Shueisha Releasing “Dragon Ball Super: Broly” Anime Comic in May 2019

Shueisha has listed an “anime comic” version of last year’s Dragon Ball Super: Broly theatrical film for release in Japan.

The book hits shelves 02 May 2019 for ¥1,400 + tax. Cover art and page count information are not provided in the current listing. Two novelizations were released in Japan back in December alongside the film’s theatrical debut. The film itself is due for home video release April 16 in America and June 5 in Japan.

The TV and Film Anime Comics series of books collect screen shots from their respective animation into traditional manga format with dialog bubbles and sound effects written out. The 2013 theatrical film, Battle of Gods, received a Film Anime Comic release in October that year (following its March theatrical debut); a lower-priced “Shueisha Jump Remix” version was released the following year. The 2015 theatrical film, Resurrection ‘F’, received a Film Anime Comic release in December that year (following its April theatrical debut); a lower-price “Shueisha Jump Remix” version was released just this last December.

The Dragon Ball Super: Broly anime comic is available for pre-order on Amazon Japan.

Yoshitaka Nagayama’s “Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Universe Mission” Manga Series Receiving Collected Edition Beginning May 2019

The ongoing Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Universe Mission manga series by Yoshitaka Nagayama — currently serialized in Shueisha’s bimonthly Saikyō Jump magazine — is slated to begin receiving a collected print edition, with the first volume set for release 02 May 2019.

The Universe Mission series began serialization back in the May 2018 issue of Saikyo Jump, replacing Nagayama’s previous Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Dark Demon Realm Mission! series (which ran for ten chapters in the same magazine). Nagayama announced on Twitter yesterday that Dark Demon Realm Mission! will return to Saikyō Jump starting with next month’s May 2019 issue, and will run alongside Universe Mission (which will see its seventh chapter published that issue).

The first collected volume of Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Universe Mission will run ¥400 + tax and is available for pre-order on Amazon Japan. Nagayama’s Dark Demon Realm Mission! series received two compiled print releases in April 2017 and May 2018, respectively.

The Super Dragon Ball Heroes arcade game’s ongoing updates are the underlying basis for Nagayama’s manga series as well as the current “Promotional Anime” series. The latest home conversion, Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission, is due out on the Nintendo Switch and PC (via Steam) next month.
