First 4 Figures has an early prototype of Guts. They did a fantastic job on the Artiorias figure I purchased from them.

Hopefully they also do on of him in full berserker mode.

Here's the quality of the Artorias figure.

And thank you for putting this on my radar. I've been wanting a Guts figure but haven't been totally pleased with any of them (except the unlicensed InFlames version that was never made). This one is looking very promising though, and I'm really digging the Artorias figure you posted.

Now what's the next step in your master plan?
Miura has basically settled into a consistent schedule so far with about 6 months off and then 6 months or so of new releases, so at least half the year we're getting new Berserk. That's better than you can say about HxH or something like Game of Thrones.

The only way to get new HxH currently is to medically induce amnesia and read it all over again.

Crunchyroll's Interview with Dark Horse's Michael Gombos on Berserk

Since the additional Berserk series and video games have released in the last few months, have you seen an uptick in manga sales?

Absolutely. And, actually, it has recently dethroned Lone Wolf & Cub as DH’s best-selling title (not just among manga, but across all titles and volumes), and in terms of units sold commercially—that is, via “normal” channels, not a special bulk pack-in ordered by a specific client—it is our historical bestseller.

So does this mean they're going to restock the hard to find ones so I can buy one a month...or two reliably?

Didn't they do that a while ago? There was a period where most of the posts on the Berserk subreddit were of people finishing their collections after DH released a reprint of the volumes. The ones with the new binder.

I guess I should get on that then. I want to reread Berserk...legally this time.

I believe many of those are now hard to find or sold out already.

A bit OT but as I was checking for the new chapter, I noticed Black Lagoon has also come off hiatus. What is this world coming to?

We just need to sacrifice our loved ones that Netflix can somehow get the rights to Berserk and produce a faithful high quality adaptation. At this point there is enough material for several seasons and the manga is finally hitting some milestones people have been waiting for over a decade for so people wouldn't be left hanging either. Well they would be but it would take a while.

I'll sacrifice Gaf if I have to >_> There's plenty of material to churn through especially if they went for a shorter structure i.e. OVAs.

Can you imagine? 2 animations of Berserk running at the same time the current derpy one and a glorious well produced one? I don't think Miura will license his IP when someone is already animating it (if you can call animating it of course)

Sacrificing GAF will only net you this apostle form

What I would give for a Madhouse animated Berserk with Hirasawa back on the soundtrack.

Wake up, check online for new chapter. Wait 10 minutes. Go back to check for new chapter. Repeat ad nauseam all day.
I was in Japan recently and had a read of last month's chapter in Young Animal. Wanted to buy it for the bigger arts but couldn't actually bring myself to take a copy of the mag to the counter. I'm apparently too British to buy what looks like softcore porn in a shop.
