Will you be supporting the jews of Viz when this hits the stores?I will
Punpun thread?
Probably not. Or if so, probably only the first few volumes which were my favourite.

used vs brand new
What's with the shit cover?
>>134684697
The original covers really are way better.
>>134684391
>Those disgusting covers
Luckily Norma Editorial is keeping the original covers on their release
>>134684729
Woah didn't know it had already been released in Spanish. Should go to Fnac someday.

>>134684697I prefer the later
Obviously the later one will sell better as-well

That shitty emblem at the bottom ruins the cover.
>>134687441
And an oddly shitty font choice.
I sure am glad they changed the fucking cover. That sure is a change that the fans have been asking for.
>>134687712
Its really fucking weird that some guy probably said something like that at their meeting concerning this manga. Its as if there is someone who is trying to make these companies go bankrupt.
>>134687712
>>134688057
You do realize they don't make these for the few fans that have already read this right? they want to make the cover more appealing to mass.
The US cover at least gives you some information. It's more interesting.
>>134688122
It makes it look like generic hipster trash that no one reads anyways.
>>134688122
I'm pretty sure that even people who haven't read it yet would prefer the original cover. People always prefer the original for things like this.
Also, they are losing a lot of customers because of this change and I'm sure they wouldn't lose any if they stayed with the original.
>>134684641
New Punpun costs still 7,64$. US manga are always expensive as fuck.

This. The changed cover looks like a children's story to me. The original cover looks unusual, which would make me look into it to see what it is.
>>134688244
For a single volume, 1 of 11, at 7.64. The Viz is 1 of 3 for 16.55.
The U.S. is cheaper for the entire series.
>>134688440
both look like a children's story when looking at the cover. But I do think that on first impressions only the 2nd one would peak more people's interest.
I know it's just conjecture, but I see no other reason for them to change the cover. They probably know what they're doing, I assume at-least.
>>134688244
It's an omnibus you retard.
>>134688571
>peak
If it's fucking Viz, then no. They only know how to sell battle shounen. They're only lucky that the name already carries weight i.e. through Solanin.
I can tell you that it looks like all the shit in the library that no one ever borrows.

>I can tell you that it looks like all the shit in the library that no one ever borrows.
Original or Viz? because I could say the same for the original cover. I've some old Astrid Lindgren tier books with those type of covers
>>134688923
Viz. If there's anything they could genuinely capitalize on, it'd be the fact it's Japanese. Which they have not.
>>134684391
I'm pretty sure we get three in one ominbuses for the Punpun release in English, don't we?
>>134685033
Is DDDD supposed to be an example there?
They literally just translated the embossed title
>>134684391
Fuck off
I have the whole thing in french, feels good

>¡DIBUJA MANGA!
God fucking dammit.
>Punpun NA release

What a time to be alive.
>>134695312
The Shin Sekai Yori translation is still going on, too!
Is it only going to be 3 volumes?
