Evil_Genius Comic with a Berserk 285 Preview
» Posted April 24th, 2007 by psi29a
Considering the amount of craziness that goes on in the forums, we just had to make our own comic based on the events that transpire there. Fuji has offered to help us chronical the madness, so I present to you all, Evil_Genius’ very own web-comic!
*points to new tab at the top*
We started off with 3 comics up front to get things rolling, and for now it will be infrequent. The core of the artwork and story is Fuji and editing done by LordMune.
The comic starting from page 1!
This update isn’t over yet, it’s time for another timely Berserk preview!
第285話 英雄
Chapter 285: Hero

Enjoy!
edit: We now have the 285 raw and. Cleaning and double-page editing is almost complete, we are now waiting for translation and typesetting.

The title of #285 is “Hero” by the way.
April 24th, 2007 at 8:37 pm
Wow, that’s some unpardonably tall preview.
April 25th, 2007 at 2:28 am
i wonder when the series will shift back to the Guts arc
April 25th, 2007 at 9:09 am
I can’t wait for it to be released
April 25th, 2007 at 9:09 am
Looks great
April 25th, 2007 at 12:23 pm
Looks like we will have an other chapter without Guts….
April 25th, 2007 at 3:54 pm
well, wouldn’t it be unwise to shift to a new guts arc a when there’s a couple of chapters till this volume is complete?
April 25th, 2007 at 5:08 pm
Nice preview, but im now even more curiously interested about the EG comic ^^
April 25th, 2007 at 8:09 pm
i wish miura could start writing Berserk from begin, with a new storyline but same characters.
its just too awesome!!!
April 25th, 2007 at 8:36 pm
great detail as always
April 26th, 2007 at 1:30 am
It’s nuts how far the story has progressed from the anime. Sometimes it seems like it’s not even the same story.
April 26th, 2007 at 8:49 am
habibaHo – Maybe this could be done in a well-created-charracters-nothing-else comic like Bleach for example,but you know Gutts from his birth,his “Character“was forged in the road,it didn`t sudenly pop-up“Hello,I`m Gutts or Griffith or Casca i am this abd this…“.That`s Berserk`s strenth…
- -
U
— —-that was very grandly spoken…
April 26th, 2007 at 11:27 am
i was talking about new storyline BUT same character!
that means all “forged” characters should stay the same BUT the “road” should be different…
of course this was just an idea, im sure miura wouldnt do that.

great can’t wait for it to be released. looks great as always. erm…. about the web-comic…do you guys need other stories or are you just fine with 1 ?
I could offer some help in making a web-comic.
April 26th, 2007 at 1:07 pm
Owen and Laban are awesome!!!
April 26th, 2007 at 2:31 pm
guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuts!!!! shit ..
April 26th, 2007 at 5:15 pm
The amount of detail that is put into their eyes (nay, the entire panel) is astounding! Whenever I find myself looking for new manga to read I always benchmark it against Berserk. Failure is usually the case…
April 26th, 2007 at 7:19 pm
well Vagabond, Shamo, AngelSanctuary, Monster/20thCB, Jiraishin!, Alichino, Homonculus, BotImmortal and DragonHead are on surely par with Berserk.
aw i so hope to see new stuff of Jiraishin….
April 26th, 2007 at 8:40 pm
Art is not just about detail but style too. Some manga may have very few detail but there style can be greater. In other words art is just like food, It all depends what are tasts are that makes other seem greater. I am glad to see berserk back and running again
April 26th, 2007 at 10:04 pm
Great !!! I’m waiting.
Thank U ,oblivion for those you recommended.
I had read all but i found Berserk is the best !!!
April 27th, 2007 at 3:31 am
I cant wait for the new release. Although im ardent to see guts and his side of the story, im quite glad to see more of the new Band of the Hawk and Griffth. We should all be accustom to Miura’s tactics of shifting to different parts of the story to keep u at the edge of ur seat.
April 27th, 2007 at 6:37 am
Well, he might want to show Grifith as the second main character
April 27th, 2007 at 7:55 am
cim bom bom ;p
April 27th, 2007 at 10:25 am
Yeah, Oblivion, Monster/20thCB are probably 2nd on my list of best style and artwork. Coincidendally, awesome artwork seems to follow awesome manga. It’s weird that I haven’t seen a crappy manga with stunning visuals. Examples, people?
April 27th, 2007 at 12:49 pm
Can somebody tell my why griffith just doesen’e use his evil powers and take over Midland by force?
Does he really have to seduce charlotte?
PS: Long live EG forever and ever and ever!
April 27th, 2007 at 3:07 pm
Well he wanted to be king, supported by the ppl of the land. Not a tyrant who conquers his way up…
April 27th, 2007 at 4:28 pm
Wonder if something hapens later to grifith cus he took the body of that litle fetus.
April 27th, 2007 at 6:22 pm
yeh, like the whole beating heart shyte at the graveyard of swords or whatever dramatic name it was given?
April 27th, 2007 at 6:28 pm
Hero = Guts ^^
April 27th, 2007 at 6:38 pm
I`m not quite shure that he took that body, remember that little kid that showed up when they were on their way to the port, when they stayed by the sea……..He had almost the same powers as the fetus…… However, Griffith is still the bad guy, After all he did to Gutz, I was hoping averybody would be impatient waiting for the story to go back to Gutz insted of saying Yay!! Griffith rules!! I dont like that much attention on Griffith.
April 27th, 2007 at 7:06 pm
Isn’t it going a tad bit too far on Guts part to blame Femto for Griffith’s betrayal at the eclipse? Femto = Idea’s reincarnation of the mortal Griffith’s desires, while Griffith = asshole, killer, 5th God’s Hand bastard. The only crime that Femto is accountable for is the demise of the Sheirke’s teacher, and the subsequent actions which caused the two worlds to vividly overlap one another. Still, though, ya gotta give Femto some credit for not allowing Caska to get squished by the rock avalanche at Godo’s forge, ya know?
The onl
April 27th, 2007 at 7:56 pm
don’t forget the rape.
April 27th, 2007 at 8:27 pm
-alonso ,i think that kid is the king of the elves. well maybe puck’s king. and he was most curious on both caska’s and gutz brand. well if u have noticed. the king of elves maybe is looking through this war and may play a roll if he will assist gutz, and the part of reviving caska’s memory.
April 27th, 2007 at 9:08 pm
Can’t forget the rape. Yet, I didn’t hear her say “no”!
-_-;
April 27th, 2007 at 10:26 pm
When they reach pucks homeland there is going to be and I can 110% guarantee it that it will probably be the moment that changes the story of berserk for the remainder of the series. Also, didn’t skull knight mention that after Guts, Casca, and Rickert were pulled away from the eclipse that guts might share some connection with the elves? And my last question is that does anyone think that there is away to remove the brand of sacrifice? And finally if miura gets to the point where he can’t draw Berserk anymore(hopefully that day will never come) he damn well better finish it off in novelization form.
April 28th, 2007 at 12:15 am
In the last chapter I wondered why Griffith didn’t show off his entire army, ie Zodd and the other half-demon dragon knight crew
April 28th, 2007 at 12:37 am
Because he wants others to see him as a hero, the prince on a white horse, the one who rescued everyone, not as captain of beasts, monsters and dragons (considered evil in the m.ages).
But I guess I shouldn’t give obvious answers to the kids.
So… anytime soon…
April 28th, 2007 at 3:28 am
Where’s The Black Swordsman…….
April 28th, 2007 at 3:28 am
Puck has to be the elf king, who else would say the reason for why he left that paradise- I got bored- or something close

————————————————————–
But still Guts unlocks there his ultimate rage,his inner beast .From that moment on as we know Guts isn’t the same.I remeber the words of Caska:”Please…don’t watch…please…” yep Guts then lost his right eye.She was helpless but most of all the thing that bothers Guts the most is that he was the helpless one unable to strike like he’s use to.Cut,kill,destroy he was screaming of rage man.I’ve never seen other hero whit so destructive rage…nope berserk yep.When you are in berserk everything is your enemy…Ohhhh maaaan I want to know what is hapening whit Guts & co.
April 28th, 2007 at 8:38 am
Right, so… 285 is in our hands and we are almost done cleaning. We are waiting for the translation to finish.
April 28th, 2007 at 9:18 am
Yay
April 28th, 2007 at 10:30 am
Great work guys. I’m looking forward to reading this one.
April 28th, 2007 at 11:53 am
dont understand why ppl hate griffith…
ya should understand his target, his goal in this story and he must made the offering during the eclipse to move on to that goal!
i give u a clue, an old quotation:
all unite under ONE heaven.
April 28th, 2007 at 11:59 am
question is this just going to be a bersrk?
no zetman or anything else?
just wondering
GOOD JOB

@44:
The end justifies the means, eh?
Meh. The bastard should’ve just not accepted it and be dragged to the vortex… that’s what a REAL man would’ve done.
April 28th, 2007 at 1:04 pm
:alma|gebra
hey , the perspective MUST be seen right. true its good to achieve dreams and goal, but along that way to sell out ur best mate aka fren , thats trash. alas all unite under one heaven are trash too.
April 28th, 2007 at 1:26 pm
Hmm, i get the feeling it will be so that Grifith tries to destroy the other members of the god five using Guts help and then when they are dead have a final battle betwen them 2
April 28th, 2007 at 2:02 pm
I agree with all you Griffith dislikers, after all, he is the story’s true villan. and what he did to guts in the eclipse is unforivable. Made me cry. after all the fighting Guts did for him too during the eclipse. I hope Gust slices off Griff’s leggs and gives his ass back to that count who used to molest him in the early days for money…
April 28th, 2007 at 2:28 pm
That old count got killed by Griffith a long time ago. You know what would be a great way to get revenge on Griffith? Using one of the Five Gods hands(the small levitating guy) to show Griffiths past to his followers and/or people. I bet the princess dont wanna deal with a friend sacrificing raper ever again. Though its kinda impossible, but maybe when Griffiths all beat up after Guts kicked his ass and they say they dont want a weak God Hand or something like that.
April 28th, 2007 at 3:21 pm
Berserk is the most awesome manga I ever read ! I reread the volume 6 to 12 and WOW that too much great. Best manga ! I hope it will finish in a good way for the poor Guts and Caska.. too much thing have change with time, but always exceptional ! Fight for your life !
April 28th, 2007 at 5:27 pm
Hey Shinobi, i think they are going to make it so that Guts fights Grifith in his human form, cuts him so badly or in half and out emerges his demon form. All whille the princess is watching or the people .
MAn so many diferent ways it might hapen, cant wait^^
April 28th, 2007 at 5:36 pm
man i just can’t wait
i am visitng this site every 15 minutes hoping for the relese
April 28th, 2007 at 6:17 pm
me 2. lol.
April 28th, 2007 at 6:35 pm
So what does EG say , is this a chapter we should cheak on every moment we have free …..or should we go to sleep and take it easy?^^
April 28th, 2007 at 6:55 pm
it’s currently 1:52AM where i live – gues i’ll stay up until i’ll see a relese – EG – my mental health depends on you
p.s. keep up the good work – you guys rock !
April 28th, 2007 at 6:56 pm
20mins 4 me.
April 28th, 2007 at 9:53 pm
ok – it’s 4:53AM and I’m still a bersek-o-holic
i need my fix
April 28th, 2007 at 11:08 pm
I’ve seen the RAWS, looks good, can’t wait for the scanlations.
I’m more dissapointed in the fact that there’s gonna be another break ’til June 22th, but alas I can wait. Good news is that in the next chapter Guts and crew are gonna come back, from what I’ve heard was announced by Miura in YA.
April 28th, 2007 at 11:34 pm
I’m about to die from waiting…
April 29th, 2007 at 12:27 am
I cannot thank you guys enough. The only possible way I think I can show my gratitute is to buy all the Berserk manga when they are eventually released in the U.S.
Seriously, thanks you guys.
April 29th, 2007 at 1:57 am
griffiths goal, his wish isnt selfish!
forget that shit about good hero and bad bad villain, this is not a marvel comic…
berserk is profoundlier, and when miura ends this story it´ll be a masterpiece!
May 4th, 2007 at 3:07 pm
It is a masterpiece and Griffith’s goal is very much selfish. Griffith wants to unite the world, but come on look at all the shit that is happening. Trolls popping out to kill, rape, and eat people. Wierd ass ugly apostles also eating and raping and killing. The end definitely does not justify the means in this story. Guts will be victorious. His journey after all is, but one word. Heroic.
May 6th, 2007 at 5:34 am
@Gutsthehero
u seem to be obsessed by guts, thats why u only see what u want to see, the bad villain griffith and the hero guts!
true is, that both did good things and of course bad things, too! 1 more than the other. miura symbolize the human nature, the real life!
go read the marvel comics, the good and bad stuff, when u just want entertainment!
berserk is a heavy and profound story, try to see the whole note and the characters from a neutral position…
that goes to all people with a fast judgement
—–im out!
