Kurt wrote in to let us know that his order for the upcoming fifth “Viz Big” release of Dragon Ball Z has been delayed. We checked in with some of the supposedly-upcoming volumes, and here is what the schedule seems to be of currently-listed volumes:
Dragon Ball VizBig 5 (Volumes 13-15)
- Release Date: 18 August 2009
Dragon Ball Z VizBig 5 (Volumes 29-31)
Original Release Date: 19 May 2009First Delayed Release Date: 12 July 2009- Second Delayed Release Date: 20 October 2009
Dragon Ball Z VizBig 6 (Volumes 32-34)
- Release Date: 19 January 2010
Dragon Ball Z VizBig 7 (Volumes 35-37)
- Release Date: 19 January 2010
There is a five month delay in there for a re-release of a re-release of a re-release… or something along those lines. A la FUNimation and their DVDs, we are having a tough time keeping up with Viz and their manga!
We will be diving into Volume 29 in our “Manga Review of Awesomeness” on the podcast next weekend, so it looks like those of you keeping up via VizBig are out of luck!
