Before reading books and newspapers, please read the two versions
Library version and complete version. Both versions are named after Japan, and both versions are still in print.
Bunko edition is a very small version. It is one of the forms of Japanese publications. It is a small (A6 size) book for the purpose of popularization. It is easy to carry and relatively cheap. Its initial function is that the single volume is generally 32K in size. The Bunku version allows readers to read in their spare time while taking the bus or subway. It is also easy to complete in terms of weight. The first domestic books that are close to the Bunku edition are those of the past. It's a romance novel that's known as a banned book.
The complete version is a reprint form of a comic book. As a new version in the early 21st century, it has the following characteristics
1 Completely reproduces the color pages when the magazine was serialized. This is one of the very important selling points, almost 99.99% The single volume does not have color pages.
2 The cartoonist redraws the cover
3 Includes original manuscripts that are not included in the regular version of the comic, such as front cover paintings, Magazine covers etc. . .
4 The size is larger than the normal version of comics, and it feels good to hold.
5 The cover and paper quality are better, making readers more comfortable. Easy to read and enjoy the touch
6 Because the format is larger and the paper is higher, it can show the details of the picture
The most common and complete The version size is around 212. It is 30% larger than the ordinary single book. Every aspect of the picture is definitely more detailed.
The conditions for producing a full version must have a certain degree of popularity, sales, and focus, so that readers will be interested in continuing to buy the full version even if they purchase a single volume. This is what we call money fraud in China. However, the Japanese complete version is a very honest money swindle, because its paper quality and craftsmanship are the highest among all versions. . .
In addition, there is a saying that the complete version started with Slam Dunk. The complete version produced by Shueisha using Slam Dunk caused a great response and the sales volume was also very high. The following year, 34 volumes of Dragon Ball were released, and more than 2,000 volumes were sold within 5 years. The success of these two works made Shueisha set its sights on the complete version of the cake, so as of 2009, the complete version has been designated as Shueisha’s next product. A new type of money scamming version.
Having said this, do you think that since the full version is so excellent, it is necessary to compare.
So I want to ask everyone, is the most perfect version in your mind the complete version? I believe that more than 95% of the people who read this will say: nonsense! Will it be a standalone book?
Let’s take a look at this Slam Dunk World Library Edition first.
This version appeared at the 1998 World Exhibition. Speaking of which, do you feel particularly familiar with it? That's right, it's similar to the gold version and the silver version. This is not the first time that Tianxia has launched the venue version at the venue. It is said that in 1998, the sales volume of the Bunku version of SD was very poor. Even if the Bunku version was launched in a limited edition, the effect was still not good. So Tianxia continued to sell the version in directly operated bookstores until it was sold out. . . .
In addition, Tianxia also launched a limited edition of Tianxia SD in the 1999 venue edition, with book box and certificate, limited to 1,000 sets. It seems that Tianxia is really I really like to make SD limited edition.
That’s enough, let’s get back to the topic. At the beginning, no one paid attention to the SD Bunko version. Until the launch of the complete version, the Bunko version gradually went out of print. Instead, it has now become the Bunko sacred book in the eyes of Slam Dunk fans.
From left to right are the Bunku, the Japanese version, and the SD Tianxia single volume. It can be seen that even compared to the ordinary single volume, the Bunku is still at least 30% smaller
This is a complete appreciation of the library. The cover is completely different from the Japanese version. It was a cover specially made by Takehiko Inoue for the overseas version. Creative Publishing House and Tianxia Publishing House all use this cover in order to distinguish it from the single line of the Japanese version.
Next is the comparison details
The format sizes are incomparable, 151VS212, almost a 40% difference
Compared with the complete cover of the complete edition, the spine of the library edition is a bit monotonous.
The inner cover of the complete version contains the original manuscript by Takehiko Inoue
The inner page 1 is the original manuscript
Sulfuric Acid Page
Color Pictures
In terms of the specifications of the full version, the full version is Completely better than the library version.
You can compare the black and white pages. The printing of the inner pages is worse than that of the complete version. The reason is the paper quality. Compared with the complete version, the library version uses cheaper paper, so the printing is It is said that the ink of some details will be lighter than that of the complete version
Seeing this, some readers will ask, Bi Mao, isn't it the Wanmiao Library version?
Don’t worry, please continue reading
Coloring pages.
This is the most amazing part of the library version. Almost 99% of the library version does not have color pages, and its function is only as a new version for readers. A convenient portable, reading use, not sold as a collector's edition.
But in this first library version in the world, all the color pages are miraculously restored, and the color pages are even more beautiful than the complete version! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
I believe this is unique among all future Bunku editions, but Tianxia has perfectly restored the original color pages that are only available in the complete edition. This is placed in the separate editions of the past generations. In comparison, there are not many books that come with color pages, no! ! !
You can directly compare the brightness of the colors
If the full version is a two-color page, the library version can almost reach the level of a color page, and the color is beautiful. Very comfortable to get up.
In addition, the Bunko version also includes all four-frame comics, and some single volumes are also included. . . What about the full version? No. . . .
The Wenku version also has the Q territory that everyone is most looking forward to, the magical world, all the tips have been eaten, only our great Changchun in the Celestial Dynasty still brings us a little comfort, The Q layout has been restored.
In a simple and crude comparison, the library version of the color pages really beats the full version!
The upper library, the complete version of the world
The upper library, the complete version of the world
Up Wenku, the complete version of the world
This color almost made me cry
The library, the complete version of the world< /p>
The two-color pages of the full version are inferior. . . Really
Shangwenku, Xiatianxia Complete Edition
The author specially asked a friend to find the page of the last JUMP book that year, and found that the two-color page The effect is basically the same as the full version.
To sum up, I was actually very conflicted when writing this book and newspaper. The author is not complaining about the bad version, but I am blindly praising it and people may not even see it. It makes no sense to use the library version. The author only concluded through comprehensive comparison that not all factors of the complete version surpass any one version. Yes, the full version is indeed the most cost-effective among all versions in terms of paper, printing, and design. However, in terms of comparison, the color pages of the library version are better than the full version.
1 A question will arise here, why the full version does not use the same color pages as the library version, but pursues two-color pages with worse effects.
Here the author makes a bold guess. The color pages of the Bunko edition were polished by Tianxia Publishing House themselves and approved by Shueisha before being printed in the Bunko edition. Shueisha did not polish it themselves. To put it simply, the Bunko version was polished by Tenka himself and was authorized by Shueisha.
Suppose Shueisha has already polished the Bunko version, and the full version can use Bunko colors that are more effective. Moreover, the paper quality of the full version is better than that of the Bunko version, and the printing effect will be much better.
2 If it is a cost issue, the cost of making four editions of molds has never been considered a very large sum for a set of books with sales of tens of millions. Big expenses, yes, may increase, but not significantly. Just refer to the number of color pages in each volume.
3 There is another view that Inoue embellishes the world. . . Inoue left Shueisha in 1996, and it was impossible for Inoue to color the Bunko released in 1998. According to the relationship between Ma Rongcheng and Inoue, it would be great luck to be the producer. . .
4 Finally, regarding the issue of polishing, the late Tianxia Dynasty once colored a set of color versions for Wanderer. In my opinion, the effect is not bad. Of course, Wanderer Kexing's style is destined to be unable to use color picture quality, which is a story for another day. Self-improvement has never been a problem for Tianxia.
After seeing this, there must be many sarcastic readers asking, where did you get the basis, or was it the conclusion you got based on YY? The author's unified answer:
1 I was not born in a liberal arts class.
2 I am not a published author
3 I do not do research on historical documents
p>
So you don’t need to spend energy to trace the source. Whether you have read it or laughed it off, after all, non-fans will not understand what fans like.
At present, the Bunko version of SD has been out of print for a long time. As an SD fan, it is no exaggeration to consider the Bunko version to be the No. 1 SD single volume of all generations.
Do you understand what the author is implying? The current price of the 1998 Bunku version has at least tripled. If you have the gold version or the silver version, you may be able to change your villa in 30 years. I am talking about you getting rich. I wish everyone will have a villa and a home in 30 years. The family has a luxury car.
