Runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
So we get 1 more new chapter just before new years, how many does that make for 2017?

Looks like last season ended about halfway through Vritannis. If they keep up the same pace that would give them like what, another season or two before they catch up to the manga?

Starting to get that creeping excitement of a new Berserk chapter boiling up... along with the realisation that Miura's definitely going to call hiatus just before we see if Casca has changed from everything or not.

I'm mentally preparing myself for this. How could he not do that to us. I'm convinced his release schedule is some sort of meta tie-in to the hopelessness the characters feel through out the series.

Don't be surprised if the next group of chapters is back to Griffith and his dream/nightmare. The dick monsters have appeared, so it's time to go back to something else. It may even motivate the future showdown.

Going back to Falconia now would be phenominally bad pacing. I think we'll be following Caska' journey until she either awakens or a new Bad Thing happens.

At least the few visuals throughout the dream would be cool this time. And ultimately, we're going to get a return to the Eclipse from her perspective before the Hiatus hits to give the manga readers a little taste of what 1997 anime fans felt.

That's not what I expected, in any case. Something doesn't jive chronologically, but I'll wait for the translations.

Same. I went and looking thinking, "Well, maybe it's not that bad," but no - it is. Maybe I'd muddle through it for another series or at a different moment (like the boat), but not for this. :/

Thanks for the good stuff like usual E_G & LordMune


e:

Natalie.mu has an article about the latest issue of Young Animal that contains a pretty interesting tidbit: 今後は隔号で連載されていく。

What this translates to is that "from now on, Berserk will be published serially in every other issue [of Young Animal]." Obviously I think we need to be very cautious until we get direct confirmation from YA, but what this implies is a return to a regular publication for the series.

You're very welcome! Raws were late this time, but actual turnaround time on the scanlation was shorter than usual. Will probably make some minor edits to the text before the proper EG release, as per usual.

As for resuming serialization, that is pretty much what it says on the first page. Don't get your hopes up though, they've used similar language to describe Miura's six-month bursts in the past.

The first couple pages of this chapter has a really nice color image of Guts and Griffith. It has much more vibrant colors than most of Miura's color art so I'm guessing it's not from him?

Mangastream likes to insert fanart into their releases, so you're probably right.

Bless you child, that you don't know how mangastream usually operates.

And bless us all that Berserk has much better fanart than usual. I hope they put in the street fighter parody next time.
