Prince Grus

Prince Grus was released as part of the -A FIST OF DIVINE SPEED- [OP-11] expansion for the One Piece Card Game, which debuted in late 2024. This set focuses heavily on the characters and conflicts surrounding the Egghead Arc, reflecting the ongoing narrative progression in the source material. As a character card, Grus is designed to integrate into specific deck archetypes that emphasize the Marines faction, utilizing mechanics that mirror his unique ability to manifest clay-based constructs in combat.

The card’s aesthetic follows the established visual language of the One Piece Card Game, prioritizing dynamic illustrations that highlight the subject’s personality and abilities. While specific design credits for individual cards are rarely made public, the set’s overall art direction aims to balance high-action sequences with the manga’s distinct character proportions. The release was well-received by competitive players for its tactical utility and by collectors for its inclusion of newer, prominent figures from the current Egghead storyline.
