Shueisha has released the cover artwork for today’s sixteenth volume (“Legend 16”) of the Dragon Ball manga’s new “Digest Edition” (Sōshūhen), kicking off the “Majin Boo arc” in the manga re-release series:
These editions are touted as allowing the reader to “enjoy Dragon Ball the same way as when it was serialized in Jump“, and are the same size as the original Weekly Shōnen Jump serialization (JIS B5; 18.2 × 25.7 cm). The volumes feature an exclusive large foldout poster, the original color pages and titles, promotional slogans, text and logos, and next issue previews at the end of each chapter.
“Legend 16” runs 520 pages, and is available today (09 December 2016) for ¥650 plus tax, with the second and fourth Friday of each subsequent month seeing one new volume apiece. “Legend 16” is still available for order via Amazon Japan and CDJapan. “Legend 17” will be released 23 December 2016, and is still available for pre-order via Amazon Japan and CDJapan.
