![]() Two best friends who have been writing Manga together since they were students, Kouji Mori and Kentaro Miura are known for their dark fantasy manga series. And with Miura’s closest allies and supporters at the helm of this unique continuation, there’s a good chance that the world will see the horrific and splendid world that Miura wished to share.This Kentaro Miura Memorial Manga – One-Shot by Kouji Mori has a whole story behind it. ![]() While his legacy already includes the super grim and mega-popular Dark Souls video game series, which drew heavily from his horrific visual aesthetic, and his unflinchingly violent tone has paved the way for more mature manga like Chainsaw Manand Attack on Titanto break through into the mainstream, no work has yet emerged that matches Berserk’s hard-earned moniker as the world’s strongest fantasy. Miura was a once-in-a-generation voice who showed us how to find grace and meaning in the face of unspeakable horrors. It’s hard to understate how incredible this whole return to serialization is. Miura envisioned to everyone as faithfully as possible. We believe that this policy, although imperfect, is the best way to deliver the Berserk that Mr. We would like to take the “Kentaro Miura” that we knew so fondly through our conversations and work and convey this to all of you in a sincere manner. However, we will write the manga so as not to deviate from Mr. Since he did not leave behind rough drafts, it is impossible for us to create a manuscript exactly in the way he would have intended. He wondered, would everyone be surprised if I drew something like this? How about a character like this? Would this storyline be interesting? The talks were not meant as his last words, but were a part of his ordinary days as a manga artist… He also had similar talks with his studio staff and editor. “Before his passing, Kentaro Miura spoke to his close friend Kouji Mori about the stories and episodes he had in mind for Berserk. You can read Young Animal and Mori’s full statements here, but here’s a few key excerpts from the editorial staff there: Ultimately, we’ll have a better idea once the story starts back up in the next issue of Young Animal and as the series (hopefully) moves toward its final destination. Kouji very explicitly pledged to only produce moments that Miura described to him, vowing not to include any creative flourishes or half-remembered plot lines. Studio Gaga already illustrated a series Miura wrote on the side, so the art will be top-notch, but it’s the quality of the storytelling that remains to be seen. There is no doubt that the new chapters will be very much in the spirit of Miura’s life’s work, but it’s hard to know if they will feel like Berserk. So it was especially tragic that Miura’s final chapter ended with an explosive development that suggested an end in sight after so many years of staggering genius and spinning wheels. Even before its sudden conclusion, fans were eager to see the story wrap up as the releases became fewer and farther between over the years and the story seemed to be veering further and further off-track. This is welcome news for fans who invested decades into following Guts’s quest for vengeance and Griffith’s increasingly demonic exploits.
