One Piece Card Game
One Piece Card Game, launched by Bandai in 2022, rode the worldwide One Piece anime boom into one of the fastest-growing competitive TCGs. Local events center on Locals nights (store-level weekly play), Regionals with prize support, and Flagship Battles that culminate in national-scale Store Championships. The game's four-Leader-color deck structure gives strong onboarding while supporting deep archetype combinations once players dig in.
