This edition is printed in a very nice high quality paper. I`ll admit that it depends on personal preference. There might be those who won`t like the size of this edition because its heavier then regular volumes and etc. For example, DBZ volumes 1, 2 and 3 of Viz`s regular edition have a collective thickness of about 1.7 inches (or about 4.3 cm) but DBZ Vizbig 1, which collects them, has a thickness of about 1.4 inches (about 3.6 cm). Its also interesting to note that they have about the same size as the Japanese "Perfect Edition" Kanzenbans, which is a very high quality release of the manga, except in thickness since the Vizbigs collect more material in one volume than one Kanzenban volume does.Īlso, regarding the Vizbigs` thickness, its also interesting to note that each Vizbig volume has less thickness than the corresponding volumes of the regular release. Its a different experience reading the manga in this size and overall I find it more pleasing. That allows the manga to have larger panels than the previous editions. While the standard manga is about 7.4 x 5 inches (or about 18.8 x 12.4 cm), this edition is about 8.7 x 5.8 inches (or about 22 x 14.7 cm). This release has the peculiar characteristic of being larger than any other english Dragon Ball edition to date. I will divide this review in topics to make it easier to read. The other is called Dragon Ball Z and contains the remaining volumes. The first one contains the first 16 volumes and is called Dragon Ball. However, Viz divided the manga in two portions. For those of you who don`t know, the original japanese manga is called simply Dragon Ball and has 42 volumes. This review will reflect mainly upon the Dragon Ball Z Vizbig collection. They have larger frames than the regular volumes and normally each VizBig volume has 3 original volumes included or more (in "omnibus" fashion).įor more information on this particular format you can view this link: They are published by Viz and they are in english.
I will also talk about the first portion (or the entirety of the Dragon Ball manga in this format) whenever it might be pertinent.įor those of you who don`t know what the VizBigs are, they are re-releases of manga in a different format. 71&start=0 ), I will now do a review of the second portion of the manga in the Vizbig format. Just like I did with the first Vizbig collection of the Dragon Ball manga, I have now completed the Z portion of the manga, thus completing the entire Dragon Ball manga in Vizbig format.Īnd, just like I did with the first (.
