Yeah, Amazon fucked us this time, I got a similar email a while ago where they were even less sure about when they'd get it to me, and even asked if I was still interested in getting it! What? I don't care if it was for my convenience, it's like they were trying to get out of it, "Uh, you sure you even still want this, bro?"
URRRRGH!
URRRRGH!
DEMONIC RELEASE!

praise be to grail!
Yeah, I always get my Berserks from my local comic shop. They always, always get 'em right on time!

I ain't mad at it!
I pre ordered mine from Chapters.ca and so far my vol 34 hasn't shipped yet. Not contact saying it will be late/delayed etc, so, here's hoping they can get them quicker than Amazon! 
Amazon emailed me last night telling me they shipped mine.

even the horses are cut in half!
Like Gobi I only get my volume from my comic book store (except the first 3 ones when I learned it was a manga and not just an anime)
Why don't you guys just order it from tfaw.com
That's where I've gotten all 33 volumes from (need some extra cash before I get 34). They've been pretty quick with the deliveries too.

Sorry, for offtop, but where do you, guys, who lives in Europe take your DH volumes? Is there any cheap European e-shop?

In the UK we have amazon.co.uk (obviously) as well as bookdepository.co.uk
There are others, but those 2 are generally the cheapest and most reliable (from my experience).
Thanks, man, I'll try that. Though, I wonder about the delivery price, I hope it'll be cheaper to order from this stores than from the States.F611 said:

www.bookdepository.co.uk say that they have free international shipping. You can also browse the prices in different currencies (top-right drop down box), so it would be easier to work out the cost before checkout. You can also use paypal, if that makes it easier.
Berserk isn't advertised very well in the UK. Some sites only have a few volumes of Berserk.
Search results for 'berserk' on some of the UK's biggest book retailers:
BookDepository.co.uk
Play.com
Amazon.co.uk
Waterstones.com
Yeah, I wish, fucking Russia is not included.F611 said:
Thanks for the other sites as well.
My volume 34 just arrived. Such a great portion of the series... It's awesome to revisit this stuff.
However, I have to note some of the translation problems I had with this one. The big one has already been addressed earlier in the thread (Demonic Release). But there's another terrible one that slipped under the radar. The episode title for 297 as translated by SKnet is "The Blind Giant God." DH's version is "The Giant God of Blindness."
That's uh... that's quite a bit different. Ganishka didn't reincarnated himself twice so he could be ruler of all that is blind. He's become blind and amnesic as a result of the transformation. Just embarassing, DH...
But I actually really liked how they handled the key dialogue between Femto and Ganishka in ep 303. Particularly:

I didn't notice it until their wording here, but this reminds me of Void's speech in Volume 12 to Griffith, pre-sacrifice, about how because the principles of the world transcends human understanding, man must embrace evil to realize its destiny.
Yeah I got my copy too, and loved reading it. I was used to seeing these panels/ pages on the computer rather big, but prefer seeing it on paper.

I ain't mad at it!
I don't usually get mad at waiting to have items shipped to me, but this is ridiculous! 
As I said before I ordered my volume 34 through Chapters, not only have they not even shipped my order yet, several stores in my area have them listed as in stock!!
Hopefully a little bit of complaining will allow me to just take one of their in stock book instead of the one I ordered.

Ugh, "Demonic Release" by itself was bad enough but reading it in the context of the scene is even worse. It doesn't even flow right. Other than that and the Knight of Skeleton issue, Vol. 34 was a great read. I'm just glad I can refer to SK.net's translations whenever Dark Horse lets me down.
