Dude. You seem like such a nice guy with how you reacted to getting no vol 13 and then the DBZ box being messed up. I really felt for you. I hope you got vol 13 man. I felt your pain though. God bless.
Just recently got into anime in general, I used to love dbz when I was a kid and I want to know what happens in the story now that I’m grown. This is perfect 👌
If you don't know - when the anime was airing in Japan, there was a change in director (and I think producer) that led to the anime having the Dragon Ball and Z split, as it was essentially a new series starting where the other left off. The manga didn't have that split naturally. But when Dragon Ball Z, the anime, was sold to America, it wasn't sold with the first Dragon Ball series included, hence it was introduced to most markets as Dragon Ball Z in the rest of the world. Translating and releasing the manga in those markets then borrowed the Z name to capitalize on the brand name recognition.
@AidedCreator21 it was common sense marketing at the time, but the franchise has long since outgrown the need for the rebrand. At least the 3in1 Dragon Ball release had the series collected all under 1 title. Shame about the censorship and the paper quality though.
@AidedCreator i prefer no Z aswell, mainly cause it's a pain to search for anything Dragon Ball pre-Z. if i just search "Dragon Ball" most of it is Z and Super.
I don't know why but I think having a combo of older and new volumes showing the different logos looks so cool and I hope to get some older volumes from used books stores, I think it just makes it cooler that they don't all look the same but maybe just me.
Amazon always finds a way to keep things that I do'nt need in good condition, in good condition, but when I order anything mildly fragile it looks like an angry gorilla packed it.
I feel like there’s like a 80% chance one or more volumes will be messed up with misaligned covers or multiple clone volumes. Also the box on my one piece box set was busted up the same way.
Volume 1 of DBZ is shorter because in Japan it was part of the same volume as the last volume of Dragonball. They didnt split up the series in the manga in Japan.
I buy a lot of manga at half price books. There you find both really old and new prints of books. I thought I was the only person bothered by the changing logos on the spine. My collection randomly changes from volume to volume what logos are on the side. Ps. I might have to pull the trigger on these box sets now. I've wanted to own all of dbz for years and it's to hard to find the individual volumes I still need in the wild.
the box sets are great, but it’s also good to get the sets of 3 on amazon. for example, on amazon, there’s a box set for part 1 of naruto (first 27 volumes) for about 130 bucks. but if you get the sets of 3, they cost about 12 dollars each, and 12 x 9 is about 108, which leads it to be less than the box set. this is probably only for naruto though. either way, getting box sets/sets of 3 is way better than individually buying volumes.
but sometimes it ain’t aesthetically pleasing. like the one piece manga spines don’t contain the same art the singles do. like the 3-1s only have luffy spines whereas the singles have different characters. guess it just depends if you have the extra cash to spend or not lol
kantoemlv i wrote this comment before actually receiving the books, and i didn’t realize that it’d be all three books in one. i thought it would have been the three different books in a box or something. i completely agree with you though, the individual books just look better and have a better feel than three books in one
There's actually a reason for that! As you've probably heard before, the whole 42-volume series is just called "Dragon Ball" in Japan. Only the anime was split into DB and DBZ. When Viz decided to split the manga the same way, the volumes didn't actually line up. Volume 17 of Dragon Ball, what we have as DBZ Volume 1, actually included the last two chapters of the 23rd Budokai, wrapping up the fight against Piccolo Jr. In order to keep the manga split more faithful to the anime, those two chapters were moved to Volume 16 so DBZ Vol 1 could start with Raditz.
Pre-ordered these 2 boxes on amazon few months ago, received them yesterday on release. Awesome boxes. Except for my DB box being slightly damaged probably due to shipping.
My dragon ball volume 10 came with four pages that was to big and they was also bent in like dog ears stuffed in the book… and it was sealed bran new, I guess the factory machine messed it up. Was very upsetting, but man they gave you two 12s… hope Viz gets their stuff together.
I bought the Viz 3in1's and I love them. The value was amazing. Some people don't like the paper quality but it doesn't bother me much as I'm careful with them. The other criticism is the spines creasing too much but I've reread them at least a dozen times and my spines still look good on the shelf. 10/10 would reccomend the 3 in 1s
How interesting 🤔, the condition of the packages I get from amazon are really good, but I got one from Right stuff and it wasn’t the best, some folded pages.
The first seven volumes of dragon ball form a picture of shenron/shenlong on the spines. The dragon is shown holding all seven dragon balls. Each othe the volumes has the dragon ball with the corresponding number of stars in it. Just a little fun fact for you.
7:40 i felt that,sometimes i get some manga on amazon and some volumes are beated the shit out.So never buy manga on amazon better search an official manga site in youre country
In brazil when you get all the mangas the image that forms behind them is Dragon ball written in the first til the last one. And also all the characters from the manga are there.
I would’ve bought the box set of z but I thaught the 3in1’s spine art is much more aesthetically pleasing lol and there cheaper. But the original dragon ball box set I had to get it’s was just to good ; )
I thought of going for this but the paper they use tend to go yellowish in time so I went with Viz Big edition... they used good quality paper and include colored part of the manga...
@@jackaghion9824 Certain parts are always censored. There's a title page with everyone throwing middle fingers at Cell that are changed to awkward fists. Boo throws a middle finger after he absorbs Vegetto (or Vegerot lol). And of course Mr. Satan is renamed to Hercule. There's never been a 100% uncensored release of the manga in English.
Here in Australia, both box sets on Amazon are $200 each, but the 3in1 volume collections totals cheaper. So personally if i ever collect the manga I'll probably be getting the ladder option.
I got no duplicate books inside my dragon ball manga box set but instead of it coming with the dragon ball collectors booklet that came with the dragon ball Z collectors booklet
Hey bro where did you purchase the box sets at? I can only find them available on Amazon and some other website put it doesn’t seem to legit. They’re all priced high as well
Great review definitely gonna get the box sets for myself. Also at 13:29 what was the super thick manga on the top-left shelf with all different colors for the spine?
Hi can anyone help me I’ve never seen dragon ball on dragon ball z and gt but I want to read the manga along with watching the episodes. How do you know which manga book goes to which episode in the anime?
regarding censorship, you probably need to look for violence/nudity, some tips: 1st volume of Dragon Ball and in Dragon Ball Z perhaps in the cell games
I bought the Italian version the second time I had removed the volume from the box, a corner of the box was torn and I had to put some scotch tape on it and then the pages are too thin but maybe that's just a Panini feature. It's a collection piece to put on a shelf and keep it there to read Death Note buy the volumes. Maybe I'll buy another one but Japanese that I will keep sealed Italian not sure
oh wow. thats crazy you didn't get a vol. 13. like what ware the chances of that happening. I went ahead and bought this before it sells out along with a bunch of other one punch manga vol. from amazon and im already hella nervous with amazon shipping. I usually buy my book from instocktrades but these all sold out super fast. Crossing my fingers.
Well at about 6:00 you said that the box sets save money but on Amazon if you get used very good instead of brand new paper back its basically the same and its cheaper then buying paper back like on the new DBS manga I just bought 6-9 for $24.50 which is an average of $5.10 but thats just me being nit picky and if your struggling and are really looking for the best price thats it
