Weiss Schwarz Azur Lane Vol. 2 launched in Japan on January 17, 2025 and reached English shelves on October 17, 2025, and it is one of the most signature-heavy sets Bushiroad has ever shipped. The base set runs 130 cards plus 181 parallels, topped by one SIR, four SEC+ secrets, five RRR+ cards and a huge 41 SPs.

Those 41 SPs are the signature cards, with 41 different voice actresses hot-stamping one shipgirl each, while the SEC+ secrets are foil-stamped design cards instead of autographs. Japan also got a first-print-only AGR, a serial-numbered Gray Ghost card carrying Yui Ishikawa’s actual handwritten signature, which is the single most expensive card in the line. Packs hold 8 cards, a box holds 12 packs, and 28 illustrations were drawn fresh for the set, so here are the 15 hottest cards in it.
15. Otto von Alvensleben (SP)
Otto von Alvensleben is one of the newer Iron Blood faces, and this SP is her first real collector card. An Haruno, her Japanese voice actress, signed it. It opens the list because it is the cheapest signed SP of this group, which makes it the easy first autograph for anyone starting an Azur Lane binder.
14. Yorktown II (SP)
Yorktown II carries one of the most storied names in the Eagle Union lineup, and carrier fans collect her for exactly that reason. Kana Yuuki signed this SP. It sits in the low twenty thousand yen bracket, so it is a signed carrier card at a price that does not require a second thought.
13. Unzen (SP)
Unzen’s card is one of the quiet winners of the set, because her signed SP has crept up well past where it started. Suzuko Mimori signed it. It now trades in the mid five figures in yen, which is Belfast territory, and that is a serious result for a Sakura Empire heavy cruiser.
12. Large Cruiser, Agir (SP)
Agir is one of the most popular Northern Parliament units in the game, and her SP leans into that armored-queen look. The signature belongs to Ayane Sakura, one of the biggest names in the industry. Between the character and the voice, this is the SP that non-Azur Lane collectors recognize first.
11. Light Cruiser, Belfast (SP)
Belfast is the maid who basically sells Azur Lane merchandise by herself, so her SP was always going to be chased. Yui Horie signed this one, which is a legendary name on a hot-stamped card. It sits in the mid five figures in yen and holds that line, because Belfast demand never really dips.
10. Light Cruiser, Sirius (SP)
Sirius is the other Royal Navy maid collectors obsess over, and this SP gives her one of the cleaner frames in the set. Ruriko Aoki signed it. It trades just under the forty thousand yen mark, making it one of the stronger mid-tier signatures here.
9. Kearsarge (SP)
Kearsarge is a newer carrier with a striking design, and the SP treatment suits her palette. Yoshino Aoyama signed the card. It sits in the mid thirty thousand yen range, which is where most of this set’s most wanted SPs live.
8. Golden Hind (SP)
Golden Hind brings the pirate energy that Royal Navy collectors love, and her SP is one of the most distinctive pieces of art in the set. Akane Hyuga signed it. It runs around forty thousand yen, matching cards from much more famous characters, which tells you how hard the design lands.
7. Regensburg (SP)
Regensburg is pure Iron Blood style, and this SP is the card that got people talking about her outside the game. The signature comes from Hyosei. It sits just under thirty thousand yen, which makes it the best value in the upper half of this list.
6. Implacable (SP)
Implacable was one of the launch-week darlings of this set, spiking near eighty thousand yen before settling back into the forty thousand yen bracket. Yukana, one of the most recognizable voices in anime, signed it. That combination of a famous signature and a proven price spike keeps her on every want list.
5. Hindenburg (SP)
Hindenburg is the biggest SP story in the set, holding near eighty thousand yen long after release. Eriko Matsui signed the card. It is the most expensive signed SP here that is not attached to one of the secrets, which makes it the pick for collectors who want a top-tier card without secret-tier pricing.
4. Light Aircraft Carrier, Unicorn (SEC+)/(SP)
Unicorn is one of the most beloved shipgirls in the franchise, and she lands twice here, as a foil-stamped SEC+ secret and as a signed SP with its own artwork. Ai Kakuma signed the SP, because the secrets in this set carry a foil stamp instead of an autograph. The secret trades in the mid thirty thousands in yen as one of only four SEC+ cards, while the SP puts her signature within reach for the rest of us, which is why both halves keep selling.
3. Heavy Cruiser, Roon (SEC+)/(SP)
Roon comes as a pair too, with the foil-stamped SEC+ secret alongside a signed SP that uses different art. Satomi Satou signed the SP, and her secret had the loudest launch of the four, climbing level with Shinano in the first weeks after release. It has settled back the furthest of any SEC+ since then, so the secret is now the cheapest way into the club and the SP is the most affordable signature among these top four entries.
2. Aircraft Carrier, Enterprise (SEC+)/(SP)
Enterprise appears twice here, once as a foil-stamped SEC+ secret and once as a signed SP, each with its own artwork. Yui Ishikawa signed the SP, and she is also the voice behind the hand-signed serial AGR that sits at the very top of the set. The SEC+ holds around seventy thousand yen, and with the Gray Ghost AGR pointing all the attention back at her, Enterprise cards are the most talked-about in the whole release.
1. Aircraft Carrier, Shinano (SEC+)/(SP)
Shinano takes the top spot with both versions in demand, a foil-stamped SEC+ and a signed SP with different art. Mamiko Noto signed the SP, which is one of the best signature-to-character matches in the set. The secret sits near one hundred and fifty thousand yen and her SP is the priciest SP in the set, so Shinano owns both halves of this entry and the number one slot with it.
As a collector set, Vol. 2 is built differently from the first one: the four SEC+ secrets are foil-stamped design cards, all 41 signatures live on SPs, and the hand-signed serial AGR only exists in first-print boxes. Shinano’s secret sits around one hundred and fifty thousand yen today, which lands right next to the best card in the original Azur Lane set, the signed Baltimore SP. Vol. 1 still holds a strong upper tier with the Prinz Eugen and Zara signatures, so Vol. 2 does not blow it out, but Vol. 2’s middle is deeper, with a whole row of SPs between forty and ninety thousand yen. Call it a sequel that lives up to the name rather than one that replaces it, with the same ceiling, a thicker middle, and one serial-numbered Gray Ghost sitting above everything either set has printed.
