Yes, there is an anime series. 25 episodes. Required watching for every anime fan.

In japan they are already several chapters into volume 27. Berserk is released bi-monthly in chapters in Young Animal Magazine. Every 6 months they release a volume with 10 chapters as well.

If anyone knows some group that translates it monthly, posting link would be nice. The Hawks translation is probably better though.

*EDIT : OK I got the RAWS for V26 finally and found a site with translations for all the chapters. The image quality is not too good though and I dont want to flip back and forth to read. I&#39;ve waited this long so i think Ill wait for the hawks HQ version.

Yes, but VOLUME 26 is not out yet in Japan.

The chapters that will be in volume 26 are &#39;out&#39;, however.

well I my theories on that are 3 things, <span style='color:gray'>I put them in spoiler tag for those that want to guess by themselves</span>

<span style='color:#D6DBE0'>
1)something happened to the sword after it was used to kill a dragon...

2)or the ore used to forge the sword came from the fairy mine near Gotto&#39;s home

3)or that Gatts long term exsistence within the Hazana using the sword to kill thousands of Demons and some apostles has done something to it
</span>

But I dont think his sword has any special &quot;power&quot;, my belief and hope is that it is simply near unbreakable.

[Black Knight]

its just a regular big ass sword i think. he had to go get it fixed once didnt he?

not exactly fixed, but he did have it sharpened after he had used it for 2 years. Also besides the witch, Zodd also calls it a demonic sword. That is what makes me wonder. But uhh basicall I agree it&#39;s just big ass sword.

[Legato 2057]

Serpico, your 3rd idea is the correct one. It states such in Volume 25 of the manga.

[Suzuki Fanboy]

I just read the first one because I buy the manga, not download. I&#39;ll get the second one soon though, because it kicks ass.

[Inuzuka Kiba]

Your gonna have to wait a long time if you dont download the volumes

but buying it is very good, even after you download it, you should still buy it for support of the company, as well as convinence (being able to read it away from computer)

Indeed he is right, buy Berserk and lots of Berserk merchandise. I will eventually buy the manga&#39;s but for now just the DVDs.

Oh and a little note, the company that liscened Berserk here in America about a year ago told the production company of Berserk they would also be interested in liscencing the second season if it was made. The more DVD&#39;s sold though the higher the chance of this ever happening.

what armor? is it in vol 1-25?

or is it new ? ( in vol 26 )

[Locke]

Just a few notes. The translation you have were it says demonic sword is wrong. The hawks lived up to thier name and gave a bad translation on that one. Its just a hunk of metal. But because he&#39;s used it so much against such beings, its beginning to take some ethereal properties. If Im remembering all this right...

Btw, did you guys ever see the picture of guts demonic armor yet?

That&#39;s basically what Serpico said in his third theory.

And yes, the new armor is awesome.

[Locke]

[Legato 2057]

The armor appears in Volume 26.

[L8r]

DAMN..... thats the demon armor?.....

thats fu***** great....
i think that gatts will somehow be like that dude on the hores the 1 whit the bone helm....
or atleast work whit him or something


DAMNIT DAMNIT i want vol 26

[Black Knight]

damn i knew i didnt like it when i first saw it. i just didnt remember what it looked like. gatts shouldnt be wearing a full body armor. he needs to show off his size.

btw, why is it called demonic armor? it better shoot lasers or some shit.

[Shiznit]
