EB-05 Heroines Edition Vol. 2: Release Date, Cards and What to Expect

The Heroines series is returning to the One Piece Card Game.

ONE PIECE Heroines Edition Vol. 2 [EB-05] is the fifth Extra Booster expansion and once again puts the women of the One Piece universe at the center of the set.

Bandai has confirmed a new Nico Robin Leader card, Leader parallels and special cards for the set, while the wider card lineup brings together characters including Nami, Boa Hancock, Jewelry Bonney, Shirahoshi, Nefeltari Vivi and Rebecca. One Piece

Here is everything collectors and players need to know about EB-05 Heroines Edition Vol. 2.

EB-05 Heroines Edition Vol. 2 Release Date

The English version of EB-05 Heroines Edition Vol. 2 is scheduled for October 30, 2026.

The Japanese release follows on October 31, 2026, with the official Japanese One Piece website confirming the October 31 launch and dedicated release events running from that date. One Piece

For English collectors, EB-05 arrives only a few weeks before OP-18 The Dominance of God, creating a particularly strong end-of-year release period for the One Piece Card Game.

What Is an Extra Booster?

EB-05 is an Extra Booster, rather than a numbered main expansion such as OP-17 or OP-18.

Extra Boosters generally focus more closely on specific themes, characters or archetypes while adding cards that can strengthen previously released decks.

In this case, the entire identity of the product is built around the heroines of One Piece.

For collectors, that means a concentration of character-focused artwork and alternate treatments.

For players, EB-05 provides additional support for multiple existing archetypes rather than focusing exclusively on one new storyline.

Nico Robin Gets a New Leader Card

The headline Leader of EB-05 is Nico Robin.

Bandai officially unveiled Robin’s new Leader card at ONE PIECE DAY’26 together with its parallel version. One Piece

The card is identified as Nico Robin [EB05-010], with revealed information showing a Green/Yellow Leader using the Wisdom attribute and strategies involving Life cards and Character reactivation. PlayShop

This makes EB-05 especially interesting because Nico Robin also receives one of the major collector cards in OP-18 immediately afterward.

For Robin fans, late 2026 is therefore one of the most significant periods the character has had in the One Piece Card Game.

Which Characters Are Featured in EB-05?

Heroines Edition Vol. 2 brings together women from across different periods of the One Piece story.

Prominent characters associated with the set include:

Nico Robin
Nami
Boa Hancock
Jewelry Bonney
Shirahoshi
Nefeltari Vivi
Rebecca
Nico Olvia

This broad character selection allows the set to cover Straw Hat characters, princesses, pirates and other major figures from throughout the series.

Alternate-Art Leader Cards

One of the major collector features of EB-05 is its selection of alternate-art Leader cards.

Recent revealed information identifies parallel Leader artwork for characters including Nefeltari Vivi, Nami, Shirahoshi, Boa Hancock, Rebecca, Jewelry Bonney and Nico Robin. PlayShop

Leader parallels have traditionally been among the most visually distinctive cards in One Piece Card Game sets, and the Heroines theme gives Bandai an opportunity to use artwork very different from standard booster expansions.

Special Heroines Cards

Collectors can also expect premium character-focused card treatments.

The original Heroines concept became particularly recognizable for its emphasis on character artwork, so EB-05 continues that collector-focused direction.

What Is Inside an EB-05 Booster Box?

The English EB-05 Heroines Edition Vol. 2 Booster Box contains:

24 booster packs
12 cards per booster pack
288 cards across the sealed box

Cards are randomly inserted.

Opening a booster box does not guarantee any specific character, rarity, parallel artwork, Secret Rare or Special Card.

Why EB-05 Is Different From a Main Booster Set

The main reason to pay attention to EB-05 is that it does not need to cover the entire One Piece universe evenly.

Instead, it can focus directly on some of the franchise’s most popular female characters.

That makes it particularly appealing to collectors who follow specific characters such as Nami, Robin, Boa Hancock or Vivi, while still giving players additional cards for existing decks.

It also arrives at an interesting moment in the release calendar.

EB-05 releases in late October, followed by OP-18 The Dominance of God in November, allowing cards and themes introduced in one product to potentially interact with the rapidly expanding 2026 card pool.

EB-05 vs OP-18

Collectors choosing between the two late-2026 products are looking at very different sets.

EB-05 Heroines Edition Vol. 2 focuses heavily on character artwork, female characters and Extra Booster support.

OP-18 The Dominance of God is a full main expansion introducing Franky as a Leader, God’s Knights, Nico Robin’s major chase card and special Yoshitaka Amano illustrations.

For Nico Robin collectors in particular, both releases are relevant.
