As stated on their forum, Carlsen is also planning to re-release NEKO MAJIN as a tankōbon (the German kanzenban was released in 2007):

Forum wrote: Die Idee dieser Edition stammt tatsächlich von uns und offenbar waren das SHONEN JUMP-Editorial und natürlich Toriyama-sensei darüber so erfreut, dass sie uns tatsächlich genehmigt haben, NEKO MAJIN erstmals als Taschenbuch zu bringen. Vorher geht es aber mit den Kurzgeschichten los - aber in umgekehrter Reihenfolge: der dritte Band (mit u.a. GO! GO! ACKMAN) kommt zuerst raus, u.a. deswegen, weil er immer wieder von Euch gewünscht wurde).
The idea for this edition was actually ours, and it seems that the SHONEN JUMP-Editorial and, of course, Toriyama-sensei were so happy about it, they actually allowed us to release it as paperback. But before that, we will start with the short stories - But in reversed order: the third volume (with GO! GO! ACKMAN, e.t.c.) will be relesed first. Among other reasons, this is because you frequently wished for it.
