R.I.P Akira Toriyama.
A really underrated aspect of the 3 in 1 editions is that it doesn't seperate "Dragon Ball" & "Dragon Ball Z", just the like original Japanese releases it's all considered one series as "Dragon Ball"
That's cool and all but it's only a letter so it's not that much of a difference
@@projectmessiahIt’s not much of a difference but it keeps it true to the original release and arguably looks the nicest on the shelf
@@bigb0oski Agreed but thats no reason to consider getting arguably the worst currently accesible english release
I have the dragon ball box set vols 1-16, what vol does DBZ start in the 3 in 1?
Its also same with yugioh and yugioh duelist 3in1 which doesnt separate them
I was impressed with the extensive comparison you gave for all the different formats, their pros and their cons. I also liked the fact that there were no jokes, no long tangents, just factual information and your opinions mixed here and there, it allows for a better pacing overall. If all your videos are like this, you might be one of the best review channels for manga content.
agree. Superrr impressed with no nonsense, just how I prefer my reviews and comparisons
Loved the video!💕 Just started my comic book collection and found Toon Haven. They offer a huge variety of digital comics for every genre, and lifetime updates too!😍
They need to do a nice uncut 3 in 1 hardcover release like Darkhorse did for berserk. It's ridiculous there isn't currently a Dragon Ball release with both good print quality and uncensored.
If you think that's bad you should see how dirty they've done physical releases of the anime haha
@@sengan2475 Oh I know. I have the horribly cropped orange bricks of DBZ. They had one decent 4:3 bluray release they canceled. Then the new overly DNRd blu ray release that's also cropped. I used to have the good version of the HD S1 on XBL but they replaced that with the shitty new cropped version. It's wild that funimation can't just do a good release of what's their most popular IP, at least the original Dragon Ball and GT are decent.
Almost forgot to mention how they released a green tinted version of DBS Broly and refuse to even fix the digital versions.
@ben14326 the UK version has the green tint fixed, and a fan edit of the superhero 4k fixed the green tint also. Laughable that a pirated version is objectively better than their own 4k release in every region
Lol not even the manga release can get a decent release just like the home video release of it
An absolutely amazing series. Great structure and detailed description including everything a collector would potentially want to know when deciding for a version to get. I especially liked the concluding summary in the end to round off the previously said, which gives a nice final overview. Please keep up the great work.
Agreed, it really is amazing! I am happy to hear that you enjoy the structure and the concluding summary. I will continue doing this in future comparison videos since it was helpful! I really appreciate your kinds words. It means a lot and I will definitely keep it up!!
This.
I was always annoyed that Viz only released the Full Color editions for the Saiyan and Freeza saga's in English. They are available in full color for the full series in most other languages, but somehow not in English.... So I took matters into my own hands. I downloaded all of the digital full color mangas of all the other saga's in English (Boyhood saga, Demon Piccolo, Android/ Cell and Majin Buu) And had them all professionally printed into volumes at an online copyshop. I had two volumes printed every month and have been doing so for over a year. I am going by the Kanzenban chapter orders with these. Needless to say they look just like they came from an official publisher! Very happy with them! I will post a video on my collection once it's complete (only 4 more majin buu saga volumes to go and I have the whole series in color complete!)
Well done! Where did you find the downloadable English color versions?
Any update on this?
@dutchbondfan any update?
Any update on this?
@@Gamer8837 I got the scans of Mangadex! But when I post the link my comment doesnt show up. Shouldnt be hard to find! My collection of colored volumes is now complete!
The boxset is great, but personally I think the VizBigs for DBZ are pretty underrated! The page quality is great and the action looks awesome in the bigger size. I also really like the silhouettes on the spines of Goku :)
The Vizbigs are definitely the best in terms of print quality and the color pages are beautiful! Almost made me want to overlook the fact that they are the most censored edition. Agreed about their larger format. Definitely see why a lot of people may choose to pick them up!
@@AnimeCollective Some of it is obvious though, like the comparison between censoring underaged nudity in a book sold to kids and high schoolers is a pretty odd criticism.
@katesperinck1401
Yeah I don't rally care about that kind of stuff. What I do find weird is that they censor things like Android 17 with a gun, but leave in things like Yamcha straight up having Geros arm rammed through his chest
@@katesperinck1401 Any censorship is bad censorship. I recommend you read put down manga and go pick up a copy of 1984 since you need a reality check.
@@JasonOwensYT So you support selling what is essentially pedophilia to minors? Usually the "any censorship is bad" crowd do think it's acceptable, but they don't normally say the quiet part out loud like you are lol. I don't think I need the reality check here aha
Im currently considering getting the box sets, Im sure this will be a good one.
The comic book versions were my first manga reads as a kid, and I really enjoyed the first full color edition book.
The box sets are great and I really enjoyed the first Full Color too! And man that's awesome that the comic book issues were one of your first reads as a kid. I grew up with Dragon Ball as a kid too so it was one of my first as well!
The box set is heavily censored! Get the 3 in 1 instead. Less censored. They only censored the middle finger with Bulma! You still get the nudity and crude jokes.
@@AnimeCollective Hello :)
it hurt to lose Akira Toriyama
Amazing comparison! This is gonna help a lot of people.
I'm very happy you mentioned the censorship aspect. It's very sad and unacceptable imo that Viz have not released a fully uncensored version of the Dragon Ball manga in English, I find it insulting to the original creator and to the fans. This type of weird unnecessary censorship is one of the main reasons why I collect manga in Japanese only, I don't want to support English publishers when they make such choices, and this is Dragon Ball we're talking about here, not some weird obscure forgotten manga, it is what it is.
I've mentioned before that I haven't had the chance to get into DB yet, but I'm looking forward to reading it! If I ever collect the manga I'll either go with the regular Japanese tankobons or the beautiful Kanzenbans.
Thank you so much and I really hope so!!! 😄 There's so many editions to choose from and agreed about the censorship. I would love to get a completely original, uncensored version some day, but may end up getting the Japanese volumes like you in the future once I complete my learning. Here's hoping we get a fully uncensored release in the future!
Do like me and buy the full color versions in Japanese. That way you'll have all of the Dragonball and Dragonball Z mangas in full color which is the BEST option💯
From what I can gather, they ended up having to censor them due to parents complaining and threatening to sue them if they didn't censor bulmas boobies and Gokus Weiner.
I don't mind the regular volume being censored. Gotta do what you gotta do but if I'm paying for a colored version or a vizbig, I want the original unedited, uncensored version. I'm an adult, I'm not going to faint if I see Gokus penis!
Agreed. Some people don't get it, and think "you just want to see boobs and blood, it's not necessary" - they're missing the point. The point is that an artist's original work should NEVER be censored for sensitivities of some western audience who live in bubbles and can't handle either of the above like adults without losing their minds. I don't care if it's nudity, blood, or the whole HFIL / Mr. Satan/Hercule thing - if you cannot show it in its entirety, uncensored, then you should not be showing it at all. That's my mindset. This is Akira Toriyama's work (RIP, Toriyama-sensei) and now more than EVER I'm concerned about his work being watered down by western agents. I want every line exactly as he drew it - exactly as he intended - with not one single change aside from translation. If I can't get that in English, I'd rather go through the trouble of learning Japanese - not just for Dragonball, but for ALL Japanese content that either doesn't get brought over to the west or is censored by the west. I taught myself Mandarin Chinese, so it wouldn't be the first time I've learned a language.
You know it's funny, 10 years ago I went to Japan and I could SWEAR I bought a volume of Dragonball while in Tokyo. I either did or I picked it up and almost bought it - if I have it, it's in a box in storage somewhere - but I don't remember at all if I actually pulled the trigger on the purchase or not. I also recall seeing a shirt in Tokyo of dead Yamcha in a crater, and THAT one I should have bought.
@@kalevipoeg6916 I don't mind if there's a censored version out there so parents don't go apeshit that their little tykes saw Gokus Weiner or Bulmas boobs, but can we at least get one edition where there are no edits, no watered down dialogue and presented exactly as it was always supposed to be presented?
I'm an adult, I would like to read the comic as it was intended to be read.
This is without a doubt the most in depth guide I have seen on the Dragon Ball manga releases.
despite the low paper and print quality, to me the 3in1 has a good cover design. I love the simple typeface and variety of character featured.
These videos are great. I loved your video on Death Note as well. Just like I would choose Black Edition for Death Note, I would totally go VIZ BIG for DB / DBZ. There was a contradiction in the cropping details: the video first states VIZ BIG crops horizontally the most, but the summary right after says VIZ BIG crops horizontally the least.
I loved how you showed the price and overall diving through the difference in this video! Very informative and fun!
It really means a lot to hear that the video was helpful and fun! Thank you so much!!!
I've been buying the manga the past few months and reading them and I was buying the full color manga, which doesn't end cleanly into a next volume. If you buy the full color manga and aren't just a collector and are actively reading you'll need to buy volume 12 if the singles afterwards since the last full color manga ends part way through 12. From that point you can continue on into the next part of whatever method you choose to take, which in my case I went with the vizbigs so volume 5 of the vizbigs.
After spending some time with large-format, full-color English comics recently, that Full Color edition is looking really nice. I did a comparison, and the 8 Full Color books cover DBZ volumes 1-11 (and a few chapters of volume 12). That's about 43 percent of the DBZ saga, and I think that's a great start. There is one negative: It appears the introductory material (such as character bio's and summary of story) that is at the start of the normal manga volumes does NOT appear at the front of the Full Color volumes. I'm not sure it's included at all!
A thoroughly researched comparison, I appreciate your attention to detail. Nicely done.
I’m collecting the 3 in 1’s because they are most comfortable to read. Poor quality paper is an accurate description, but it gives a retro feel and I enjoy the flexibility and lightness of it. The digitized color editions don’t do anything for me, and the original color pages in the Viz Big, with the watercolor-esque, copic marker aesthetic, are lovely, but too many drawbacks as you stated with the censorship.
I can’t wait until the DBZ boxset is out of the out of print hell. Btw, great video as always. Your videos are very informative and helpful!! I appreciate your effort you put into all your videos! Thank you!
Man yeah, it has been in and out of stock a lot as of late! I really hope so too and hope you are able to pick it up soon! Thank you so much!!! You are so very kind to say all of this and it means a lot!
still punching myself in the nuts for not getting it at the same time as the original DB boxset
@@FuriousKAMEX is it painful?
@@Flabby555 no I like cbt
@@FuriousKAMEX u kinky?
Great video! It's handy seeing all the differences laid out between the releases. I kinda like the Vizbigs, but they're so large, it's kinda fiddly when I read them right before I go to sleep.
Yeah man... I really wish they'd continue on with the Full Color releases. I loved those.
I already have all of DB and DBZ in the "tankobon" releases (the single volume books), all of Dragon Ball (not Z) in the Vizbig, and the first 3 volumes of the 3in1s. I also have the entire series in the "soshuhen" Japanese release (the collection made to emulate the original Shonen Jump printings... I think ).
I spend way too much money on Dragon Ball stuff, lol ( _been a fan for over 30 years!_ ).
I'm waiting to get the box sets when (if) they go on sale but wow those full colour editions are gorgeous. These breakdowns are super good, so detailed and answers all the questions I could possibly have. Excellent work as always!
Thank you so much as always!!! You are always so kind to me!
I also waited to get the box sets and hope they go on sale so you can pick them up soon. And agreed, the Full Color Editions are beautiful and they have such a nice print quality. I really appreciate it and hope you have a great weekend!
@@AnimeCollective You're very welcome! You guys deserve a ton of recognition for the professional quality and interesting content you put out consistently!! And your concise and clear delivery is always super helpful!!
I'll be supporting you guys!
well said, and the full color editions ARE gorgeously beautiful entirely so!
10:59 Weirdly enough, my edition of the 3-in-1 has the middle finger censored. Don't know if it's an earlier or later printing, but kind of dumb considering other things are still uncensored.
Loved the breakdown. What a shame that there hasn't been one definitive edition for such an influential manga like Dragon Ball in English. Not releasing the full color editions is especially annoying considering that it is done and released in various other languages.
Tinfoil hat time: I wonder if the licensing issue is just an excuse, and the full color editions not being released in English has more to do with the original translator being arrested on some pretty heinous charges. The last release of the full color manga was in January 2017, less than a month after he was arrested and days before he was formally charged. Maybe Viz wants a new translation before any further release of the original Dragon Ball manga? I mean, I sure as hell would.
It wouldn't exactly be difficult to have someone else translate them... They already had several other editions they can use as a base, for crying out loud! :(
One would think the translation should still be pretty much the same.
Thanks for the insight. I picked up deluxe editions of Berserk based on your recommendation. This video was really helpful because it seemed like Vizbigs were the best option but the censorship is a deal breaker. The mature elements of the entire Dragonball franchise are so light that stripping them away dilutes both series.
Loved this analysis. My personal preference is the 3 in 1s despite paper issues. Prefer the covers, it not being split into two series and the overall presentation paper not withstanding.
Phenomenal break down. Dragonball has been released and re-released over and over again, and with Toriyama's passing, I felt as though I owed it to myself to read his original work. The box sets were the most attractive to me, but I wanted to be sure before spending that much. Censorship is unacceptable for me; so coupling that with the print quality and overall cost, it looks like the box sets are the best option. It's just too bad they didn't finish the series in color with the Full Color Editions. Those are gorgeous. Thanks for the great video!
Absolute great breakdown! Glad to know I’ve been picking up the paperbacks one by one and might eventually get some color editions down the road
incredibly helpful, exactly what i was looking for, very well done video! thank you!
Man… I really wanted full color of Dragonball
11:04, it’s censored in the 3-in-1s too
Been looking at which ones to pick up, loved the video, very informative!
I needed this. Thank you very much. I’m planning on getting the box sets because they look cool and I also like the mini gifts that come with it
This is my new favorite channel now. I'm loving these series. Awesome collection by the way.
They need to release all the color manga!!!!!!
I collect the full colour volumes and I'm still holding out hope for the rest of the series to be done. This video was very helpful though, so I ordered the box sets as well.
great video! kinda sucks that there's like no definitive way to collect the dragon ball manga in english and that collecting the anime's kind of a pain too but i still love how each release has its own charms.
Very nice breakdown! I've owned the Vizbigs for a few years, but I've had eyes for both the boxsets and the Full Color editions. I just don't like to double dip, so I've stuck with the Vizbigs.
Thank you so much!!! I definitely feel you there! I love the print quality of the Vizbigs so they are really nice editions.
I opted for the 3-in-1's for the original dragon ball. They're pretty convenient and super cheap so it made the most sense. My only disappointment with them is that they don't have the colour chapters. The way they've decoloured them makes Goku look black in a few chapters which is a bit weird lol
Ok so what I’m going to do is collect the 3 in 1s first since they cover dragon ball and most of dragon ball z I don’t really care about the print quality too much I’ve had my experience with 3 in 1s they aren’t that bad and as soon as I finish collecting the 3in1s I’ll go on and collect the full colour mangas since they look cool and they aren’t too expensive really appreciate the video this cleared my understanding on collecting dragon ball a whole lot more thanks
i absolutely LOVED the VizBig Editions, i had vol. 3&4 to get through a missing season of DBZ for my binge sessions. i gave the two volumes to my cousin and she loves them as much as i do!
Thanks for the memories toriyama
This is EXACTLY what I needed! Thanks!
I would like to add that the VizBigs don't have all of the colored chapters intact. There's many chapters that are still printed in greyscale (example: chapter 3). And there's the occasional chapters that have the limited color pages intact, but then are missing the pages with full color at the beginning of the chapter (example: chapter 44).
The original colored pages were the main selling point for me, so it's a shame that they didn't get that right
Nice video. I have the original 90s comic-style booklets that I bought from a local gaming store, and it's what I credit for getting me into manga.
Always felt like no one knew about those original US releases. One thing I always wondered about about is if any of the newer versions are edited for US audiences, so I'm glad you covered that. The comic-style ones contained a few instances of nudity, so I wonder if those versions were the only truly unedited US releases.
It's also worth mentioning that the VizBigs do not have the same coloring as the original releases (and perfect edition). Some of the originally colored pages are left in grayscale and some others are colored differently.
Like how shenlong is green then gray on the goku say are you talking about kuririn chapter?
My fav to collect were the comic editions and the original manga editions with the translations with the name suffixes left in like -san and -sama. I was so sad when the rest of the Piccolo saga and Android saga and forward weren't collectable in comic format.
A very in depth analysis of Toriyama-sans Manga! Great job! 🙌🏻 I’d probably go for the box sets though they seem to be out of print here in Canada.
Another great comparison! Definitely helps me think about what I wanna do when I wanna read a series I haven't done yet
Rest in peace Akira toriyama
I’ve recently finished up the collection with the single volumes since it’s the format I chose and to read the series in personally, they are really good even though the translation isn’t perfect.
I've been trying to figure out the differences for hours now, and then I find this. Incredible video. Still super torn between the individual volumes and the vizbigs. The color pages and the grammatical corrections are pretty nice, but I love the idea of the "most true to original."
Just buy the box’s
These comparison videos look pretty helpful. I only watched this one so far.
Very interesting video! I have all the singles though I bought them over time during college. I also have some of the VizBig versions and a couple of the Full Color versions.
Thanks a ton, this was super helpful!
That synopsis was as precise as a Stanley Kubrick production 😂. So I bought Dragonball and Dragonball Z in the summer of 20 at the height of corona I paid $300 each on eBay oh well now they’re back in stock . I will have to get the VizBigs I love the perfect size and it’s like losing a child when I have to cut open shrink wrap from any new graphic novel or box set 😂
I have collected the German version when I grew up, but since they‘re 25 years old and the translations are really dated (removing Dr. Slump references for instance since the Manga hadn’t been released in Germany), I felt the Vizbigs were an appropriate update. I can take some mild censorship (considering the German version wasn‘t) in exchange for a more accurate translation, better paper quality a bigger format and most importantly a restoration of most of the color pages. In an ideal world, there wouldn’t be any censorship and all the color pages as well as the „new“ Kanzenban ending of almost 20 years now. Maybe even a companion volume that includes Jaco the Galactic Patrolman and Neko Majin.
This is the only series I split between two editions. I have Z in Vizbig and Dragon Ball in 3-in-1 since it’s the most affordable and I don’t mind Z’s censorship where a lot of Dragon Ball’s humor/charm kinda gets stunted by it. The downside is my inner ocd hates that the last 3-in-1 overlaps with the first vizbig
Wow, I didn’t even know about the full color editions. Another great video!
I didn't know about them for quite some time as well! Definitely one of the lesser known releases. Thank you so much!!!
Honestly, how can you not go for those gorgeous box sets? Especially that Z box set.
I really love the box sets too! And agreed, the DBZ box set looks awesome!
mainly the z box set.
Thanks for this. You helped me make my decision. I went with the box sets for both. Found a brand new Dragon Ball box set for $108 after tax and shipping on eBay. Then I found a brand new DBZ box set on Facebook marketplace for $120 but the seller accepted my offer of $100. Grand total of $208 for both box sets.
Good video, I collected all the 3 in 1, I'm so proud
Wow!!! Very informative you literally covered everything... I just ordered the first 3 in 1 of Dragonball.. I plan on getting the boxed sets as well.. I'm just starting my library and Anime is totally new to me lol... I started with Leather Bound Classics I'm now getting into Anime with Dragonball and DBZ also I have the first 5 One Punch Man singles.. Can't wait to get more purchases on my shelf I will definitely be using your channel as a reference, thank you
Really comprehensive video! Great job
I was really divided with this one. I usually collect manga in 3 in 1 editions so it was between the 3 in 1s or the Vizbigs. I love the colored pages included in the Vizbigs, however I also don't like when some series get censored heavily. I think I'm going with the 3 in 1s, as they're not only cheaper, but overall more portable to me, and they're also not heavily censored. I don't mind the thin pages or print quality, but I did notice the color pages grey scaled in the singles looked darker than the 3 in 1s, so that did bother me. So, yeah, 3 in 1s it is.
This is so informative. Thank you so much for this! Awesome video!!
Thank you, this video was a massive help in deciding which route I should eventually take. :)
Thank you so much for this. I liked and subbed. This helps me choose the best version of manga for me! Btw, i heard vizbig does not have all the originally colored chapters in colour is that true
Wow incredibly informative! Thank you!
Love these types of videos , great content as always, keep it up 👌
Thank you so much!!! I will definitely keep it up!
Beautiful! Thank you for putting so much work and effort into collecting and creating these videos.
Also, when the sneaker collection video coming? 👀👀
Thank you so much!!! It really means a lot and I appreciate it!!
That's so awesome that you mentioned sneakers! I didn't know if anyone would ever be interested in one on the channel (I still sneak them in from time to time into my room tours and review anime sneaker collabs), but it's great to know that you would be interested in one because it's another passion of mine.
@@AnimeCollective i noticed them! You really surprised me when you casually mentioned Air Mags in one of your videos. I was like WHAAAAT!!
Wow this is incredibly detailed. Thanks for doing this review.
Awesome video! You went very in-depth without being too long winded! Keep up the great work!
As a huge dragon ball fan this video even tho it's 5 months old is very helpful thank you so much sub earned ❤️
Hi i just wanted to say keep doing this series of comparing cause its very cool
Hey, thank you so much!! I will definitely will keep them coming and have a lot more already in the works!
I was about to be super upset about the censorship for the vizbigs, mostly cause I already bought a couple and was planning on collecting the entire series through them so it's a bit late to make a switch. But if you look at it this way it's essentially just the more anime accurate version. If you grew up watching the show and still to this day love it and don't mind the censorship you've already seen there, really the vizbigs are the same experience you would be getting watching the show. I of course still prefer least censored regardless but it depends on how you look at it.
Great tips, so for physical I will go with the colored and the big edition. Digital I will go with individual and color. Thanks
I'm currently collecting the colored version. I do hope they continue it. Because it would be the ultimate version if they did
Thank you very much for the in depth video. Hope to see a lot more content in the near future.
I used to collect the ‘Ultimate Editions’ of Dragonball in Dutch, which contain the color pages, have great quality paper and print, aren’t censored as much and even have annotations in the margins which explain certain cultural aspects of the manga (pretty much the most ideal version). Then the publisher Glénat decided to end Dragonball before the Saiyan saga (so basically, only the Dragonball part, not Z), whereas they did do the complete series in the French version. Glénat used to pull that stuff a lot, starting a series for the Dutch-speaking audience and then quitting after 13-14 volumes, leaving the story incomplete. They did the same for One Piece ending at volume 15, whereas the French version still goes very strong.
So not having the full series has always frustrated me, even if DBZ is my least favourite part of the series (after the Frieza saga) and I’m looking for a new version to collect and I already kinda landed on the box sets. It’s nice to see you recommend that one as well (I have the One Piece box sets so I’m aware of the great manufacturing quality, but it is nice to see it’s also the least censored version)!
2:25 I have that version of the first two volumes. I will not get rid of them because they are uncensored.
I decided to buy the full color manga in Japanese since they have the full story on DB and DBZ and when the boxset gets re-released I’ll buy those together for DB and DBZ in english. One to read and one to admire and have with the rest of my dragonball collection.
This series is going to be amazing!!
I've got all the full colour so far, and all the paper back, I did have a few of the graphic novels but I tossed them because I thought they where the same as the paper backs beside being a odd size, so I filled in the one I already had collected, I've just started the Viz big, but I'm thinking I'll just skip the 3n1s, but back to the full colour man I really wish they finish the cell saga it has a ending, what do you think about the super manga, do you think we will get vizbig or 3n1s of them? Lastly thank you for letting me know what the difference between them very helpful.
rest in peace Akira Toriyama
I love these types of videos. They really help me choose the best option. Keep up the good work!❤❤
Thank you !
Thank you !
Great show guys, thank you
Just wanted to point out an error, respectfully… the 3 in 1s are the least censored version. Less censored than the single releases. The video makes it seem like the 3 in 1s and the singles are at the same level of censorship, but they’re not.
Although not in English, I have the full Dragonball/Dragonball Z full colour, in Japanese.
Smaller volumes with dust jackets, but completely uncensored, with the art in glorious colour.
It also collects the whole thing.
Really recommend it.
I love this comparison so much I need more of them.
I would love to see a comparison of the spines of viz media manga's different logos.
Man that's so awesome to hear! I definitely have a lot more videos like this one on the way.
Good to know about the comparison of spines! Something that I can definitely review, even thinking it may be a good addition to the manga collecting video I have coming soon!
Amazing video. Very clear and objective. We need more of this 😁.
I really appreciate it your kind words!!! 😄 More videos like this are definitely on the way!
2024 and no new info on full color arcs :( i especially want a full collection of dragonball start to finish in full color to display in honor of our beloved akira toriyama. May he rest in peace.
I've got the 3 in 1 set. I want a larger format like the Vizbigs but I'm holding out hoping they'll put out a hardcover set like what Dark Horse is doing with Berserk and Trigun.
The collection looks incredible all together in one spot.
Fantastic video, very helpful, thanks.
This is a great break down video! I have a hardcover individual copy of volume 1 Dragon Ball Z and I can’t find it anywhere online to see what the value of it is. Any suggestions?
This video is really awesome ! As a european I learned a lot about the american edition, honestly i'm surprised to learn that Viz media US split the manga in 2 different manga to feat the anime adaptation, that's really strange because I think that this is the only country with that particularity...
Thanks for this! I really want to read the manga being a fan of the anime and this video was really helpful
Great video and well explained! Thanks a ton
I personally decided to collect the spin-off or retelling manga "Dragon Ball SD (strongly deformed" in chibi style, which covers DB and DBZ and also has some elements of DBS randomly thrown in. It's a FULLY COLORED comedic retelling of the original manga series.
great review! very detailed and explained well, thanks!
