I've been a fan for about 20 years. It was one of my first tastes of mature media and part of the reason I got into writing.

The detail was amazing and the story gripped an agnsty teen and held the heart of grown adult.

The depth and beauty the story held. The highs and lows along 20 years are now at a dead stop.

You can rest now struggler. You've earned it.

Most Viral Edit: Thanks? But I can't be happy about this. It hurts too much. Send cute pets? Or hugs? I think I'd like some hugs.

I'm sad now...

At least it is true, that man has no control, even over his own will. R.I.P massive legend.

Did anybody here play the game on Dreamcast?

I wanted to buy a Dreamcast just for this game. Tried playing it on an emulator once but it glitched.

Berserk is great, takes a bit of effort sometimes but yes, a great loss. And Caska just got back :/

I wouldn't be able to cope if we hadn't gotten her back though

I'm a writer too and I don't think that my book would ever have gotten made without him. Whenever it felt like it was impossible I thought/

Of Miura, pulling off Berserk for decades even after he was diagnosed with cancer. I'm sure thousands would say the same. Thank you Kentaro

Rickert's slap, whilst already having so much emotion behind it, now feels like it has the power of ten thousand suns.

I always knew Berserk wouldn’t be finished before he passed away :/ I do hope they continue the manga still, but it won’t be the same

Truly embarrassing to watch that CLANG rabbit episode. I understand.

FUCK. That's so fucking sad. Berserk might not be for everyone's taste but I consider it one of the best manga out there. 1/2

*I* can't take much of Berserk, but I appreciate everything it's done. Such great art.

5 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

It is a gruesome work of art that captures the human soul in all its terrible brilliance.

5 years ago | Likes 19 Dislikes 0

its established the entire "dude with the huge sword" character archtype in the industry. All works that came after were inspired by it

5 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 0

And guts is one of the few who makes sense to have the huge sword

5 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

The backstory for his sword I pretty amusing. Blacksmith was tasked with making a sword that could kill a dragon. So he made one. 1/

5 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Wasn't his fault that it was so big and heavy the guy who asked for it couldn't wield it. Guts was the only human who could use it properly

5 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

And guts can only use it because he's been using swords too big for him since he was a child and even then he doesnt use it like its nothing

Berserk is the best the medium can deliver. It's a masterpiece. He died so young, with so much left to do. I'll miss him.

Oh no! I've always wanted to read this manga. I hope his family will be okay x

5 years ago | Likes 11 Dislikes 0

I still 100% recommend reading it, the artwork is beautiful & masterclass stuff. The story whilst obviously incomplete is truly fantastic.

5 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

There are many completed arcs, one particularly major character storyline got some semblance of closure in the past couple years too.

5 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Yeah I will! I always see the manga in shops ^o^ as it sounds but I was always scared to read it cause it looks like "boys" story XD

It's grim at times yeah - but has equal parts heart and compassion. The golden age can still bring me to tears.

I wonder if/how much Miura had instructed his staff & understudies about the remaining plot. Such a loss - I really adored his work :'(

My god - what happened to miura? Obviously not as important, but I gotta know - is there a plan for the story?

Aortic dissection, a very serious tear in the inner layer of the aorta. Miura has serious health problems for many years so this was it-

finally catching up to him. Tragic but not entirely surprising either.

He died, torn aorta from the sounds of things.

I followed it up and yeah, officially reported from the berserk team and publishers, so sad. No more struggling for Miura, rest well :(
