How it’s built
- For each product, divide the list price on the official product page by the cards per pack. Standard packs went from ¥33 to ¥36 to ¥40 a card.
- Divide each premium pack's price per card by the standard pack's at the same date: 1.15 to 1.67 times.
What we assumed
- Each premium pack is compared with the standard pack on sale nearest its release.This keeps the comparison to one price level, since the standard price itself rose in 2023 and 2026.
Sanity check
These are list prices, not what shops charged or buyers paid. The 'high-class' tier stayed at ¥55 a card through the 2023 standard price rise.
