Shueisha has released the cover artwork for the upcoming twelfth volume (“Legend 12”) of the Dragon Ball manga’s new “Digest Edition” (Sōshūhen), continuing the “Freeza 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 12” picks up with Chapter 307, runs 388 pages, and will be released 14 October 2016 for ¥500 plus tax, with the second and fourth Friday of each subsequent month seeing one new volume apiece. “Legend 12” (releasing 14 October 2016) and “Legend 13” (releasing 28 October 2016) are available for pre-order via Amazon Japan.
