Not only are a lot of the characters growing into their own shoes, but relationships are getting damaged and the feelings of our characters are getting more complex. It's insane that Kentaro Miura is able to show us how the trauma affects the characters to this extent. There’s some more fantastic, exciting and brutal action drawn in an amazing way! It also does things that a lot of action stories don’t do nearly enough which is making the action brutal emotionally as well as gory. Don’t get me wrong, readers will still most likely be excited to see Guts dismember the enemy but it touches on how the big, tough, bad-a** who mercilessly kills the enemy is affected by it. Since that time, the Berserk manga has spanned 34 tankōbon with no end in sight. The series has also spawned a whole host of merchandise, both official and fan-made, ranging from statues, action figures to key rings, video games, and a trading card game. In 2002, Kentarou Miura received the second place in the Osamu Tezuka Culture Award of Excellence for Berserk.[1] in Japanese). Hakusensha. Archived from the original on December 27, 2017 .

Above is my completely spoiler free review showing my appreciation for this series and its characters. When Guts recovers days later, he is forced into joining the Band of the Hawk when Griffith defeats him in a duel and later learns of the Beherit pendant Griffith possesses. Three years pass and the Band of the Hawk grow in power and numbers as they are employed by the Kingdom of Midland for its Hundred Year War against the Tudor Empire, and Griffith rises in the kingdom's hierarchy after a successful battle. During a siege, Guts and Griffith encounter the Apostle Nosferatu Zodd, a fearsome immortal warrior who nearly kills them before noticing Griffith's Beherit. Zodd takes his leave while warning Guts that Griffith will be his doom once the latter dream crumbles while still considering him a friend. Schierke is a young witch that serves to explain the more magical, fantastical and metaphysical elements of the world of Berserk while aiding Guts’s crew in their journey to fight against the alarming uprising of demonic creatures overrunning the land. The art is still fantastic, probably my favorite art in manga. So many wonderful panels. There’s a surprising amount of detail which you don’t get in a lot of manga.

Guts is an unstoppable badass, but he constantly suffers and contemplates his meaning in life. His sheer strength and relentless rage can’t hide the wounded little boy deep inside him. Casca is more fierce than most male soldiers on the battlefield and she has an attitude to match, so when we see her more feminine and loving side it makes her complex journey of self-realization all the more powerful. Griffith is a godlike war hero that millions of people worship, yet he has the deepest flaws, insecurities and inner darkness than any other character in the entire series. Most of all, they’re painfully human. These three represent the absolute best and absolute worst in all of us. That’s what makes them equally compelling, empathetic and utterly repulsive at times. This book does horror right. I like how instead of the typical gore, demons and monster kinda horror (which don’t get me wrong, that stuff is still really good and is the kind of thing this series often includes) it actually makes horror out of character PTSD which is unique and super well done.
