Question...I was searching for the Berserk manga on my local Amazon site, so I typed in Kentaro Miura and this came up...

Anybody ever heard of or read this? And is it me or do those two characters look like clones of Guts and Caska...

The story for Japan was by Buronson and artwork was done by Miura. I haven't read it so I wouldnt know how similar the characters are. From picture's I've seen the guy's face doesnt look that much like Gatts' but the girl does look like Caska, from that angle.

Old Miura artwork, 1 volume only, was released by manga-sketchbook so you can get it on the net. I didnt find it good.

He did King of Wolves too.

On the net too. This one was ok, but 1 volume is too short to developpe in something good.

Japan is pretty fuckin' terrible. Ourou is better, but not exactly mind-blowing.

Sooo not all that great then...If Miura is only doing half the work, it can only be half-good I guess. I've got respect for the guy so I'll check it out regardless.

I tried finding info on it myself, but obviously if you type Japan into Google a whole load of crazy shit comes up.

Cheers for the links and comments guys.

Just because Miura isn't writing it doesn't mean it's going to be horrible. IN fact I'm pretty sure King of Wolves was written by the guy who did Fist of the North Star.

You're dead right. Although I didn't expect to be taken so seriously. If I did, I'd be saying all other works apart from Miura's are rubbish. And that's bullshit.

BTW if you check the links, you'll see the author of Fist of the North Star/Japan/King of Wolves are all one and the same. I gonna check 'em out, not much to do 'til 280.

DOES FEMTO HAVE HANDS OR JUST FUCKING WINGS LIKE A KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN?!?!?!?

Post by **Istvan** » Mon Dec 11, 2006 11:41 pm

I'm pretty sure that he has hands at the ends of his wings. The wings are attached to his arms, of course, but I think that his hands come out from the end. Why?

BECOUSE HE'S THE BASTARD SON OF VOID AND SLAN!!!

Post by **EnglishJim** » Tue Dec 12, 2006 11:48 am

Femto isn't a "bastard" son, Void's always been there for him. He's a good father.

Well the one at 9 am I hope he wasn't drunk, but if he was hes dedicated to his hobbies.

Post by **Istvan** » Tue Dec 12, 2006 11:41 pm

Post by **Skullkracker** » Wed Dec 13, 2006 12:42 pm

Studying fucked my brain up and it still does!

One idiot thread maker is more then enough.

Hello! I've just registered, and hopefully I'm providing my first, introductory post in an appropriate place. I first learned of Berserk, like many, through the anime - and once I found there was more to be had in the manga, I scoured the internet. Of course, this led me to the Hawks, and when I had caught up to the newest issue, I found Evil Genius and their chapter-by-chapter releases. I own the entire 6 DVD set of the series (plus a fancy art box), and will soon be buying the Dark Horse publications. Luckily, I live in Toronto - an extremely multi-cultural city - and Chinatown here will beat even Amazon to new Berserk merchandise.

I look forward to contributing my two cents in the forums, as I sincerely think the Berserk manga is a rare example of story-telling brilliance. I also want to keep a look out for word on new Evil Genius (and Dark Horse!) releases; I'm not worried, it seems those threads are hard to miss.

Anyway, that's enough. Sorry to have threadjacked, it's not something I normally do.

Welcome!
We look forward to new members who seem normal, so feel free to contribute!

Define normal?

Post by **Gattsblackfalcon** » Fri Dec 15, 2006 6:41 pm

Yes , after that statement of "Daddy's arms reach quite far...." , I want to know how you define normal too .

Post by **Skullkracker** » Fri Dec 15, 2006 7:37 pm

I think I might be losing face here

Welcome Kshatriya I hope you havent finished reading yet or you might be in for a painful wait

To try ease the pain I suggest Naruto Manga/Anime, One Piece Manga/Anime, and Vagabond Manga all are good and have very intense moments in them that will make you well-up inside

... this should keep you busy until Berserk comes back too us

Best place to DL Manga and anime is http://www.anime-eden.com registering is free and so is the stuff
