For fans of modern manga titles like Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw Man, this classic manga is full of all the gristly gore and compelling villains you could ever want. Join the aptly named Guts and his tiny, comedic foil Puck as they fight through seemingly endless evils. It's hack-and-slash at its best.
Created by Kentaro Miura, Berserk is manga mayhem to the extreme - violent, horrifying, and mercilessly funny - and the wellspring for the internationally popular anime series. Not for the squeamish or the easily offended, Berserk asks for no quarter - and offers none!
His name is Guts, the Black Swordsman, a feared warrior spoken of only in whispers. Bearer of a gigantic sword, an iron hand, and the scars of countless battles and tortures, his flesh is also indelibly marked with The Brand, an unholy symbol that draws the forces of darkness to him and dooms him as their sacrifice. But Guts won't take his fate lying down; he'll cut a crimson swath of carnage through the ranks of the damned - and anyone else foolish enough to oppose him! Accompanied by Puck the Elf, more an annoyance than a companion, Guts relentlessly follows a dark, bloodstained path that leads only to death...or vengeance.

Berserk, Volume 3 By Kentaro Miura, Paperback
Editorial Reviews This ultraviolent fantasy manga is the first in a series about a cursed lone wanderer with a tragic fate and a cast of bio-horror demons. Deserving its name, Berserk offers a montage of merciless violence and thrilling action sequences in a blend of pure fantasy and graphic horror. Set in a netherworld of a science fiction Dark Age, the story's antihero is the appropriately named Guts (he's shameless, relentless and all strength). Guts is on a quest to avenge a flesh-eating demon ruler and lift his demon curse. Guts carries the sign of the curse on his neck a mysterious brand that attracts evil demons, spirits and the undead. Armed with a massive sword and metal cannonball-shooting prosthetic arm, he maneuvers through a cast of oddities: a pus and blood fetus monster, a giant cobra and an Aliens-like biomechanical monster. They all plague him in nightmares and waking life. Anyone who interacts with Guts is doomed, too, as either his victim or the incidental sufferer of his demon adversaries, and he winds up leaving a trail of carnage in every direction. Guts's unlikely companion, Puck, is an androgynous, winged elf who possesses magic healing powers, and while Guts scoffs at the sprite, Puck proves to be an invaluable buddy. Published in Japan in 1989, this work has a style characteristic of other 1980s manga, with sparse dialogue, spectacular action sequences and gritty character art. The pencil shading and use of shadows lend an ominous tone, and the frenetic and intense pace make Berserk a strong addition to the fantasy-horror manga genre. (Dec. 2003) Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information. Publishers WeeklyThe world of manga was devastated by the May 2021 death of Berserk creator Kentaro Miura, but Miura-sensei left behind one final volume to cap his thirty-plus-year commitment to his signature vision.
While Miura’s epic remains unfinished, Berserk Volume 41 is a fitting curtain call for the beloved series, filled with joy, sadness, laughter, and imagination.
Though Casca has at last been released from the prison of her own mind, she cannot escape the reminders of the terrors she has experienced. And nothing triggers the return of these harrowing memories than Guts the Black Swordsman, who faced those same horrors in his relentless quest to bring Casca to a place where she might be healed. But the reappearance of a strange, mute boy could well be the key to bringing peace to Casca’s troubled soul.

Editorial Reviews 04/01/2019 Guts, aka the Black Swordsman, is a heavily scarred mercenary with a metal arm that doubles as a crossbow and an almost comically enormous sword capable of vanquishing entire hordes of enemies with a single stroke. Guts is cruel, vile, and cursed by both a tragic past and a mysterious magical sigil, which is too bad for his numerous adversaries, including several savage and nightmarish demonic monsters, with which he comes into conflict through his endless wandering. After rescuing an elf named Puck, Guts can't shake the sweet and naïve sprite, who doubles as both comic relief and a counterpoint to Guts's nihilistic worldview. Fans of classic manga, sword-and-sorcery fantasy, and visceral horror will rejoice at this first volume in a new series of omnibus editions collecting the long-running series, which have inspired an array of video games, TV series, and film adaptations since first appearing in 1988. VERDICT Intense violence and graphic sexuality collide in what might be the most aptly titled fantasy saga of all time.
