As of November 9, 2026, the official sites date the Japanese edition of EB-06 Saturday, January 30, 2027 and the English edition Friday, January 29, 2027. The Japanese pack is ¥240 (tax included) for 6 cards; the English edition is USD $4.99 per pack (MSRP), and its pack image prints “12-Card Booster Pack”. Both editions list 67+1 types.
Extra Booster EAST BLUE [EB-06] was announced on the official Japanese site on November 6, 2026, and its product page went up on all three official sites: Japanese, Asia English and English (North America and Europe). The figures on those pages are close but not the same, and the differences decide which edition a collector ends up buying. This guide sets the two editions side by side, then puts EB-06 into the record of every earlier Extra Booster, where the gap between Japan and the English release has changed a great deal.
We sell the Japanese edition of One Piece sealed product from Tokyo. All official product images on this page are Japanese-edition images; no English-edition image is used.
- Japanese edition: Saturday, January 30, 2027, ¥240 per pack (tax included), 6 carte per pack, 67+1 types, as of November 9, 2026.
- English edition: Friday, January 29, 2027, USD $4.99 per pack (MSRP), 67+1 types; its pack image prints “12-Card Booster Pack”. The English pre-release date is not published.
- The latest Japanese Extra Booster box, EB-05 Heroines Edition vol.2, is currently listed at ¥13,200 (~$86) (¥154 = $1).
EB-06 Japanese vs English: The Official Rows
![EAST BLUE [EB-06] Japanese booster pack — official product image (Bandai)](https://samuraiswordtokyo.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/img_eb_img_item01_73d4174f8ec7-3.webp)
Each official site runs its own product page for EB-06. The Japanese page is titled エクストラブースター EAST BLUE【EB-06】; the English and Asia English pages use EXTRA BOOSTER -EAST BLUE- [EB-06]. Unlike EB-05, the set name carries no “ONE PIECE” prefix on any of them. Read row by row, as of November 9, 2026:
| Row | Japanese edition (Japanese site) | English edition (English site) |
|---|---|---|
| Name | エクストラブースター EAST BLUE【EB-06】 | EXTRA BOOSTER -EAST BLUE- [EB-06] |
| Release | Saturday, January 30, 2027 | Friday, January 29, 2027 |
| Pre-release date | — | Not published |
| Price per pack | ¥240, tax included (manufacturer’s suggested price) | USD $4.99 (MSRP) |
| Cards per pack | 6 (page text) | Not in page text; the pack image prints “12-Card Booster Pack” |
| Types | 67+1 (全67種+1種) | 67+1 types in total |
| Packs per box | 24, per the official box image | 24, per the official display image |
| Rarity breakdown | Not published | Not published |
| Box price | Not published | Not published |
The Asia English site sits between the two. It prints January 30, 2027, the same day as Japan, and lists 6 carte per pack and 67+1 types, but shows no price. Buyers in Southeast Asia should check that page too; this guide keeps the comparison to the Japanese and English editions.
The core announcement, with the theme copy, is summarised in the EB-06 EAST BLUE release date, price and details article; our EB-06 hub article is the EB-06 EAST BLUE complete guide.
Release Dates: Saturday in Japan, Friday in English
The two dates are one day apart and belong to different editions. The Japanese page prints 2027年1月30日(土), and January 30, 2027 is a Saturday. The English page prints January 29, 2027, which is a Friday. Neither page links the two, and they should not be merged into a single “late January” figure when the day matters.
The English page adds a note that cards in the product are tournament legal from the pre-release date in your region, but it does not print that pre-release date. So for the English edition, as of November 9, 2026, there is a release date and no pre-release date.
The one-day gap is not new. It matches what happened with EB-05 in October 2026 and with OP-18, whose English edition is dated Friday, November 20, 2026 against the Japanese Saturday, November 21, 2026. Our reading is that for EB-05, OP-18 and EB-06 the English edition is dated the Friday before the Japanese Saturday. That is a pattern across three products, not a Bandai rule. The OP-18 case is set out in OP-18 English release date vs Japan.

Pack Size: 6 Cards vs the 12-Card Print
The Japanese page states the pack size in text: 1パック:カード6枚, six carte per pack. The English page states no pack size in text. The figure for the English edition comes from its pack image, which prints “12-Card Booster Pack”. That is an English-edition print only, and this guide does not use the English images.
The same difference appears on an older official page. EB-01’s English product page says 12 carte per pack, while the Japanese EB-01 page says 6. The facts here are the two printed numbers. What the extra cards in an English pack are, and how the English set is structured against the Japanese one, is not explained on the EB-06 pages, so this guide does not explain it either.
What the difference does change is how you compare packs. A Japanese pack at ¥240 and an English pack at $4.99 are not the same unit if one holds 6 cards and the other is printed as 12. Comparing per pack without that note misleads. The general differences between the two pack formats are covered in One Piece Card Game booster packs: Japanese vs English.
Both editions do agree on the box. The Japanese box image prints 「24パック入り」 (24 packs), and the English display image prints 24 packs per box. Neither product page states the pack count in text, and neither prints a box price.
Price: ¥240 vs $4.99
The Japanese price is a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of ¥240 per pack, tax included. The English price is an MSRP of USD $4.99 per pack. Neither page prints a box price, and this guide does not build one from the pack price.
The two prices are stated on different terms: the Japanese page says tax included, the English page says MSRP. Combined with the different pack sizes, a straight currency conversion of the two pack prices tells you little about value.
The history is more useful. In Japan, EB-01 to EB-04 were ¥220 per pack, and EB-05 and EB-06 are ¥240. In English, EB-01 was $4.49 and every Extra Booster since EB-02 has been $4.99. So EB-06 keeps both editions’ most recent price, with no change from EB-05. The full price line is in our article One Piece Extra Booster pack price history.

Japanese vs English Across EB-01 to EB-05
The one-day gap of EB-06 is easiest to read against the whole Extra Booster line. The table uses the official Japanese and English product pages for each set. The day counts are calculated from those dates.
| Set | Japanese release | English release | Gap (days) | JP / EN pack price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Memorial Collection [EB-01] | Saturday, January 27, 2024 | May 3, 2024 | English 97 days later | ¥220 / $4.49 |
| Anime 25th collection [EB-02] | Saturday, January 25, 2025 | May 9, 2025 (legal date May 16, 2025) | English 104 days later | ¥220 / $4.99 |
| ONE PIECE Heroines Edition [EB-03] | Saturday, October 25, 2025 | February 20, 2026 | English 118 days later | ¥220 / $4.99 |
| EGGHEAD CRISIS [EB-04] | Saturday, January 31, 2026 | No standalone English release; combined OP14-EB04 (January 16, 2026) and OP15-EB04 (April 3, 2026) | Not comparable | ¥220 / $4.99 (combined sets) |
| Heroines Edition vol.2 [EB-05] | Saturday, October 31, 2026 | October 30, 2026 | English 1 day earlier | ¥240 / $4.99 |
| EAST BLUE [EB-06] | Saturday, January 30, 2027 | Friday, January 29, 2027 | English 1 day earlier | ¥240 / $4.99 |
For the first three Extra Boosters, the English edition followed Japan by roughly three to four months. EB-04 broke the pattern: the English site sold it only inside two combined sets. EB-05 and EB-06 close the gap almost entirely, with the English edition dated one day before Japan.
Two practical consequences follow. A collector who used to buy Japanese to get a set months early no longer gains time on EB-05 or EB-06. And the set sizes still differ between editions on some older pages: EB-02’s English page shows 87 card types without the “+1”, while the Japanese page prints 87+1. For EB-06, both pages print 67+1.
![ONE PIECE Heroines Edition [EB-03] Japanese booster pack — official product image (Bandai)](https://samuraiswordtokyo.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/img_eb_img_item01_1caeca9e9a6f.webp)
The EB-03 gap, the longest in the table, is covered in detail in EB-03 release date Japan and English. For the main booster line, the same comparison for OP-17 is in OP-17 Japanese vs English.
EB-05: The Most Recent Pattern
![ONE PIECE Heroines Edition vol.2 [EB-05] Japanese booster pack — official product image (Bandai)](https://samuraiswordtokyo.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/img_eb_img_item01_43fa11ca6c15.webp)
EB-05 is the closest model for reading EB-06’s two editions. Its Japanese page dates it Saturday, October 31, 2026 at ¥240 per pack with 6 cards and 75+2 types, and it carries a full rarity row: Leader 7, Common 29, Rare 21, Super Rare 9, Secret Rare 1, Special Card 8, DON!! 2. Its English page dates the English edition October 30, 2026 at $4.99 and notes the cards are tournament legal after 7 days.
EB-05’s Japanese page also showed the steps a release takes on the official site: a Premium Bandai lottery sale ran October 30 – November 5, 2026, and the official news published the EB-05 parallel cards on October 30, 2026, one day before release. Those are EB-05 facts. Nothing on the EB-06 pages says the same steps will follow, and as of November 9, 2026 no EB-06 event, lottery or card reveal is announced.
The EB-05 edition comparison is in EB-05 English release vs Japanese, and the timeline approach for EB-06 is in our article EB-06 road to release.
What Neither Edition Has Published
The official pages list no rarity row yet, in either language, so every “EB-06 pull rate” you see online is unofficial. The blanks are the same on both sides as of November 9, 2026:
- Rarity breakdown. No Leaders, Special Cards, Secret Rares or DON!! cards are listed.
- Card list. The official card list has no EB-06 series; no card number has been published.
- Characters. No character is named. The official copy promises “many beloved characters from the early days”, and the pack art shows Luffy in front.
- Box price. Not printed on any of the three official sites.
- English pre-release date. Not printed.
Because both editions share the same 67+1 headline, it is tempting to assume their card lists will match. Neither page says so, and EB-02 shows that the headline numbers on the two sites have not always matched. Our article EB-06 pull rates: what is confirmed covers how to read a rarity row, if and when one appears.
Why Collectors Choose the Japanese Edition
This section is our reading, from selling the Japanese edition to overseas collectors, not an official statement.
- The card names and text are Japanese. For a set themed on the East Blue, “the sea where the adventure began”, many collectors want the cards in the language of the original series.
- The format is fixed and documented. The Japanese page states 6 carte per pack in text, and the Japanese box image prints 24 packs, the same as EB-03, EB-04 and EB-05.
- EB-04 exists as its own box in Japanese. The English site sold EB-04 only inside the combined OP14-EB04 and OP15-EB04 sets, so a collector who wants every Extra Booster as a single-set box looks at the Japanese line.
- Timing no longer decides it. With EB-05 and EB-06 dated a day apart, the choice is about the product, not about getting it months earlier.
East Blue characters already have a deep record in the Japanese card list. Roronoa Zoro, for example, has 85 printings across 38 distinct card numbers whose name is exactly ロロノア・ゾロ on the official card list as of November 9, 2026. Those are existing cards, not EB-06 cards. The whole cast is mapped in the East Blue saga collector guide, and set-by-set card lists are on our One Piece card list page.

If you want the Japanese edition of the newest Extra Booster in the ¥240 format, our pick is the EB-05 box. If you prefer the other 67+1 set, the EB-04 Egghead Crisis Box option is currently listed at ¥14,515 (~$94) (update: currently sold out — restock requests via Quick Order).

Domande frequenti
When is the EB-06 English release date?
The official English site dates the English edition of EB-06 Friday, January 29, 2027, as of November 9, 2026. The English pre-release date is not published. The Japanese edition is dated Saturday, January 30, 2027, one day later.
How many cards are in an EB-06 pack in Japanese and English?
The Japanese product page states 6 carte per pack. The English page states no pack size in text, but the English pack image prints “12-Card Booster Pack”. The two figures belong to different editions.
How much is an EB-06 pack in Japan and in English?
The Japanese edition is ¥240 per pack, tax included, as the manufacturer’s suggested price. The English edition is USD $4.99 per pack as its MSRP. Neither official page prints a box price.
Do the Japanese and English editions of EB-06 have the same cards?
Both pages print 67+1 types, but neither has published a rarity row or a card list as of November 9, 2026, and neither says the two card lists match. EB-02’s English page shows 87 types where the Japanese page prints 87+1.
Why was the English gap so long for earlier Extra Boosters?
The official pages do not give a reason. They only give the dates: English EB-01, EB-02 and EB-03 followed Japan by 97, 104 and 118 days, EB-04 had no standalone English release, and EB-05 and EB-06 are dated one day earlier in English.
Does the shop sell the English edition of EB-06?
No. We sell Japanese-edition One Piece sealed product from Tokyo, and we do not list EB-06 in either edition. Sourcing requests go through Quick Order.
