Seeing Guts lose pretty much everything he held dear over the past several volumes really hammers home the toll it's all taken on him. But the Hawks’ berserker champion, Guts, will take on perdition itself to save his lover, Casca, from the profane violations that only Hell can offer! The abrupt change in pace when we go back to present-day Guts on his mission to destroy all the demons, followed by Puck, certainly didn't help matters.

Firstly it took me a while to get through this one as this deluxe is split in two, the first half finished the golden age arc with the shocking and brutal final act that was the eclipse, this moment had some ballsy moments but they all truly pay off in a messed up kinda way.

It's either I'm a pushy bastard and I want Guts to slaughter Griffith but I swear we should be in the Godhand thingy.

In 2002, Kentarou Miura received the second place in the Osamu Tezuka Culture Award of Excellence for Berserk.

Luca is a saint and Nina is a sinner, yet Luca brings everyone together and loves them all unconditionally. Love the art, the action sequences are incredible, and there's a bizarre, Darger like quality to the back half. If you know what you’re getting into with this series, I can’t recommend the Deluxe Volume 5 highly enough!

Due to a disagreement with one of the editors, the manga was stalled and eventually dropped altogether. The Misty Elf arc is next, and while it starts a little slow and lingers at times, it still has moments of amazement on top of excellent art. Following the events of the eclipse, we get to see how Guts comes to get the giant sword he had in the first couple of volumes Berserk, which was awesome. The first three volumes serve as an interlude to help prepare you for the atrocities to come and may seem somewhat underwhelming in terms of plot, but believe me when I say the payoff is highly rewarding and memorable.

We see his vulnerability, his wounded soul, his ability to show affection to others, his role as a battle commander, and his blossoming relationships with Casca and Griffith; the two people who end up having the biggest impact on his entire life for very different reasons. In the same year, the 10th issue of Animal House witnesses the first volume of the solo project Berserk was released with a relatively limited success. Berserk has been my favorite manga, fantasy story and perhaps favorite story ever made for over a decade now and I was really sad to hear that the man behind the masterpiece passed away earlier this year. La manera de retratar y contar algo tan horrible y complicado como lo es el abuso infantil que choca con toda la violencia del autor y su personaje es tremendo.

Griffith, the mutilated leader of the Band of the Hawk mercenaries, offers up his command to the demon lords of the Godhand in exchange for a rebirth into beauty—and terrible power. 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. With the longest lasting sexual assault in terms of page length, I was left feeling SUPER uncomfortable with an intense feel of despair.Bookswagon may transfer or share any personal information that you submit with its third-party service providers, including but not limited to Bazaarvoice, Inc.
