Collectors Club posted a short stating that One Piece trading cards would not be allowed at his store or card show, citing concerns about anime artwork and being “family friendly.” One Piece is one of the fastest-growing card games right now, and the reasoning sparked discussion across the hobby.

Opossum Bud responded with a neutral and respectful take, questioning whether the decision made sense while still respecting the right of a store owner to choose what they sell.

In this video, I:

Show both sides of the argument

Discuss whether the hobby is truly “family friendly”

Talk about gambling elements, cash deals, and card show realities

Question whether selective standards create hypocrisy

Share my honest opinion on manufacturers, distributors, and hobby expectations

This is not a hate video — it’s a discussion about where the trading card hobby is headed.

???? Let me know what YOU think in the comments.
