Only the official English site, en.onepiece-cardgame.com, links the tournament to EB-05. The event page describes it as a special tournament "to celebrate the release of EB-05" .

Which Leaders are allowed in Heroines Battle Vol.2?
Heroines Battle Vol.2 allows only the Heroines Leader cards named on the official event page. Alternate-art versions of those Leaders are also allowed. All other Leaders are excluded. The format is Standard Regulation Constructed, so the rest of each deck still has to meet the current Standard rules . Players should check the official Heroines Battle Vol.2 event page for the full eligible list before building a deck.
The event page names these characters among the eligible Heroines Leaders :
- Belo Betty
- Uta
- Perona
- Yamato
- Vinsmoke Reiju
- Jewelry Bonney
- Boa Hancock
- Carrot
- Charlotte Pudding
- Lim
- Nico Robin
- Sugar
- Shirahoshi
- Nami
- Koala
- Charlotte Linlin
- Nefeltari Vivi
- Rebecca
This list gives character names only, not every card number. A single character can have more than one Leader card, so the names above are not a complete count of eligible cards. The official page lists the specific eligible cards, so check it before building a deck. Do not assume that every Leader with one of these character names qualifies.
The alternate-art rule only covers different printings of a Leader that is already on the list. Players can use a parallel or alternate-art printing of an eligible Leader. An alternate art does not make an unlisted Leader eligible .
The event page says games follow the official rules published on the official website. Photocopied cards are not allowed . Stores host each tournament locally, so players should also confirm any store-specific details with their host store. The Leader restriction itself is set by the official event page.
What are the Heroines Battle Vol.2 prizes?
Heroines Battle Vol.2 has two prize tiers, and both use the same card. The official event page lists EB03-006 Nami as the participation prize and a separate winner version of EB03-006 Nami as the winner prize . The details are on the official Heroines Battle Vol.2 event page.
- Participation prize: EB03-006 Nami .
- Winner prize: a winner version of EB03-006 Nami .
The official site also hosts two separate image files for the card. One is named EB03-006.webp and the other EB03-006_win.webp . This supports the event page's statement that winners get a different version from the participation card. The page does not say how the cards are packaged. Players should not assume the Vol.2 prizes come in a sealed pack.
The prize setup differs from the first Heroines Battle. That event used packs. Participants got a Heroines Battle Pack with one card per pack, chosen from three types: Nico Robin, Nami or Jewelry Bonney. Winners got a Winner Pack with the same three card options . You can check this on the first Heroines Battle event page. The "Heroines Battle Pack" image in the official image list is hosted under that first event's page, not the Vol.2 page.
- Vol.1 (February 27 – March 22, 2026): one card per pack from three possible cards, in participation and winner packs .
- Vol.2 (November 6 – December 6, 2026): one named card, EB03-006 Nami, with a separate winner version .
Bandai has not published how many prize cards each store receives. Stores host the events locally, so players should ask their host store how it will hand out prizes.
How do players and stores register through TCG+?
Bandai's TCG+ app handles registration for Heroines Battle Vol.2, for both stores and players. Stores apply through TCG+ to get tournament kits. Players can apply from October 23, 2026 onwards . Each event is run by a local store, so you can only play if a store near you takes part.
The steps are set out on the official Heroines Battle Vol.2 event page. The stores and the players each have a part to play:
- Stores: apply through TCG+ to get the tournament kits that let them hold the event .
- Players: sign up through TCG+, and also check directly with the store that is holding the event .
- Timing: player sign-ups open October 23, 2026. Events run from November 6 to December 6, 2026 .
The official page explains why signing up in the app may not be enough:
"Stores manage event registration in different ways," — Bandai, ONE PIECE CARD GAME official event page (source: en.onepiece-cardgame.com)
In practice, a store may use the TCG+ list alone, or it may also take sign-ups in person or set its own player limit. The official page does not say which stores do what. Ask your store about its rules before the event.
The event is open in North America, Europe, Oceania, Latin America and the Middle East . Bandai has not published how many stores will take part or how many events will run in each region. To find out whether a store near you is hosting, look in TCG+ once sign-ups open on October 23 or ask the store directly.
When does EB-05 launch, and when are its cards tournament legal?
EXTRA BOOSTER -ONE PIECE HEROINES EDITION vol.2- [EB-05] comes out in English on October 30, 2026, according to the official English product page . The same page says cards become tournament legal 7 days after release .
The official English page lists these product details:
- Release date: October 30, 2026
- Price: USD $4.99 per pack
- Card types: 75+2 in total
- Tournament legality: 7 days after release
Inference, not an official statement: if you add 7 days to the October 30 release, EB-05 cards should become legal around November 6. That is the first day of the Heroines Battle Vol.2 period, November 6 – December 6, 2026 . Neither the event page nor the product page says EB-05 cards can be used at the event. Before you build a deck around new EB-05 cards, check with your store.
| Date | Milestone | Status |
|---|---|---|
| October 23, 2026 | Heroines Battle Vol.2 player applications open | Official |
| October 30, 2026 | EB-05 English release | Official |
| ~November 6, 2026 | EB-05 cards tournament legal (7-day rule) | Our calculation, not an official date |
| November 6 – December 6, 2026 | Heroines Battle Vol.2 event period | Official |
The official Asia-English site has its own EB-05 page. A search summary gave its date as October 31, 2026. We have not opened that page to check, so treat the date as unverified and confirm it on the regional site.
The Japanese version is a separate product. Japanese retail listings show boxes of 24 packs , but Japanese pack specs are not the same as the English release (source: Fuji Card Shop). When you compare prices or pull rates, don't mix Japanese box counts with the English USD $4.99 pack listing.
What does EB-05 add for Heroines decks?
According to Bandai's official English product page, EB-05 adds a new Nico Robin Leader for Wisdom-attribute decks, six Special card types and an exclusive alternate-art card drawn by Kentaro Yabuki . The page calls EXTRA BOOSTER -ONE PIECE HEROINES EDITION vol.2- "The second Extra Booster featuring Heroines! Strengthen your deck by collecting a dazzling set of characters!" (source: ONE PIECE CARD GAME official site, 2026-09).
The product page lists these additions:
- New Nico Robin Leader: built for Wisdom-attribute decks .
- Six Special card types: part of the 75+2 card types in the set .
- Exclusive alt-art card: illustrated by Kentaro Yabuki, creator of To Love-Ru .
Nico Robin is named among the Heroines Leaders on the official Heroines Battle Vol.2 event page. The page does not say which Nico Robin Leader card numbers count. Before you build around the new EB-05 Leader, check that its card number is on the eligible list.
Bandai first showed EB-05 at its Next Plan presentation , which took place on June 18, 2026 (source: ONE PIECE CARD GAME Next Plan 2026).
The official pages do not list the full set, with card numbers and rarities, in one place. Third-party round-ups such as TCGplayer's EB-05 explainer and Samurai Sword Tokyo's card list are secondary sources. Check them against the official product page before you rely on them for deckbuilding.
How does Vol.2 compare with the first Heroines Battle?
Heroines Battle Vol.2 follows the same basic setup as the first Heroines Battle. Both events limit play to designated female Leaders and run in the same regions. The main differences are the dates and the prize. Vol.2 lists EB03-006 Nami as its prize, while Vol.1 gave out packs with three card options .
The first event ran from February 27 to March 22, 2026. Player applications opened through TCG+ on February 13, 2026 (source: ONE PIECE CARD GAME, Heroines Battle). Vol.2 runs from November 6 to December 6, 2026, and applications open on October 23, 2026 (source: ONE PIECE CARD GAME, Heroines Battle Vol.2).
- Regions: Both events cover NA/EU/OC/LATAM/ME .
- Leader restriction: Both events allow only designated female Leaders. Vol.2 calls them "Heroines Leaders" and allows alternate-art versions of the listed Leaders.
- Vol.1 prizes: Participants received a Heroines Battle Pack, and winners received a Winner Pack. Each pack held one card from three options: Nico Robin, Nami or Jewelry Bonney .
- Vol.2 prizes: The participation prize is EB03-006 Nami, and winners get a separate winner version of the same card . The Vol.2 page does not say the prize comes in a pack.
- Linked release: According to the official English site, Vol.2 celebrates the release of EB-05.
Third-party sources have covered both events and EB-05. These include TCGplayer's EB-05 explainer and retailer guides. They are secondary sources. For eligible Leaders, prize details and dates, the official event pages are the reference.
Takeaway: If you played Vol.1, Vol.2 will feel familiar: same regions, same female-Leader restriction, same TCG+ registration. The things to note are the new dates and the new prize. Applications open October 23, 2026. Confirm with your local store how it handles registration, and check the official page for the full list of eligible Leaders before you build a deck.
