'Super Dragon Ball Heroes' franchise bids farewell with its own encyclopedia and a final episode by Toyotaro
V-Jump releases a special volume to say goodbye to the ‘Dragon Ball’ multiverse after almost 14 years of manga, video games, cards and anime.
‘Super Dragon Ball Heroes’, the franchise that deals with the multiverse of ‘Dragon Ball’ through manga, anime, video games or trading cards, says goodbye after almost 14 years. And to celebrate such an important date, V-Jump has released an official compendium under the title Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Heroes Memories, a kind of encyclopedia with everything we need to know about a saga that was born in Japanese arcades at the end of 2010 and has become a worldwide phenomenon.
Toyotaro and the final chapter of Super Dragon Ball Heroes
As fans will remember, the new Dragon Ball Super Divers card arcade, the replacement for the Super Dragon Ball Heroes arcade machines, was unveiled on May 9, Son Goku’s Day. Now, to say goodbye to the ‘Super Dragon Ball Heroes’ franchise itself, Shueisha is releasing its own compendium with the final chapter of the Victory Mission manga by Toyotaro himself, the illustrator of the ‘Dragon Ball Super’ manga, a work that is still on hiatus after the death of Akira Toriyama.
Priced at nearly 11 dollars at the exchange rate, Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Heroes Memories is a treat for fans of the multiversal subsaga of ‘Dragon Ball’, including 112 pages of illustrations from the entire saga and three very special cards: H-01 P Goku, SH-01 P Goku and the exclusive Hero Avatar Card, which celebrates the launch of Dragon Ball Heroes in 2010. In addition, these three cards can be used in the new Dragon Ball Super Divers arcade.
All in all, ‘Super Dragon Ball Heroes’ says goodbye after almost 14 years of the craziest multiversal stories based on ‘Dragon Ball’, off-canon arcs that never had any impact on the official plot of the series, and betting on fights as crazy as different Gokus fighting side by side or monsters with the most disturbing designs we can imagine.
