What this is
The year to March 2026 print carries a ±1bn band. A per-set fee tracks the set-count index (flat), a per-card royalty tracks print, and a royalty on card yen tracks print × ¥/card.
The value
- Set count index: ≈1.0 throughout (EN 5–6 a year; JP 7–13 with no trend)
Some detail is too fine to show here; it is kept in the trainer’s notes.

- print_t/3.2
- × (JTA ¥/card_t / 19.52): FY3/23 9.7/3.2×24.22/19.52 = 3.761
- FY3/24 11.9/3.2×23.31/19.52 = 4.441
- FY3/25 10.2/3.2×29.65/19.52 = 4.842
- FY3/26 10.0/3.2×33.84/19.52 = 5.418
