The Berserk manga will continue, coming to a conclusion based on the memories shared by Kentaro Miura with his staff.
Berserk will continue: the iconic manga created by Kentaro Miura will have a conclusion based on the stories shared by the author with his friend Kouji Mori and with the staff of his studio.
“Before his death, Kentaro Miura spoke to his best friend, the mangaka Kouji Mori, about the stories and episodes he had in mind for Berserk, and he did the same with his studio staff and the editor”, reads the message released by the Young Animal editorial staff.
Miura has basically shared her creative process with her friends and collaborators, carrying on that tradition for years. We are therefore not talking about precise indications, but rather about pieces of a puzzle that Mori and the members of the Berserk studio will undertake to put together in the most faithful way possible to the original spirit of the work.
The plan is to publish the six chapters that will conclude the narrative arc of the island of the elves, starting on June 24 ; then start a new arc that will lead to the conclusion of Berserk, carrying forward the original numbering of the manga.
Kouji Mori has been a confidant of Miura since the opera’s origins, and he’s basically the only one who knows how the story should have ended. Contacted by the staff of his deceased friend, the author accepted the responsibility of leading the manga to its conclusion and to do so while remaining faithful to the ideas that were illustrated to him, without adding anything else.
