In short

  • Yu-Gi-Oh! still releases in Japan first: every OCG main booster since 2025 that has an English date is dated in the TCG nine to fifteen weeks after Japan.
  • The ONE PIECE gap has all but closed — about three months in early 2025, six days for OP-17, and for EB-05 and OP-18 the English date is one day before the Japanese one.
  • Dragon Ball Fusion World lands in English within about a week of Japan; BRIGHTNESS OF HOPE [FB11] is the exception at five weeks.
  • EGGHEAD CRISIS [EB-04] has no standalone English print — its code appears in the English OP-14 and OP-15 boosters, OP14-EB04 and OP15-EB04.
  • Next in Japan: EB-05 and Yu-Gi-Oh! IMMORTAL PHOENIX on 31 October 2026, OP-18 on 21 November 2026, Dragon Ball FB12 on 12 December 2026.

How to read this calendar

One row per Japanese release, across three brands. The left side is the Japanese edition: the set's English name, its Japanese title, the set code you will find on the box and on the cards, and the day it went on sale in Japan. The right side is the English print — its name and release date — where one exists.

Every Japanese date comes from the official Japanese product pages: onepiece-cardgame.com, yugioh-card.com/japan and dbs-cardgame.com/fw/jp. Every English date comes from the official English sites of the same publishers — en.onepiece-cardgame.com, yugioh-card.com/en and dbs-cardgame.com/fw/en. Sets without an official date are not listed. For Pokémon, see the Japanese Pokémon release calendar.

ONE PIECE CARD GAME: the gap is closing

In early 2025 an English ONE PIECE booster followed its Japanese original by about three months: A Fist of Divine Speed [OP-11] came out on 1 March 2025 in Japan and on 6 June 2025 in English. Through 2026 the gap shrank to weeks, then days — OP-17 was released on 22 August 2026 in Japan and on 28 August in English. For EB-05 and OP-18, the English date is a Friday, one day before the Japanese Saturday release.

One extra booster has no standalone English print: EGGHEAD CRISIS [EB-04]. On the official English site, its code appears in the names of the English OP-14 and OP-15 boosters — OP14-EB04 and OP15-EB04.

Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG: Japan first, the TCG later

The Japanese OCG releases a main booster four times a year, on a Saturday in January, April, July and October. Every one since 2025 that has an English date is dated in the TCG nine to fifteen weeks after its Japanese release, under the same name or nearly — DUELIST ADVANCE became Duelist's Advance. The special packs and sets in the calendar are Japanese OCG releases; no English product of the same name is listed on the official English site, so they have no English date here.

Dragon Ball Super Card Game Fusion World: almost together

Fusion World boosters go on sale in Japan on a Saturday and in English within days. From Saiyan's Pride [FB08] in December 2025 to Cross Force [FB10] in June 2026, the English date was the Friday before the Japanese one. Brightness of Hope [FB11] is the exception: 12 September 2026 in Japan, 16 October 2026 in English.

What is coming

Next in Japan: ONE PIECE Heroines Edition vol.2 [EB-05] and Yu-Gi-Oh! IMMORTAL PHOENIX on 31 October 2026; The Dominance of God [OP-18] on 21 November; Dragon Ball REACH THE GOD [FB12] on 12 December; the Yu-Gi-Oh! THE DARK SIDE OF DIMENSIONS 10th ANNIVERSARY MOVIE BOX on 19 December. Into 2027, Yu-Gi-Oh! has dated PRIDE AND SOUL for 23 January and RARITY COLLECTION -CLIMAX SCENE EDITION- for 27 February.

Questions

Good to know

Where do these dates come from?
Japanese dates from the official Japanese product pages: onepiece-cardgame.com, yugioh-card.com/japan and dbs-cardgame.com/fw/jp. English dates from the official English sites: en.onepiece-cardgame.com, yugioh-card.com/en and dbs-cardgame.com/fw/en. If a date cannot be confirmed on an official page, it is not listed.
Why is the English date sometimes earlier than the Japanese one?
Japanese releases fall on a Saturday; the English dates are usually a Friday. For EB-05 and OP-18, and for several Fusion World boosters, that Friday is the day before the Japanese Saturday. These are the dates the publishers give on their own sites.
What happened to EGGHEAD CRISIS [EB-04] in English?
It has no standalone English print. On the official English site its code appears in the names of the English OP-14 and OP-15 boosters: OP14-EB04 and OP15-EB04.
Why do some Yu-Gi-Oh! packs have no English date?
The calendar lists an English date only where the official English site shows a product of the same name. The special packs and sets listed are Japanese OCG releases.
Can I buy a Japanese box before the English set exists?
Yes — for Yu-Gi-Oh! that is the normal order. Japanese boxes in the PulloraX vault are factory-sealed and ship tracked from Japan.
Will the calendar include the next sets?
As soon as they have an official release date on the publisher's Japanese site. Names that circulate before that are left out on purpose.
