Japanese Pokemon cards went on a meteoric rise - Alternate Arts, Full Art Supporters and Booster Boxes reached prices we'd never seen before. Umbreon VMAX, Iono SAR, Sightseer - the list goes on.
But what goes up must come down, and whether you're a Pokemon Card collector or investor, it's safe to say that none of us saw this aftermath coming.

Japanese market manipulators just thought Pokemon no longer worth it, probably due to them being heavily printed. Now they are in full throttle to manipulate One Piece markets which have much less printings. They just got the new golden goose, so they dropped the old bird.
its like a repeating cycle, similar thing happened a few years ago with dragon ball cards. All it takes is for pokemon to release some crazy set and the vultures will come back in no time
@@prodinuyasha i hope not but yes they always be hungry
OP is dead too, reprinted to the ground
Literally couldn't have been said better!
What about English though? Would you say that the English market just follows the Japanese market often times? Because English one piece is also ridiculous and English Pokémon has also seemed to have fallen off to a degree as of lately.
Love seeing my most prized posession from the last month in a youtube thumbnail with flames on it and the words "fell off" in the title
hey it's a good thing!
Your prized possession is printed cardboard a corporation sold you?
@@katielowen it's pretty and blue and shiny cardboard :3
It's a collectors item! It doesn't have to be from valuable materials, it just has to mean something to someone so that there's a demand for it.
I'm hoping this OP fever continues to oblivion and let pokemon heal.
im spending more money now on japanese pokemon then before, because of the fallen prices. time to pick the cards that went crazy, and now has come down
Nice of twinbakejake to allow you to borrow his outfit for this video
he my bro
Never heard of him.
One Piece "investors" are going to get wrecked harder than any other TCG that came before it. It's a matter of time.
Thanks for this update Julian. As a casual I fell off the a while back because of the prices. Now I have hope to finish off a couple of sets, mainly a collector of the art. Appreciate you.
okj told me "the time to get interested is when no one is"
I am all in
Subscribed because I saw your podcast with Opossum Bud, and just want to say thank you for making the content you make. You like Opossum Bud are a voice that needs to be heard in this community
Thank you very much, you have summarized the developments of the last year very well!
In Tokyo the other day a card shop was trying to sell a full art trainer for 350,000 yen but will never shift for that raw. I noticed a fair amount of card shops had the big cards in not moving when I'm actually there in person on the ground, Lillie etc.
Man thanks for this comprehensive explanation of the Japanese market. It’s so hard to find people who are talking about it. What is your take on the Pokémon classic collection in Japanese?
thanks legend. JPN classic is overlooked. product is very nice, cards look amazing - if you can handle the price point it's worth it IMO!
Bro im so happy that SAR is now down in price it means more for my binder so its a win
Interesting times for me to decide to move to only japanese collecting hahaha. Card prices are lower, I'm happy it means I can pick up what I want at reasonable prices 😍
I follow a lot of pokemon content creators, you sir are the best in my book. Thanks for the informative video!
u flatter me ryan
It depends on the set. What characters are in it, and whether or not it’s printed a lot.
Blue sky stream and eevee heroes were very underprinted in japan & they still hold much more value than the English counterparts.
The SV era hasn’t had wild sets like that yet. Once they make Pokémon of all the SV Pokémon, I feel the next year will have a lot of fan favorite Pokémon in sets & I’m sure the Japanese versions of those sets will be very popular in Japanese over English, because a lot of people like to collect Japanese versions of art they like since the texture is good in Japan
Damn Julian was kinda cooking with this one
take notes lil bro
Great video, I have to admit I'm a little of everything collector and investor. I like collecting sealed boxes but also collecting singles.
Super informative and well done video. Keep being awesome!
11:52 gordie still catching strays 🤣
Would be nice to see the USD price edited on the video. Now I have to look up the conversion
ill try and add for next time!
On the One Piece stuff, or Lorcana for that matter, it's gonna be even more short-lasting since they are both fanbases without any real experience with TCGs, it is incredibly risky to buy these things now, they will most likely crash harder than anything else ever.
Like meta zoo?
Yep, it'll be a similar thing. Might not be as crushing since OP is indeed a big IP but the current prices are definetively crazy and in full speculation, I would not risk anything regarding them.@@poke_luie4115
Good times for collectors! Now i'll just wait for that Giratina V alt art to go down further😅
In this year while prices are slightly lower, im planning to pick up all the japanese 151 sar psa 10's just for my personal collection. Personally believe the sars are in such a good deal right now and am glad that their not as expensive as the alt arts were when the alt arts were released.
Happy that the hype has gone down and so has prices. Means people like me who had to stop collecting can now get back into again. I've managed to get boxes from PCJ for the past few sets now and it feels great
Funny enough you should do a vid on Japanese cards as I have just listed some on the bay haha. What do you class as a grail card from Japanese eras, black & white? Jungle, fossil, ruby, dragon select? I've just listed a full set of Dragon select 1st edition but I don't see them and never have seen them as Grail cards there are no cards in my opinion as grail cards outside tournament and rare promo cards because set cards are mass produced and hoarded away so a set card is as rare as its available until the price rises and then it becomes cheap and available, championship cards will never be available under any circumstance due to how many were printed and that goes for full complete sets because people throw away the common cards so the chase card becomes the feature but its hard to put the set together with just chase cards 😊 Stevirobbo
Keep doing these type of vids
I thought this was happening because I heard the Japanese market is having a small crash. And one piece is made by Bandai if I’m not wrong and they are known for dropping trading cards in 5 years or less. Look at dragon ball super. They are already making dragon ball fusion tcg
I’m so happy that I was too broke to even consider buying cards during the pump 💪🏼
jluv the hunk spitting truth
Excellent points, whether you’re an investor or collector now is a great time to buy
Tho only reason why your seeing sales down is because they're too expensive, once the prices fall your gonna see the spike again
Banger edited video, as per usual!!
we try
I'm travelling to Japan this July. I hope the value falls even further! I have so many chase cards for the trip I cannot even fathom :(
Buyers market, baby! 🤙
Great insights!
do you all think the prices will keep dipping? not so much of an investor but moreso worried that the SAR cards that i bought recently will be worthless lol
Woah woah lookin sharp my guy
Honestly love that the hype is gone. I can actually buy the product
It isn't really gone. It just moved. Now is the time to buy because these prices will eventually spike again.
Honestly much of the market still seems red hot to me, just depends on which cards you're looking at. Middle era (like BW) and vintage is going ham right now.
More content like this man. Love it!
The spike probably has something to do with the world championships in Japan last year.
15:14 Gardevoir ex is the deck with the highest winrate online of all meta decks so yeah. :)
Finally time to get some VSTAR Universe 🙏 reminds me when I used to buy Tag Team GX All Stars for $45 box… on a side note, Legendary Heartbeat is underrated still
real ones remember Legendary Heartbeat
I hate that I can’t have both good prices for Pokémon and one piece
This dude bought heaps of Japanese cards and is kicking himself
Maybe I can FINALLY get Japanese copies of the Miriam full art & SIR, been waiting on them to drop and it might be time!
Seems like you're only covering modern here. The downtrend is no real surprise to me honestly. Modern has been overvalued all around for a long time now. Vintage Japanese has been holding fine, and is still in the undervalued range compared to the insanity that goes on in modern.
vintage is a whole other topic. but yep, still undervalued - been saying it for years 😅😅
jluv, by chance do you know what japanese people think about english pokemon cards and the market for english cards? do they see english cards as worse than jp like how we do? or do they think its a commodity and think it's really cool? im mad curious. (also pls respond to dm whenever u get the chance :> )
As of a couple of weeks ago, Japanese pokemon centers actually started selling english booster boxes.
I picked up the art deoxys and the newish groudon all under 35 psa 10 I'm loving the prices and since everything is a pendulum I'm sure somewhere down the road Japanese cards will go up If pokemon is still on fire then🔥
Do you think master balls are worth collecting or just a waste of time? Just finished 151 except for the mb and now i’m debating if i should master them or not
If I had the means, I’d go for it. But it’s a difficult and expensive task. I think they’re cool and we both know how hard they are to complete just by pulling them haha. Just be prepared to pay up. With the reprint now, it’s probably a good time
@@okJLUV master set of eevee heroes or master set of 151 (including mb)?
perfect timing just came back from Japan after buying lots of Pokemon cards. 🤣🤣
I love the one piece setup, pokemon need to copy some of that stuff I love how their a chaser with ever set. Its so good bandai copying the formula for dbz.
Great video. Online platforms making accessibility better for Jpn cards, One Piece actually having a successful-playable game. In my opinion as to the biggest reason, the FX conversion rate of USD to Yen dropping Yen 40% in the last 6-12 months. One piece booster boxes and manga cards are super expensive for english because low print run and it's not japanese.
me playing duel masters looking at pokemon price oof same price as our highest rarity cards
i pre-ordered the 1 op-5 box and opened it, sold everything i pulled, bought more pokemon cards and told myself, pokemon forever
*Did a mop attack your head bro?*
What incredible content
im waiting for Pokemon to release a worthy high-class set again, shiny treasure is such a turn-off, only 4 sar that I feel are worth pulling other sar is not good enough.
It's just a post-bubble world: prices will never go back to "what they used to be", like, a PSA Lugia Crystal for 100 bucks, but a big % of the exponential price growth we've seen in the latest years, being obviously unsustainable, will crash.
First will be the "trash", the contemporary releases, which have been sold at about 2-3x MSRP for something like 3-4 years. This is already happening and contemporary boxes are back at MSRP. Even bigger cards are going down, like the Lugia Alternate and similar stuff. Heck, even Eevee Heroes boxes are popping back up on Mercari etc.
This of course HAS to happen since Japanese products were never really scarce, the idea that scarcity exists for contemporary products is naif, only a few were actually not enough to meet demand, mostly Eevee Heroes.
So if you stacked on those boxes it's time so sell, same for the singles, they will also crash greatly.
We'll see the shrink in prices for actual important vintage stuff too but it will be slower.
how does the seller profit more from the tiktok discount? doesn't tiktok just pay the 30 dollars that the seller didnt pay in that scenario? and they still get 90 for their box?
tiktok seller doesn’t profit more, they earn the same. buyer saves, seller earns the same, tiktok “loses” the saving cost. so the seller earns the same no matter what. good catch, that explanation at 7:39 is wrong, i have no idea why i worded it that way, sorry!!
Yeah certainly still beneficial for the seller either way though! The Buyee coupons were similar at the end of last year, which was great for JP singles
**cue the next eeveelution set**
trueeeeeeeeeee
Oh no
Kinda felt like Marvel universe and vstar universe was end game 🥲
@11:00 what the hell are you talking about? PF/STEX is a killer special set. It's leagues above all other previous shiny sets. Hidden fates is solid as well, but even comparing the baby shinies from hidden fates to the baby shinies from PF/STEX the HF stuff isnt close to as nice as the PF stuff art wise.
Now playability i kinda agree that it's a less than playable set. that iono is about the only one that really has playable value.
"the good times are over". nah jluv, now is the good time. i can buy 2 boxes now for what it cost me to buy 1 box before. ARs are beautiful and affordable. grails are not as expensive as they were before but many are still around that $50, $100, etc range.
25:15 ;)
@@okJLUV yaaaaaaas
I started to collect some of my favorite collections from childhood in japanese so this is good news for me 🎉
Japan is in a recession. that is why people are panic selling their collectables.
Bruh I love your videos so much. Gonna go buy me a box of cyber judge
why you so nice for 😭😭
thank god the cards fell off now I can buy them again
I'm personally really happy about the fall in prices. I collect to enjoy and open the packs I get. So glad that I can start getting RRP boxes again. I saw the start of this while in Japan last year and packs were easier to get.
Also looking dapper Jluv.
Also interesting tip about getting some cards to possibly trade up. There's a couple I'm chasing that I'm gonna consider doing that for now, thank you.
I'm over here buying other Asian sets for a fraction of the price of Japanese.
I am loving this finally get to buy a cheap giratina v alt art Japanese
I feel for other people in OP TCG, but I'm loving that the investor bros are going away. Let them go away. Nice affordable prices.
i read it as, TIME TO BUY
It’s truly joever. Sold my Waifu the female Trainer cards at a loss and burned my umbreon vmax with my metazoo boxes. Juan Peace is the way forward. I love Juan Peace, with the little reindeer guy and Luffy and Nami and Oda.
i want juan piece of what he's having
Thats good news ever for collectors like me lol
Nature is healing
op = bandai = eventual F = metazoo = fab
People are getting overwhelmed and tired of spending money just to get certain cards. Plus with inflation and dudes marrying and having kids, I'm seeing alot of people sell their cards to pay their debts and some chick and kids. I'm glad I'm able to swoop in and afford the cards I finally want.
this is great finally some cheap nice card gonna buy some psa10's of the list u showed, u are right about buying when no one wants it i did this in crypto aswell last year 2023 with collapse of big exchange solana did fell to 8 euro nobody wanted it i bought at the lowest it was and sold everything at around 200
IMO I think one piece is partially to blame as well. No one thought it would blow up like it did. Not even bandai. Edit: good that you brought it up in the video
If you are looking to invest in assets... pokemon cards? come on man, thats on par with sneakers and nft's
Great video! I’m a collector AND investor. I think even as a collector if I spend a lot on something I’m hoping it will at least maintain its value. So I have mixed feelings about the market. I love the affordability to add to the collection but it does sting to have over spent on some things last year and feel “locked in” to them. But that’s how it goes. The investment side for me sees a wealth of opportunities right now if you can hold and be patient.
feel ya on the last part for sure. it’s both good and bad ;P
This is a good thing not a bad thing
But English collectors are all about getting that psa 10 slabs getting a higher value overall but barely moving in the market . Market is so saturated now with slabs it’s impossible to collect . Raw cards are mostly oc cards … English printing is the worse now as well in terms of quality and hits are way easier making prices bad look at erika invitation in Eng and then jp price. I guess only America is holding up Eng pokemon cards value but no one else in Asia really collects Eng most collect jp cards .
Very true...
PSA 9s cost less than raw cards. Just buy and crack. EZ
@@EricDrinksWaterthats besides the point you dont understand
bubble
This is a lie I know someone who has a biz for the Japanese cards they still way more popular and cheaper then english dubbed cards
cooked
For One Piece TCG, recently released (2 days ago) expansion OP07 people can't get enough of it. In Japan you can only get it through lottery system. In most local shops you'll only get 5 boosters per person max (which is 1/5 of booster box) and maybe some mystery packs. So your argument about diminishing interest in all trading card games is completely missed. The reason why Japanese and English Pokemon cards are where they are now is because recent products sucks ass. Shiny Treasures ex is literally the worst holiday set ever made. It's disappointing on so many levels. For newer sets like Cyber Judge and Wild Force the reason for lack of interest is that they're focusing too much on DLC monsters which barely anyone cares about. People care about nostalgia Pokemon and characters which reflects on prices. Like it or not, good art won't make people go buy certain card instantly. Second reason why japanese and english cards are being cheaper and cheaper is because they're overprinted. And another reason is because people are disappointed with Pokemon games recently, especially with massive success of Palworld. Scarlet/Violet and its DLC is a massive letdown and from technical standpoint they're embarrassment.
First, everyone else is lying. Also its Pokemon Day.
I LOVE IT!!! LET IT KEEP DIPPING! LOL
I dont know why, the cards are way much better than englisch etc😂look 151 so much beautiful. In japanese you have masterballs, on englisch and other languages nothing. Japanese cards are so beautiful 🎉🎉🎉. You dont know in 5 to 10 years😂😂😂
Lol yeahh... All you see on eBay are Japanese cards. Millions being graded left right and center. The english cards are getting hard to find because of this craze.
Japan's economy is going down the shitter. It has nothing to do with Pokemon cards it's just a cause & effect. That will happen everywhere soon enough.
IF YOU'RE AN INVESTOR YOU DON'T MAKE MONEY ON THE GREEN AND GREED.......YOU MAKE MAKE MONEY FROM THE RED AND ON THE FEAR. BUY THE FEAR SELL THE GREED.
You ruined people's chance to feed their family jluv
stop telling everybody that tcg is so bad, you didnt appreciate anything and just hate at everything, people that collect pokemon cards usually have a strategy how they want to get their cards and so how much they would spend for a set.
So just leave youtube and stop to manipulate these people who still enjoy tcg.
i like TCG?
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I think there's just more competition now and people have to choose where they spend their money. Now you have One Piece, Dragon Ball Super Fusion World, and Disney Lorcana. Digimon is also a growing game. The TCG market is no longer all about Magic, Pokemon, and YuGiOh.
About fucking time, they bullied me out of English collecting then I moved to Japanese. Also got bullied out of that due to scalpers and insane inflation so I finally can get back into Japanese collecting again. Praise the heavens
