It is unclear if the manga will be re-released or translated in conjunction with the anime adaptation. The announcement of the SAND LAND anime also brings attention to the original manga, which has not been widely available in English. The dark and dystopian setting of the story is a departure from the more lighthearted and humorous tone of Dragon Ball, and fans are curious to see how an adaptation of this work will handle the change in tone. Fans of Toriyama and Dragon Ball are already excited about the news and are eagerly anticipating the anime adaptation of SAND LAND. On Twitter, SAND LAND's official Twitter account shared a trailer for an upcoming adaptation, with more information apparently releasing on December 17th.

The story of SAND LAND follows a human sheriff named Rao who seeks the aid of Beelzebub, the prince of all demons, in order to find a mystical spring rumored to be to the south of the desert. Surprisingly, in this world, both humans and demons live alongside one another, with both races struggling to survive. Decades of war and corruption have permanently scarred the planet, leaving only a desert known as Sand Land, with the only source of water being controlled by a horrible and greedy king. Published soon after Dragon Ball's end, SAND LAND was released in 2000 and is a dark fantasy story set in a dystopian world where water has become scarce and much of the Earth has been reduced to a lawless desert wasteland. Dragon Ball fans around the world can rejoice at the news of series creator Akira Toriyama returning to work on an anime adaptation of one of his older one-shot series, SAND LAND.
