Something odd I just found

Post by Lavender Saiyan » Thu May 10, 2007 1:30 am

I was just looking through my Manga and came across something odd.

The final Volume of DBZ to contain the OLD Viz Logo was DBZ Volume 21 (DB 37)...the book states that it's first printing was "July 2005" (which is the copy I own)

Now then, I have a copy of DBZ Volume 19 (DB 35). This copy I have has the NEW Viz logo. This book is a "Second Printing" and the book states that the Second Printing occured in "June 2005".

Does anyone have an explaination for this? Why would Vol. 21 have the old Viz logo while a newer Volume 19, released one month prior have the new one?

I assume the older volumes with the new logo are re-releases (in some way).

Oh boy, that was the second time I've been able to use that in context today.

Anyway, I seem to recall seeing the same thing on the manga at my local Waldenbooks, but I thought nothing of it.

So it's not a mistake then.

Trivia:
Aono Takeshi, Roy Campbell's Japanese voice actor, was also the Japanese voice of "Doc" Emmett Brown in the "Back to the Future" series.

(just to remain slightly on-topic, he was also Piccolo Daimaô and Kami-Sama's voice)

Now I'm getting the odd mental image of Kami-sama with Doc Brown hair ranting to Trunks about the flux capacitor. >_O

Well, I'm assuming they started using the new logo on manga published in June 2005. Considering the volume 19 you have is a re-release, it makes sense.

i have the feeling I just killed the whole 'time paradox' thing

I now want to check the BTTF DVD's for a Japanese Audio track. Seeing the movies for the 9000th time but in a different language would be awesome. Best trilogy ever.
