Since Berserk and Vinland Saga both have deluxe editions, Vagabond should join them so that the Big 3 of Seinen can all be in deluxe. But please keep the spine art.
nah the vizbig editions are pretty good by themself
@@kingfish0074they do have quite a lot of gutter loss tho
@@ReySully what is "gutter loss"?
@@kingfish0074Ik but hardcovers would be nice
@@elgwninjaviz needs hardcover for vagabond and dbz both
Yes. 100%. Omnibus formats are the best way to get new readers into manga. So many people, like regular American comic readers, read manga like Akira and Berserk as their first mangas due to the format. No joke the format got a lot of people to read Berserk over the quality of Berserk.
You know I didn’t even think about that, that is very true the fact that you can get an iconic series in a nice edition usually for a good price, has definitely brought more new readers to manga, excellent point
@I-Will-Destroy-U I just looked at my browser history the original title of the video used to be "Do we need more MANGA Deluxe Editions..."
I got the berserk deluxe editions because it was an easy way to get the manga as a first time reader, instead of having to hunt down old manga volumes that might be out of print and be more costly to get.
It just grabs yoyr attention. Everyone asks me about the books now. No one did before😊
@@turtleanton6539 False idols, but if you get the conversion, you get the conversion 😅
I’d buy a two in one or omnibus for the kingdom manga if it ever gets an English release
Can’t wait for the Vinland saga deluxe edition. Both berserk and Vinland saga deluxe edition will be next to each other peak fiction.
Niiiiice😊
The English hardbacks already feel like a deluxe edition in terms of quality
@@daddy_1453Hardcovers feel always like deluxe editions as they’re very rare. Rarely any manga get hardcovers, so when some manga gets one it’s really special. Also nearly none of the popular stuff hardcovers so they’re less common in most peoples collections.
GANTZ needs hardcover
There should be more deluxe edition where each arc has its own design or color
Oooof
Sometimes it’s too mismatch for the shelf.. I like the uniformity
Plus some arcs doesn’t just fit in perfectly with the omnibus. Berserk golden age arc starts at the end of volume 1. So it’s 2 arcs in one book
Like the jojo hardcovers?
If they did that map cover for the OP deluxe editions would be cool if they made it the OP map and then have have like an Indian jones red dot line following the crew with each new vol.
In Italy, they once reprinted the berserk deluxe edition volume that contains the Eclipse, and they made it the same leather hardcover thing, but it was red instead of black, with black letters and instead of the same symbol that the other books have at the front cover, it had the crying egg, it was pretty cool. Of course it was just a special edition for that one volume of berserk deluxe, since it is most people's favorite part
It had to be two volumes though because the Griffith eclipse stretches between two of the big books.
I want to see a zom100 deluxe edition that's in the literal form of the bucket lists that the characters create or, like for spyxfamily, a type of portfolio, secret file edition for the series
Should do a deluxe edition of one piece with connecting spines, they could show all the characters or even connecting cover art for a world map
P.S. deluxe grimoires for black clover would be awesome
@I-Will-Destroy-U true, but if they do 3 in 1's it would be just over 30 some odd volumes. Which isn't as bad
I think the Dark Horse deluxe are extremely easy to read. The only bigger edition I find hard to read are the big colossal editions of Attack on Titan, they’re very heavy and because they don’t have a hard cover they’re hard to hold. I’ve never seen that deluxe edition of AOT, are they brand new? They weren’t out a few months ago, at least I couldn’t find them.
I hope I’m not the only one but I want Kimi Ni Todoke as a deluxe or even omnibus edition! I don’t tend to go for manga that I know I’ll love because of the sheer length of the physical volume releases 😭
I'm looking at Gantz Deluxe Editions from Dark Horse 🤘
I hope so😊
Id love to see Black Butler in delux. Something in a similar style to Girl from the other side
Yeah the one piece,yu yu hakusho,naruto,slam dunk,haikyuu,vagabond,gantz,eden it's an endless world,lone wolf and cub deluxe would be great,but viz doing deluxe is very rare
I hear there was going to be a Vinland Saga boxset so I stopped buying them at 2 volumes. I’m even more excited to hear they are releasing deluxe editions.
This would be amazing if it really does come out but I’m here for your whole journey to become a famous yt
I'd love an oversized deluxe edition of GANTZ. The 3 in 1 omnibus editions are so small and hard to read. Astro Boy could also benefit from this as well.
Now that Kodansha is jumping into the space of Deluxe editions, I could definitely see AOT getting one. Dark horse is wrapping up both Blade of the Immortal and Berserk deluxes in the winter so I think they’ll announce another alongside Trigun. I would love to see deluxes of the following:
Kodansha - AOT or GTO
Dark Horse - Gantz, MPD Psycho, Eden, Lone Wolf & Cub
The thing with the Vinland saga omnibus is that the colors of the spines are really cool so I'll have to make that decision later on when I eventually buy Vinland saga
Faxx😊
Its hard, because some series would be a bit overkill for a deluxe hardcover, but certain series certainly do well in the oversized format. I am excited for Trigun deluxe and I think its a great way to rerelease it. I think the difference is dark horse has so far done the deluxe edition right. Where as some of these paperback/omnibus releases being called 'deluxe' or 'collector's' doesn't quite live up to it 😅
It also has to do with price as well. They don't want it to cost too much cuz otherwise not enough people will buy it. The publishing rights is already costly as it is. For example Sailor Moon's author released Eternal Editions in paper back (with glossy paper) which is similar to Deluxe Editions and Naoko Takeuchi editions which are paper back editions but of a lesser quality.
I agree. It's probably why only a handful of series from publishers will get these kinds of releases.
Agreed. Needs hardcover
@@spiritcircle9599 Yup. Until more people are actually interested in manga than we will only get a few limited editions.
I would love for slam dunk to get those revised editions that came out in japan cuts it down from 31 to 20 volumes with new cover art for each volume
I've been holding off from getting the one piece box sets because I've had that same thought. Like if the release the last single and the first deluxe edition on the same day or something.
I told myself once a 5th box set comes out its time to stop holding out and just get those.
Have you seen the delux editions for 'The girl from the other side' ? Honestly love the design, I have the 3 so far and waiting on the last to release! Each cover is different and gold seign is different as well!
I've Never Read that series but YES those deluxe editions look Amazing, I thought about giving that series a chance just because I Loved the Look of the Deluxe Editions so much
@@DanielPeppers It's a lovely read! The art hits that certain itch for old/dark fantasy stories. I will say it does hurt the wrist after prolong reads so that's definitely a draw back you mentioned lol I hope you like it if you give it a try~
I would say yes for the sole reason that the ordinary single volumes are too small for my damaged eyes to decipher haha. I can't read mass market paperback novels anymore either, I can only read the hardcovers or larger paperbacks.
While I dont own the JoJo series yet. I do like how every season or story ark has a unique look. Maybe they could do something like that.
3:23 if one piece manga have deluxe edition, ahh we had another masterpiece
I’ll buy every version if I like the series, I have the deluxe of Berserk, plus the regular tankōbons, plus digitally on the Dark Horse app. If they make a deluxe of Gantz I’ll buy all those even though I have the omni’s.
I only have the first 3 volumes of Vinland that I bought over a year and half ago, I haven’t started to read it yet so didn’t bother buying more yet.
I have the ghost in the Shell deluxe editions and they are awesome!
They need to release all of the main stream Mangas in color it adds so much to the story like the Attack on Titan color ones.
i’m sure you’ve seen it by now but it seems like they’re acting on what you suggested, as book 3 onward of vinland saga deluxe seems to be in a black color which is different from the red of 1 & 2
As soon as I bought Vinland saga vol 1 I stopped collecting them. I hate the cheap cardboard texture of the covers and the yellowish paper. I’m definitely getting the deluxe editions though. The paper quality looks nice too
the deluxe editions of vinland do look nice. however they are much bigger then the 2in1's we have right now. so they would be more of a collector item to me then to read. i wish we had single volumes for vinland. i find that the 2in1's are not great quality. i've had 2 volumes separate from the spines from just the 2nd read through of them.
I realized I don’t really like big deluxe editions. Battle Angel: Alita was difficult to read so I sold it and kept old Viz editions even though it’s mirrored. I’m happy with current hard cover Vinland Sagas.
Great video I'm actually working on a similar video . This is a hot topic in western comics & has been for like 5 years
I appreciate it, yeah it’s a really interesting topic, Good Luck on your video, I’ll be sure to check it out when you release it
@@DanielPeppers sounds good thanks man , I'm just gonna talk about the trends in western comics & just want the manga community can expect going forward
I would have loved a twelve-volume hardcover release of Yu Yu Hakusho based on its Japanese kanzenban release like Fullmetal got or a twenty-two volume hardcover release of Yu-Gi-Oh like the Japanese bunkoban release. They'd bring those series into the modern day quite gracefully. Unfortunately, Yu Yu Hakusho only got a basic reprint and Yu-Gi-Oh's was forced into the regular Viz 3-in-1, which is an even worse fate. These are series that deserve more love than they get by their publisher.
I own all the single volumes for Berserk. Yes the Deluxe versions look nice, But I can't get comfortable on my couch or bed and read it do to the size and weight of each book. The biggest I will go for hardcovers / Deluxe versions or whatever you want to call them are Fist of The North Star and Fullmetal Alchemist
Currently ı dont have any one piece physically, because I still live with my family. When I have my own space I am buying them . Lately I've really been into bookbindibg and leather covers and stuff and I am planning to do a makeover for one piece.
I was planning to do just the last saga but I will see when the time comes 😂 in my mind I have this all leather bound one piece volumes, all in different colors and with different subtle art including the sun, moon, planets, sea, pirating and treasure maps. Yeah I know not very likely that I can do that but it is my dream basically 😅 ı am a crafty person though I will at least try it
I just want something collection worthy and unique, ı hope I can do it.
Blue seed is one I want but I see a jojo's going before that
I dont think I could get ridd of my old books for delux edition. I spend too much time and money on these XD (also emotional attachment). But I still consider buying ones that I dont own at all
I see the CLAYMORE manga, you have a great taste in manga my dude, I have all the 13 deluxe editions of BERSERK and all the VizBig editions of VAGABOND, and I really want to have Claymore and HELLSING deluxe editions in my collections.
Oversized art is the reason to upgrade, these books are small compared to an American Omnibus
This guy deserves to have atleast a million subscribers
Honestly don't think a deluxe edition of one piece will come mainly because I feel like they would have done one for a series like Naruto already. Say what you will about Naruto but it was immensely popular in the west for a long time so if any series deserved it by now for VIZ it would be that series.
Fairy Tail needs a brown leather bound style book like Vinland, slap some magic circles around it and make it have some sort of scaling pattern on the spine or something and it would be great. Too bad the popularity of the series is low now
I get that not every manga can't get a hardcover, I do wish that was a reality. I still wish the colossal editions were hardcover and it would be worth the extra money to have such a huge book in hard cover. Maybe it's because I started collected manga fairly recently but it would be nice if practically every manga had a hardcover at the very least, especially since I'm psychotic and checking the front, back and spine that there's no slight scuff or slightly tearing or creasing on the book before I even make a purchase.
I see in my dreams "Hajime no Ippo" coming out in english as 2 in 1 deals. Man, I would've bought every single one.
The drifting classroom
I would spend all of my money so fast on a deluxe edition of One Piece! Hopefully after the series ends.
So that’s what the deluxe looks like, I just ordered 1-4 of the 2 in 1s because I’ve been waiting forever to see what the deluxe looks like, and got tired of waiting: Of course they release a sneak peak of it after I bought the 2 in 1s 😅.
Also I’m glad I didn’t buy the Hellsing deluxe because they are reprinting the singles .
I have been there before 😂 wait and wait then cave then boom they announce or release info about a series
Yeah I’ve seen the singles are getting reprinted while I think reading singles is more enjoyable than deluxe at least I did get a great deal on the three volume deluxe editions so I’m not that bummed but yeah if I didn’t have them I would go singles all the way with Hellsing
@@DanielPeppersyup not the first time it happened to me 😂😂
And yeah man I totally agree, deluxes go hard 🔥 but nothing beats the original trade paperbacks especially if the deluxes are kinda bland like what you said about the berserk deluxe.
I feel like deluxe should be mandatory option if it’s like mobile suit gundam origin situation.
-the original paperbacks got canceled and hard to find
- the deluxes arent $50
- they are great quality while not feeling heavy.
- and they look straight up breathtaking on the Shelf’s, each volume looks unique
yay german attack on titan cameo
I have been dwelling on the idea of starting to collect deluxe manga. I started with Hellsing with the first book about less than a year ago. Would Vinland saga be worth it with the new deluxe coming out?
It Honestly comes down to your preference, Do you like the covers on the 2 in one's released now or the Cover of the deluxe because (we don't know for sure but if it's like Hellsing or Berserk) It'll probably be the same cover for all the deluxe Volumes but you get Bigger pages and the Art in Vinland is Amazing But It'll probably be at Least Two Years Behind on Releases compared to 13 volumes we currently have of the Hardcover Vinland editions now So It's up to you but all I recommend is you absolutely need to read Vinland Saga It's Really Great!
@@DanielPeppers Thanks for the reccomendation! And yeah, I much prefer the deluxes over the 2-in-1s, so these deluxes are definitely going on my list to buy in the future.
I think if you already have the series it's way less worth buying it again as a deluxe edition. Unless it's a series like Berserk where the big pages REALLY makes the art shine. If you don't have the series at all then i think it's well worth it to just get the Deluxe editions and collect it that way. I don't know why they choose Vinlandsaga. Don't get me wrong it's a great manga. But they already have a hardback release that are two in ones with a slightly larger format. I would rather have as you said Attack on titan or even Gantz in a deluxe edition.
They should do full on western, Marvel/DC or at least Image style comics omnibus hardcover volumes for one piece, make each 1000s of pages each
One day, Spy X Family Deluxe volumes, make them look like mission briefing files
Yes to both of those ideas, I can envision the Spy x Family deluxe editions, those would be awesome!
@@DanielPeppers Right, like I get that a lot of manga readers are actually intimidated by west comics omnibus sizes but it’s the natural deluxe edition progression. Have a whole storyline or saga in 1 or 2 thick western style omnibuses. Have Dragonball/DBZ Naruto, Bleach. been loving the Fire Force and Noragami omnibuses lately but those in western omnibus size would be sweet too.
Great idea😊
Vagabond needs a hardcover treatment fr fr 🔥
Omnibus = good for young readers (young in manga reading journey). Deluxe editions? If you're a real collector, the loose "singles" are the ultimate badge of your journey, especially if you bought them off the shelves yourself following some series for 2 to 8 years. In Japan, many manga make their debuts in disposable anthology "phone books". The cover style does nothing for the art and story, which is all that matters. Slip cases tell no stories, binding has no comic art. In fact they are rather sacrilegious to the gods of manga if you think about it. The art that tells the story is all that matters, and your personal journey with those stories is part of that.
MY TOP 4 MANGA:
- KINGDOM
- BERSERK
- VINLAND SAGA
- VAGABOND
Zatch bell re-release in hardcover spell books...black clover in grimores and many more i can't think of rn....I'll tag u on twitter if u r there
If I could start my manga collection over again, I would have only bought hardcovers.
I’d kill for Claymore deluxe editions.
When manga is collected into a hardcover, that's just a money grab. When manga comes out originally as hardcover AND ONLY hardcover, that's a great sign of respect.
Vagabond Deluxe Edition
Im waiting HARD on the Gantz Deluxe
WHERE IS ITTTTTTTTTTTTT
Yeeees wheeen
The term you were looking for is "atlas" to describe your desired One Piece deluxe edition.
I wanna see Dandadan
the problem is the money ahahah
I hope vagabond gets deluxe hardcover I'd absolutely cream my jocks
I really don’t care for deluxe editions. They are heavy, hard to read, take up space, and sacrifice cover art (which I really value).
I Own Vinland Saga Manga Volumes 1-13 I'm Rebuying Vinland Saga The Deluxe Editions Volume 1-3 As Of 12-3-2023
Vagabond even though we have vizbigs. Bamboo editions
Dragon ball manga desperately needs a deluxe release.
Hard disagree on the Berserk Deluxe take. I appreciate that the set actually matches for once ffs
Deluxe editions so far are boring as fuck. Look at something like "wheel of time" series. They look gorgeous compared to the boring deluxe editions of berserk, hellsing, etc. Like, actually make use of the size and not just oversize the paperbacks and write the name of the manga in big, bold letters.
I don't get why manga can't get creative with their releases.
Kodansha's parasyte hardcover release spells out "parasyte" on the spines. Kodansha's fist of the north star release has blood splattered. Yen press's Emma have these dust jackets that you can inverse to get an entirely new cover and spine. Viz Media's death note black editions which is print on black paper instead of white.
