These Dragon Ball volumes have finally reached number 30. Son Goku, who used to be a child, is now a father through and through. The reason I’m able to keep drawing the comic this long is thanks to the support from so many people. I am truly thankful. Even so, I’m in awe all the more at myself, that a fickle guy like me has managed to keep doing the same thing for over seven years.

Title Page Special Feature

As the tankōbon are compilations of pre-existing chapters, they are intended to be continuously read from beginning to end. Often times, any title pages not considered integral to the story, or due to page count issues between chapters, were moved to the back of the volume and collected in a special gallery following the volume’s final chapter. The gallery notes the title pages are “as they appeared in Weekly Shōnen Jump“, which include the original tag lines and “Bird Studio” logo. These features are typically removed from the title pages remaining in the volume’s main content.

Notes

  • This volume omits two of the original chapter title pages, although all were later included in the kanzenban release.

Supplemental Images

The following supplemental images are included in this volume and are original illustrations drawn by Akira Toriyama exclusively for this tankōbon volume:
