Berserk
Berserk is widely regarded as one of the all-time best seinen manga series. For over three decades, readers have been captivated by its dark and gritty story, complex characters, and stunning artwork. Guts, a skilled warrior with a tragic past, navigates a brutal and unforgiving world filled with demons, political intrigue, and personal vendettas in the story. Along the way, he develops a friendship with Griffith, the charismatic and enigmatic leader of the mercenary band known as the Band of the Hawk.
Berserk's uncompromising approach to storytelling distinguishes it from other manga. The series does not shy away from violence, gore, or mature themes, and it delves into complex philosophical concepts like fate, free will, and the human condition. Berserk is well-known for its incredible artwork, in addition to its compelling story. The detailed and intricate illustrations by creator Kentaro Miura bring the world of Berserk to life, and his use of light and shadow creates a haunting atmosphere that perfectly matches the mood of the story.
