How rare is Red Manga Luffy from OP-13?

Wie selten ist Red Manga Luffy aus OP-13?

Monkey D. Luffy OP13-118 Red Manga Rare from One Piece Card Game OP-13: Carrying On His Will is among the most spectacular chase cards Bandai has released to date.

OP-13 was released in 2025 for the 3rd Anniversary of the One Piece Card Game and heavily focuses on the three brothers Luffy, Ace, and Sabo. The extremely rare red Luffy variant is at the top of many collectors' wish lists.

What is the Pull Rate for Red Manga Luffy?

Bandai does not release official pull rates. The available figures are therefore based on evaluated case openings and community data.

For the particularly rare Red Super Alternate Art, which includes Red Luffy, the current estimated pull rate is approximately:

about 1 card per 94 Booster Displays

In contrast, the normal Manga Rare tier of OP-13 is estimated to be approximately 1 Manga Rare per 42 displays.

This already shows that Red Luffy is even more rare than a normal Manga Rare.

A typical English One Piece display contains 24 booster packs. Mathematically, 94 displays therefore correspond to:

94 × 24 = 2,256 Booster Packs

for a Red Super Alternate Art hit on a statistical average.

Of course, this is no guarantee. One collector might be lucky with a single display – another might open several cases and not pull a Red Manga.

How many cases would that be?

A regular English One Piece case typically contains 12 Booster Displays.

Thus, 94 displays are approximately equivalent to:

7.8 Cases

Statistically speaking, a Red Super Alternate Art hit would therefore be approximately one hit per eight cases.

And even then, it's not guaranteed that this hit will specifically be Luffy.

This explains why some documented collectors have opened several OP-13 cases without finding the desired Red Manga, while others, with a lot of luck, had a hit after only a few cases.

Why is Red Manga Luffy so coveted?

Several factors come together for this card:

  • Monkey D. Luffy is the main character of One Piece.

  • OP-13 is a special 3rd Anniversary Set.

  • The red Manga treatment is exceptionally rare.

  • Luffy, Ace, and Sabo together form a strong collector's theme.

  • OP-13 is already considered one of the most important modern One Piece sets for high-end collectors.

Market data currently shows Monkey D. Luffy OP13-118 Red Super Alternate Art as the clear top chase of the set.

Open or keep sealed?

This is exactly where OP-13 becomes exciting for collectors.

A single display gives you 24 chances for a hit.

At the same time, the estimated pull rates show how unlikely the Red Luffy hit actually is.

Those who open are chasing one of the rarest modern One Piece pulls.

Those who leave the display or even a complete case factory sealed, on the other hand, preserve exactly this unopened chance for the future.

Conclusion

Red Manga Luffy OP13-118 is one of the rarest and most sought-after cards from OP-13.

The currently evaluated community data estimates the Red Super Alternate Art pull rate to be approximately:

1 hit per 94 displays

or roughly:

1 hit per 8 cases

Bandai does not officially confirm these figures, so they must always be understood as estimates.

However, it is precisely this extreme rarity that makes the card one of the most wanted pulls in the entire One Piece Card Game.
