CardRush TCG Price Scraper (Japan) – 9 Card Games

Extract card names, rarities, card numbers, condition/PSA grades, prices, and stock from CardRush — Japan's largest dedicated trading card game (TCG) retailer network, covering 9 card games in one Actor: Pokémon, One Piece, Dragon Ball Super, Magic: The Gathering, Duel Masters, Cardfight!! Vanguard, Battle Spirits, Digimon, and Shadowverse Evolve. Built for international collectors, resellers, price-arbitrage traders, and AI agents that need structured Japanese TCG price data — pokemon card prices japan, PSA graded singles, and more — without writing a scraper.

Why scrape CardRush?

Japanese TCG prices are a leading indicator that overseas collectors and resellers watch closely — the price gap between Japan and other markets drives real export demand for trading cards, from Pokémon and One Piece Card Game to MTG Japan singles and PSA graded cards. CardRush lists thousands of singles per game with per-card condition/PSA grading across 9 separate storefronts, giving one consistent data shape for a granular view of the entire Japanese TCG market — instead of building and maintaining 9 different scrapers.

How to use it (no coding)

1. Click Try for free / Start.
2. Choose a Card game (franchise) — one of Pokémon, One Piece, Dragon Ball Super, MTG, Duel Masters, Vanguard, Battle Spirits, Digimon, or Shadowverse Evolve.
3. Enter a Search keyword (Japanese works best, e.g. ピカチュウ for Pokémon, ルフィ for One Piece).
4. Optionally set Max items and a Proxy configuration.
5. Click Start and download the results as JSON, CSV, or Excel — or pull them via the API (below).

Input example

{
  "franchise": "duelmasters",
  "searchKeyword": "ボルシャック",
  "maxItems": 100
}

All fields except searchKeyword are optional — franchise defaults to pokemon and maxItems defaults to 100.

Output example

Each result is one card listing:

{
  "franchise": "duelmasters",
  "productId": "45532",
  "title": "ボルシャック・ドギラゴン【LEG】{P11/Y23}《火》",
  "cardName": "ボルシャック・ドギラゴン",
  "rarity": "LEG",
  "cardNumber": "P11/Y23",
  "attribute": "火",
  "modelNumber": "ボルシャックドギラゴン",
  "condition": null,
  "price": 4180,
  "currency": "JPY",
  "stock": 5,
  "imageUrl": "https://www.cardrush-dm.jp/data/cardrush-dm/_/...",
  "url": "https://www.cardrush-dm.jp/product/45532",
  "keyword": "火",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-07-10T00:00:00.000Z"
}

Field notes:

• title — the raw, unparsed listing title. Everything below is parsed from it, so nothing is ever lost.
• cardName — card name with variant notes kept (e.g. "モンキー・D・ルフィ(パラレル/illust:tatsuya)"), since variants are priced separately.
• condition — null for new stock; otherwise the shop's grade, e.g. "状態A-", "状態B" (played), "PSA10鑑定済" (PSA-graded), or "EX+" / "NM" style grades on MTG.
• attribute — game-specific axis from the title: color (Duel Masters, Battle Spirits, Digimon), nation (Vanguard), class (Shadowverse), or language (MTG: "英語" / "日本語"). null for Pokémon, One Piece and Dragon Ball, which don't use it.
• modelNumber — the shop's 型番 field: a set code on the Pokémon store (e.g. "CP6"), a card-grouping label on most other storefronts.
• On MTG the rarity field carries the set abbreviation (e.g. "A25", "MM2") because that is what the storefront prints in the rarity position; cardNumber is usually null there.

How much does it cost?

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing: a small charge when a run starts, plus a per-result charge for each item returned. You only pay for the data you actually receive, so a 100-item run costs about the price of 100 results. Use maxItems to cap your spend.

Integrations: API, MCP, and AI agents

This Actor is read-only: it only reads publicly available listing data and performs no login, purchase, or write actions — safe for autonomous agents to call.

API (curl)

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/datalab-jp~pokemon-card-price-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"franchise": "pokemon", "searchKeyword": "ピカチュウ", "maxItems": 50}'

Synchronous runs time out after 300 seconds. For large scrapes, use the standard run endpoint and fetch the dataset afterwards.

Python (apify-client)

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("datalab-jp/pokemon-card-price-scraper").call(run_input={
    "franchise": "pokemon",
    "searchKeyword": "ピカチュウ",
    "maxItems": 50,
})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items
print(items)

JavaScript (apify-client)

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('datalab-jp/pokemon-card-price-scraper').call({
    franchise: 'pokemon',
    searchKeyword: 'ピカチュウ',
    maxItems: 50,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

MCP / AI agents

This Actor is available through the Apify MCP server. AI agents (Claude, and any MCP-compatible client) can discover it with search-actors, inspect its inputs with fetch-actor-details, and run it with call-actor — no manual setup on your side. It is read-only, so it is safe for autonomous agents and RAG pipelines to call directly to feed structured Japanese TCG pricing data into an LLM workflow.

Which franchise value should I use? Set it to the lower-case code shown above that matches the card game you want, e.g. pokemon for Pokémon cards or onepiece for One Piece Card Game cards. It defaults to pokemon if left empty. Each value scrapes a different CardRush storefront, so pair it with a searchKeyword in that game's own naming convention (Japanese works best).
