Good news for shrine-town fans: the "〈Monogatari〉 Series" is getting its second booster pack in Union Arena. Bandai has officially revealed "〈Monogatari〉 Series Vol.2 [EX18BT]", and it releases November 27, 2026 - and this time, the line gets a whole new color to play with.
A New Color Joins the Line
The headline here is color. Vol.2 introduces green to the Monogatari line for the first time, opening up a brand-new build path for the series in Union Arena. At the same time, the set includes cards that strengthen existing color decks, so veteran pilots can tune the lists they already run while newcomers get a fresh angle to explore. The two goals dovetail neatly: green gives the line an identity of its own, and the support cards keep older strategies competitive.
What's in the Set
The pack features content from the anime's Second Season and Final Season - the story's later chapters, where some of the cast's strangest arcs come to a head. The illustrated lineup covers just about everyone you would hope to see: Koyomi Araragi and Shinobu Oshino, Hitagi Senjogahara, Mayoi Hachikuji, Suruga Kanbaru, Nadeko Sengoku, Tsubasa Hanekawa, Karen Araragi, Tsukihi Araragi, Yotsugi Ononoki, Ougi Oshino, and Sodachi Oikura. Leading the roll call is the pair of Koyomi and Shinobu, which feels right for the series' most iconic duo, and the list rounds out with faces from across both seasons.
Autographs and Chase Cards
Then there is the collector bait, and it is good. The set includes foil-stamped autograph cards signed by members of the anime's voice cast, with the full signing lineup still to be announced. Even rarer: serial-numbered, autographed Action Point (AP) cards, produced at a very low pull rate and in limited quantity. For collectors, those AP cards are the crown jewels - the kind of pull you build a story around.
Pack Specs and Release
The set follows standard booster sizing: 8 cards per pack, 16 packs per box. The rarity spread covers SR 12, R 12, U 26, and C 25 types, plus 11 AP card types, with parallel rares included for extra chase value. That is a healthy pool to build from, whether you are chasing a full set or just the cards for one deck. Mark November 27, 2026 on your calendar now.
