SIXPATHS

Because a lot of people in my DMs asked me about some underrated Gems that Nobody even knows about … Here you go… DYOR first 🤫

One Piece version of E-60 Energy Marker. Pop 1,260 vs Pop 20. Total population of E-60 and any other gold energy marker cards should be under 100 imo.

slowly turning into a TCG investor bro, theres a huge bull market going on in the tcg world and its a hell of a lot of fun tbh

Welcome back 90's it's like you never left.

The third manga set I’m collecting is Demon Slayer. I think over the next decade it will become the third most popular manga series (and arguably anime as well) ever. I think the market is currently undervaluing Demon Slayer. The catalysts for this franchise, which just reached its tenth year anniversary: By July 2025, the manga had surpassed 220 million copies in circulation worldwide across just 23 volumes, cementing it among the all-time best-selling manga series. This is incredible for a title that finished its manga run in under FOUR years, unlike other top-selling mangas that went on for decades. Demon Slayer outperforms every other all-time franchise on a per-book (manga) basis. Demon Slayer has already surpassed Naruto (often viewed as the third most notable anime/manga behind only One Piece and Dragon Ball) in domestic Japanese sales, and globally sits within striking distance of Naruto’s 250 million worldwide total. The primary catalyst pushing Demon Slayer will be the Infinity Castle film trilogy, the first installment of which became one of the biggest anime movies of all time. Two more films are still to come. No doubt they will be huge worldwide successes. There is also an ongoing TCG for Demon Slayer, part of the Union Arena sets by Bandai. For collectibles, my recommendations to focus on are: Demon Slayer Kimetsu no Yaiba Manga Volume 1, 1st Print from 2016 in Japanese. See first image below. 2016 Weekly Shonen Jump Issue No. 11 - first episode of Demon Slayer ever featured in the comic series Shonen Jump. The true genesis for the IP. See second image below.

DYOR 🤫 This is a BIG issue for a good price if you can find it ….

Logan Paul has officially ruined Shonen Jump manga because why in the fuck is a Bleach manga volume 70,000 dollars ???

One Piece is the top selling manga of all time and the second top selling comic ever. It will surpass Superman for top comic sales in the coming years. Oda, the creator of One Piece, has indicated that he wants to finish the manga around 2030, so you may want to get ahead and start buying graded mangas now. Top priority is getting the “first printing” of One Piece manga Volume 1 (“Romance Dawn”), which was printed in December 1997 (see images). There are very few listings on eBay from trusted sellers with a grade of 9.0 or higher in BGS (or any other manga/comic grading company) and recent sales have been between $1500-2000 USD for 9.0 or higher. I expect this price to increase significantly as the manga nears its end, which is still at least a few years away. The hype for One Piece TCG will only likely drive up the price for the OG mangas, which should only be bought in Japanese first printing and not English (unlike the TCG cards where English drives higher prices than Japanese). Get ahead now.
