🚨 MAJOR DISCOVERY: Pokémon had 1996 No Rarity. Could One Piece have a 1999 equivalent? I audited 180 PSA cards across 8 First Stage designs: 47 (26.1%) carry a wrong kanji in Oda’s name. None of 50+ later-stage cards had it. First-print evidence? 🤯 https://t.co/YR8W3pzaZ4
@hyperbattle1999 Mistakes in the original creator’s name are rare these days, but back then, errors in card names, missing card numbers, and incorrect card types were real issues.
@hyperbattle1999 I was thinking the exact same thing! 😂
It’s great to discover that some cards from 1999 are even rarer than others!
I’d love to keep learning more from you! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
The backs of some 1999 Carddass Hyper Battle One Piece cards show a different form of the kanji "郎" in Eiichiro Oda's name "尾田栄一郎"
⭕️郎 - correct
❌朗 - incorrect
Thoughts?
