Is there anyone scanslating the ONE version of this? I rather like those scratchy drawings, even though his technical skill isn't great he has a solid understanding of panel layout and transitions

I think the listing for Dragonball includes western sales.

Edit: I took a look around and it's pretty confusing. A lot of sites seem to peg DB/DBZ as around 150 million volumes sold as of 2012, that would mean everywhere minus Japan would need to account for the extra 200 million. I know the cartoon was a juggernaut in the US back in the 90s, did that translate into comic sales as well? I know some series catch on like wildfire in some South American countries too, was DBZ one of them?

I know Dragonball was huge in continental Europe, I knew someone who learned German so she could buy a bunch of cheap manga and DB/DBZ was definitely one of them. It's also popular in France, Spain and Italy which are big markets when it comes to Manga.

In fact, it would be easier on my willpower if we had a seperate thread entirely...

Given that Murata's version is essentially the Anime adaptation of One's manga, I second this
