Why Is the “Monkey D. Luffy SR” So Expensive? An Analysis of the Price Surge

What is ONE PIECE magazine?

ONE PIECE magazine is a special official supplemental publication (or “mook,” a mix of a magazine and a book) that was first launched by Shueisha in 2017 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the One Piece manga serialization. Published irregularly, it is packed with exclusive content highly coveted by fans, including original cover art drawn by creator Eiichiro Oda, early design drafts for key locations, and official spin-off stories.

A Special Commemorative Card for the 20th Issue

This particular card was included as an insert to celebrate the 20th issue of the magazine. The artwork for the card is a tribute to the cover of the very first issue released back in 2017. A clever design touch is that the card’s effect text is formatted to resemble a magazine headline.

While previous issues have also included other coveted promo cards featuring characters like “Yamato” and “Portgas D. Ace”, this “Monkey D. Luffy” card stands out due to its unique commemorative design.

The card has captured significant attention and is currently trading at a high value for several key reasons:

1. Massive Character Popularity: Monkey D. Luffy is the face of one of the world’s most popular franchises. His cards inherently attract high demand.
2. Special Promotion Status: As a unique, limited-edition promotional card, it holds high scarcity value.
3. Collector Demand: The combination of an iconic character and a special anniversary design makes this a must-have item for serious collectors, driving up its market price.
