Is Dragonball Z now second? Cos it seems to me that Dragonball Z was one very long comic during my era.
ReplyDeleteI think this record is due to the total copies sold for a single Manga release.
ReplyDelete@ Dennis, Dragonball is actually not that long compared to other mangas. Actually, One Piece isn't that long either, even though it's still going. The longest is Kochikame, over 1,600 chapters.
