Just kinda feels weird that this is back but the guns in the last 3-in-1 are still lasers. Wonder if they just forgot about that or what. In all my 2019-2021 printings of the omnibuses though, the Bulma’s and Gotenks’ middle fingers are all still censored. I feel like that should also be a mistake since even the Shonen Jump app has Bulma uncensored. Would love to see them change it in future printings. I can’t imagine them changing the rest of the stuff, but other than Hercule/Herculopolis, the rest seems pretty small anyways
Thanks for the update! I'll add that to the oiginal post!

This release is really all over the place. I think its because they used the Viz Bigs as a base and had to photoshop it to make it uncensored. I think they really need to go back and start over from the begining but I understand that is a giant undertaking.

Yeah that’s probably it. I contacted Viz about the middle finger panels, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they don’t reply. If they do fix that at least I’ll just buy 1-2-3 and 40-41-42 again and I’ll be pretty happy with those despite the bad paper quality that the 3-in-1s have
