This can only mean that you have to donate money to me, I can't live off the rest of my life with scams and the such.

Anyway, the Berserk prototype is included in the volume 14, and has not been scanlated for released by any groups. You have to BUY volume 14 if you want the prototype. Unless some kind hearted soul who owns volume 14 decides to scan it, I can see little chance of obtaining the prototype itself. Pity I only have volumes 1-10. This should answer your question, mods feel free to do what you will with this thread, and add the Q&A to the to the FAQ if needed.

You have violated some sacred laws of the FAQ by asking 'where i dl beserk'-type question. NOBODY, and I do mean, NOBODY should request where they should download or find their fix of Berserk, as a thread or question. I'm feeling a tad tired right now, so I'm not going to do shit.

Remember, donate to Eldo. It's like donating to a church and to a worthy cause. Or something. I'm still waiting for those gold bricks.

I bet most of you were disappointed with Mune's link. I know I wasn't. Instead of buying the volume, I think a better and wiser investment can be made by donating to me.

Monies plz.

You do know you can check the URL of the link by hovering your mouse over it and checking the status-window-strip-thing at the bottom of the screen... right?

Well if anyone wants to make a rar file of the prototype of berserk, I will host it via mindwerk's tracker.

Does it need translating?

I hear it's been translated on Skullknight.net

I suppose it needs editing, but I suspect we won't have to worry about that.

I went and checked vol. 14 I had.. and noticed they call the red lake the 5th sign of the apocalypse..

Berserk 'should' use 7 signs, same as current mythology (I use should very lightly..) so hope we see more of that kinda stuff

But yeah, getting the prototype thingum would be awesome.

Berserk is great because it's a completely new set of mythos. Making parallels to any real world religion and whatnot would kill the originality in the series and ruin the world Miura has created.

originality?

Ha!

He blatantly copies from european myths and legends, adds stuff from fantasy games and roleplaying crap and just shakes it up a tad, giving it the libido of a 12 year old stallion and off he goes.. well used to at least.. long time since we've seen any nekked biotzez.

I want more nekked biotzezzz!!

Well, a lot of the stuff Miura uses is really not original, but the world is, and things like the godhand, the apostles, and the combination of ideas is that makes Miura's work original.

And Tolkien was probably the first to write a fantasy novel like that, I don't think anyone ever thought about orcs and elves in quite the same way before that.

perhaps not in that way but the stories about orcs trolls and the like are far and far older. I think the only things he created were the ballrog and the ents...

On one hand, there is practically no innovation in literature today. EVERYTHING has been used before. Bah, Berserk is original, as everything is relative.

I was referring to religious hierarchies exclusively, but you obviously missed that point.
