I donโ€™t know a goddamn thing (yet) about this manga, but it ran for over 100 chapters and itโ€™s nice to actually own everything to corroborate what the Japanese Wikipedia page says about its serialization and commit that to English documentation.

Stream follow-up (apologies, but it's EXTREMELY hard to hold up a magazine AND take a photo at the same time!):

Oh nooooo! I found the 2013 V-Jump website promo of the chapter 1 digital posting that a later chapter mentioned, but it doesn't even HAVE the title page! And tankobon is only greyscale!

Perspective for DBS manga fans:

As I'm doing some V-Jump documentation, I learned about Digimon World Re:Digitize Encode, which began in the June 2013 issue. After its 9th chapter, it went digital only. After 22, it went on hiatus. Today, in *2026*, V-Jump's website *still* lists it as on hiatus.

Back to some earlier issues of V-Jump to fill in some documentation holesโ€ฆ

This, which is not what you think it is, comes from chapter 5 of the Go! Go! Ackman cel comic (which continued right after Toriyamaโ€™s original comic) in the March 1995 issue!

Feature | The Dragon Ball Z American Debut Date - Kanzenshuu When did Dragon Ball Z premiere in America? FUNimation's English dub began in September 1996, but on what date? Is there more to the story?

Not sure if you have seen this before, but it's right in line with the kind of research you're doing here, and I had a ton of fun putting it together-

JP translator friends:

I have some out of normal Kanzenshuu scope stuff (comments, passages, etc.) I want translated for pet projects that I donโ€™t want to ask them to do because of existing work relationships/priorities.

Would like to get done and give you a few bucks. Hit me privately with rates.

Thatโ€™s basically the long and short of it. Was announced, supposed to come out, and then people started realizing that the old links on the Crunchyroll store were 404ing. No word outta anyone about it. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I think โ€œrandom thing branded as Dragon Ballโ€ has an infinitely higher chance of selling than even โ€œprestige historically important Dragon Quest spinoff mangaโ€ tho.

Daizenshuu EX and Kanzentai was the only good merger in the history of mergers.

Still says March 3rd for me when you click through to the product page, but definitely also says โ€œunavailable I dunno manโ€

Just got my Amazon shipping notification for Super manga volume 24โ€ฆ

Dying to see what happens with this Daima set, which is also due out tomorrow. In case you arenโ€™t clued in, Crunchy has scrubbed it from their own online store. Things are going just great over there.

Doing a bunch of Cashman research and history documentation, but happened across this ad for some handheld electronic games in the second issue of V-Jump. Very cool stuff, especially in light of us actually chatting about these specific games during the wiki editing live stream over the weekend!

Two (sad) things can be simultaneously true to this general audience:

It's "real manga", and

It only ultimately matters if and when it gets animated ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Meanwhile, we got... Yamcha Reincarnated? And I guess finally Toriyama's Manga Theater?

I'm looking at a bookshelf with *35* other volumes of MODERN DB MANGA that have come out in Japan... and that's *not counting* things even THEY didn't collect, like Victory Mission(?!), Discross, etc.

02.03.2026 18:11 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 15    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

We talk about this all the time, but the average American doesn't see Super as "V-Jump twilight years sequel series"; they see "new real Dragon Ball manga on Shonen Jump website".

Simultaneously, there have been tons of manga supporting games like Fusions and FighterZ! Europe gets the Heroes manga!

It's fascinating keeping up with all the larger manga industry shenanigans re: AI slop "translations" & market potential... meanwhile Shueisha (and/or Viz?) have seemed largely uninterested or unable to take on flooding the English-language market with the bazillion Dragon Ball spin-offs that exist.
