Kayou, KB, and Card Fun: Licensed Asian Trading Cards

This category includes officially licensed Asian trading cards from publishers Kayou, KB, and Card Fun, featuring anime, manga, and pop-culture titles. It encompasses two markets: Chinese (CH) editions, the original language, and English (EN) versions distributed in Europe. Depending on the product, buyers purchase cards to open them and hunt for rarities, to complete a collection, or to resell sealed cards.

Kayou, the Heavyweight of the Segment

Kayou (卡游) is the leading Chinese publisher of licensed trading cards, with a catalog covering both anime and pop culture. Its series include Naruto (Heaven Scroll and Earth Scroll), Evangelion, Frieren, Hatsune Miku (Kayou 110 series), The Powerpuff Girls, How to Train Your Dragon, as well as its more mainstream My Little Pony, Tokidoki, and K-Pop Demon Hunters lines. Kayou cards are based on a tiered rarity system (SSR, UR, SP, and above, depending on the series) and special finishes, which makes opening a box worthwhile: the value is concentrated on a few cards per series.

Card Fun, the Western Licensed Card Company
Card Fun has positioned itself in the Western licensed market. In this category, the brand is represented by its Star Wars: Power the Force series in Chinese edition, a collection of art cards to open and collect.

KB, the Chinese Anime and Shonen Card Company
KB publishes Chinese versions of cards based on major shonen and pop culture licenses: One Piece (single booster packs and boxes of 30), Dragon Ball Z (box of 30), and Mofusand. The same logic applies as Kayou: sealed boxes to open to find the rare cards in each series.

Chinese (CH) or English (EN) Edition: Which to Choose

The Chinese (CH) version is the original edition: it was released first, the text is in Chinese, and the price is often more affordable. The English (EN) version targets the European market, with English text and an official distribution channel. For a collector, the choice comes down to language, availability, and price; for resale, the original edition and sealed condition generally carry more weight.

Which Format to Choose? Single booster packs are useful for testing a series or completing a collection without a large budget. The mini box (12 to 16 boosters) is a convenient intermediate format. The box (10 to 30 boosters depending on the series) is the standard format for opening a large quantity and maximizing your chances of finding rare items.
