Zatch Bell! Updates 📕

(1/33) ⚡️Information thread 🧵 Given that in recent years, the extremely successful Full Version editions of Konjiki no Gash!! have been localized in Spanish and Portuguese as Zatch Bell! and Gash Bell!, respectively, this leaves many fans of the series wondering if an English

@Problematicpnk They don't exist in English dude 😭 if they did, you'd have heard about it from me lol. DM me if you need a spot to read it online though!

@TheFourthSpell This is no unFAIR. I just be rummaging through the internet to find any zatch bell merch. I found them in Spanish, i thought i would be lucky to find them in English 😔

Let's crunch some numbers for any publishers considering licensing Konjiki no Gash!! Paperback omnibus vols are anywhere from $15-$20 USD. The Full Version edition is 16 vols. That's $240-$320. Imagine every follower bought a set. That's $1.2-1.6 million. You're welcome! 💰

@Problematicpnk Girl where have you been 😭 they don't EXIST in English. The series has not been licensed in English yet outside of the unfinished Viz release from the early 2000s. The only way to read it is via fan translations online.

@TheFourthSpell Ugh i can’t find these anywhere in English. I’ve been buying them all in spanish😭 (luckily i speak Spanish but still!)

@zrow4_zrow How can there be a next One Piece when One Piece is still going? 😂

@TheFourthSpell Very much I would call it the next one piece

So what's everyone reading while we wait for Chapter 40?

@TheFourthSpell Shangri La frontier

@zrow4_zrow Can you say the title??

@TheFourthSpell Don’t wanna waste everyone’s time with long name titles. Besides it’s a popular manga

@zrow4_zrow Why are we assuming everyone knows every acronym lol what is that

@TheFourthSpell SLF

@Jitsauce Yeah. I really don't know how it could be broken down episode-wise. They would just need to commit to adapting everything and viewers would need to trust the story's trajectory.

@TheFourthSpell I think if they adapted it a bit faster compared to the original anime, they could get the first arc done in 36-39 episodes, but the real question is if theyd even bother with doing that at this point in time, a lot of adaptstions go for 12 or 24 episodes at most

What's something you love about the Encounter Arc? (Chapters 1-99)

@Jitsauce Well it's hard because the series is only 4 arcs and they're all big. So breaking up the Encounter Arc and only having part of it be a season feels so weird and inorganic to me. If it HAD to though, I could see it doing everything up to the England portion and save that for an s2

@TheFourthSpell Imo its fantastic but i wonder if itd be difficult to adapt it in a seasonal format nowadays! Besides the london castle arc, its hard to imagine which arcs would be a nice conclusion to a 1st or even 2nd season In my mind the saga could be adapted (at the quickest) in 36 ep.

@somequo_x This rings a bell. Well I hope you enjoy it! Feel free to share your thoughts along the way 😁

@TheFourthSpell Yeah, I've been planning the read for a long while (I'm somewhat sure we already interacted before 😅) I'm finishing about 80 chapters of Tokyo Ghoul:re and then start Zatch Bell + its sequel I'm not a really quick reader, but I'm positive I might start it next week!

WE'LL SOON BE THERE 🗣️🗣️🗣️

A BL artist colored the DLE Konjiki no Gash!! merch! Happy almost Pride 🏳️‍🌈

@retro_salad DM me!

@TheFourthSpell I'm not even sure where to read it

What are your thoughts on the sequel so far?

@Patsamol_L THIS IS GORGEOUS!

パティ🤍🗡️

@CHESToutLET Ooh I don't know that one!

@TheFourthSpell I'm reading Kotaro Lives Alone, been trying to get back to it for months now. Very bitter sweet series.

@Jitsauce Ah, that's fair! Hahaha so the first series is still pretty fresh for you!

@TheFourthSpell Interesting! Also to be fair I only read Zatchbell 1 about a year or two ago? So lets say ive only been waiting a biiiit more than a little bit

@Jitsauce "Waiting a little bit," well, it has been four years, so... There's absolutely no way for any of us to know how long the sequel is going to be. All we know is Raiku said Ch. 31 marks the end of the "first part" of the sequel. He did not clarify out of how many parts, though.

@TheFourthSpell i just like waiting a little bit, for monthly series at least 😭 how far would you say zatch bell 2 is? is it even close to halfway done (i'll assume its not)

@Zerotarou1992 ME TOO!

@TheFourthSpell I'm loving it personally
