium booster products historically become harder to find at reasonable prices as time passes, and EB-01’s “first Extra Booster” status adds scarcity premium.

First Extra Booster premium — as OPTCG’s inaugural Extra Booster, EB-01 carries collector significance that grows with the game’s expanding player base
At ~$100 for a JPN box, the entry point reflects earned appreciation rather than speculative hype. The compact 62-card pool gives better pull odds than standard sets, and the nostalgic character selection ensures broad collector appeal.
The Tony Tony Chopper Manga Rare (EB01-006) is the most valuable card at approximately $666 as of March 2026. This manga panel art treatment is estimated at roughly 1 per 4-6 cartons, making it an exceptionally rare pull.
What are the pull rates for EB-01?
Chaque boite contient 24 packs of 6 cards. You can expect roughly 4-6 SRs per box, with a chance at SR alternate arts (2-3 per box), the Mr. 2 Bon Kurei SEC (~1 per 1-2 boxes), Flampe SP (~1 per 3-5 boxes), and the Chopper Manga Rare (~1 per 4-6 cartons). Pull rates are community-estimated and not officially confirmed.
Is EB-01 worth buying in 2026?
For collectors, EB-01 remains a strong buy at the JPN price point (~$100 per box). The concentrated card pool, competitive staples, and Chopper Manga Rare chase card create a premium opening experience. For players seeking specific cards, buying singles is more cost-effective.
How many cards are in EB-01?
EB-01 contains 62 card types (61 cards + 1 DON!! card), including 3 Leaders, 28 Commons, 21 Rares, 8 Super Rares, and 1 Secret Rare. The smaller pool compared to standard 121+ type sets means better pull odds.
What is the difference between EB-01 and regular booster sets?
EB-01 is an Extra Booster — a smaller, collector-focused product with 62 card types versus 121+ in standard sets. It supplements existing deck themes (Dressrosa, Impel Down, Wano) rather than introducing entirely new mechanics. The compact pool gives better odds for specific cards.
Which EB-01 cards are good for competitive play?
The most competitively relevant EB-01 cards are Mr. 2 Bon Kurei (EB01-061) for Red Purple Law decks, Charlotte Flampe (EB01-056) for yellow decks, Shirahoshi (EB01-057) as a generic yellow blocker, and Cavendish (EB01-012) for Supernova builds.

OP-14 The Azure Sea's Seven: taux de tirage et meilleures cartes: guide
OP-14 pull rates tell an unusual story — this set actually pays you back. The Azure Sea’s Seven marks the ONE PIECE CARD GAME’s 3rd Anniversary, and BANDAI loaded this expansion with ultra-rare Gold and Silver Anniversary cards that have already shattered price records. A single Buggy 3rd Anniversary SP (Silver) commands ¥99,800 (approximately $648 at ¥154/USD) on the Japanese secondary market, making it one of the best cards in the entire OPTCG lineup.
Beyond the anniversary hype, OP-14 introduces seven Warlord-themed leaders — Mihawk, Hancock, Doflamingo, Crocodile, Jinbe, Law, and Moria — each opening new competitive archetypes that have reshaped the Japanese meta. Purple Doflamingo currently sits at the top of JPN tournament results, while Boa Hancock decks have climbed into the top 3 by win rate.
Here’s what makes this set stand out: the BOX expected value is positive. At ¥8,365 EV against a ¥5,280 retail price, OP-14 is one of the rare TCG products where the math actually works in the buyer’s favor. We’ll break down the complete pull rates for every rarity tier — including the ultra-rare 3rd Anniversary SPs that appear roughly once every 120 boxes — rank the top 10 most valuable cards with current March 2026 JPN market prices, and help you decide whether this box belongs in your collection.
Our team handles hundreds of OPTCG boxes monthly through our Tokyo warehouse, and OP-14 has been one of the most consistently requested sets since its November 2025 launch.
Key Takeaway
OP-14 delivers positive BOX EV (¥8,365 vs ¥5,280 retail), ultra-rare 3rd Anniversary Buggy chase cards worth up to ¥99,800, and three meta-defining leaders. At near-retail box pricing (~¥5,500), it’s one of the best value propositions in the current OPTCG sealed market.

OP-14 Set Overview: The Seven Warlords Take the Stage
Seven leader cards in a single booster set — OP-14 holds the OPTCG record. The Azure Sea’s Seven (蒼海の七傑) brings the iconic Seven Warlords of the Sea to the forefront, each building around a unique mechanic from Mihawk’s slash-based control to Doflamingo’s hand manipulation.
What’s New in OP-14
Three features set this expansion apart from previous boosters:
3rd Anniversary Special Cards: Ultra-rare Gold and Silver variants of Buggy with metallic foil finishes. These appear once per ~120 boxes, making them among the rarest pulls in OPTCG history.
7 Warlord Leaders: Every color gets representation — Red (Law), Green (Mihawk), Blue (Jinbe), Multi-Color (Hancock, Moria), Purple (Doflamingo), and Black (Crocodile).
6 SP Reprints with New Art: Fan-favorite cards from earlier sets — including Perona (OP06), Sugar (OP10), and Mihawk (OP12) — return with exclusive alternate illustrations by guest artists.

OP-14 The Azure Sea’s Seven — Japanese Booster Box
OP-14’s value distribution is top-heavy: the two 3rd Anniversary Buggy cards and the Mihawk Comic Parallel account for the majority of high-end value. Prices below reflect JPN secondary market data as of March 2026, sourced from SNKRDUNK, Mercari, and major card shops.
#1 — SP 3RD ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL
Buggy 3rd Anniversary SP (Silver)
~$648 · JPN: ~¥99,800
The crown jewel of OP-14. The Silver variant features a stunning metallic silver foil frame surrounding the Yonko-era Buggy illustration. At an estimated pull rate of 1 in 120 boxes, pulling this card is essentially hitting the jackpot. The Silver has maintained remarkable price stability, holding steady in the ¥95,000-100,000 range for three months. Buyback: ~¥65,800.
Rarity Check
The 3rd Anniversary SP cards in OP-14 are part of a four-set series spanning OP-11 through OP-14. Each set featured a different character in Gold and Silver variants: Luffy (OP-11), Teach (OP-12), and now Buggy (OP-14). Completing the full Anniversary collection is a serious collector’s quest.
#2 — SP 3RD ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL
Buggy 3rd Anniversary SP (Gold)
~$583 · JPN: ~¥89,800
The Gold variant shares the same ultra-rare pull rate as its Silver counterpart but trades at a slight discount. Historical data across the Anniversary series shows Silver variants consistently trading 10-15% above Gold. Both variants have held their value exceptionally well — bucking the typical 20-30% first-quarter depreciation. Buyback: ~¥59,200.
#3 — Comic SEC COMIC PARALLEL
Dracule Mihawk Comic Parallel (OP14-119)
~$510 · JPN: ~¥78,467
The World’s Greatest Swordsman gets the comic-panel treatment. At an estimated pull rate of 1 in 96 boxes, it’s rarer than the standard SEC. Mihawk’s value is driven by character popularity (consistently top 5 in One Piece polls), competitive relevance, and artistic quality. Based on similar Comic Parallels from previous sets, this type tends to stabilize then appreciate as supply dries up. Buyback: ~¥36,800.

Collector’s Pick
The “I’m Scared…♡” Hancock R Parallel (#5) is this set’s surprise performer — an R-rarity card priced above most SRs purely on character popularity and illustration quality. Watch for this pattern in future sets with strong female characters.
OP-14 Pull Rates: What Can You Expect?
The SEC rate of 1 in 3 boxes makes OP-14’s core chase cards reasonably accessible — but the ultra-rare Anniversary SPs at 1 in 120 boxes are a different story entirely.

3rd Anniversary SP — The Ultra Chase
At approximately 1 in 120 boxes, the 3rd Anniversary Gold and Silver Buggy cards are among the rarest pulls in OPTCG history. To put this in perspective:
1 carton (12 boxes): You have roughly a 10% chance of pulling any Anniversary SP
10 cartons (120 boxes): Statistically, you’d expect to see one
Cost for 120 boxes: ~¥633,600 (~$4,114) at retail price
Singles vs Chasing
If your goal is specifically to own a Buggy Anniversary card, buying the single at ¥89,800-99,800 is far more cost-effective than chasing it through box openings. The standard SEC rate of 1 in 3 boxes is solid by OPTCG standards — the core chase cards are accessible for moderate spenders.
What’s in Your Box — OP-14 Box Contents Breakdown
TCG booster boxes are entertainment products, not investments — and most boxes across any TCG return less than their purchase price in singles value. OP-14 is a notable exception.

Should You Buy OP-14?
For Collectors: Strong Yes
OP-14 is a collector’s set by design. The 3rd Anniversary cards offer a chase experience that most booster sets simply can’t match, and the positive BOX EV means your average box return exceeds the purchase price. The SP alternate art collection — six reprints with exclusive illustrations — provides a satisfying “collect them all” goal within a single set.
The Hancock SP has demonstrated particularly strong price momentum, climbing 70% from launch. Character-driven cards with strong artwork tend to hold value well in OPTCG, and Hancock’s enduring popularity across the One Piece fandom provides durable demand.
At ~¥5,500 per box, the barrier to entry is low compared to sets like OP-09 or OP-11 where boxes traded at significant premiums immediately after launch.
Collector’s Verdict
Positive EV + near-retail pricing + ultra-rare Anniversary chase + 6 collectible SPs. OP-14 checks every box for collectors. The Hancock SP’s 70% price climb since launch shows this set rewards early buyers.
For Players: Selective Buy
Three OP-14 leaders have proven tournament viability in the Japanese meta:
Doflamingo (Purple): Currently the #1 meta pick in JPN tournaments. His hand manipulation mechanic punishes overextension and enables consistent control strategies.
Boa Hancock (Multi-Color): Top 3 JPN win rate. Her leader ability supports flexible tempo play, blending pressure with disruption.
Dracule Mihawk (Green): A control-oriented slash archetype that rewards precise sequencing.
If you’re building competitive decks around any of these leaders, buying boxes for deck staples makes sense. The SRs and Rs you need are accessible at 3-4 SRs per box.
If you play a different archetype and only need 1-2 specific OP-14 cards, singles are the smarter path.

For Investors: Monitor and Position
The 3rd Anniversary cards have shown unusual price stability — three months post-launch with minimal depreciation. This pattern mirrors limited-edition collectibles more than standard TCG chase cards. As OP-14 boxes leave the print cycle and supply tightens, Anniversary card prices may strengthen further.
Timing Signals to Watch
BOX price rising above ¥7,000 (supply tightening) · EN Anniversary card prices diverging from JPN (regional arbitrage) · New Anniversary card announcements for future sets (renewed collector attention to the series).
OP-14 has fundamentally shifted the OPTCG competitive landscape. Three of its seven leaders have broken into the JPN meta, and the set’s Warlord-themed support cards have created entirely new deck archetypes.
Doflamingo — The Meta King
Purple Doflamingo (OP14-060) has claimed the #1 spot in JPN tournament results. His leader ability manipulates the opponent’s hand while deploying characters efficiently, creating a suffocating control-aggro hybrid that punishes both aggressive and passive strategies.
Key deck pieces from OP-14 include Sugar (OP14-063) as an engine piece and the Donquixote Family character package. The deck’s consistency against the previously dominant Red Zoro and Yellow Bonney archetypes from OP-13 has made it the default meta choice in Japanese locals and regionals.
Doflamingo (OP14-060) — the current #1 meta leader in JPN tournaments
Hancock & Mihawk — Competitive Contenders
Boa Hancock (OP14-041) runs an Amazon Lily swarm strategy that floods the board with low-cost characters while her leader ability generates card advantage. She currently holds a top 3 win rate in JPN events, particularly strong against midrange decks.
Green Mihawk (OP14-020) takes the opposite approach — a methodical control deck built around slash-typed characters. Mihawk decks excel at managing board states and closing games through inevitability. While not as dominant as Doflamingo, Mihawk provides a strong option for control-oriented players.
Crocodile (OP14-079) and Moria (OP14-080) round out the competitive-viable leaders, though they occupy more niche positions in the meta. Black Crocodile’s stall/denial strategy and Moria’s recursion mechanics offer counter-meta options that punish specific matchups. For the full card list and EN pricing, see OP-14 on Limitless TCG.
Meta Tip
If you’re entering the JPN competitive scene, Doflamingo is the safest build. His consistency and favorable matchup spread make him the top choice for tournament play. Hancock is the aggressive alternative with higher ceiling but more variance.

The Anniversary Buggy cards have defied the typical post-launch correction. While the Mihawk Comic Parallel followed the standard pattern of settling 15-20% below its launch peak, both Buggy variants have either held steady or appreciated — the Gold variant climbing over 12%.
Hancock’s SP card is the breakout performer, nearly doubling from launch. This rally is driven by her competitive relevance (top 3 meta deck), character popularity, and the quality of the SP illustration.
Price Context
The Mihawk Comic Parallel’s -15.2% correction from its launch peak is a standard settling pattern for premium parallels. Based on similar cards from previous sets (Luffy, Zoro Comic Parallels), these tend to stabilize and gradually appreciate once supply dries up. Prices as of March 2026. Secondary market prices fluctuate daily.
BOX Price Stability
The OP-14 BOX trades at approximately ¥5,500 in Japan — barely above its ¥5,280 list price. On eBay, JPN boxes sell for ~$77 USD including shipping estimates. This near-retail pricing contrasts sharply with recent popular sets:
OP-09 (Yamato set): Boxes peaked at 3-4x retail
OP-13 (Inherited Will): Boxes held at 1.5-2x retail early on
OP-14’s accessible pricing combined with positive EV makes it one of the better value propositions in the current OPTCG sealed product market.
Where to Buy OP-14 Japanese Booster Boxes
Japanese OP-14 boxes ship directly from Tokyo with tracked international delivery. Buying JPN versions gives you access to the same ultra-rare Anniversary cards and Comic Parallels found in JPN-exclusive openings — plus the higher print quality and textured finishes that Japanese OPTCG products are known for.

OP-14 The Azure Sea’s Seven delivers on three fronts:
Chase card excitement — The 3rd Anniversary Buggy Gold and Silver SPs are among the rarest and most valuable pulls in OPTCG, and they’ve held their value for three months straight.
Competitive relevance — Three meta-viable leaders (Doflamingo #1, Hancock top 3, Mihawk strong control) ensure the set has lasting gameplay value.
Positive BOX EV — At ¥8,365 EV against the ¥5,280 box price, the math favors the buyer.
Whether you’re chasing Anniversary cards, building a Doflamingo deck, or simply looking for a box with strong expected returns, OP-14 is one of the most well-rounded sets in the OPTCG lineup.

What are the pull rates for OP-14 The Azure Sea’s Seven?
SEC cards appear in roughly 1 out of every 3 boxes (33% rate). Standard SP cards appear approximately once every 12 boxes. The ultra-rare 3rd Anniversary Gold and Silver Buggy cards have an estimated pull rate of 1 in 120 boxes — among the rarest pulls in OPTCG history. Leader Parallels show up about once every 6 boxes. These figures are community estimates based on aggregate opening data, as BANDAI does not publish official pull rates.
What is the most expensive card in OP-14?
As of March 2026, the Buggy 3rd Anniversary SP (Silver) is the most valuable card at approximately ¥99,800 (~$648 USD). The Gold variant follows at ��89,800 (~$583), and the Dracule Mihawk Comic Parallel ranks third at ¥78,467 (~$510). Prices fluctuate on the secondary market.
Is OP-14 worth buying?
For most buyers, yes. OP-14 offers a positive BOX expected value (¥8,365 EV vs ¥5,280 retail), three competitively viable leaders, and ultra-rare chase cards. The box remains affordable at near-retail pricing (~¥5,500), making it accessible for casual and serious collectors. If you only need specific singles, buying individual cards may be more cost-effective.
How rare is the Buggy 3rd Anniversary card in OP-14?
The 3rd Anniversary Buggy cards (Gold and Silver variants) appear approximately once in every 120 boxes — that’s roughly 1 per 10 cartons. At retail price, you’d need to spend approximately ¥633,600 (~$4,114) to statistically expect one pull. This makes them among the rarest inserts in the ONE PIECE CARD GAME.
What decks are strong in the OP-14 meta?
Purple Doflamingo (OP14-060) is the #1 meta pick in JPN tournaments, excelling at control-aggro strategies. Boa Hancock (OP14-041) holds a top 3 JPN win rate with her Amazon Lily swarm deck. Green Mihawk (OP14-020) offers a competitive control option. Black Crocodile and Gecko Moria serve as niche counter-meta choices.
How many SEC cards are in OP-14?
OP-14 contains 2 SEC (Secret Rare) cards: Dracule Mihawk (OP14-119) and Crocodile (OP14-120). Both are powerful 10,000-power characters. Each SEC appears in approximately 1 out of every 3 boxes, with a specific SEC appearing roughly once every 6 boxes.
What is the OP-14 box expected value?
The estimated BOX expected value for OP-14 is approximately ¥8,365, based on current March 2026 secondary market card prices. Against a ¥5,280 box price, this represents a positive EV ratio — unusual for TCG sealed products. This figure accounts for the probability-weighted value of all rarity tiers, including the ultra-rare Anniversary SP cards. Individual box results will vary significantly due to the randomness of pack contents.

EB-04 Egghead Crisis: taux de tirage et meilleures cartes (2026)
A single Koby card is selling for over $580 — and it comes from a box that costs less than $60 at retail.
EB-04 Egghead Crisis dropped in Japan on January 31, 2026, bringing the Egghead Island arc to ONE PIECE CARD GAME in Extra Booster form. Koby’s Comic Parallel (EB04-044) sits at the top of the chase list around ¥77,700–100,000 (~$583), while a brand-new Bonney R/Y Leader card has already won a Japanese tournament with a clean 5-0 record. Six SP cards featuring artwork by Hashimoto Q and Bashikou round out a set that punches well above its weight.
Here’s the twist that most English guides miss: there is no standalone EN release of EB-04. International players will find these cards split across OP-14 (January 2026) and OP-15 (April 2026). That makes the Japanese version the only way to get the complete EB-04 experience in one product.
Below you’ll find the top 10 most valuable cards with current JPN market prices, rarity-by-rarity pull rates from community opening data, a competitive breakdown of the Bonney leader, and a clear buy recommendation for collectors, players, and investors.
Our team tracks OPTCG prices across SNKRDUNK, Mercari, and TCGPlayer daily. We’ve been monitoring EB-04 since launch week.
Key Takeaway
EB-04 is the only product with the complete Egghead Crisis card pool. No standalone EN release exists — cards are split across OP-14 and OP-15. At ~¥9,000/box with positive EV (~¥10,980), this is one of the better-value OPTCG boxes on the market right now.

EB-04 Egghead Crisis booster box (JPN)
What’s in EB-04
The card pool covers key Egghead arc moments and characters. Twenty-nine Commons and twenty-one Rares form the base, while nine Super Rares provide the competitive staples. A single SEC (Luffy EB04-061) anchors the premium tier, flanked by six Special Parallel cards from guest illustrators Hashimoto Q, Bashikou, Nijihayashi, and otton.
The standout inclusion: Jewelry Bonney as a new Leader card — the first R/Y (Red/Yellow) Bonney Leader in the game. Her tournament performance since launch has confirmed she’s more than a collector piece.
The EN Distribution Twist
Here’s something most guides don’t mention: EB-04 does not exist as a standalone English product. BANDAI has distributed the EB-04 card pool across two international booster sets:
OP-14 (released January 16, 2026) — contains a portion of EB-04 cards
OP-15 (releasing April 3, 2026) — contains the remaining EB-04 cards
For international collectors and players who want the full Egghead Crisis experience as a cohesive set, the JPN version is the only option. The SP cards, the Koby Comic Parallel, and the Bonney Leader Parallel are all packaged together in one product — something the EN market can’t replicate.

#1 — Comic COMIC PARALLEL
Koby (EB04-044)
~$583 · JPN: ~¥77,700–100,000
The undisputed chase card of EB-04. Koby’s Comic Parallel features manga-panel artwork capturing one of the most defining Egghead arc moments. At 1 in 80.7 boxes (1.24% chance), this card sits in the upper tier of OPTCG Comic Parallels — same price range as several OP-09 and OP-13 Super Parallels at a similar post-launch stage.
Rarity Check
The Koby Comic Parallel requires roughly 4-8 cartons to pull. Boxes containing the Comic Parallel typically also include a SEC card — a pattern consistent with other OPTCG Super Parallel boxes.
#2 — SP SPECIAL PARALLEL
Zeus (OP11-106)
~$226 · JPN: ~¥34,800–43,000
Zeus gets a stunning SP treatment from Hashimoto Q — one of the most sought-after guest illustrators in OPTCG. This cross-set card (originally OP-11) benefits from both the illustrator premium and Zeus’s association with Nami. The SP pull rate across EB-04 sits at roughly 1 per 9.7 boxes, spread across all six SP types.
#3 — SP SPECIAL PARALLEL
Roronoa Zoro (PRB02-006)
~$161 · JPN: ~¥24,800–48,000
Another Hashimoto Q masterpiece. Zoro cards command premium prices in every OPTCG set — he’s consistently the second or third most popular character across the franchise. For Zoro collectors, SPs from earlier sets like OP-01 have appreciated substantially over time.

For Collectors
EB-04 is a strong buy at current box prices. The Egghead arc is one of the most significant storylines in modern One Piece, and this set captures key moments and characters with guest artwork from four illustrators. Six SP cards, a Comic Parallel chase, and a new Leader Parallel give you multiple exciting pull targets.
The “no standalone EN release” factor adds a layer of exclusivity to the JPN version. International collectors who want the complete Egghead Crisis set in its original packaging won’t find it anywhere else.
Collector Strategy
Open 1-3 boxes for the experience. The positive EV at market price means you’re not overpaying for the thrill. Buy specific chase cards (Koby, Zeus, Zoro SP) as singles if you don’t hit them.
For Competitive Players
Bonney makes this set competitively relevant. The new R/Y Leader (EB04-001) already proved herself with a 5-0 finish at a Japanese Flag Ship tournament on February 21, 2026 — just three weeks after the set launched.
Her ability is high-risk, high-reward: she gains +2000 power when your life is at 1 or below, and can reduce an opponent’s character power by 1000. That creates an aggressive playstyle that supports Egghead, Land of Wano, and Impel Down archetypes.
Luffy EB04-061 (SEC) also has competitive potential as a 10-cost, 12000-power finisher with Rush. He slots into multiple Luffy-based strategies as a late-game closer.
Recommended approach: If you plan to build a Bonney deck, a box or two gives you the commons, uncommons, and rares you need as a foundation. Pick up specific SRs as singles.
For Investors
The numbers favor EB-04 right now. At a market price of ~¥9,000 (~$60), the estimated box EV sits around ¥10,980 — one of the rare cases where an OPTCG box trades below its expected value. That gap won’t last forever as the market adjusts, but it represents an attractive entry point.
Extra Boosters tend to have shorter print runs than main boosters. EB-03 Heroines demonstrated how themed Extra Boosters can hold value — particularly when they contain character-driven SP cards and limited parallels.
The JPN exclusivity angle matters: with EN cards dispersed across OP-14 and OP-15, the JPN EB-04 box is the only sealed product that contains the complete set. Historical patterns in OPTCG suggest that unique product configurations hold value better over time.
Timing Note
Monitor BOX price trajectory over the next 2-3 months. If prices remain near ¥9,000, the risk-reward profile is favorable for sealed holding. Prices may settle further — watch for your ideal entry.
Pull Rates — What’s in Your Box
EB-04 delivers a SEC in roughly 95% of boxes and an SP in about 1 in 10 — generous for an Extra Booster, though the Koby Comic Parallel remains a true lottery hit at 1.24%.

EB-04 pull rate distribution by rarity
Two things stand out about EB-04’s pull rate structure:
SEC at roughly 1 per box is generous. Compared to main booster sets where SECs can take 4-6 boxes to appear, EB-04’s Extra Booster format delivers a Secret Rare much more frequently. That SEC (Luffy EB04-061) is your value floor — every box should contain at least one meaningful hit.
The SP rate is tighter than EB-03. At 1 per 9.7 boxes across six SP types, you’re looking at roughly 58 boxes to statistically hit a specific SP. That’s where the variance lives — some buyers will pull an SP in their first box, others won’t see one in ten.

At ~¥9,000/box with an EV of ~¥10,980, the box route offers favorable math compared to most OPTCG products. The guaranteed SR floor plus the strong SEC rate mean that most boxes deliver a reasonable return in card value — with the SP and Comic Parallel as upside.
For competitive players who just need specific Rares and SRs for a Bonney deck, singles are more efficient. For everyone else, 1-2 boxes plus targeted singles for chase cards hits the sweet spot.
EB-04 Price Trends
BOX prices have settled from ¥11,000-12,000 at launch to ~¥9,000 — a healthy correction that puts EB-04 at one of the more accessible price points in recent OPTCG releases.
BOX Market Price
The EB-04 box launched at approximately ¥11,000-12,000 during the first week of February 2026. Prices corrected as initial supply constraints eased, settling to the current ~¥9,000 range on SNKRDUNK by early March.
At ¥9,000, the box is trading at 1.7x its ¥5,280 list price — a moderate premium by OPTCG standards. For comparison, EB-03 Heroines peaked above ¥18,000 before settling around ¥13,800 five months post-launch. EB-04’s lower premium reflects a less hype-driven set, but also means a more accessible entry point.
Price Snapshot
EB-04 BOX: ¥11,000-12,000 (launch week) → ~¥9,000 (March 2026). That’s a 1.7x premium over ¥5,280 MSRP — well below EB-03’s peak of 3.4x.
Card Price Movement
Top card prices have followed the standard OPTCG correction pattern:
Koby Comic Parallel peaked at an estimated ¥100,000+ in the first week and has eased to the ¥77,700–100,000 range. The wide spread reflects limited transaction volume — Comic Parallels trade infrequently given the 1-in-81-box rarity.
SP cards have shown a 15-25% correction from launch-week peaks, which is consistent with every OPTCG set we’ve tracked. Zeus and Zoro SP have found support in the ¥24,800-43,000 range, with Hashimoto Q’s illustrator premium providing a price floor.
Bonney Leader Parallel has been one of the more stable cards in the set, supported by genuine competitive demand. Tournament results tend to stabilize card prices faster than pure collector demand.
Past OPTCG Extra Boosters suggest prices typically find their floor 2-3 months post-launch, then begin a gradual recovery as sealed supply tightens. EB-04 appears to be on track with that pattern.
Where to Buy EB-04 from Japan
For international buyers, the JPN version of EB-04 is the only way to get the complete Egghead Crisis set in one product.
What to Know Before Ordering
Shipping: JPN booster boxes ship well internationally. A single box weighs approximately 250g. Most Japanese retailers offer EMS (3-5 days) or surface mail (2-4 weeks) to major markets like the US, Canada, UK, and Australia.
Customs & Import Duties: Depending on your country, you may owe import tax on orders above certain thresholds. US buyers generally face no duty on single-box orders under $800. UK and AU buyers should budget 10-20% on top of the purchase price for VAT/GST.
Etat: JPN boxes ship sealed with shrink wrap intact. Verify that any retailer you buy from guarantees shrink-wrapped, undamaged boxes — this matters for both card condition and resale value.
EB-04 Egghead Crisis earns its place as one of the stronger Extra Boosters in the OPTCG lineup. Three things define this set:
1. The Koby Comic Parallel is a legitimate chase card. At ~$583 with a 1.24% per-box pull rate, it carries real scarcity and strong character momentum. Koby’s rising status in the One Piece storyline gives this card narrative tailwinds that most Comic Parallels don’t have.
2. Competitive relevance sets EB-04 apart from typical Extra Boosters. The Bonney R/Y Leader has already proven viable at the tournament level with a 5-0 finish. Luffy EB04-061 SEC adds a legitimate finisher card. For players, this isn’t just a collector’s set.
3. The JPN version is uniquely positioned. With no standalone EN release, the JPN EB-04 box offers the complete Egghead Crisis experience in one product. At ~¥9,000 with positive expected value, the current price point represents a favorable entry.

Whether you’re chasing Koby, building a Bonney deck, or adding Hashimoto Q SPs to your collection, EB-04 delivers on multiple fronts.
The top chase card is Koby’s Comic Parallel (EB04-044) at ~$583, followed by Zeus SP (~$226) and Roronoa Zoro SP (~$161). The full top 10 includes six SP cards, a Leader Parallel, and the Luffy SEC — all with guest artwork from illustrators like Hashimoto Q and Bashikou.
What is the pull rate for Koby’s Comic Parallel in EB-04?
Community data from JPN openings estimates the Koby Comic Parallel at approximately 1 in 80.7 boxes, or a 1.24% chance per box. That translates to roughly 4-8 cartons per Comic Parallel pull. These rates are community-estimated and not officially confirmed by BANDAI.
Is there an English version of EB-04 Egghead Crisis?
No. There is no standalone English release of EB-04. BANDAI has distributed the EB-04 card pool across two international sets: OP-14 (released January 16, 2026) and OP-15 (releasing April 3, 2026). The JPN version is the only way to get the complete EB-04 set in one product.
Is the Bonney Leader from EB-04 competitively viable?
Yes. The Jewelry Bonney R/Y Leader (EB04-001) won a Japanese Flag Ship tournament with a 5-0 record on February 21, 2026. Her ability grants +2000 power when life is at 1 or below and can reduce opponent character power by 1000. She supports Egghead, Land of Wano, and Impel Down archetypes.
How many SR cards come in an EB-04 box?
JPN community opening data suggests approximately 2-3 Super Rare cards per box. Chaque boite contient 24 packs of 6 cards (144 total), with SRs appearing reliably across the 9 SR types in the set.
Is EB-04 worth buying at current prices?
At the current market price of ~¥9,000 (~$60), EB-04 has a positive estimated box EV of ~¥10,980. That’s unusually favorable for an OPTCG product. The SEC rate of approximately 1 per box provides a strong value floor, and the six SP cards offer meaningful upside.
What’s the difference between EB-04 and EB-03?
EB-03 Heroines is an all-female character set with 9 SPs and a God Pack. EB-04 Egghead Crisis focuses on the Egghead Island arc with 6 SPs, a Comic Parallel (Koby), and a new competitive Leader (Bonney). EB-03 has a higher market box price (~¥13,800 vs ~¥9,000) and a God Pack mechanic that EB-04 does not include.

The 26 Gold Foil SPR Leaders
The defining feature of EB-02 is its 26 SPR (Special Premium Rare) leader cards. These are reprinted leaders from OP-05 through OP-08 and EB-01, re-illustrated by the anime production team and finished with sharp gold foil on text and borders. Each SPR leader features a unique anime-style illustration that differs from both the original card art and any previous alternate art version.
Popular SPR leaders include Boa Hancock (OP07-038), Enel (OP05-098), Jewelry Bonney (OP07-019), Uta (OP06-001), Yamato (OP06-022), and Charlotte Pudding (OP08-058). With 26 different SPR leaders in the pool, pulling any specific one you want requires serious luck — or a willingness to buy singles.

#1 — Monkey D. Luffy Manga Rare (EB02-061)
#1 — SEC MANGA RARE
Monkey D. Luffy (EB02-061)
~$800 · JPN: ~¥120,000
The crown jewel of EB-02 depicts Gear 2 Luffy from the Enies Lobby arc in manga panel art style — the third Manga Rare featuring the series protagonist in OPTCG history. A 7-cost character with the Rush keyword, making it both a collector trophy and a competitive finisher in Green/Purple Luffy builds.
Compared to other Manga Rares in OPTCG — like the OP-01 Shanks (~¥80,000) or OP-05 Luffy Nika (~¥150,000) — EB02-061 sits comfortably in the upper tier. The Enies Lobby Gear 2 scene resonates deeply with longtime fans, and supply remains tight since Extra Boosters receive shorter print runs than mainline sets.
Rarity Check
The 26 SPR leaders in EB-02 share a combined pull rate of approximately 1 per 11 boxes. That means any individual SPR leader you want — like Hancock or Enel — appears roughly once every 286 boxes (26 × 11). Singles are the practical path for specific SPR targets.

Pull Rates — What to Expect from Your Box
EB-02 pull rates are harsh compared to mainline booster sets. Each box guarantees 3 SR cards and typically 1 parallel card, but the high-value SPR leaders and Manga Rare Luffy require significantly more investment to pull.

The Comic Parallel Lottery
The Luffy Manga Rare (EB02-061 Super Parallel version) sits at approximately 1 per 140 boxes — that translates to roughly 1 per 12 cartons. At the current box market price of ~¥14,800, chasing this card through sealed product costs an expected ¥2,072,000 (~$13,800) in boxes. Compare that to the card’s market price of ~¥120,000 (~$800), and the math is clear: buying the single is roughly 17× cheaper than chasing it through packs.
The standard SEC version (EB02-061, non-comic-parallel) at ~1 per 5 boxes is far more attainable, though it carries a much lower premium.
EB-02 pull rates per box — community estimated data
Pull Rate Context
EB-02’s comic parallel rate of 1/140 is harsher than most mainline sets (typically 1/70–1/100). Extra Boosters have shorter print runs, which concentrates the rarity. For comparison, EB-03’s God Pack lands at roughly 1/180 boxes.
What’s in Your Box — Value Breakdown
Every sealed TCG box returns less than its purchase price on average — that’s how the product model works. The value comes from the opening experience, building your collection, and the chance of pulling something extraordinary. With that context, here’s what a typical EB-02 box contains.

For collectors, the guaranteed SRs include competitive staples like Trafalgar Law (EB02-045), Yamato (EB02-006), and Vegapunk (EB02-056), each with new anime-style artwork that won’t appear in any other set. Even without a big parallel hit, these SRs add genuine cards to your collection.

Should You Buy EB-02?
EB-02 delivers strong value for collectors drawn to the anime anniversary theme and premium gold foil finishing. Competitive players also find a meta staple in the new Luffy leader. Here’s how it breaks down by buyer type.
For Collectors
The 26 SPR leaders with anime-original art and gold foil borders are unlike anything else in OPTCG. These aren’t just reprints — each card was re-illustrated by the TV anime production staff, creating a unique visual style that sits between the manga-based main set art and Toei’s animation cells. If you collect leader cards, EB-02 is the single richest source of premium leader variants in the game.
The Luffy Manga Rare (EB02-061) adds a flagship chase card that’s already become iconic. Gear 2 Luffy at Enies Lobby is one of the most beloved moments in ONE PIECE, and the manga panel art captures it perfectly.
Action: Buy 1-2 boxes for the experience, then pick up specific SPR leaders as singles. The EB-02 booster box ships from our Tokyo warehouse with tracked delivery.
For Players
Green/Purple Luffy (EB02-010) reshaped the competitive meta when EB-02 launched. The Straw Hat Crew restriction creates a unique deckbuilding challenge, and the DON manipulation mechanic enables aggressive plays that few other leaders can match. GP Luffy consistently placed in Tier 1 across both JPN and EN tournament environments throughout 2025.
Beyond the leader, EB02-061 (the SEC character Luffy with Rush) serves as a finisher in GP Luffy decks. Even the standard version (non-parallel) is a competitive staple.
Action: If you play GP Luffy, you need the leader from EB-02. The standard version is affordable (~¥500 for the non-alternate-art EB02-010). Singles are the smart path for deck building.
Collector vs Player Value
EB-02 is rare among OPTCG sets in delivering strong value for both audiences. The 26 SPR leaders satisfy collectors, while GP Luffy (EB02-010) gives competitive players a Tier 1 option — all from the same box.
For Long-Term Holders
Extra Booster sets typically receive one print run with no reprint. EB-02’s short supply, combined with the anime 25th anniversary theme that won’t be repeated, positions it for steady appreciation as sealed supply decreases. Similar past Extra Boosters like EB-01 Memorial Collection have seen box prices climb 30-50% over 12 months post-release.
Action: Monitor box prices for entry points. Current JPN market price of ~¥14,800 may represent a stable floor after initial launch volatility settled.

Competitive Impact — GP Luffy Takes the Meta
EB02-010 Monkey D. Luffy didn’t just enter the meta — it dominated. Within two weeks of the JPN release in January 2025, Green/Purple Luffy decks claimed the highest win rate in online and local tournaments, a position the archetype held for months.
How Green/Purple Luffy Works
The leader’s ability lets you deramp 2 DON and gain 2 active DON, but only if every character on your field belongs to the Straw Hat Crew type. This restriction forces pure Straw Hat builds but rewards them with explosive turn sequencing — you can play large characters earlier than the DON curve normally allows.
Key support cards from EB-02 include anime-themed Straw Hat crew members at various costs, giving the deck a smooth curve from early drops to the EB02-061 Luffy finisher with Rush.
Tournament Results
In the JPN meta (OP-10/EB-02 format), GP Luffy achieved a 55%+ win rate in its first three weeks, making it the most popular and most successful deck simultaneously. Blue Doflamingo eventually emerged as the primary counter, creating a two-deck metagame that defined early 2025 competitive play.
When EB-02 reached the EN market in May 2025, the pattern repeated. GP Luffy immediately became the most-played leader in Western tournaments, according to Limitless TCG tournament data and onepiece.gg meta tier lists.
Meta Status (March 2026)
GP Luffy remains competitive but is no longer the undisputed #1. With OP-14 and OP-15 cards in the format, the meta has diversified. However, GP Luffy still regularly tops events and remains a strong choice for competitive play.

EB-02 prices have stabilized 14 months after the JPN release. The initial launch excitement drove the Luffy Manga Rare above ¥150,000, but the market has settled into a more sustainable range.

Market Snapshot
BOX: ¥14,800 (~$99) · Luffy Manga Rare: ¥120,000 (~$800) · Top SPR: ¥26,000 (~$170). All prices stabilized since mid-2025.
Key factors supporting current prices:
Single print run — no reprint expected
Luffy Manga Rare demand remains strong among collectors and grading submitters
GP Luffy maintains competitive relevance
Anime 25th anniversary theme gives the set lasting cultural significance
What to watch: The April 2026 rotation will remove Block 1 (OP-01 through OP-04) from Standard format. Some SPR leaders reprinted from those sets (like Perona from OP-03) may see reduced competitive demand, though collector value should hold.

Where to Buy EB-02 — JPN Booster Box
The JPN version of EB-02 Anime 25th Collection offers the original anime-artist illustrations with Japanese text — the authentic version of this anniversary celebration. Our EB-02 boxes ship from Tokyo with tracked international delivery.
EB-02 Anime 25th Collection stands out in the OPTCG lineup for three reasons:
The Luffy Manga Rare (EB02-061) is one of the most valuable and visually striking cards in the game, depicting Gear 2 Luffy at Enies Lobby in manga panel art
26 gold foil SPR leaders create the richest collection of premium leader variants in any single OPTCG product
GP Luffy (EB02-010) delivered a meta-defining leader that remains competitive over a year after release
The box commands a premium at ~¥14,800 (~$99), and pull rates for SPR leaders (1/11 boxes) and the Manga Rare (1/140 boxes) are steep. For targeted purchases, singles are the rational choice. For the collector experience of cracking anime anniversary packs with a shot at gold foil SPR leaders, EB-02 delivers something no other set offers.
What are the pull rates for EB-02 Anime 25th Collection?
Each box guarantees 3 SR cards and roughly 1 parallel card. SPR leaders appear at approximately 1 per 11 boxes, the SEC Luffy at roughly 1 per 5 boxes, and the Manga Rare Comic Parallel Luffy at approximately 1 per 140 boxes. These are community-estimated rates based on opening data, not officially confirmed by BANDAI.
Is the EB-02 booster box worth buying?
It depends on your goals. For collectors who value the anime 25th anniversary art and gold foil SPR leaders, the box offers a unique opening experience. For competitive players, the GP Luffy leader (EB02-010) is a meta staple available more affordably as a single. The box market price of ~¥14,800 (~$99) is roughly 2.8× the original retail price.
What is the most expensive card in EB-02?
The Monkey D. Luffy Manga Rare (EB02-061, Super Parallel) leads at approximately ¥120,000 (~$800) on the Japanese market as of March 2026. The EN version trades even higher on TCGPlayer, reflecting strong international demand.
How many SPR leaders are in EB-02?
EB-02 contains 26 SPR (Special Premium Rare) leader cards, each reprinted from previous sets (OP-05 through OP-08 and EB-01) with new anime-original illustrations and gold foil finishing.
When did EB-02 release in English?
The English version of EB-02 Anime 25th Collection released on May 9, 2025, approximately four months after the Japanese release on January 25, 2025.
Is the EB02-010 Luffy leader still competitive?
Yes. Green/Purple Luffy (EB02-010) dominated the meta through 2025 and remains a strong competitive choice in March 2026, though the metagame has diversified with OP-14 and OP-15 additions. The standard (non-alternate-art) version of EB02-010 is affordable at under ¥500.
Will EB-02 be reprinted?
Extra Booster sets typically receive a single print run with no reprint. Once current sealed stock is sold, prices for sealed boxes are expected to appreciate over time, similar to EB-01 Memorial Collection’s trajectory.
OP-01 Romance Dawn: meilleures cartes, taux de tirage et valeur de la box (2026)
What are the OP-01 Romance Dawn best cards actually worth right now — and is this set still worth chasing nearly four years after launch?
Romance Dawn launched the entire One Piece Card Game in July 2022 and introduced the game’s first Manga Rare, first Leader Alternate Arts, and a card pool that has only gained value as sealed supply disappears. English boxes now trade above $1,700, Japanese boxes sit at ¥15,000+, and the Shanks Manga Rare alone commands close to $1,500 ungraded.
This guide ranks the top 10 cards by current market price using data from PriceCharting and Japanese sources like onepiece-card-atari.jp, breaks down pull rates from JPN opening data, and gives you a clear buy-or-pass verdict based on your goals. Our team ships hundreds of OPTCG boxes from Japan weekly, and we track both markets daily.

Why Romance Dawn Still Matters
Romance Dawn occupies the same position in OPTCG that Base Set holds in Pokémon: it’s the origin point. Every card carries historical weight as part of the game’s first print run. The set is long out of print, and sealed supply shrinks every time a collector cracks open a box.
Three factors sustain collector interest. First, the Shanks OP01-120 Manga Rare was the first card in the game to use original manga panel artwork — a mechanic BANDAI expanded across every subsequent set. Second, several OP-01 Leader Parallels remain iconic display pieces and casual-play favorites. Third, the OPTCG player base has grown exponentially since 2022, meaning far more collectors now chase a fixed and declining pool of cards.
Top 10 Most Valuable OP-01 Romance Dawn Cards
The Shanks Manga Rare leads the pack at $1,483, with the Luffy Leader Parallel close behind at $1,162 — making OP-01’s top two cards among the most valuable standard pulls in the entire game.
Prices as of March 2026. Market prices fluctuate — check PriceCharting for real-time data.
#1 — Shanks Manga Rare
#1 — Manga MANGA RARE
Shanks (OP01-120)
~$1,483 · JPN: ~¥133,000 (~$880)
The crown jewel of Romance Dawn and arguably the most iconic card in the entire One Piece Card Game. This was the first card to use original manga panel artwork — a scene from one of the most emotionally charged moments in the series. At $1,483 ungraded, a PSA 10 pushes past $4,900, with recent graded sales ranging from $3,900 to $6,400. The JPN SP version actually trades at a discount to the EN Manga Rare — a reversal of the typical JPN premium, driven by intense international collector competition for low-print-run English copies.
Why Do EN Cards Cost More Than JPN for OP-01?
Unlike most recent sets where JPN versions carry a premium, several OP-01 EN cards dramatically outprice their JPN counterparts. The reason: EN Romance Dawn had a much smaller print run relative to the now-massive international collector base. The Luffy Leader Parallel shows the most extreme gap at 6x, while Shanks and Law also carry significant EN premiums.
#2 — Monkey D. Luffy Leader Parallel
#2 — L LEADER PARALLEL
Monkey D. Luffy (OP01-003)
~$1,162 · JPN: ~¥27,300 (~$181)
The protagonist’s first Leader card in alternate art form has climbed steadily to become the second most valuable standard pull in the set. At $1,162, the EN version commands roughly 6x the JPN price — one of the largest JPN-to-EN gaps in any OPTCG set. The card remains a centerpiece for Luffy-themed deck builders in casual play and is frequently the first “grail” card newer collectors target.
#3 — Trafalgar Law Leader Parallel
#3 — L LEADER PARALLEL
Trafalgar Law (OP01-002)
~$221 · JPN: ~¥12,800 (~$85)
Law’s Leader Parallel carries both competitive heritage and collector appeal. The JPN version at ¥12,800 trades at roughly 40% of the EN price, following the same EN-premium pattern. Law has remained relevant across multiple competitive formats since launch, keeping demand steady even as the card ages.
Cards #4–9
4
Doflamingo L
$207 · JPN: ¥5,380
EN premium exceeds 5x. Renewed collector interest thanks to strong alternate art and enduring character popularity.
5
Zoro L
$138 · JPN: ¥17,467
Rare case where JPN nearly matches EN price. Features the Rush keyword — a competitive staple in early formats.
6
Crocodile L
$67
Villain collector favorite with striking alternate art. Character nostalgia keeps this card in steady circulation.
7
Nami R
$63 · JPN: ¥13,467
JPN costs more than EN here — driven by strong domestic demand. R rarity that punches far above its weight on character popularity alone.
8
Yamato SEC
$53 · JPN: ¥4,230
One of only two SECs in the set. Massive fan following ensures consistent baseline demand.
9
Kaido L
$52
Essential for Kaido-themed decks. Lower character popularity keeps the price modest compared to Luffy and Shanks.
Honorable Mention: #10 Boa Hancock — SR Parallel — $50
Hancock’s SR Parallel (OP01-078) holds its value through sheer character popularity. JPN price: ¥5,314 (~$35). For an SR-rarity pull, this is solid sustained demand.
For collectors chasing the genesis set of OPTCG, Romance Dawn remains the single most important release — but at $1,700+ per EN box, the right approach depends on your goals.
For Collectors: The Genesis Set Experience
Every card in this set carries the weight of being “the first.” A sealed box is a time capsule from the game’s origin, and sealed supply only gets scarcer. The opening experience itself — chasing the first-ever Manga Rare, pulling Leader Alternate Arts that launched the entire parallel system — is something no later set can replicate.
Action: A sealed JPN box (~¥15,000 / ~$99) offers the best opening value. For specific chase cards like the Shanks Manga Rare, buying singles from TCGPlayer is more cost-effective than chasing pulls.
For Players: Limited but Iconic
Most OP-01 cards have been power-crept by newer sets. Several Leaders still see casual play, but tier-1 competitive relevance has moved on. The primary value here is deck-building nostalgia and the prestige of running original-print cards.
Action: Buy singles for the specific cards you need. Opening boxes for playables is not cost-effective at current prices.
For Investors: The Base Set Thesis
Romance Dawn is the strongest investment case in all of OPTCG. First sets in successful TCGs historically appreciate over long timeframes — Pokémon Base Set being the clearest parallel. OP-01 sealed boxes have risen from retail to $1,700+ (EN Wave 2) within four years, with Wave 1 Blue Bottom boxes clearing $5,500.
Action: Sealed boxes represent the highest-conviction long-term hold. Monitor PriceCharting for entry points during periodic market corrections.

OP-01 Pull Rates Breakdown
Pulling a Shanks Manga Rare from a sealed box is roughly a 1-in-12 shot — making every box opening a genuine gamble with massive upside.
Pull rates are community-estimated from JPN opening reports. Not officially confirmed by BANDAI.
Estimated pull rates per box based on JPN community opening data
Key Stat
Your guaranteed value floor in every box comes from 3–4 SR pulls plus 1–2 SR Parallels. That baseline sits around ¥2,000–4,000 (~$13–27) before you factor in any Leader Parallel, SEC, or SP hits.
What’s in Your Box
In virtually every TCG, the expected value of opening a sealed box lands below the box’s market price — and OP-01 is no exception at current price levels. The value proposition is the opening experience, the guaranteed SR slots, and the chance at a chase card that far exceeds the box cost.
SEC and SP pulls are excluded from the base calculation due to extreme variance. Hitting a Shanks SP adds ¥133,000+ to a single box.
At the original retail price of ¥5,940, OP-01 was a positive-EV opening — a rarity in the TCG world. At current JPN box prices (¥15,000+), the math favors singles for most buyers. The key is variance: most boxes land between ¥3,000–8,000 in card value, but the SR guaranteed slots provide a reliable floor, and a single SEC or SP hit can push returns well past ¥50,000.

Source: PriceCharting. Wave 1 (Blue Bottom) carries a first-printing premium over Wave 2 (White Bottom).
Wave 1 vs Wave 2
EN OP-01 had two print runs. Wave 1 (identifiable by a blue bottom on the box) was the initial, lower-volume run. Wave 2 (white bottom) was a larger reprint. The card contents are identical, but Wave 1 carries a “first edition” collector premium — similar to 1st Edition Base Set in Pokémon.
JPN vs EN Card Prices
One of the most interesting dynamics in OP-01 is the price inversion. For most recent OPTCG sets, JPN cards carry a premium due to earlier release and higher print quality. But for OP-01, several EN cards command dramatically higher prices.
Nami’s R Parallel stands out as the notable exception — a card where domestic Japanese collector demand drives the JPN version above EN.
Price Inversion at a Glance
The Luffy Leader Parallel shows the most extreme EN premium at +542%. For most OPTCG sets, JPN commands higher prices — OP-01 is one of the few sets where EN consistently outprices JPN on chase cards.
What’s Driving These Prices
Three factors sustain OP-01’s trajectory:
Supply contraction: OP-01 is long out of print with no reprint planned. Every opened box permanently reduces sealed supply
Player base expansion: The OPTCG community has grown substantially since 2022, creating more collectors chasing a fixed card pool
Genesis set recognition: First-set status carries cultural weight in the TCG hobby. As long as OPTCG thrives, OP-01 benefits from this halo effect
Looking ahead, the trajectory depends on the game’s continued growth. If BANDAI maintains momentum through strong new releases and organized play support, OP-01 cards should continue to hold or move higher. Periodic market corrections may offer entry points for patient buyers.
Where to Buy OP-01 Romance Dawn
For international buyers, JPN Romance Dawn boxes offer the most accessible entry point at ~¥15,000 (~$99) — a fraction of EN box prices.
Buying JPN OP-01 from Japan
Japanese boxes feature higher print quality with distinct card texture and foil patterns that collectors prize. Key considerations:
Shipping: Most Japan-based sellers offer tracked international shipping. Factor ¥1,500–3,000 for shipping costs
Customs: US buyers can import up to $800 duty-free per shipment. Check your country’s thresholds
Authenticity: Counterfeit OP-01 products exist at these price levels. Buy from established sellers with verifiable inventory
Wave 1 vs Wave 2 (EN only): Blue bottom = Wave 1 ($5,560). White bottom = Wave 2 ($1,787). Card contents are identical — you’re paying for print run scarcity
Resealed boxes: At these prices, counterfeit shrink wrap is a real concern. Only buy from trusted sellers
Card condition: For high-value singles, request close-up photos. EN Wave 1 and Wave 2 have different centering characteristics
Counterfeit Warning
At $1,700+ per EN box, counterfeit OP-01 products are a real risk. Always verify shrink wrap integrity, box weight, and seller reputation before purchasing. JPN boxes at ~$99 carry lower counterfeit risk due to lower price incentive.
The Bottom Line
OP-01 Romance Dawn is the cornerstone of the One Piece Card Game, and its market position only strengthens as the game grows.
Three takeaways:
The top 2 cards alone exceed $2,600 in combined EN value — the Shanks Manga Rare ($1,483) and Luffy Leader Parallel ($1,162) anchor a set with deep chase card appeal
JPN boxes at ~¥15,000 (~$99) offer the best entry point for collectors who want the opening experience without the $1,700+ EN price tag
The JPN vs EN price inversion creates a unique market dynamic — JPN cards offer better value for collecting, while EN versions of top cards carry investment premiums
From chasing the Shanks Manga Rare to evaluating sealed boxes as a long-term hold, OP-01 delivers on the promise of a true first edition.
What is the most expensive card in OP-01 Romance Dawn?
The Shanks Manga Rare (OP01-120) is the most valuable standard pull at approximately $1,483 ungraded as of March 2026. A PSA 10 graded copy sells for $4,900+, with recent sales ranging from $3,900 to $6,400. Tournament promo versions like the Roronoa Zoro Top 8 (OP01-025) can exceed $3,800, but these are not pullable from sealed product.
Is OP-01 Romance Dawn worth buying in 2026?
For collectors, Romance Dawn is the most historically significant OPTCG set and holds strong long-term appeal — JPN boxes at ~¥15,000 (~$99) are the most accessible entry. For competitive players, most cards have been power-crept, so buying singles is more practical. For investors, sealed EN boxes have shown consistent four-year appreciation from retail to $1,700+, carrying the “genesis set” thesis similar to Pokémon Base Set.
What are the pull rates for OP-01 Romance Dawn?
Based on Japanese opening data, expect 3–4 Super Rares per box, with Leader Parallels appearing roughly every 2–3 boxes. Secret Rares land approximately every 4–6 boxes, and the SP (Shanks) is estimated at roughly 1 per 12–15 boxes. These rates are community-estimated and not officially confirmed by BANDAI.
What is the difference between Wave 1 and Wave 2 Romance Dawn boxes?
English OP-01 has two printings. Wave 1 (blue box bottom) was the initial smaller run, now trading at $5,560. Wave 2 (white bottom) was a larger reprint, trading at $1,787. The card contents are identical — the price difference reflects print run scarcity and “first edition” collector value.
Should I buy Japanese or English OP-01?
JPN boxes (~$99) are dramatically cheaper than EN ($1,700+) and feature higher print quality with distinct texture and foil. However, several EN top cards — particularly Shanks and Luffy — command 2x to 6x premiums over JPN equivalents due to lower EN print runs. For opening and collecting, JPN offers far better value. For targeting specific high-value singles as investments, EN versions of the top 3 cards have shown stronger price growth.

OP-15 Taux d'Obtention, Meilleures Cartes et Valeur de Boîte, Guide 2026
The Enel Comic Parallel launched at ¥100,000 on February 28. Three days later, it’s trading at ¥150,000–160,000 (~$970–$1,030). That’s a 50–60% climb in under a week — and it hasn’t slowed down.
OP-15 “Adventure on KAMI’s Island” is the Skypiea set that OPTCG collectors have been requesting since the game launched. Enel, the Skypiea showdown, Devil Fruit–patterned Special Cards — it’s all here. And based on the first weekend of Japanese tournament results, Purple Enel is already the most-winning Leader in the format.
We’ve been tracking OP-15 from the first SNKRDUNK transactions on launch day. Our team ships OPTCG boxes from Tokyo weekly, and the demand spike for this set hit harder than anything since OP-13. Below is what the numbers actually say — pull rates, card prices, box value, and what Purple Enel’s tournament dominance means for card values.
Key Takeaway
Enel Comic Parallel rose from ¥100,000 to ¥160,000 in 3 days — the opposite of most chase cards, which peak on launch day. Purple Enel is dominating JPN tournaments. OP-15’s 3 guaranteed SRs cover ¥4,500–6,900 of the box cost, with SEC and SP as pure upside.

OP-15 Set Overview — Adventure on KAMI’s Island
OP-15 covers the Skypiea arc with six new Leaders, a “Low DON” mechanic built around Sky Island cards, and a Devil Fruit Pattern SP series — six characters, each featuring their actual Devil Fruit’s swirl texture. Beyond Skypiea, the set pulls in Dressrosa (Lucy, Rebecca) and East Blue (Don Krieg) support.
Skypiea isn’t just nostalgia. It’s one of the arcs that defined early One Piece — the first time the Straw Hats faced something genuinely godlike. Enel’s lightning powers, the Maxim, the golden bell — these moments have been requested as card art since the game’s launch. OP-15 finally delivers them.
The set’s mechanical identity centers on “Low DON.” Sky Island cards trigger bonus effects when your DON!! count sits at 6 or fewer — the inverse of every other strategy in the game. Instead of racing to 10 DON, you’re optimizing around restraint. Enel’s Purple Leader enforces this by capping his DON deck at 6 cards total (standard is 10) and adding only 1 per turn. Then he channels up to 4 rested DON onto a single Character for massive single-target bursts.
The SP series uses a “Devil Fruit Pattern” design — each of the six characters (Hancock, Luffy, Law, Enel, Sabo, Newgate) features their specific Devil Fruit’s swirl texture across the card face. Collecting all six creates a unified display set that previous OPTCG releases haven’t offered.

Low DON burst control
Enel is the headline. His DON deck holds 6 cards instead of 10. Each turn, he adds up to 1 DON from his deck, then attaches up to 4 rested DON to a single Character. Sky Island support cards trigger at 6 or fewer total DON, creating a self-reinforcing loop: stay lean, hit hard, repeat. Japanese tournament results from the first weekend already show Enel taking the most first-place finishes in the OP-15 format.
Brook is the first Straw Hat Crew member to serve as a Leader in OPTCG. His Green/Black build mills aggressively, then unlocks power thresholds at 15, 20, and 30+ cards in trash. A player named Yodamen piloted Brook to 1st place in a 3v3 team event on March 1 with a 6-1 record — proof that this archetype works beyond theory.
Monkey D. Luffy Leader Parallel (Yellow) — Sky Island protection
Luffy (Yellow) protects Sky Island characters with 6000+ base power from removal. When an opponent’s effect would remove one, you pull from the top of your Life instead. A defensive shell for the Sky Island board.

#1 — SEC COMIC PARALLEL
Enel (OP15-118)
~$970–1,030 · JPN: ¥150,000–160,000
Launch day: ¥100,000. Day three: ¥150,000–160,000. The Enel Comic Parallel is appreciating post-launch — the opposite of what most chase cards do. Panels from Volume 30 show Enel at peak menace during the Skypiea climax. The relief texturing on the lightning effects adds a physical quality that flat images don’t capture. Pull rate: approximately 1 per 6 cartons (72 boxes), or ~0.84% per box.
Rarity Check
The Enel Comic Parallel appears in approximately 1 out of every 72 boxes (6 cartons) — making it one of the rarest pulls in the entire OPTCG.
Why it’s rising, not falling: Most Comic Parallels peak on day one and correct downward as supply enters the market. Enel is moving the other direction because initial supply was absorbed faster than expected. Skypiea has deep emotional resonance across both Japanese and international fanbases, and Enel’s villain status gives him a collector profile that doesn’t depend on competitive play relevance.
Risk Factor
Restocks will increase supply. The typical 4–6 week correction pattern hasn’t kicked in yet. Buyers at ¥160,000 should plan to hold through any near-term pullback.
#2 — SP DEVIL FRUIT PATTERN
Boa Hancock
~$335 · JPN: ¥50,000–53,000
The Mero Mero no Mi swirl wrapping around Hancock’s illustration. Hancock is the most consistent high-value SP character in OPTCG — her cards from OP-03, OP-07, and OP-12 have all held premium pricing regardless of competitive viability. The SP slot hits at roughly 7.78% per box, but pulling specifically Hancock requires closer to 1 in 77 boxes. Card Rush buyback: ¥45,000 (~85% of market).
#3 — SP DEVIL FRUIT PATTERN
Monkey D. Luffy
~$245 · JPN: ¥36,000–38,000
Luffy’s Gomu Gomu no Mi texture across a dynamic action pose. Every Luffy parallel sells — his character demand is the broadest of any One Piece figure, spanning collectors, players, and casual fans. Card Rush buyback at ¥33,000 (87% of market) confirms the confidence.
#4–5 Standout Rare Parallels
#4 Gum Gum Golden Rifle — Alt Art [R/P] {OP15-116}: ~$150–210 · JPN: ¥23,000–32,800. SR-tier pricing for an R card. Luffy’s golden fist slamming through the thunderclouds during the Skypiea climax — full-bleed illustration with premium foil on the golden arm. Buyback at ¥20,000 shows a notable gap, suggesting emotion-driven premium that may compress.
#5 Jamboule — Alt Art [R/P] {OP15-077}: ~$155–173 · JPN: ¥24,000–26,800. Enel’s thunder dragon attack in dramatic full-art. The widest market-to-buyback gap on this list (¥24,000+ vs ¥12,000–20,000) — shops aren’t as confident long-term. A card to watch but not to chase at peak pricing.
#6–10 at a Glance
#6 Trafalgar Law — Devil Fruit Pattern [SP] (~$130–160): Ope Ope no Mi texture. Law consistently places in the top half of SP value across sets. Buyback ¥20,000 — solid floor.
#7 Enel — Devil Fruit Pattern [SP] (~$84–140): Goro Goro no Mi design. Three Enel cards in the top 10 — that’s how deep Skypiea collector demand runs. Price range is wide, suggesting the market hasn’t found equilibrium yet.
#8 Sabo — Devil Fruit Pattern [SP] (~$71): Mera Mera no Mi. Sabo’s collector base is real but smaller than Luffy, Hancock, or Law. Market and buyback both at ¥11,000 — perfectly flat, no speculation.
#9 Edward Newgate — Devil Fruit Pattern [SP] (~$65): Gura Gura no Mi on Whitebeard. At ¥10,000, this is the SP floor. Buyback matches market. Stable but not exciting.
Roronoa Zoro Alt Art SR Parallel — tournament staple
#10 Roronoa Zoro — Alt Art [SR/P] {OP15-113} (~$14–70): The widest price spread on the list reflects the gap between different marketplace averages. Zoro’s buyback runs extremely close to retail at shops catering to tournament players. This is a deck staple, not a display piece.
The Panoramic SEC Pair
Enel SEC Parallel — part of the panoramic Skypiea showdown pair
OP-15’s two Secret Rare Parallels — Enel (OP15-118) and Luffy (OP15-119) — connect into a single panoramic scene when placed side by side. The Skypiea showdown rendered as two-card art. Grading services see increasing demand for matched-condition pairs, and the display value of a PSA 10 pair exceeds the sum of individual slab prices.
The Devil Fruit Pattern SP series is what makes OP-15 special for collectors. Six characters, each featuring their actual Devil Fruit texture — Mero Mero no Mi (Hancock), Gomu Gomu no Mi (Luffy), Ope Ope no Mi (Law), Goro Goro no Mi (Enel), Mera Mera no Mi (Sabo), Gura Gura no Mi (Newgate). Displayed together, they form a cohesive set that no previous OPTCG release has offered.
The Enel Comic Parallel is the crown chase — appreciating post-launch, first-ever Enel Comic Parallel, deep character demand. The panoramic SEC pair adds another display target for collectors who frame or slab their top pulls.
Collector Timing
Open a JPN box for the experience — 3 guaranteed SRs give you a baseline. For Devil Fruit Pattern SPs, watch for the 4–6 week correction window. Hancock and Luffy will hold best; Sabo and Newgate may soften to more accessible prices.
For Players — Purple Enel Is Dominating
This isn’t speculation — Purple Enel (OP15-058) posted the most first-place finishes during the first weekend of the OP-15 format in Japan. The Low DON archetype works. Early results show Enel decks stripping opponent resources while resolving 6-cost Enel characters for board control.
Brook (Green/Black) is also performing. Yodamen took Brook to 1st place in a 3v3 event on March 1 with a 6-1 record. The trash synergy shell is real, not theoretical. Lucy (Red/Blue) and Yellow Luffy also posted top finishes — OP-15 has injected genuine diversity into the competitive meta.
For EN players: the English release on April 3 means these archetypes will enter your local meta within weeks. Building knowledge now gives you a head start.
Your move: Pre-order EN boxes. Target Zoro SR/P and Nami SR as singles — competitive demand for these will climb as deck lists circulate post-EN release. If you can’t wait, JPN singles work for testing builds before EN stock arrives.
For Investors — The OP-09 / OP-13 Pattern
Context matters here. Look at what happened with the last two major JPN sets:
OP-09 (Aug 2024): JPN BOX launched at ¥8,000–9,000, settled near retail within 3 weeks due to reprints. But the EN version? Launched at $58, peaked at $725 — a +1,150% run over 13 months.
OP-13 (Aug 2025): JPN BOX launched at ¥15,625 (3x retail). EN version went from $120 retail to $700+ peak — +296%.
OP-15’s JPN BOX is currently at ¥7,600–9,300 — well below OP-13’s launch premium. The EN version is priced at $119.99 with per-customer limits of 2 boxes at some retailers. If OP-15 follows the OP-09/OP-13 trajectory on the EN side, early boxes could appreciate significantly.
Your move: The JPN side has restock risk. The EN side is where the OP-09/OP-13 pattern played out. Watch EN pre-order availability — limited allocation + tariff uncertainty could tighten supply faster than expected.

Pull Rates — What’s in Your Box
The guaranteed 3 SRs per box give every opening a solid value floor. Beyond that, the upside comes from variance: pulling a SEC or SP flips the math entirely.

Two stories here. BOX prices are softening as restocks hit retail — the SNKRDUNK floor dropped from the ¥10,000 range to ¥7,600. Meanwhile, the Enel Comic Parallel is climbing because initial pulls got absorbed faster than supply could replace them.
How Previous Sets Moved
OP-09 “Emperors in the New World” (Aug 2024):
JPN BOX: ¥8,000–9,000 launch → settled to ~¥5,750 (near retail) within 3 weeks
EN BOX: $58 launch → $725 peak (Jan 2026) → currently $80–110
Top chase (Gol D. Roger Gold SP): ¥500,000–648,000
OP-13 “Carrying on His Will” (Aug 2025):
JPN BOX: ¥15,625 launch (3x retail) → ¥16,800–22,800 by early 2026
EN BOX: $120 retail → $702 peak (Jan 2026)
Top chase (Luffy Red SP): ¥359,000 → ¥498,000 by Nov 2025 (+33%)
Pattern: JPN boxes face restock pressure within 2–4 weeks. EN boxes, when supply is constrained, can run 3–6x from retail over 6–12 months. The EN appreciation pattern has been more reliable than JPN for sealed box value.
What This Means for OP-15
OP-15’s JPN BOX is already softening toward the ¥7,600 floor — only 1.4x retail. Mild compared to OP-13’s 3x. If reprints continue, JPN boxes could approach retail within a month, similar to OP-09.
The EN release on April 3 is the bigger variable. At $119.99 with some retailers limiting purchases to 2 boxes per customer, plus tariff uncertainty flagged by US retailers — the supply dynamics could mirror OP-13’s EN trajectory.
The Enel Comic Parallel’s rising trend is unusual and likely unsustainable at this slope. Expect a correction once more cartons are opened and supply increases. But the floor should be well-supported: Enel is a permanent A-tier character in One Piece fandom, the Comic Parallel is a one-print chase, and the art quality justifies premium pricing.
Timing Options
JPN box now — ¥7,600 is reasonable for the opening experience. Wait 2–4 weeks for SP singles correction. Pre-order EN (April 3, $119.99) if allocation is tight. Wait for EN restocks if you’re patient.
OP-15 isn’t just a collector set. The first weekend of Japanese tournaments already showed significant meta shifts.
Purple Enel — The Format’s New Boss
Enel Leader Parallel (Purple) — most first-place finishes in the OP-15 format
Tournament Result
Purple Enel (OP15-058) posted more first-place finishes than any other Leader during the opening weekend of OP-15 format in Japan.
The archetype works by stripping opponent resources early, then dropping 6-cost Enel characters mid-to-late game for board control. The Low DON mechanic is genuinely new to OPTCG — with a 6-card DON deck and only 1 DON added per turn, Enel players attach up to 4 rested DON to a single Character for concentrated burst power.
For context: Yellow Enel (the pre-existing version from earlier sets) had 231 tournament placings and 13 wins during the OP-06 through OP-09 era. In OP-15 format, Yellow Enel hasn’t featured prominently — Purple Enel has replaced it as the definitive Enel archetype.
Brook — Straw Hat Trash Synergy
Brook Leader Parallel — the first Straw Hat Crew Leader in OPTCG
Brook (OP15-022, Green/Black) is the first Straw Hat Crew Leader. The deck mills aggressively, then triggers power thresholds: 15+ cards in trash for initial boosts, 20+ for stronger effects, 30+ for late-game dominance.
Tournament result: Yodamen piloted Brook to 1st place at a 3v3 team event on March 1, finishing 6-1. The deck ran a full suite of OP-15 Straw Hat characters plus cross-set support (EB02-017, PRB02-006, OP13-118). This isn’t a fringe brew — it’s a structured archetype with proven results.
Other Performing Leaders
Red/Blue Lucy (OP15-002): Multiple top finishes. Dressrosa aggro-midrange gained new tools.
Yellow Luffy (OP15-098): Won a 188-player Standard Battle. Sky Island protection + high-power characters.
Boa (Yellow/Blue) from OP-14: Still performing. OP-15 didn’t kill the existing meta — it expanded it.
Key Competitive Singles
Roronoa Zoro SR/P {OP15-113}: The most in-demand competitive card. Buyback nearly matches market price at tournament-focused shops. Yellow deck staple.
Nami SR {OP15-086}: Sky Island support that boosts consistency in the Luffy Leader shell. Part of Yodamen’s Brook deck list — cross-archetype utility.
Rebecca SR {OP15-053}: Dressrosa Control gains a mid-game option layer for the Lucy Leader game plan.

What are the pull rates for OP-15 Adventure on KAMI’s Island?
Based on Japanese community opening data: the Comic Parallel (Enel SEC/SP) hits at approximately 0.84% per box — roughly 1 per 6 cartons (72 boxes). Devil Fruit Pattern SPs appear at ~7.78% per box total (~1 in 13 boxes for any SP; ~1 in 77 for a specific SP). Chaque boite contient 3 confirmed Super Rares. SECs are estimated at 1 per 4–6 boxes. Gold DON!! Super Parallel at ~1 per 12 boxes. These rates are community-estimated and not officially confirmed by Bandai.
What is the most expensive card in OP-15?
The Enel Comic Parallel (SEC/SP) {OP15-118} — trading at ¥150,000–160,000 (~$970–$1,030 USD) as of March 3, 2026. This card has appreciated roughly 50% from its ¥100,000 launch price on February 28. It features iconic manga panels from One Piece Volume 30 and is the rarest pull in the set at ~1 per 72 boxes.
Is OP-15 worth buying?
For collectors: strong yes. The Devil Fruit Pattern SP series (6 cards), the Enel Comic Parallel, and the panoramic SEC pair make OP-15 one of the most collector-friendly sets in OPTCG. For players: Purple Enel is already dominating Japanese tournaments in the first weekend. The 3 guaranteed SRs cover ¥4,500–6,900 of the ¥7,600–9,300 box cost, with SEC and SP pulls as pure upside.
When does OP-15 release in English?
April 3, 2026. The English version combines OP-15 with EB-04 Extra Booster content, totaling 159+ card types. Pre-release events start March 27, 2026. Retail price is ~$119.99 per box (24 packs + 1 bonus pack). Some retailers are limiting purchases to 2 boxes per customer.
How many secret rares are in OP-15?
Two: Monkey D. Luffy (OP15-119) and Enel (OP15-118). Both have Secret Rare Parallel versions that connect as a panoramic artwork when placed side by side — depicting the climactic Skypiea battle.
What is the Enel Comic Parallel worth?
The Enel Comic Parallel launched at ¥100,000 on February 28 and rose to ¥150,000–160,000 (~$970–1,030 USD) within three days. It’s the first-ever Comic Parallel for the Enel character, with an estimated pull rate of ~0.84% per box (~1 per 72 boxes). Card Rush buyback sits at ¥120,000–135,000.
What leaders are in OP-15?
Six Leaders: Lucy (Red/Blue, Dressrosa), Don Krieg (East Blue), Rebecca (Dressrosa), Brook (Green/Black, Straw Hat Crew — the first Straw Hat Leader in OPTCG), Monkey D. Luffy (Yellow, Sky Island), and Enel (Purple, Sky Island). Enel’s Low DON mechanic and Brook’s trash synergy are the competitively significant additions — both have already posted first-place tournament finishes in Japan.

#1 — Manga GOLD SUPER PARALLEL
Gol D. Roger (OP09-118)
~$2,987 · JPN: ~¥448,000
The Pirate King’s Gold Super Parallel is the crown jewel of the entire One Piece Card Game. Roger’s iconic manga panel rendered in gold-textured foil finish — the first and only GSP in the game’s history. Community opening data estimates the GSP appears in roughly 1 out of every 72 boxes. Buyback prices from Japanese card shops sit around ¥320,000, indicating strong dealer confidence.
Rarity Check
The Gold Super Parallel appears roughly once every 72 boxes (6 cases). At the current box price, that’s ~¥648,000 spent on average to pull one — meaning the card’s ¥448,000 market price actually represents a discount versus pulling it yourself.
#2 — Manga MANGA RARE
Monkey D. Luffy (OP09-119)
~$1,253 · JPN: ~¥188,000
Luffy’s Manga Rare captures one of the most emotionally charged panels from the series. Japanese buyback prices sit around ¥85,000–¥128,000 depending on the shop. On the English side, this card trades even higher at approximately $2,036 due to lower EN print volume — a rare case where EN surpasses JPN pricing.
#3 — Manga MANGA RARE
Buggy (OP09-051)
~$787 · JPN: ~¥118,000
The surprise of the set. Buggy becoming an Emperor was already a fan-favorite moment — this card crystallizes it beautifully. The EN version trades at approximately $914, reflecting the EN scarcity premium. Buggy’s unique position in One Piece lore drives collector demand that transcends competitive play.

For Collectors
OP-09 is a must-buy. No other set offers four Manga Rares plus a Gold Super Parallel. The 2nd Anniversary theming, the Four Emperors showcase, and Roger’s GSP debut make this a landmark release. Even if you don’t pull a Manga Rare, the SP cards (Nami, Boa Hancock, Zoro-Juro) feature exceptional artwork that holds value in the ¥23,000–¥35,000 range.
For Competitive Players
OP-09 introduced six new leaders, two of which defined the meta for months: Shanks (board-wide power reduction) and Marshall D. Teach (On Play shutdown). The set also provided key support for top-tier decks like Blue Doflamingo. Standout staples include Trafalgar Law, Benn Beckman, and Gum-Gum Giant — all tournament-relevant to this day.

Every OP-09 box guarantees 4–5 Super Rares, forming the value floor. You have roughly a 1-in-3 chance of a SEC per box, and about a 1-in-6 chance per case of a Manga Rare. The Gold Super Parallel? That’s a 1-in-72 box longshot — the kind of pull that makes opening videos go viral.
Box Value Breakdown
OP-09’s aggregate box expected value of approximately ¥11,675 exceeds the ~¥9,000 market price — a positive EV driven by the extreme top-end value of Manga Rares and the Gold Super Parallel.

At ~¥11,675 expected value vs ~¥9,000 market price, OP-09 is one of the rare TCG products where the probability-weighted math works in your favor. Source: onepiece-card-atari.jp (7 retailer aggregate).
The ¥11,675 average is heavily pulled up by the ultra-rare Roger GSP and Manga Rares. Most individual boxes will return ¥5,000–¥10,000 from guaranteed SRs and the occasional SEC. When you do pull a Manga Rare or higher, a single card can be worth 20–80 times the box price. Your SR guaranteed slots provide a reliable floor — everything above that is upside.

Correction Is Standard
Initial hype inflates Day-1 prices, and the market finds equilibrium over 2–4 months. What’s notable about OP-09 is how high the equilibrium sits. Roger’s GSP has barely moved from ¥448,000, and Manga Rares stabilized in the ¥100,000–¥190,000 range — well above comparable cards from other sets.
The combination of collector appeal (GSP, 4 Manga Rares), competitive relevance (meta-defining leaders still in rotation), and the 2nd Anniversary scarcity factor positions OP-09 as one of the strongest long-term holds in the One Piece Card Game.
Deck Impact — How OP-09 Changed the Meta
OP-09 introduced six new leaders and a wave of support cards that fundamentally shifted how competitive One Piece is played.
Marshall D. Teach (OP09-081, Black) introduced a control mechanic that changed the rules of engagement. His On Play shutdown forces opponents to rethink turn sequencing — an effect so disruptive that certain matchups become unwinnable without specific answers. Teach decks consistently occupy top positions on tournament tier lists.
Shanks (OP09-001, Red) brought board-wide power reduction that dismantles aggressive strategies, pushing the meta toward more resilient, value-oriented builds.
Buggy (OP09-042) and Luffy (OP09-061) also debuted as leaders, with Luffy seeing play in purple-based strategies. Meanwhile, Blue Doflamingo gained key support from OP-09, keeping that deck at the top.
Must-Have Staples
Trafalgar Law — Best search card for Straw Hat/Heart Pirates. Benn Beckman — K.O. immunity in Shanks builds. Gum-Gum Giant — Premier defensive event for purple decks. Sanji — Rush-down pressure from turn one.

The Bottom Line
OP-09 Emperors in the New World earns its reputation as one of the best sets in the One Piece Card Game. Three things make it stand out:
Unmatched chase cards — The Gold Super Parallel Roger (¥448,000) and four Manga Rares give OP-09 the highest top-end value of any standard booster set.
Positive box EV — At ~¥11,675 against a ~¥9,000 market price, OP-09 is one of the rare TCG products where the math works in your favor.
Lasting competitive impact — Shanks and Teach continue to define tournament metagames, keeping demand strong across both collector and player markets.

Based on community data: 4–5 SRs per box (guaranteed), a SEC roughly every 2.9 boxes, an SP every 12.1 boxes, a Manga Rare approximately every 18 boxes, and the Gold Super Parallel Roger roughly once every 72 boxes (6 cases). Bandai does not publish official pull rates.

Is OP-09 worth buying in 2026?
OP-09 remains one of the best sets to buy. Box expected value (~¥11,675) exceeds market price (~¥9,000). Four Manga Rares and the GSP make it uniquely appealing for collectors, while meta-defining leaders keep it relevant for players.
How rare is the Gold Roger in OP-09?
The Gold Super Parallel appears in approximately 1 out of every 72 boxes (6 cases). At ¥448,000, it’s a genuine grail card — most collectors pursue it through singles rather than trying to pull it.
How many Manga Rares are in OP-09?
OP-09 contains four Manga Rares: Gol D. Roger, Monkey D. Luffy, Shanks, and Marshall D. Teach. Additionally, Buggy features an Alternate Art Manga variant. This is the highest number of Manga Rares in any single set.
What decks use OP-09 cards?
Two meta-defining leaders: Marshall D. Teach (Black, control) and Shanks (Red, board suppression). Key staples like Trafalgar Law, Benn Beckman, and Gum-Gum Giant see play across multiple competitive archetypes.
Should I buy Japanese or English OP-09?
For collectors, JPN is the better value — roughly $60 vs $100+ for EN, with higher collector premiums due to superior print quality. For competitive players needing tournament-legal English cards, EN may be necessary.
