I think B&N has a general policy against stocking anything with a "mature" rating.

I found berserk in a books a million near me but it wasnt in the manga section just in the romance novel section weird

That's... really surprising. I'm trying to picture this series as a romance story... and failing miserably. I just can't see it, no matter how hard I try.

Oh, come on its more than obvious. It definitely belongs in the romance and comedy sections... and also near the religious books, probably side by side with the bible, and stuff.

I think it's like Romeo and Juliet, passion love, boiling over kept at a distance by unbreachable barriers. Guts Griffith, Griffith Caska, Caska Guts, Pucks Guts, The two fairies, The little witch and the Black beast, the wild orgy involving idea in the maelstrom of love.... yum yum

Not the most romantic thing. in my opinion anyway.

You interpreted it as rape? I thought it was quite obviously consensual, but guts couldn't handle the possibility. So she's been faking it ever since ( note: Don't try most of the things in berserk or you'll be a real monster, and probably be gang rped in jail if not the death penalty.)

Ok, put this in stupid theories tread before someone takes that shit seriously.

Seconded. At the very least, add a (sarcasm) to the end of it. No matter how obvious it seems that it's sarcasm, there probably are people who'd take it seriously without such a warning label.

dude casca was totally liking that shit...I bet Griffith's penis was barbed

I bet Griffith's penis was barbed

Entirely possible, and I wouldn't be at all surprised, but not even Miura draws that much detail into his rape scenes, so there's no way to know.

Ribbed for her pleasure?

Well, you could certainly market some of the most bizarre condoms imagineable based on Berserk.

Its also possible that Ubik and Conrad are so fat that they can't even
see their penis'. So they have to change their shapes to to beat there
meat
