Weiss Schwarz - Umamusume: Pretty Derby - Beginning of a New Era Booster (10 Count) (Copy)

Pick your favourite runner and bring race day to your card table. Umamusume: Pretty Derby – Beginning of a New Era brings the franchise’s first feature film to the Weiss Schwarz trading card game, with Jungle Pocket and her fellow racers appearing across the set. This English-edition booster box contains 10 individually wrapped packs with 8 cards in each pack, giving you 80 cards to open. Whether you follow one character through every release or enjoy building a deck around an entire cast, this box gives you several ways to explore the film through its cards.

Eight racers with new original artwork

One of the highlights of Beginning of a New Era is a group of eight cards featuring new original illustrations. The featured racers are Jungle Pocket, Agnes Tachyon, Manhattan Cafe, Dantsu Flame, T.M. Opera O, Fuji Kiseki, Narita Top Road, and Meisho Doto. If you came away from the film with a favourite, her illustrated card makes a natural starting point for your collection. Fans of the wider cast can take on a longer collecting project and put together a binder page featuring all eight racers.

The character lineup also makes this a fun box to open with someone who knows the series. Pick the racer each of you most wants to see before opening the first pack, then compare your pulls as you go. You might both be looking for Jungle Pocket, or find that the Manhattan Cafe card one person opens is exactly what the other was hoping to trade for.

Discover the set, pack by pack

The full release includes 100 normal card types and 100 parallel card types. The normal lineup spans Common, Uncommon, Rare, Double Rare, and Climax cards. On the parallel side, the set includes 76 Super Rare, 12 Triple Rare, and 12 Special card types. These figures describe the variety available across the release. Each box contains a random selection, so the characters, rarities, and parallel cards you uncover will vary.

How you collect is up to you. Sort by card number if you enjoy watching a set come together, or arrange your binder by racer so you can see each character’s appearances side by side. If you collect both normal and parallel versions, leaving a space beside a favourite card gives you a specific pull to look for the next time you open a pack or trade with another fan.

Bring your pulls into play

For Weiss Schwarz players, the release fits into Umamusume Neo-Standard deck construction. Cards from this booster can be used alongside eligible cards whose numbers begin with UMA/. If you already play Umamusume, you can go through your pulls with your current deck in hand and see which cards you want to try at your next game. For fans coming to Weiss Schwarz through the film, the English card text makes it easy to read through each pull and get to know how a favourite racer appears in play.

The ten-pack format works equally well for a solo opening, a gift for an Umamusume fan, or a shared opening after movie night. Split the box evenly between two fans for five packs each, or save a few unopened packs for your next game night. However you open it, every pack is another chance to find the racer you were cheering for when the film’s starting gates opened.
