Which Japanese One Piece Box Should I Buy?
OP-17, EB-05 or EB-06: what each box is, when it ships, and who it suits.
If you want to open a box now, buy OP-17 The World's Strongest Warriors: it's out and in stock. If you collect the series' heroines, pre-order EB-05 Heroines Edition vol.2 for October 2026. If you play older Leaders or love the early arcs, EB-06 is expected in January 2027. All three are Japanese editions with 24 packs per box.

Buy OP-17 If…
You want cards now. OP-17 is the newest main set and the only one of the three you can open today. It has the biggest chase list, including two Secret Rares and four manga treatments, and it introduces Rocks D. Xebec as a Leader. Read our OP-17 set guide.
Pre-order EB-05 If…
You collect a character rather than chase a set. Heroines Edition vol.2 follows EB-03 (October 2025) and focuses on the series' female characters. Extra Boosters are themed, so if Nami, Robin or Hancock are why you collect, this is the box built for you. Read our EB-05 Heroines Edition vol.2 guide.
Pre-order EB-06 If…
You play older Leaders or love the early arcs. Bandai describes EB-06 as bringing back nostalgic characters and strengthening Leaders from older sets, plus one new Leader. Its Japanese date and configuration aren't confirmed yet; we'll update this guide when they are.
Chasing one specific card? A booster box doesn't guarantee any particular card. If you want one card, buy the single. See booster box, promo pack or single card.
Japanese or English?
All three boxes here are Japanese editions. Japanese sets release first (OP-17 came out six days before the English edition), and Japanese packs are the version most Japanese-market collectors price against. For the full comparison, read Japanese vs English One Piece TCG.
