With the movie slated to arrive in Japanese theaters this August, a new poster has arrived. Thinking about it now, I'm surprised I managed to draw a weekly serialization all by myself without any assistants, even if it was only for a single comic volume's worth. Sand Land first arrived in the year 2000, following the story of a demonic son entering the world of man. In a recent interview, Toriyama revealed that he considered Sand Land, at one time, to be his final work, long before Goku and his friends returned in the sequel series known as Dragon Ball Super, "After Dragon Ball ended, I experimented with various short works and one-shots, then tried to put all I had into drawing what I figured would be my final work. While the movie has yet to gain a North American release, it wouldn't be a surprise if the film does arrive in the West eventually. It's unlikely that Sand Land will ever have as much impact on the world as Dragon Ball, but that is an exceptionally high bar to attempt to clear. When the manga first debuted decades ago, it only released one volume, meaning there wasn't too much material focusing on the character known as Beelzebub. It makes sense that the upcoming Akira Toriyama anime adaptation would arrive as a movie instead of a television series.
