So the cover for Volume 40's been revealed...

[Dogasu]

The official Pocket Monsters Special website's revealed the cover art for Volume 40, due to be released in May.

The site invites us to line it up with the cover to Volume 39:

I wonder if this has any significance or if it's just a neat little Easter egg for us fans.

As I have no idea what has happened during the Platinum arc I cannot think how this could have any significance. But I'm loving the idea taken for the covers. <3

Well, it's interesting at least things like that one Rotom you can barely see on the left part of Volume 39, or Dia's pants leg.

Shows at least, combining the covers was already planned.

Is it just me or is there a shadow of a third Giratina in the background?

 

[FinalArcadia]

You know, this would've been cool to do the entire series. I like the approach.

Yeah, they connect.

This is the third time, I think, that covers have been able to connect.

Oh that is really neat! When I saw the first picture I knew it looked familiar, and then when I scrolled down..tadah! A very nice approach!
