Kingdom Complete Edition Vol 8 Collector's EditionComics Manga Series

Product Description

To celebrate the milestone of 100 million copies sold of the manga series "Kingdom" in November 2020, a brand-new "Kingdom Complete Edition" is being released! This special edition is designed as a permanent collector's item, featuring entirely new specifications and designs that elevate the reading experience. With a larger format, premium materials, and exclusive commentary from the author, this series offers fans a fresh way to immerse themselves in the world of "Kingdom."

The "Kingdom Complete Edition" is presented in a refined A5 format, which is larger than a standard comic book but smaller than a manga magazine. It features a hardcover design with a literary aesthetic, including a back cover, spines (strings), and tracing paper. The text is printed on pure white, high-quality paper, ensuring that the illustrations are sharper and more vibrant than ever before. The title is adorned with blue foil, inspired by the key color of the Hishintai, and the cover is embossed with a blank stamping process reminiscent of the seals of the seven heroes of the Warring States period. Even the main body of the book beneath the cover is beautifully designed, making it a true collector's piece.

Additionally, the complete edition includes color pages that reproduce the color doors from the Weekly Young Jump issues, along with many illustrations that were not included in the original comics. Fans will also enjoy exclusive commentary from the author, Yasuhisa Hara, who provides insights into the creation of each story, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the world of "Kingdom."
