Woah hold on a second. There was a manga planned for this too? Man why does it only come with the collectors edition that's lame. My $80 deluxe edition should have been enough lol. I wonder if it will have the same story as the one we play in the game.

Looks like Toyotaro is reaching new heights. Happy for him!
Judging by his interview with Toriyama in DBS Volume 1, he's seems to be a cool guy.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

I'm still curious on when the Manga was announced for it. I looked on different sites and it isn't listed with the collectors edition stuff unless they are replacing the guide book and putting this.

This manga was just announced. And no, the collector's edition will come with everything previously announced. It's on Bandai Namco's official Facebook page...

Ah ok. Makes sense why there wasn't any info about it before. I wonder if they would just sell it too as a stand alone item. I for one would be willing to buy it and I'm sure others would to.

Well, since it was posted officially, I think I can post it here too.

The scan showing the first page of the manga. It takes place in AGE 851, I think it will cover the gap between the first and the second game. :clap:

Oh god, they're bringing an offical version of a story that involves a player made character? God help those who have to face that storm of rage...

Also, I think this confirms that Conton city is on Earth.
But isn't Conton City just a revamped Toki Toki?

JEEZ this music is REALLY good! Reminds me of the golden age of Dragon Ball game music (Budokai).
Yeah, so Toki Toki was on Earth as well.
No, Toki Toki is in a space that is counterpart to the Demon Realm, whose name is Heavenly Kingdom. It was basically a land of beautiful appearance and a few houses in the Celestial Kingdom, including the house of Chronoa, that later became the nest of time.

What the manga is was just announced, but we knew from the moment that the Collector's Edition was revealed that at least some version of it releasing somewhere in the world would have 10 pages of exclusive manga:

That's questionable. In Xenoverse lore, we're told from the start of the first game that Toki Toki City exists in the Toki Toki Realm. Unless you've read something I haven't, nothing further is stated about whether it exists in the Heavenly Realm/Afterlife like Heaven or the Kaio planets, or if it's a separate place, like the Kaioshin Realm.

Well after looking on the facebook page it would appear this isn't a separate item but part of the TP Guide.

At least in God Mission it's was located on the Heavenly Realm

In Xenoverse lore Toki-Toki's location wasn't mentioned (I always assumed it was in a dimention outside the flow of time), but Raditz's dialouge here implies that Conton (Which SKOT already stated was a re-vamped Toki-Toki) is on Earth.

Her house was in the Heavenly Realm back then because Chronoa was a Kaiō. She should be living on a Kaiō Planet before her promotion to Time Kaiōshin and moving to the Time Nest in the Toki Toki Realm.

I'd guess it's the same deal as Super (he makes the outline, in this case, Toyotarou expands on it).

I really love the fact that Toriyama-sensei entitle Toyotaro as his successor. This guy has won a wonderful life.

It's a shame they don't want to release a collector's edition for PC. I would love to have a Xenoverse manga, but I'm not gonna buy the entire collection for PS4 or Xbox.

That will probably be the route I'll go to snag that manga if it is worth it price wise.
