The card that returns beside the empty box
In TCG_999’s November 6 upload about opening one EB05 box, Black Maria appears as the parallel hit at 4:58. The last SR, Yamato, is shown close up at 7:12. At 8:12, the creator holds Black Maria beside the Japanese Heroines Edition vol.2 box again. Those verified moments explain our two-card selection; this is not a complete pull list.
Follow the box, the parallel and the final SR
The five-image story follows the original sequence. Actual source frames and official sample cards serve different purposes: one records what was opened, the other helps identify the printing. Original Korean video subtitles and official SAMPLE markings remain intact.
Black Maria EB05-037: Rare and parallel describe different things
The Japanese card matches the official EB05-037_p1 sample: horns, golden hair, web-like framing and decorations, with cost 1 and power 2000. Its printed base rarity is R. Calling the illustration a parallel does not turn that printed rarity into SR. The creator returns to the card beside the box at 8:12, making it a grounded focal point for the story rather than a card selected only because it was easy to identify.
Yamato EB05-046 changes the closing palette
The final close-up shows Japanese Yamato EB05-046 SR, matching the official regular SR illustration, cost 4, power 5000 and black card color. Pale hair and cherry blossoms give the closing reveal a very different atmosphere from Black Maria’s dark purple framing. This is our visual comparison of the two verified cards. A separate Yamato parallel is not the printing being priced or described here.
The Japanese prices remain unverified
We did not establish current Japanese-market JPY listings, market references or completed-sale prices for these exact copies. Video footage does not establish a condition grade. Black Maria is the parallel artwork; Yamato matches the regular SR illustration, with copy-specific finish and condition still requiring separate price evidence. No observation date is invented. Content was checked November 9, 2026. TCGIndex’s same-number English Black Maria detail contains a US JustTCG reference, which cannot price the Japanese card. We have neither copied that amount nor converted it into yen.
Keep the scene, skip the invented box return
The on-screen pull-rate caption is labeled as the creator’s estimate, so we do not repeat it as an official guarantee. We also do not calculate a box return or profit. Exact Japanese TCGIndex detail connections remain unconfirmed. Watch the original, compare official artwork and full numbers, then record your own collection.
