So I picked up the first 2 volumes of the English Freeza Saga and my god is it amazing. Quality is great and the color makes everything come to life. I'm like 95% sure the translations are the same though. Two volumes? Isn't there just one available for now? The translations are mostly the same, bu...

I see. The way I see it, I think it's more a question of necessity than anything else. If he sees there's no other way, then he won't think twice about it (though he'll still fell some regret, as seen with Boo), but if he sees there's even a chance that things might be solved (more) peacefully, then...

Whenever the topic of Goku not killing his enemies comes up, everyone makes the assumption he is actively, consciously not doing it. Perhaps he's passively not doing it? When he kills all those Red Ribbon soldiers, maybe he was just not holding back, and wasn't setting out to kill them? This seems ...

I was just checking out the Animation Process page ( excellent job, by the way), and I noticed a misspelling: Once the outline ink dries, color paint is applied to the reverse side of the cel based on the color palate established by the color coordinator and episode director Should have been "p...

Personally, I think "Super Saiyan Blue" is kind of a silly name and I never really took to it. Then again, "Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan" is also a mouthful... Hmm... This could all have been avoided if the original "Red" form had been simply named "Saiyan God&quo...

Eeeeexactly what I meant. Thanks a lot, Alakazam!

I checked pages 8 and 33 of volume 8 and I noticed it as well. They aren't blurred, though. The lines seem to be doubled, that's why the eyes don't focus that well. So it's not just me, then. Thanks. Still, pages 8 and 33 aren't even the worst cases. Pages 40 and 41 are where you can see it really ...

Can you upload some pics? Its possible it was a printing error? Even if I took a picture, I'm not quite sure I'd be able to get my point across since the blurriness could just be attributed to low picture resolution (it's not that bad, but clearly visible to the naked eye), hence why I included som...

All the new 12 Full Color volumes just arrived in the mail for me and I noticed something strange in volumes 6-8 of the Boyhood arc. The art on some of the pages is a bit... blurry. Volumes 6 and 7 aren't too bad -- on my quick look through them, I could only find page 227 on vol. 6 and pages 193 an...

Very, very nice job, Emma! As I've told you a few days ago on twitter, it's a real shame Viz can't just revise the old translation and use their current standards. It wouldn't even be that hard - Dragon Ball is so linguistically easy, even as an intermediate Japanese student (JLPT N3) I can understa...

Wow, and just when I was thinking of getting the manga. Time to wait for Full Color to finish and buy all that instead . I get your point, but I would advise you to just buy them as they get out. Viz is licensing them arc-by-arc instead of all at once to gauge the market, so the more support the re...

Yeah I'm also quite happy with that decision and with the Full Colors in general. Even with only one arc (soon to be two) available, its my favorite English release of the manga and I'll gladly support it. Viz did a really good job with the Saiyan arc, I hope they continue the trend and I hope they...

Really great stuff, the entire series will in color, hopefully the upcoming viz volumes get enough support so they can continue releasing them, french publisher Glénat said they have plans to publish dragon ball in color this year, now that beginning is released i wonder if the french release will ...

Somehow I seriously doubt it

(They haven't even touched the GT review of awesomeness for three years at this point, they clearly aren't GT's biggest fans).

Colonel Silver is on the fourth volume in that image, so I guess that confirms it isn't a 1:1 conversion of the digital releases, and should also include the Red Ribbon stuff (and I guess also probably confirms that there will be 8 volumes total). Apparently so. I guess that means TheDevilsCorpse w...

Eh, wish they didn't start at volume 1 again. The Japanese also did it this way, it's not Viz's idea. Not to mention, since we're now (hopefully) going to have print editions of the "pre-Z" era, the count would have to start from number 1 again anyway. They couldn't even have different vo...

For those that haven't seen it yet, Viz published the cover of the first Freeza volume a few days ago : http://i.imgur.com/cAMETDv.jpg?1 They're coming. (Only 5 more months to go... :| ) I actually quite like the purple tone they gave to the cover's edges. Helps to differentiate the arcs from each o...

Like I said, it depends on what they are counting as the "Boyhood Arc". If it includes all the material prior to the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai, which the digital editions classify as part of the "Piccolo Daimao Arc", then they could easily make 8 volumes of 14 chapters out of it. T...

I have no real opinion on the matter, as I won't be buying them so it doesn't matter how many there are. I'm just posting what I was told. (Third photo.) Though I wouldn't be entirely surprised if there ends up being another 4 volumes released, taking it up to the 22 Budokai. Then then a set of Pic...

ScholarGohan says the Resurrection "F" anime comic says that there will be 8 books total for the Boyhood Arc. Um... not possible. Most likely a typo. We already know the number of volumes that will come out, as the retailers already them have available for pre-order, and it's going to be ...
