Hey guys, me again. I bring the goods. Our man and long-time Berserk reader Hieronymus saw the exclusive preview of our release and felt inspired. So he painted this awesome piece of fanart and uploaded it to his DA account. Props to him. Be sure to leave a comment on his site.

Pure awesomeness.
Hieronymus Bosch had one fucked up mind. Can’t believe he was so appreciated at the Spanish court and this was in the 15th century!
June 25th, 2009 at 7:16 am
25th of september WTF……
June 25th, 2009 at 7:27 am
Thank you for Watanabe!!!
June 25th, 2009 at 7:29 am
nice chapter. september 25th, miura let us down again…. I had a bad feeling this morning.
most frustrating author EVER !!
June 25th, 2009 at 7:51 am
At least we have a date. Got the impression we just passed to a new arc in the page with the dragons
June 25th, 2009 at 8:39 am
sweet another chapter. i think that artist is taking credit for that work because that painting is old very old. i dont remember what artist actualy painted that but i know it cant be that guy. i rember seeing it in a text book once. stuff like that happens on da all the time its actualy real sad what people will do to get attention
June 25th, 2009 at 8:55 am
2 kneejerk reactions to sep 25 so far. you think there’s a pixie whispering in muira’s ear telling him what to draw?
he needs time to research and then fashion the story. this ain’t shonen jump.
June 25th, 2009 at 8:56 am
At least we know when it will return – much better that the occasional “The artist is taking an extended break, see you some time in the next year”.
June 25th, 2009 at 9:46 am
@6; It’s a joke.
The original Miura references, The Garden of Earthly Delights, is a triptych by 15th century dutch painter Hieronymus Bosch.
June 25th, 2009 at 9:52 am
Lies! Miura had it first!
June 25th, 2009 at 9:59 am
thanks for berserk, angel heart and watanabe. feels like a farewell-gift bevor i go on vacation in 2 days
June 25th, 2009 at 11:31 am
Three months… ah well, at least we know a chapter was coming. 5 chapters in 2 months was very nice, though.
av said: “he needs time to research and then fashion the story. this ain’t shonen jump.”
Yeah, but plenty of other seinen writers keep on a much more rigorous work schedule than Miura. :-/
June 25th, 2009 at 11:46 am
This is the best chapter I has readed, from so long. Like Fri Radikal sayed – Pure awesomeness – you get this words, йуст from my mouth
. I think BERSERK, will gonna continue even better after this chapter and that will be one crazy fantazy world. BERSERK is the BEST.
P.S. 25 september – O come on, I can’t wait so long. I want that manga finish when I’m about 100 year old. I really hope so. But really, it take’s very much time to draw and create this awesome pictures
June 25th, 2009 at 1:05 pm
Thanks for Berserk and Biomega. Great work as always!
June 25th, 2009 at 1:25 pm
Thank you as always
June 25th, 2009 at 2:13 pm
Whoo, awesome!
June 25th, 2009 at 2:21 pm
Holy awesomeness. The whole world is going to shit, I don’t see any good beings coming from the shift.
June 25th, 2009 at 2:50 pm
Erm, what about the unicorns? and that fairy? (though it’s weird considering puk and evarela already existed)
June 25th, 2009 at 3:55 pm
LOL at the surprised Demon faces! “WTF this wasn’t part of the deal!” :-p
June 25th, 2009 at 4:04 pm
Nydhogg: I suppose they will be quickly eaten by other creatures.
Btw. thanks EG for this release.
June 25th, 2009 at 6:23 pm
surely nice surprise that the new (Angel Heart) release came so soon after the last one.
June 25th, 2009 at 7:04 pm
Nydhogg, no good creatures that can put up a fight. Everything is just meat for the evil. Unless the unicorns start throwing lightning bolts from their horns…
June 25th, 2009 at 7:17 pm
Sept 25th? Son of a bitch! arghhhh
June 25th, 2009 at 7:31 pm
Oh and I thought this light would be happy fun time with griffith for everyone…
Thanks a lot for another absolutely magnificient berserk chapter!
June 25th, 2009 at 9:23 pm
Hahaa… nice joke up there in the post. I was like, “This picture seems familiar.” And yet I still clicked that link… sigh…
June 26th, 2009 at 12:21 am
Don’t underestimate those horns… ever! Besides, you’re judging all those creatures based on their looks… and what we see now is appostles teaming up with humans… the presence of these new creatures with no reason, only instint, can give them a purpose, people will not see apostles as the monsters, but as their allies, because there is still an enemy in this new world myura is presenting us to. If Ganishka was defeated and there was nothing else, it wouldn’t take long before humans saw them as a dangerous predator, this way they’ll seek them for protection.
June 26th, 2009 at 12:26 am
I like that, the second page in berserk on bottom left reads “…Any similarities to real-life people and events is purely coincidental.”
June 26th, 2009 at 12:56 am
I was about to go ape sh^t when you said someone did that as fan art. I was gonna going to put that guy on front UNTIL I READ the name again and caught the joke. I could only laugh at myself for not catching that at first. (Was an art major in el college…so I kinda remembered the “garden earthly delights” haha)
June 26th, 2009 at 4:28 am
You forgot to release the NARUTO chapter, Miyagi!
June 26th, 2009 at 10:59 am
InterRage: Yeah, I’m glad they had that disclaimer, I was pretty sure the whole series was just another thinly-veiled critique of the Bush administration. (lol)
June 26th, 2009 at 3:45 pm
thank you eg
this chapter made my brain come out my mouth. thats how it made me feel.
June 26th, 2009 at 3:47 pm
berserk is better than a lot of psychedelics.
June 26th, 2009 at 8:37 pm
..Wow, I almost thought I was on drugs reading that chapter.
I realize it was just the chapter and not me though.
Anyways being more serious…. two months to go..
June 26th, 2009 at 10:51 pm
Did I just see a dragon?
Can’t wait for September 25.
June 27th, 2009 at 7:09 am
I like those small trolls on page08-09 in the high panel cleaning the house
June 27th, 2009 at 3:07 pm
gods gods gods!!!!
June 28th, 2009 at 10:36 am
Thanks for the release… wow what a crappy chapter. The storyline is just getting more and more idiotic with each release. I think Miura is fucking with fans to see how f’ed up he can make things before someone actually says something bad.
June 29th, 2009 at 3:06 am
Well good luck with that whole getting revenge thing Guts…
June 29th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
OMG 25 of September .My summer vacation will be over until then and it just started today .
June 30th, 2009 at 12:38 am
@18 – Yes there were already fantasy creatures in the world but humans could not see them for the most part.
still, to me it sounds like the artist is running out of ideas although i’m still interested to see what happens to Gutz on elven island – whether or not he can get rid of the brand and if Caska can come to sanity again. Also, I wonder what kind of monster her baby will be…
June 30th, 2009 at 2:42 am
Omg…. what a painting… oh and berserk mmm mm good
June 30th, 2009 at 2:49 pm
Did Guts’ arm just grow back? o_O
July 1st, 2009 at 5:30 am
Thanks for the berserk chapter =)
July 1st, 2009 at 8:08 am
Thanks for the Berserk. The artwork in this one was especially wonderful. September isn’t that far off…
July 1st, 2009 at 11:20 am
Bobtx, I have to disagree. Berserk is a lot dangerous with psychdelics
I mean, Core is totally right(or high lol), pages 18-19 is a fuckin acid trip!!!
I don’t think one could keep his sanity reading berserk and drunk some mushroom tea…
July 1st, 2009 at 11:41 am
This Garden of Earthly Delights is awesome, When the triptych’s wings are closed, the design of the outer panels becomes visible and you can see the Creation of the world

Keep the drug based ideals out please. believe it or not but there are indeed minds in this spectrum that don’t need your neo-hippy mind altering (and often dibilitating) drugs to apprecite the abstract and distorted. The mind is a raging sea of turbulant visions, askew images, and emotional tinged idealisms. Open your mind by yourself and not with mind threatening drugs. Miura is trying to show that with awareness and a cloud-free subconcious we can see more than we are taught to.
July 1st, 2009 at 8:49 pm
Wow, what a fight in biomega! Great things going on, makes me feel curious about how will it be and how will be a possible connection with BLAME!.
July 4th, 2009 at 5:17 am
@ Distorted Realms
Your comment is indeed bias my friend, a lot of artist have used artificially induced illusions(or other effects) to stimulate their creativity. Although in japan most illicit drugs we know of are illegal, “magic” mushrooms are not. I bet you Miura tried it in his younger years.
So should we say japan is “neo-hippy” nation for allowing people to use this “drug”? I think not. The mind, despite your very “humanly” perception it, is not as you describe. It’s by the most sophisticated piece of technology ,if i may call it that, that has ever existed in human existence.
To try to sum it up, as if you truly fathom it’s complexity, is nothing less then absurd.
So please refrain from being rude when you yourself made such a statement and could potential be subject to ridicule.
July 7th, 2009 at 5:58 pm
note: some of those “drug-free-creative-minds” are having serious mental diseases (it is assumed e.g. that Bosch was crazy – in medical sense
)
and THANKS for another awesome chapter
July 9th, 2009 at 12:52 am
Damn, Biomega continues to blow my mind.
July 9th, 2009 at 3:42 pm
Remember, remember, the 25th of september
When our next Berserk chapter will come.
I’ll dearly remember the 25th of september
When our next Berserk chapter will come.
Uhg. >_>
July 14th, 2009 at 10:42 am
Drug free creative minds? yeah.. and trolls are cleaning my room too.
July 15th, 2009 at 2:59 am
To Distorted Realms,
Yeah…it’s called being crazy.
July 15th, 2009 at 4:41 am
rofl … an “fanart” from Hieronymus Bosch …
nice try
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hieronymus_Bosch
July 17th, 2009 at 1:15 am
Damn this is getting weirder than Evangelion. Hell, a lot weirder. Miura needs to lay off the salvia
July 18th, 2009 at 9:37 am
I’ve been savin’ berserk chapters for like a year now, and since then only 7 or 8 were released.. it’s frustating..
July 29th, 2009 at 4:20 am
25 September, cant wait T.T
July 31st, 2009 at 5:45 am
I hope some one try to make film at berserk

August 6th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
“Damn this is getting weirder than Evangelion. Hell, a lot weirder. Miura needs to lay off the salvia”
said everything..
MWAAHAHAHAH
berserk in losing itself in it´s own madness
hope miura can give a direction, ´cause it´s a mess already…
August 21st, 2009 at 5:54 am
“Tree-Man” – part of The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch , ok this is sick and i love it ?
What will Kentaro Miura make new for us , too long i didnt see Guts in adventure…
August 26th, 2009 at 6:57 pm
Calma ai pessoal, vcs são muito ansiosos, deixa o cara desenhar direito, nao a toa que e uma das obras de arte do sec 21 e paciencia e uma virtude que o Miura tem de sobra
Que chegue logo 25 de setembro
September 4th, 2009 at 4:26 am
I lost track of time.. it’s September already ?

September 4th, 2009 at 8:28 pm
Oh Miayice, your sooo /b/.
September 6th, 2009 at 10:37 pm
It was cool to see Ubik and Conrad doing their own thing for once! Just hanging out in their personal sanctuaries though, but still cool.
September 10th, 2009 at 12:53 am
I sent Miura a case of red bull and some 3-d glasses… That aught to speed things up.
September 18th, 2009 at 2:54 am
oh no, berserk has just become lord of the rings! seriously, this is sooo not cool.
September 21st, 2009 at 8:12 am
Nice !!
Thanks for the Biomega chapter !!
September 25th, 2009 at 6:28 am
