Take a swing at the Dreamcast Berserk game if you get a chance. Its pretty cool.
-Dreams- said:But now I'm bummed because after 28 there are no more English books available now.
-Dreams- said:Buy the Japanese and read along with posted translations?
-Dreams- said:BTW, where do I figure out how to get the stuff from Japan. Is there an FAQ?

Contact your local Japanese Bookstore (search the yellow pages, or dial 411 if you don't know where it's located) and special order "Hakusensha's Young Animal". They'll likely have to order an annual subscription, because of the inexpensive price of individual issues (290 yen, or ~$3) but the high costs of shipping.
- Sasugabooks.com, or Amazon Japan can set you up with a mail-order subscription, and also sells the individual tankoubons (manga).
-Dreams- said:Why they stagger the releases seems gay to me. >:(
-Dreams- said:Now I'm sort of in a dilemma where I want to keep reading the story, but the English versions of Volumes 29 - 32 are coming out between May and December. Why they stagger the releases seems gay to me. >:(
Rhombaad said:Seriously, I mean why should we give them time to translate the material and print it out? Sheesh.
-Dreams- said:Couldn't they just put out all the recent volumes at once?

Th3Branded0ne said:The translators have to do one volume at a time to at least keep it concise.
-Dreams- said:I guess I will just have to be patient and savor the new English volumes as they come out. I still have like 8 back volumes to read, which should keep me busy!

oh man, I'm really happy to be a part of this community, I've been thirsting for people to talk Berserk with.
Ions said:not a unique story, I know but my god.

Ions said:I fear my posts will be few and far between since the amount of back log on here is overwhelming and I don't want to start off on the wrong foot by asking questions/posing theories that have already been touched upon.
Rhombaad said:I have to disagree, it's probably one of the most unique stories out there right now. Have you read any of the manga? The anime wasn't a very good adaptation, so you're missing out on a lot of cool (unique ) stuff if you haven't read any of the original work.
Aazealh said:I think Ions meant his own story of how he discovered Berserk. At least I hope he did, otherwise he did start off on the wrong foot!
