Berserk is one of the most popular manga and anime series primarily aimed at adults. The story of the mercenary Guts is told in the dark fantasy manga by Japanese artist Kentarō Miura. According to the author, the idea for Berserk was rather spontaneous. This is surprising for a manga like Berserk, which often features complex storylines and multifaceted characters. These aspects are especially appreciated by fans and make the protagonist Guts one of the most popular merchandise themes.
The Success Story Of Berserk
Since Guts first appeared in 1988, a total of 41 volumes have been published to date. The first issue was called Berserk: The Prototype and was a one-shot. Starting in 1989, Berserk was regularly published in a manga magazine, later released as collected volumes. Several series have been produced based on the manga. The first ran from 1997 to 1998 on the Japanese channel Nippon TV. Twenty-five episodes were produced and, due to the manga's success, were released on DVD in Germany in 2003. A new version of the series was released in 2016 and included 12 episodes. Universal Pictures was responsible for the DVD and Blu-ray release.
