Introduction
The volume's introduction from author Toyotarō, as printed on the front flap of the dust cover:
It's been a year since I started working on Dragon Ball Super. The more I work on it, the more I realize how far away Toriyama Sensei is from where I stand right now. However, people say that being able to recognize someone else's strength is proof that you've improved too. In that sense, perhaps I can assume that I've gone from Satan-level to Yamcha-level. You may find some things in this manga that seem odd to you, but I truly appreciate you reading this series with an open mind.
— Toyotarō

Supplemental Images
The following supplemental images are included throughout the volume:
Notes
- The collected edition removes some splash text and adjusts the V-Jump promotion to a Super Start Guide origination note in the "Great Expectation?!" bonus comic.[1] Likewise, the collected edition removes the splash text, title, and Toyotarō/Toriyama credits in the Jump Victory Carnival 2015 bonus comic.
Variations
Viz's English translation of the volume mistakenly adapts Sorbet's bonus as "I… was flown down here…". While the literal meaning of とばされた (tobasareta) is "jumped/flown over", in general conversation and context it takes on the meaning of being "skipped". Other non-English international translations adapted this line accurately.
Q&A Session
This volume contains a short, two-page Q&A session with original author Akira Toriyama and Dragon Ball Super author Toyotarō entitled, "Tori-Toyo Free Talk".[2]
