Wow, I completely forgot about volume 14. I used to drive to every single bookstore in a 10 mile radius just so I could read the new volume and tell everyone I was the first to get it. This is the first DH release that I haven't bought on the first possible day it came out. It kind of makes me depressed, oh well.

I'm glad to say that the FX in 14 are not even noticeable. I hardly saw most of them as they were in corners or in between the "boxes". I hope they keep it this way or just remove them altogether but its nice to see they are trying to improve it. : )

Could you possibly take a scan of a "really heavy text box filled" page and post it?avidwriter said:
This thread is to discuss the story of Berserk, not details of DH's edition. There's a thread in the Berserk Miscellaneous section for that.

Ka-Schnoz!
My local Borders is crappy. And my nearest Forbidden Planet. Borders only have 7 and 8, while FP only have 1, 5 and 9... I wish they'd get more stock!

I feel your pain, where I go to college they stock shit. 14 should have been out 2 months ago and NO SIGN of it. Hell I don't even see 13's and 12's.(though I do have them).

As of Feb. 8th 2007, Amazon.com still has volume 15 up "for pre-order" what's up with that?
My Borders, Waldenbooks, Barnes and Noble, and Books a Million, doesn't even offer Berserk anymore because as one sales rep told me: "It's too nasty, and the kids kept tearing the plastic off."
Bah. I got mine from akadotretail.com
And yes, it rocks.

Oh I'm not suprised, just bitter. 
I just saw all the volumes from 11-15 at Suncoast though. That was alittle unexpected.

That's weird, as the Suncoast I frequent pulled the series from their shelves around volume 4 or 5. Luckily the local Japanese bookstore carries them, they just arrive a week or two after they've been officially released, which seems to be the norm around the Seattle area.

15 has just arrived in glasgow, borders and waterstones still carry them here
My volume 1 came a while ago... it wasn't much different from my scans, and it was expensive. I would like someone to give me a reason to to keep buying them, are the translations really any different from the hawks? I already own the Japanese versions and I don't think it is worth it to keep buying Dark Horse.
Well, if you've already supported Miura by owning the japanese volumes, there's no real moral reason to, in my opinion. DH translations are likely more accurate than most of TheHawks though, based purely on the scrutiny of being in a commercial industry as opposed to nerds fapping over the interweb.pippin22 said:
That being said, DH takes certain liberties with the translation that are just far from ... groovy.

I'm probably crazy but I just finished to read vol 16 of the dark horse edition and at page 139(i think) bottom left panel. the ghost behind Jill's head reminded me of Conrad! anybody noticed that too?!
I have a question regarding volume 16.
about halfway through the final episode in volume 16 guts antagonizes Farnese about her speech on god and how it reminded him of something he once heard a noble say while he was roasting an entire town full of women and children?
Is this refrenced again anywhere in the manga prior or in volumes to come?
I cant think of anyone led mercs and talked about god.
