How can you tell which series a Weiss Schwarz card belongs to?

Published September 24, 2026 · By the Cards from Japan editors

Summary

Look at the letters before the slash in the card number. The Japanese deck rules call this the title code and give BD/W47-001 as the example, where BD is the code. English product pages spell it out too: Chainsaw Man cards start with CSM/, Frieren with SFN/, and Azur Lane with AZL/, and a Neo-Standard deck may only use one title.

English titles and their codes

Title	English releases	Code
Avatar: The Last Airbender	Booster Pack, June 16, 2023	ATLA/
Azur Lane	Booster Pack, Oct. 27, 2023; Vol.2, Oct. 17, 2025	AZL/
Chainsaw Man	Booster Pack, Feb. 16, 2024	CSM/
Marvel	Booster Pack Marvel/Card Collection, Oct. 11, 2024	MAR/
Frieren: Beyond Journey's End	Booster Pack, Nov. 22, 2024	SFN/
GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE	Booster Pack, Apr. 18, 2025; Vol.2, Sept. 25, 2026	NIK/
Umamusume: Pretty Derby	Booster Pack and Trial Deck Race 1, June 26, 2026	UMA/

Because Azur Lane Vol.2 keeps the AZL/ code, its cards go in the same Neo-Standard deck as the first set. A title can also have two codes. The English Neo-Standard list treats Disney Mirrorverse's MRd/ and MRp/ cards as one title.

Series that exist only in Japanese

STAR WARS is a Japanese-only title with the code SW. Five Japanese products carry it: a trial deck and a booster pack (both June 16, 2017), a Comeback Booster (Sept. 23, 2022), a Premium Booster (Feb. 17, 2023), and Premium Booster Vol.2 (Aug. 23, 2024). Neither the title menu nor the product menu of the English card search lists it.

What each card search can filter

The English card search filters by title (Neostandard Classification) and by product name, but it has no rarity filter. The Japanese card list adds a rarity filter and an option to hide parallels.
