Don't get spoiled, keep reading, it just gets better and better and more and more weird / effed up.

If you already love Berserk from the first deluxe edition, I can't wait for you to get to the rest of the story. It only gets better!

[MarlonEilert]

I still don't believe Kentaro Miura is gone :( Berserk changed my life! The animations worth a watch, specially the 1997 one! They are not the production it deserves but it is cool to see the characters "alive" and the soundtrack is amazing!

Dark, Beautiful & just THE GREATEST . ! And yes...avoid spoilers at all costs...! I'd recommend keep going and going coz You.will.keep.coming.back! Even after You are all caught up...

You're in for one of the rides of your life with this. The Golden Age arc is some of the best fantasy I have read. I've only just discovered your channel, so I don't know what you have read. But if you're into dark psychological stuff, I recommend Homunculus.

Your rollercoaster analogy is spot on! This manga plummeted me to some pretty raw emotional depths as Miura's ability to make me care about his characters and their relationships is second to none. Seriously, this book broke my heart multiple times (in the best way).

As for other manga:

Monster: Somebody already recommended another work from the same author (21st Cent. Boys) and I'd argue that all of his works are worth a read. However, this is probably one of the best psychological thrillers I've come across in any medium.

Mushishi: A slow, chill read with excellent world building and emotionality. Perfect pallet cleanser for something like Berserk.

Dorohedoro: A brutal sense of dark humour set in a grungy, violent and peculiar world. You say that you don't like action, so fair warning there's more than a bit here but it's executed with an over the top humorous flair that you might appreciate. Moreover, the cast is so bloody likeable that you'll wanna stick around just for them.

Hi Kira 🥰
I'm glad to see you I don't usually read this type of books, but with your review, I will read it now, thank you 👋🏻🥰

The plot of Berserk is divided in five major story arcs/sagas :

The Black Swordsman Arc/Saga = Volume 1 Deluxe Edition, Volumes 1–3 in Singles

The Second Arc/Saga = Volume 2 Deluxe Edition - Volume 5 Deluxe Edition, Volume 3–14 in Singles

The Third Arc/Saga = Volume 5 Deluxe Edition - Volume 7 Deluxe Edition, Volume 14–21 in Singles

The Fourth Arc/Saga = Volume 8 Deluxe Edition - Volume 12 Deluxe Edition (released in this December 2022), Volumes 22–35 in Singles

The Fith Arc/Saga = Volume 35– 41(current volume) in singles, Volume Deluxe 13(yet to be released) - TBA

So there are 41 Regular/Singles Volumes in English Print
And 11 Deluxe Volumes in English Print

Hope this info could helps you 👍

Some of my recommendations:

- Claymore
- 20th/21st Century Boys
- Oyasumi Punpun

You might like Claymore if you like Berserk, it's my favourite manga.
20th/21st Century Boys is an amazing mystery manga, really keeps you reading.
And Oyasumi Punpun is basically depression injected into your veins.

[sjoerddondersteen]

Berserk is supreme indeed, though far better known among manga circles then you might seem aware of (I think).
In case you're open for more manga recs, I would highly suggest you to give the following gems a shot:
- Hajime no Ippo (genuinely funny, motivating & endearing)
- Vagabond
- Vinland Saga
- Monster
- JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (The best is yet to come)
- Uzumaki: Spiral into Horror (or anything by Junji Ito)
- Kiseijuu (Parasyte)
- One Punch-Man

Fingers crossed that you might give these tremendous experiences in story-telling a shot in the near future. Have fun!
Greetings from the Netherlands!

[turtleanton]

There are 14...
More to come.
Rest In Peace Kentaro Miura

[michaelharrington]

I just got into manga as well. First manga I got was the Akira box set. I also picked up Gunnm and Nausicaä. Uzumaki is on the way, and I'm waiting for deluxe editions 11 12 and 13 to get here before I dive all the way in.

..."and pretty gruesome".
That's enough to keep me away.
Gives me a queasy feeling just hearing about it.

[jordisalinas]

Wow wow wow, I had been expecting this video for about 2 years :D :D I have commented a few times to express that Berserk is in my view the best Manga (that I have read). I could already recommend more Manga to read, but I really think you should keep reading Berserk. I mean, it can take some time, Berserk is not like in the category of the longest Manga, but it is not exactly short either. In my case I am currently reading it for the 2nd time, so your video is a good as it gets for me. I am certain that your fondness for Puck and Guts will greatly increase. Anyway, thanks for your videos, you always transmit so much energy!!! Have a great rest of the week!!

[dariiofernando]

I remember seeing about Berserk in old magazines a long, long time ago when I was little like 20 years ago or more, in the late 90s I was a crazy dragon ball fan and I liked to buy manga and magazines, and I remember seeing it there, so if I'm not mistaken this manga is something old; I will add it to my list'...I want to list all my books I've read, so I made a goodreads account =p

You are in for a treat. Bummed it won’t have a proper ending since the author passed away

[pt.dullahan]

Randomly stumbled upon this channel, without spoiling anything just wanted to say usually the 1st Deluxe volume doesn't get people hooked, so it's interesting to me that it's already catched your attention. I'll second what MattsoooN said, keep reading and definitely try to be careful with the comments, cause some people don't realize they foreshadow specific parts of the story and it takes away from the experience, imo. Although to be fair, most people within the fandom are reasonable so you might not have any issues at all. Interested to hear your thoughts for the next volumes if you decide to continue with the series, particularly on the art evolution.

[sorenjuro]

The girl from the other side and monster. When you get caught up in berserk it’ll be exciting for the fans, we enjoy seeing people experience the series. I own Akira too.
