Reference
“Naruto card game” does not describe one product. It describes five, made by four different companies across twenty years, and most of the confusion online comes from writing about them as though they were the same thing.
These guides are the evergreen half of this site. Where the news desk reports what changed on a given day, a guide answers a question that stays answered: what the game is, how a rule works, which line a card in your hand belongs to, what a rarity code means. Each one is revised in place when Bandai, Kayou or Cicaboom publish something new, and each carries the primary sources it was built from at the foot of the page.
Bandai's NARUTO CARD GAME does not release until June 2027, so much about it is still unknown. Where that is true, these guides say so rather than guessing.

The top of our Naruto Mythos price index is a common Kurenai Yuhi at $61.46 and a run of Mission cards at $34.87. Open the listings and the reason is shipping, not scarcity. Here is the ranking as it stands, the Secret and Mythos rares whose listings really are the card, and why the gold cards have no price at all.
