The Berserk graphic novels have been top sellers in there catergory for every month that they come out here in the U.S.
From my own personal views every time I go throught the local Manga sections to see whats out, the Berserk section is never stocked. Now I know that sounds bad, but it isn't. My reason is that, I know from working at a bookstore that when a book, particulalrly one with many volumes, like Berserk, has multiple releases in a year the store isn't going to order older copies for the sake of having the entire series available on the shelf, but would be more prone to order several copies of the more recent and new releases of that series.
Back to my main point, because I never see it at all on the shelves except for maybe one stray volume surrounded by FULLY STOCKED series like Bleach and Naruto and the other multiple titles (talking full set volumes 1-current) means that people are picking up the later releases, Frequently. I think that is awesome, because that means new berserk fans are reading this stuff everyday, more then the other titles available. And if they didn't already have the older volumes they will seek them out, or they are the blood thirsty crazy fans like me who can't wait for the next volume to come out!
At least I think so, considering how many people I have turned onto Berserk in the last three years!
