Definice a Význam "tankobon"

What is a "tankōbon"?

A tankōbon is a standalone volume of a manga series, typically published in book form. It collects a series of chapters from a manga series that have previously appeared in serialized format in magazines. Each tankōbon usually contains multiple chapters, providing a complete section of the story. The format allows readers to enjoy the manga in a cohesive, bound volume rather than in separate magazine issues. Tankōbon are often produced in a compact, paperback format and can include additional content such as author notes or bonus illustrations.
