Immerse Yourself in the Dark and Captivating World of Berserk

Berserk, written and illustrated by Kentaro Miura, takes place in a dark fantasy world inspired by medieval Europe. The story revolves around the protagonist, Guts, a solitary swordsman, and Griffith, the leader of a mercenary group known as the ‘Band of the Hawk.’

The manga initially debuted as a prototype in 1988, with the series officially launching the following year in Hakusensha’s Monthly Animal House magazine. In 1992, it moved to the semimonthly magazine Young Animal, where it has been published ever since. Tragically, Kentaro Miura passed away in May 2021, leaving behind an unfinished work. However, a posthumous chapter, which he had both written and illustrated, was released in September of the same year. The series resumed in June 2022 under the supervision of Kouji Mori, a fellow manga artist and childhood friend of Miura.

Berserk holds a significant place in the manga world, with over 40 million copies in circulation. Its success also led to the creation of a television anime series in 1997 and a trilogy of movies from 2012 to 2013. In 2022, a re-edited version of the Berserk: Golden Age Arc trilogy will be broadcast on TV as the ‘Berserk: Golden Age Arc Memorial Edition,’ marking the first time the trilogy will be televised.

The Resumption of Berserk: A Testament to Its Enduring Legacy

Fans of Berserk can finally rejoice as the manga’s hiatus comes to an end. With chapter 372 just around the corner, readers can once again immerse themselves in the dark and captivating world created by Kentaro Miura.

Kentaro Miura’s sudden passing in 2021 left fans devastated, unsure of the fate of their beloved series. However, the posthumous release of a chapter written and illustrated by Miura himself provided a glimmer of hope. Now, under the supervision of Kouji Mori and with the help of Studio Gaga, Miura’s assistants and apprentices, Berserk continues its serialization, ensuring that the story reaches its conclusion.

Berserk’s enduring legacy is a testament to its gripping narrative, complex characters, and stunning artwork. It has captivated readers for decades, with its dark themes and intricate world-building. The return of Berserk is a celebration of Miura’s genius and a chance for fans to once again experience the epic journey of Guts and the Band of the Hawk.
