Berserk Volume 2

Peak story, made me cry. GRIFFITHHHHHHHHHHH

Arrived quickly and in good condition.

The Slug Count is like a combo of Shrek and a Broodmother from Dragon Age, a perfectly grotesque eldritch monster.

Its Just brutal. Guts goes full psycho in this one. Puck is a sweety and I am hungry for more.

Excellent comic series, books are perfectly readable. Only issue is that many of the pages are cut a bit poorly so that some of another print shows. This doesn't impact reading or enjoyment at all but if its for a collection then keep this in mind.

The only problem I've yet to have with Berserk is how fast they are as a read. I finished volume two in less than a hour. Though I will admit that the manga had me hooked, it wasn't just that that made this manga seem so short despite being over two-hundred pages. A lot of what happens in this manga is presented in imagery, and not in character dialogue. In fact, contrary to today's manga, where everything is over-explained, the Berserk manga under-explains. It lets its action speak for itself. I don't consider this a bad thing, though; it just sucks closing the book for the last time.In this volume, the battle with the Count continues from the first volume. Helping Guts is a strange man named Vargas, who wants nothing more than to see the count dead, yet is incapable of doing anything himself, as well as Puck, the little elf that constantly annoys/helps Guts throughout the manga. This volume also teaches us a little bit more about the brand on Guts's neck, as well as showing Guts rare, emotional side. And of course, it has heaps of violence, blood, and gore, along with a smidgen of comedy interlaced during some lighter moments.Though I felt the volume short, it still gets a five from me, and easily so. Berserk continues to get better, especially since I started my little trip through the world of Guts and his many demon enemies through the anime series. It's great getting to know his deeper history, as well as seeing Guts at his worst moments. If you've already started collecting the series, then you obviously shouldn't miss this. And if you've only seen the anime series, then buy this along with volume one and start collecting the series. Just note that the gore in this manga is graphic, and has a few scenes of nudity, which is often followed by some pretty disturbing imagery. I'd recommend following the book's instructions; if you consider yourself a mature reader, then get this.

nice read

Each volume it gets better and better. i was thoroughly happy with the illustration and writing. I ordered a used copy and it was in very good condition. It saved me a few bucks and I saved a tree lol
