Angel Heart, Breaction, Zetman releases!
» Posted February 3rd, 2008 by Eldo
You heard right, releases are here!
Torrents:
So yeah, I kept my promise of having at least 5 releases. We could have more, but I got lazy. We’ll have them ready for the next release batch. Hope you enjoy them. Still, no Berserk, so don’t ask. I heard from a little elf that, for the next chapter to appear, each person must buy a 100 copies of the volumes. So, uh, get cracking. It’s all up to you now.
EDIT: Because some people didn’t get it, my remark about people buying 100 copies of the volumes…was a joke. As in, an amusing and supposed witty device to provoke laughter. It doesn’t seem it was that funny to some people, who took it seriously and thought it was Miura’s word. Heh, no, that was all me. I thought a demand of this ludicrous nature was obviously a joke and people would get it. What Miura really wants is to you to save the Nigerian princess by giving all your bank account details so she could transfer billions of dollars into your account and run away together so no one would know of your secret love. Now, if you don’t get if that is a joke or not, I give up (and just in case everyone is that dense, no, Miura did not say anything of that sort, and no, don’t give your bank account details to this ‘Nigerian princess’. I’ll spell out what is a joke next time).

Fuck yeah, Zetman! Go me!

Thanks for the releases.I just started reading B. Reaction and I liked it very much but is it true that it was discontinued by the author?It started in 2004 and only 2 volumes are out.It seems odd that 4 years and only 2 volumes and I read somewhere that its finished at 2?
February 4th, 2008 at 1:14 am
YES!!! THANK YE GODS!!!
February 4th, 2008 at 1:41 am
THANKS >>>> you made my day with Zetman !!!
February 4th, 2008 at 4:28 am
OMG how could you end the zetman releases right at the end of a cliffhanger? Now I’ll have to wait 2 months for my next fix! Argh!!!
February 4th, 2008 at 4:54 am
Oh my God ! Now I badly need Zetman next chapter !!
thank you so much

February 4th, 2008 at 5:24 am
It has been put to an end by the publisher after the second volume, so it has a rushed, incomplete ending. The second volume, by the way, was never even put out as a tankoubon publication; which is why EG had such a hard time finding raws for it.
February 4th, 2008 at 5:56 am
Thanks for Zetman.
February 4th, 2008 at 7:55 am
Many thanks!! Should maybe start reading Zetman again. Have almost 40 chapters to catch up :/
February 4th, 2008 at 10:00 am
I love you guys; I really do. Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you. Good luck with all of your scanlations… and have whatever kind of day you want.

February 4th, 2008 at 11:38 am
Rats! I thought by “at least 5 releases” you meant 5 releases EACH!! >_<
Anyways, thank you very much!!
February 4th, 2008 at 11:38 am
Thanks so much!!
February 4th, 2008 at 12:07 pm
Thank you
February 4th, 2008 at 12:12 pm
I started to read Zetman cause of the long berserk delay – its great! A bit trashy but great
Thanks for the update.
February 4th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
ok wtf? R u telling me that Kentaro miura didnt set a release date on his berserk and is not writing berserk until he gets more people to buy his books? r u kiddin me? I buy all the shit that I can or want to buy. I have every volume available to me that i bout and your tellin me that this guy doesnt have enough money to keep making more books? are you serious?
February 4th, 2008 at 2:41 pm

I’m confused… Who said something like that?
But if you need Berserk this much why dont you read another manga while waiting? Like chewing a nicotine gum instead of smoking. Go get a substitute manga fix – its fun!
February 4th, 2008 at 3:58 pm

That is what was said at the beginning of this discussion. it leads me to believe that for the next chapter to appear Miiura wants to know that he still has a large abundance of fans. that is what I get from that. That is what is implied. If this was a joke I would like to know, because if not than that is very depressing. Not that I’m gonna go kill myself over it; but it is such a shame. Any how, as always, I must thank Evil genius for keeping up its work, I appreciate all that you have done involving berserk.
February 4th, 2008 at 4:25 pm
Naah… Nevermind the story of a “someone”… I cant believe Miura wouldnt like to continue his great manga.
February 4th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
Pretty sure that was a joke gents.
February 4th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
You know how I said that you need to buy 100 copies of Berserk? I was kidding. Seriously, it was a joke, albeit a bad one. Come on, as if a creator would demand something like that. I thought as long as I make the demand as ridiculous as possible people would know that it’s not real, and take it as a joke. Apparently not. That’s a bit scary. Next time, I’ll try to refrain from jokes. My original joke was that people kill 100 lambs in sacrifice to Miura’s name (with a pentagram and everything), to appease the mangaka so he shall draw the next chapter, but thankfully, that didn’t happen. Jesus. There goes my attempt on humour when someone starts to take it literally.
February 4th, 2008 at 5:06 pm
Well… That was as obvious a joke as i’ve ever seen, but still, it was pretty clear that some poeple wouldn’t get it… After all, this is the Internet…
February 4th, 2008 at 5:21 pm
wow, people took your comment seriously?
February 4th, 2008 at 5:22 pm
The next release of berserk is coming out February 28th.
February 4th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
Interage, where did you get the release date of Berserk? Also, Berserk tends to come out on a Friday, which would be on the 29th.
February 4th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
i did not dare ask this 12 hours ago and barely do so now, what happened with Berserk and Biomega, not my intention to be rude or anything just curiosity, a lot of curiosity and obsession.^^ [may i not be cut to pieces and burned alive in the next minute for my profane question]
February 4th, 2008 at 5:48 pm
I will only answer that they would be out when they are available. And yes, that is a bad question, which is why you get a bad answer, but I’m in a relatively good mood and choose not to burn you alive.
February 4th, 2008 at 8:37 pm
B-Reaction! MORE!! *drool*
February 5th, 2008 at 12:08 am
People actully took the joke seriously.
February 5th, 2008 at 12:18 am
Zetman chapters! Thank god, I ran out of good stuff to read a while back
Thanks again.
February 5th, 2008 at 4:37 am
the nigerian princess is all mine… everyone else stay away from her!
February 5th, 2008 at 5:37 am
Thx for Zetman
And the second joke is funnier

February 5th, 2008 at 6:15 am
@eldo. well I guess you would be the one to know that the my release info was BS. So that didn’t work.
February 5th, 2008 at 6:30 am
Yeah, Interage, it wasn’t exactly that ludicrous and obvious that it could be dismissed immediately. Still, I remain skeptical.
February 5th, 2008 at 7:16 am
I don’t want to run away with the money-laundering nigerian princess. I’ll take the 100 berserk volumes please.
February 5th, 2008 at 9:36 am
DAMN YOU NIGERIA! Your money is always in another bank!!!
February 5th, 2008 at 11:59 am
Hey! Dont tease him because he took it seriously… This is the internet! Everything written here is ofcourse the truth
Btw any princesses left for me?
February 5th, 2008 at 1:29 pm
Thanks Thana = )
Much appreciated
February 5th, 2008 at 1:31 pm
Hm… Feb 29th you say? That would be fine with me if it truely did come out at that time. But w/e. I’ll wait and see.
February 5th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
if only there was a true release date…..
February 5th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
I wonder if even miura knows how much of an impact berserk was. haha i meen really come on. As for the jokes goin around here, maybe its time we stuck to serious facts thatw ay certain people wont become “excited” for no aparent reason.
February 5th, 2008 at 4:15 pm
just put a smile (like
) at the end of the joke, so the stupidiest nerd or geek will know to laugh.
(in case someboy feels offensed – i didnt intend it
)
February 5th, 2008 at 4:43 pm
quote: (in case someboy feels offensed – i didnt intend it

So in fact you intended it? The smiley is irritating
February 5th, 2008 at 5:55 pm
Well, thx a lot for B.Reaction… Been waiting for it… Love it… You’re Great! =)
February 5th, 2008 at 6:35 pm
I can def sense hostility coming alog >_>
In any case, I hope that when the next chapter of berserk comes along, the rest of the chapters will come along in small increments of time.
February 6th, 2008 at 8:11 am
/me starts whining: biomegaaaaa, biomegaaaa… *sob* *sob* more biomega please…. *uwhaaaaaaa*
seriously. Plot of biomega start getting more and more cofusing. I’d die if there wouldn’t be any scanlation in near future…
February 6th, 2008 at 9:53 am
Man, I already purchased 58 copies doh! I also submitted my contact and bank info to the Nigerian Email Lottery. I can’t wait for my millions to be sent to my account.
February 6th, 2008 at 11:51 am
@Evil_Genius Team: I would like to make a few “Manga Propositions”, and if you believe they suck, well, you are ultimately the judges.
Agharta
Blade of the Immortal
Bokko
Cromartie High School
Vampire Hunter D
Battle Angel Alita
Guin Saga
Or, we can all feel bad together and pick up Barefoot Gen.
Personally, I was hoping for Cromartie, seeing as how the blatantly stupid, yet infectious humor, and somewhat impressive artwork is like an antithesis to Berserk.

unfortunately these nigerian scams are more effective than we think.

I think the next pool “when will next berserk chapter be published?” should have an “6 months” or “hell knows” option. Maybe we could organise bets: 100$ that the next berserk chapter will be out on 29th or sth
<<<<>>>>
February 6th, 2008 at 3:43 pm
I just don’t understand. Can some one tell me the correct answer as to why Miura hasn’t set a release date yet? It is just so unprofessional.
February 6th, 2008 at 4:48 pm
Thanks for another great release Evil Genius!
February 6th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
@BlackAxez: hahahaha… unprofessional? Then why do you come here other than to steal his work?
February 6th, 2008 at 6:09 pm
Shakes, all the project proposals which you mentioned are either licensed, or done by another group. I specified that the projects must be either unlicensed or not done by another scanlation group in the previous posts. So no, those ideas are shot down.
I’d rather start a new project from scratch, than continue on from ongoing and well-known projects that are bound to be either worked on by 12032103123123 groups, or licensed.
February 6th, 2008 at 6:59 pm
@psi29a: ??? Negative comments aren’t needed man. You can not deny that what he is doing is unprofessional. I am a fan who buys his work all the time. ANd once the new volumes that are coming out now are sold in stores I’ll be the one buying them, so don’t tell me I steal his work because its not my fault The volumes are too slow to be released in America on time.
February 6th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
Psi29a: I don’t know who you are Psi, but negative comments aren’t needed. I didn’t talk smack about you. I am a fan who buys all the berserk can I can. And once the books thata re coming out now arrive in stores in america, I’ll be one of many to buy them, so dont say I steal his work because its not my fault that the chapters havnt arrived in america for sale yet. Soon I will pay for them. Besides, why are you here?
February 6th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
LOL at BlackAss……..
February 6th, 2008 at 7:59 pm
Hey, I’ve been visiting EG for awhile but never posted, just wondering whether you are still scantalating biomega…fell in love with it on first sight, the story’s so goood!!
February 6th, 2008 at 8:10 pm
Just in case you don’t know BlackAxez, psi is the administrator of the EG website and forums. He’s the guy who pays all the bills so you can post a comment and bitch about how unprofessional Miura is. Sure, you could call Miura unprofessional/hack/killer, but if you want to act on it, then don’t read and buy Berserk in defiance. That’ll show him. The rest of us will just wait patiently, while you boycott his products. Oh, what a pain in his heart he’ll feel…
February 6th, 2008 at 8:59 pm
You tell him Eldo……
February 7th, 2008 at 12:43 am
Why Can’t I just say my opinion? I meen I’ve stated that i apreciate your work and everything that entails, but I thought that i could ask a question and then give my opinion. What you guys do is great, but I dont see why i should be slapped down for saying my opinion. I’ve made one comment in aggresion towards miura and all i wanted was a correct answer on why there is no release date.
February 7th, 2008 at 4:01 am
The reason there is no release date is because Miura himself doesn’t know when his episode will be ready! Pretty simple, he isn’t doing this to piss the consumers off. Thanks for the hard work EG, cannot wait to see the release date on Berserk, such a good news day that will be.
Don’t forget downloaders, buy the Dark Horse Manga of Berserk! Support Miura! Very important, they aren’t too expensive either.
February 7th, 2008 at 9:34 am
@BlackAxez: This is the point where I say ‘pot meet kettle’ but that would be giving you to much credit. Miura can only be described as unprofessional by other professionals, hence his peers. We clearly are not that.
Now that you have voiced your opinion without me deleting it, it is time for mine. Your opinion has some pretty serious entitlement issues that need to be addressed. Not only that, you seem to be under the delusion that Miura works for you. That simply is not the case. Also your want of a ‘correct’ answer is interesting, because the only real answer is that we don’t know and that this is typical Miura behaviour.
Now, you have some choices. You can continue down the path of asking silly questions and bemoaning Miura or you can contribute something useful, perhaps even thoughtful.
February 7th, 2008 at 11:55 am
Zetman!!! Thanks!!!
February 7th, 2008 at 11:59 am
Its funny to ask some scanlators… as if they are alway in direct contact with Miura, discussing the next releases and the best ways of translating it. The EG-team surely knows everything Mr. Miura has in his mind
(<- yes! the smiley marks ironical content here)
February 7th, 2008 at 12:12 pm
BReaction!_16: i came. moar. thanks a lot.
February 7th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
you have all been very rude. you totally dont understand and i know you wont be able to no matter how much i try to reason with you. i ask a simple question and every one goes balistic. well i’m not going to continue to try an elaborate on my ideas with those who would poke fun and talk trash over the internet about such a small thing. i expected alot better.
February 7th, 2008 at 1:10 pm
I always envied people being able to point at invisible someones declaring them as the evil ones disturbing the peace and harmony of the holy internet.
Just accept your “simple” question as stupid. As long as you dont expect Miura being in the EG staff (you wouldnt, would you?) there will be no one able to answer it than the grand master himself. Its like walking into taliban headquarters asking for the final results of the next US votes… You think the reactions here are rude – I feel disturbed by your stupid question. But you dont mind my feelings… Thats rude
February 7th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
@BlackAxez: I apologize then, I didn’t realize Evil_Genius was a platform for your ideas.
Did you ever stop to consider that perhaps the framing of your simple question was crass given the abundance of other posts and that belittling the only reason why you are here may be considered rude?
Let me pontificate on how we do things in the world of science, we poke holes in other people’s ideas/opinions. This is called peer review. From Newton to Pons and Fleischmann had to deal with this, not because the other people had to be ‘rude’ or ‘dicks’ but because it is necessary to produce good results and let bad science die a horrible death.
The same in this case for your opinions and ideas. You shouldn’t express your ideas and opinions unless you are willing to *accept* push back.
You have taken criticism here, why not learn from it and realize that bad-mouthing Miura is not endearing and demanding a ‘correct’ answer for a release date that no one, not even Miura himself knows about is arrogant.
Welcome to the Internet, it has been like this since 1977. I think you have set your expectations too high and still have issues with entitlement.
February 7th, 2008 at 5:57 pm
Thanks guys for all you are doing for BReaction’s fans!!!
February 7th, 2008 at 9:52 pm
Ah but really, the Berserk storyline has reached a certain point where it is somewhat difficult to resolve. It could be Miura is just having a writer’s block…
February 8th, 2008 at 2:58 am
I will say this on the topic between psi and blackaxez. Both sides have valid points. First off, this is not a public/private institution, organization, or company in which “real world” laws and standards apply. This is the internet and “virtual” laws are nondescript or even nonexistant. With this said, EG is not an organization, institution, or a company. It is considered a “virtual open forum” that happens to provide free scanalations. Thus, they are not required in any way to be civil, polite, indiscriminate, accepting, ect, ect…or in other words (cuz this is coming across harsh and EG freakin rules so don’t take it that way) they are in no way required to be your friend.
With this said, anyone coming here should never be under the impression that EG releases a product in which you consume and thus has moral and legal obligations to you. They provide a free service for their own enjoyment, perhaps for the enjoyment of others, but are not receiving any compensation for any such activities preformed. You are not their customer, they are not your supplier (in an economical sense). This is how it is for many sites on the internet.
So to say it short and simple, never come to any site on the internet and expect anything. It is the internet, and until internet neutrality is completely demolished and internet censorship becomes fully functional, you can damn near say anything you want, be anyone you want, and read anything you want. Whether its goo or bad is not the point. The point is its the internet…let things go whether you agree with them or not…cuz in the end…they hold the keys, they say when to stop, they are not responsible for serving you.
I hopes this helped any and all internet surfers from endless wars of flames and general discontent
Oh ya, and thanks EG for your long, loyal, and constant dedication to free scans. Not many people care about quality, not many people are willing to take shit for delays of all types, not many people are willing to do what you do day in and day out…and we all, even blackaxez I’m sure, truely appreciate that.
February 8th, 2008 at 11:31 am
It’s times such as these that I see the true beauty of form behind these little discussion pages. Twice the amount of chairs to the face found in a Jerry Springer episode and a napalm induced cleansing of stupid comments, ideas, and people. This is reminiscent of synthesizing diamonds from crude carbon, or feces-to-gold alchemy.
@Eldo and Psi29: Thank you; you’ve reminded me through this prior exchange what makes the Berserk wait so bearable: gong shows, firefights and content related debate, speculation, and debunking. It’s like a Cirque de Solail of dismemberment and humiliation. We don’t need more manga, we need more fire. Bring on the hapless Naruto fans and Fruits Basket elite!
February 8th, 2008 at 7:55 pm
Let me guess this straight because i,a man of science (of Social Science that is) am confuse:
—-This might be long and confuse, specially for those who only dabble on physics (Bill Hicks joke here, not take the physics part seriously, this is the internet you know)—-
»So you by naming a creator unprofessional, while buying (what seems) religiously his works right after their releases, because he didn’t present a date for the next release chapter of this latest work, which you once again decide not to wait for the official release but to downloading and read it now, it’s mering stating an opinion?
That’s what i and my peers like to call “bullshit” and “arrogant rude behaviour” (or simply “evil fuck behaviour”).
In another remark: I know, for a certain source, that Eldo is Miura in disguise and he married a nigerian princess thanks to Mr. Henry Okuko.
February 8th, 2008 at 9:03 pm
Death%rebirth, wtf are you talking about? haha When has a creator of any work never given a time, date, or even a simple area of time when a certain work will be released? Miura has always had a release date before and now it comes to such a shock that he randomly decides to not have one now. You act as though we are all below Miura on some grand scale. Like he is some sort of higher being that may not be questioned by ones such as we. Sure I adore the work he has created, but he is still a human being who can be judged and criticized. I have sat here and taken in all of your opinions, but I just dont see how anything you just said makes any sense…..I stated an opinion, I got criticized, I explaine my opinion, and then thats it. Rudeness is rudeness and you are simply ignorant. “evil fuck behavior” is nonsense unless youc an explain to me what exactly is good and evil. Come talk to me again when you go back to school.
February 8th, 2008 at 10:51 pm
*LOL…a lot of D&RB’s post was over my head as well.
As far as Miura goes on this forum, he is on a higher scale. He is the reason we are all here.
You have every right to your opinion. But if you want to criticize on a public forum, its only natural to expect some in return, especially when your criticism is not justified from where you stand.
The way you wear your heart on your sleeve makes you an easy target, like pasting a big fat bullseye on your forehead. If you’re so offended why do you keep on posting a bunch of nonsense only to fan the flamage?
The fact is these long delays, are not unprecedented with Miura, and are in fact something we have come to expect. Whether we fans like it or not, its something you are just going to have to accept. Maybe if Miura wasn’t such a great writer in giving us a work such as Berserk, he wouldn’t get away with pulling these delays with fans, BUT OBVIOUSLY HE CAN! No one says you have to like it.
February 8th, 2008 at 11:05 pm
Still, unguarded complaints against Miura and/or the Evil Genius team here are considered to be rude behavior. I would liken it to a situation where a hungry beggar on the street is kindly ushered in to the home of a wealthy family and offered a luxurious hot meal; said beggar hasn’t eaten in days much less eaten a meal of such quality.
The question here is, would it not be rude and somewhat ignorant of the beggar to bang his fists on the table and curse the host family because the food takes somewhat longer to cook than the readypop popcorn he had to eat three days ago? Also, I don’t think that he would complain about set times where he would get such a privilege, and neither should we, seeing as it is indeed a massive privilege that we are offered by Evil Genius; If it weren’t for Miura taking his time, we’d have something like Naruto or One Piece *shudders*. If it weren’t for Evil Genius, the translations on the scans we could find would either be in Japanese (I myself could likely understand about 75% of it) or would be terrible translations. And, lets not forget, that were we not offered this privilege we would still be years behind the Japanese releases.
We sometimes let our desires get out of our control, but lets keep in mind that EG and Kentarou Miura don’t have to do these things; they do so because they find pleasure in doing so. This in turn brings us pleasure, and people that threaten the supply of Berserk through barking up the wrong trees should at least be rebuked. Let’s think before we talk everyone.
February 8th, 2008 at 11:20 pm
I’m an amateur manga artist, a speck of dust compared to Miura’s level, but his manga drawing style has been my inspiration since I first laid eyes on Berserk. That style of art, much less the unfathomably deep story that he has spun into Berserk are very intricate, well practiced, and very elaborately done.
Did you stop to think at all about the way in which a mangaka works? It is very important that you realize that a good manga artist such as he needs many, many reference photographs for their work seeing as they need to envision and appropriately illustrate their vision. Seeing as how we are likely to see the port of Eath (Es?) or Elfhelm, or more of Midland or the detailed world surrounding Berserk he needs a solid point of reference. He’s not going to be satisfied using Pirates of the Caribbean for his visual sources, if you get my drift. Even if he wasn’t looking for sources or looking to further develop his manga with this break, I think we shouldn’t question a Miura vacation; hell, with the intensity in which he churns out high quality manga I’m in awe that he didn’t die 7 years ago from overwork. As tolerant and open minded people, lets give some consideration, alright?
February 9th, 2008 at 2:17 am
It’s pretty sad when you have to edit a ridiculous claim like that and say it’s a joke.
February 9th, 2008 at 6:07 am
Berserk is out on the 22nd of February.
February 9th, 2008 at 6:21 am
Great now hopefully certain people can settle down.
That said, Feb.22nd can’t come soon enough.
February 9th, 2008 at 6:57 am
EDIT: By the 22nd not coming fast enough, I’m of course speaking for those in Japan. Though looking forward myself, to reading new Berserk in the coming months. The fact that we have a date set is a relief in itself.
Just one less thing to worry about though. As now I can focus my attention solely on procuring that money order that should be arriving in my bank account, which should be anyday now.
February 9th, 2008 at 7:37 am
Black Axe:
“he is still a human being who can be judged and criticized. I have sat here and taken in all of your opinions, but I just dont see how anything you just said makes any sense…..I stated an opinion, I got criticized, I explaine my opinion, and then thats it”
K so let’s suppose none of us was rude, then by that logic from the *then thats it* you expect people to simply nod and smile at you? By your own logic, then we have the right to criticize and judge you as well – you take it as rude – fine, they tried to make their point and now you’re feeling offended but I dunno man, try to see this as reverse psychology?
And Miura is in Japan. Hell maybe in that country to them marketing ethics is more based on quality instead of quick and accurate release dates.
Many have been saying it looks like the end of Berserk is coming soon by thinking the way things are unveiling while Miura said about last year or so, that we were at the half of the story. Since then his chapters slowed down, maybe he’s having trouble to slow the paste of the story down or maybe he changed his mind but doesn’t want to screw up any way?
February 9th, 2008 at 9:46 am
Dear “Evil Fuck”:
“When has a creator of any work never given a time, date, or even a simple area of time when a certain work will be released? Miura has always had a release date before and now it comes to such a shock that he randomly decides to not have one now.”
With this simple two sentences shows two things: first you don’t know shit about how Miura works and second you don’t follow berserk so often. If anything you preached about was really true, then you would know this wasn’t the first time fans had to wait for a berserk chapter and/or that there’s wasn’t a ETA announced. Hence “bullshit”.
“You act as though we are all below Miura on some grand scale. Like he is some sort of higher being that may not be questioned by ones such as we. Sure I adore the work he has created, but he is still a human being who can be judged and criticized.”
We can create an opinion about his work, yes. Saying we like (or dislike) this or that, but generally it is something we get to form (an opinion that is) since the beginning. Now criticized his way of work, something we does since 1988, with a good amount of success, because he, once again didn’t leave a date of release to the fans (and why should he be obligated to do that anyway?), in the place where many religiously follow the man’s work, it’s call being arrogant and rude. You’re a mere fan. You aren’t entitled to any right over Miura, or Miura’s work or any of EG team effort to provide the community with his work. So no, you don’t have any moral or ethical grounds to criticize something you know little of. What is your expertize on the subject? Do we care? Does Miura care?
“I have sat here and taken in all of your opinions, but I just dont see how anything you just said makes any sense…..I stated an opinion, I got criticized, I explaine my opinion, and then thats it. Rudeness is rudeness and you are simply ignorant.”
Another way to show you lack common sense lies in this sentence. You want, by force, that we accept your “opinion” of criticizing Miura M.O., but you don’t like to be criticized openly by your statement, nameing those who do that of “rude” and “ignorant”. So who’s being ignorant? Who’s being rude? We listen and accept your opinion, as well we are entitled to respond to it, as we see fit, specially if we disagree with some or all of if. You either accept it or you can leave, because you clearly aren’t cut for this place.
““evil fuck behavior” is nonsense unless youc an explain to me what exactly is good and evil. Come talk to me again when you go back to school.”
This is so wrong in so many ways, for some who wants to make us believe is well educated and finished kindergarten. I’m educated enough to explain to you what is exactly Good and Evil, by context and by region. But i doubt it you will understand, because there is one requirement: use a good deal of your brain.
Take this word of advice (or don’t, but i won’t take responsibilities): Be sure to engage your brain before you use your mouth. In this case, because you might not understand, your great writing skills (mine aren’t to shabby either).

For any who might wonder were did Eldo get the info, here’s the link:
http://www.younganimal.com/cgi-bin/url/url.cgi?left=menu.html&right=yokoku/new.html
As you can see, there’s no cover (at the time I’m writing) for that issue of the magazine, but berserk is in the line-up, with DMC per example.
February 9th, 2008 at 11:29 am
“well i’m not going to continue to try an elaborate on my ideas with those who would poke fun and talk trash over the internet about such a small thing. i expected alot better.”
Well, after that statement I thought he would just shut up but here we are now! The stupidity continues – YAYS!
Dear Rudy (BlackAxez is to long, so you are from now on Rudy)
Please accept my opinion: You are a retard looking for competition. If I would be mean I would ask you to die in a fire, but that would be rude…
The funny thing will be that the rude behaviour against you will not stop you to leech the next chapter. Sounds weird? But its true, isnt it, Rudy?
So why argue with the staff? The rudimental thought behind your (rude) behaviour might be boredom. A common (and rude) theory is virtual penis enlargement. You are a (rude) male, arent you, Rudy? Try to think about what you are doing here – its absurd… and rude!
Dear Rudy, stop being rude! Please…
Oh, and thanks for the info, Eldo! Im looking forward to it
February 9th, 2008 at 11:38 am
I don’t mean to change the topic or offend anyone, and seeing as how there are some hostilities underway here I don’t seek to add to any of that, but would anyone on these boards, or anyone amongst the EG staff know if anyone is doing scanlations for “Holyland” from the Young Animal releases?
February 9th, 2008 at 11:42 am
Hi Shakes
I found this: http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=1629
Hope that helps.
February 9th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
Actually, I have done as I had said I would do. I have stopped trying to defend myself to you and now I have done nothing but pick at your comments just as you had done to me.
So, Death&Rebirth, I still couldn’t quite grasp what you were saying seeing as how it was totally irrelevant and well, crap. But I think if you read between the lines, i can understand that basically, your family was a bunch of clowns who taught you, well, jack shit. And when I say jack shit I am of course meaning, you are quite….Dumb. However nice use of picking at certain points in my comment and using quotes at the beginning and ending of each statement. that was very 3rd gradish. good job = ) You are getting better.
And Thana, your name is too flamboyant and sounds like you have a lisp when you say it, so from now on I will call you cum-spounge. Don’t you think it will be fitting ^___^ ??
So cum-spounge, all I really have to say about your comment is, “no one likes a ball washer.” ^_-
And don’t worry, I don’t plan to read the comments after this just so that no matter how much you write I will never read it and I will never be offended. Because, well, I’m kind of tired talking to to degenerates. But I will leave this comment to leave my advice to you, maybe let you think it over while you wash death&rebirth’s balls.
February 9th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
Well moral of the day: “Don’t feed the trolls, specially those who fantasize about me receiving a long ball-wash from another person (which quite frankly i don’t know who he/she is)”
Take care.
P.S.: I don’t know if i should feel flattered to be someone’s inner fantasy, so educated and with such wide intellect like yourself. I might consider a serious relationship, if you are a girl, in your twenties and of japanese origins. A/S/L?
February 9th, 2008 at 3:02 pm
Blackaxez is right. take a ballwash. brush ur teeth. Death&Rebirth can suck a railroad spike. lick down the wang now. take the sausage that u have shoved up ur ass and suck it too. miura isn’t being rational. and let me reiterate, suck a railroad spike. a huge one.
February 9th, 2008 at 3:23 pm
Now looky who is getting rude here
Its so easy to outsmart the vindicators of the holy internet and transmute them into the evil victims they felt offended of some posts before – I love it <3
Waiting for more rudimental rudeness from Rudy…
February 9th, 2008 at 3:43 pm
Do evi_genius need editors for zetman?
February 9th, 2008 at 4:40 pm
You all could always read Battle Angel Alita and it’s sequal, Battle Angel Alita: Last Order in the meantime.
February 9th, 2008 at 5:32 pm
There’s already a good scanlation out for both BAA and Last Order. There’s a thread in the Manga discussion with links for it.
And shame on you D&R.B, why are you even taking the time to bother? We really don’t need to point out what has become blatantly clear at this point, especially when being trolled.
February 9th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
What’s with people with black in their nicks going berserk nowadays. Must be something they “(h)ate”…
*shrughs*
@prince: dude, I have nothing to be ashamed of, but if i have to blame someone i think i must have blame the unprofessional Miura for not given ETA for the next chapter.
Anyway I’m cool with it. It’s not like my life depends of some morons opinions or anything for that matter.
Let them take their frustrations out. It’s preferable this than to see them turning all emo and chant tokyo hotel songs on and on. Now that’s freaking scary shit…
February 9th, 2008 at 10:17 pm
Hey Blackaxez, thanks for bringing so much enjoyment by making a huge fool out of yourself. psi was going to ban you, but I told him not to, because you provide me with some degree of entertainment. And you’re going to stop posting now, despite your unofficial role of being this website’s spitbucket? How unprofessional of you. Welcome to the internet, where your opinions don’t matter. I also think it’s unprofessional of crack whores when having sex, they don’t look like they’re enjoying it. That’s incredibly unprofessional of them. Where is my 5 dollars an hour going to?
Can black dahlia fit Blackaxez shoes? It seems he/she could. Also, the English literacy police are after you for butchering the English language. What you did was murder.
Zetman Jin, we do not need editors for Zetman, thanks for offering to help.
February 9th, 2008 at 10:23 pm
I agree with black dhalia and axe. totally rude.
thanks again EG for all the hard work = )
February 9th, 2008 at 11:05 pm
Thanks much Thana!
February 9th, 2008 at 11:49 pm
*D&RB: My bad, my post definitely didn’t come off as how I intended. Just felt you were giving certain people waaay too much credit, while trying to deconstruct something that was already a pile of rubble to begin with.
-Eldo, your words have a poetic quality to them. Its as if you made flamage over the internet into an artform.
-Blackaxss: Its good to see that you agree with yourself, that’s quite a statement.
February 10th, 2008 at 5:15 pm
Hey ELdo, can you upp the raw of Zetman volume 8?
February 10th, 2008 at 5:36 pm
Zetman Jin, to answer your question, no. I don’t see the point of uploading 154 megs of unoptimised image files which would take me around over 2 hours to upload. It’s primarily for our own use anyway. I don’t think I gave credit enough to uncempt and miyagiCE. Many thanks to uncempt who purchased Zetman volume 8 in Japan, and miyagiCE for scanning each page, which proved to be a dubious task. In fact, special mentions would be made about their work in the next blog entry. I forgot about it and went for the short version and the little crap joke.
February 10th, 2008 at 7:48 pm
dont sell yourself short, it was an awesome crap joke.
February 11th, 2008 at 9:36 am
Yup, someone actually fell for it
February 11th, 2008 at 4:11 pm
The prince, just stop adding to the fire. Why are people making a big deal about what axe had to say? who cares? you all should have just let it go instead of turning it into chaos. He made you all look like fools so shut it.
February 11th, 2008 at 6:31 pm
Hello people…
I need to find the first chapters of Zetman => V01ch01-05. The links on toriyama’s world doesn’t work anymore!
Thanks a lot for the info and for the job here ^_^
February 11th, 2008 at 8:59 pm
The King, oh yeah, you’re right, he made us all look like fools, so…wait, what? Uh, how? You came over to EG just to tell people to shut up? What are you, his father? Sorry, but the only person who can tell anyone to shut up is well, psi and myself, and other group members. So, thank you for your unheeded input on a topic that has settled two days ago, random poster on the Internet. Talk about adding to the fire on a settled topic, pretty ironic, don’t you think?
Aegir, we did not work on the first couple of chapters of Zetman, but unfortunately for you, I can’t give any links in the fear they might be shut down by THE MAN. Here’s a tip: try Google, or IRC.
February 12th, 2008 at 5:13 pm
Thanks EG, I actually don’t read other releases but berserk, now I will since I finished fairy tale, Thanks for the aWesome work. I can’t believe some ppl didn’t get the joke about the 100 copies, I’m over reading the posts and I’ve seen someones very funny.
Hope you can get over your diferences.
Best of Luck.
An Argentinian with bad English.
February 12th, 2008 at 9:38 pm
Good deal. Thank you EG for the chapters.
February 13th, 2008 at 11:19 pm
Shit I just heard that the new Berserk chapters will be out on Feb. 22. I hope it ain’t bullshit man.
February 14th, 2008 at 3:06 pm

:D:D
February 14th, 2008 at 8:42 pm

February 15th, 2008 at 4:39 pm
While doing that… I have some suggestions about the plot. Hammer them into him, would you? <3
February 16th, 2008 at 4:14 pm
my birthday is on 22 of febrero so thnx miura to this gift, i hope, and you guys need to start buyn the berserk volumes in your local store so miura feel motivated and finish the dam story, i cant wait any longer
February 17th, 2008 at 9:50 pm
The Edit part made me laugh.
‘Nigerian princess’ LOL
Keep the good work, can’t wait for Berserk. ^^
February 18th, 2008 at 3:42 pm
say, why there’s no ‘forever’ option in the poll? pretty much more damn plausible
February 18th, 2008 at 10:30 pm
Hmmm…’forever’…..as in this Friday?
February 19th, 2008 at 3:12 am
Hehe, nice poll there E.G. seems like a one-thousend people
are highly pesimistic.
February 19th, 2008 at 9:26 am
Remenber:
Berserk chapter is released in Japan this friday the 22nd, so you’ll have to wait until eldo and the guys get a decent raw, clean and translate.
I hope no one is to jumpy and starts hammering the guys with “Why?” and “When?” on this day…
February 19th, 2008 at 12:53 pm
“I hope no one is to jumpy and starts hammering the guys with “Why?” and “When?” on this day…”
Gnaaa… Do you really expect all people to be that smart? Remember: People like BlackAccess aka Rudy are looking at this site. My hope is that these guys go for the fast but crappy scanlation of Frankyhouse…
February 20th, 2008 at 3:08 am
The part of people “hammering” is now part of the cycle -_-
If I was to be rude, I’ll just hammer these guys into “you make me not want to check the posts and give up on trying to type stuff with another guy who’s got fluffy crazy supositions on the Berserk plot”
Phew I feel better now
February 20th, 2008 at 5:26 am
@DeMs
Don’t mention fluffy crazy suppositions. It brings back to memory the set of images of Berserk plushies…
*shivers*
February 20th, 2008 at 6:57 am
Berserk 293 preview out on younganimal ^^
February 21st, 2008 at 3:01 am
@Death&Rebirth
I rather speak of evil fake tender bunnies trying hard to take over Femto’s plans to have his kingdom that will make a partial alliance with Gatsu than tickling my mind with theories even less likely to happen than evil bunnies about Miura’s lifespan that seems mysteriously short (because so many are hooked to his Berserk project ^^) and that he died because he tripped on his photo cam and landed as a faceplant on a pencil that just went through his eye and brain, not to count the cranium that just cracked on the brutal landing >:)
THAT would make me shiver
February 21st, 2008 at 6:17 am
No contest
You win
