#TWIN DUNGEON PRINCESSES CHAPTER 8 SERIES#
The original run of Dragonball was aimed at the shonen, or young/teen boy, audience, and the entire series clocks in at 42 volumes. For example, an adult new to manga might be recommended Akira Toriyama’s Dragonball due to the series’ long-lasting influence on popular culture. Oftentimes, well-meaning friends might recommend one of their favorite titles or a popular series without taking into consideration the length of the series or the original target demographic. If you’re new to manga, then you might be intimidated out of reading some series because of the volume number. Getting a hold of every volume might prove challenging if the series is out of print or unavailable overseas. For that reason, some of the most well-known manga series might produce dozens and dozens of volumes over the course of decades.
Popularity is a big factor in determining how long a series will go on for. Osamu Akimoto's Kochira Katsushika-ku Kameari Kōen Mae Hashutsujo, otherwise known as KochiKame: Tokyo Beat Cops, currently holds the record for most volumes in a manga series at 200 volumes. Some series can be relatively short at fewer than ten volumes while others can balloon up to more than 100 volumes. Omnibuses are convenient because they hold multiple volumes in one edition, however, they can sometimes be a bit cumbersome to carry due to their size. For example, Junji Ito’s horror manga, Gyo: The Death-stench Creeps was originally released as two volumes, however, both volumes were reprinted into one omnibus, which is the copy the library currently owns. Older series are often reprinted in omnibus form, which might alter the listed number of volumes. Some series might even be collected into an omnibus a collection of two or three volumes published together into one jumbo form.
