Berserk Volume 14

In Berserk Volume 14, the once-mighty Band of the Hawk faces devastation in the aftermath of betrayal and supernatural intrigue. Their charismatic leader, Griffith, succumbs to ambition's darker allure, forging a sinister pact with the enigmatic demon lords of the Godhand. This unholy alliance demands a gruesome sacrifice: the lives of his own devoted soldiers, offered to usher Griffith's rise to hellish power and restore his broken form.

As the Invocation of Doom rains a nightmarish torrent of horror across the world, the once-unshakeable camaraderie and strength of the Hawks disintegrate. The first cataclysmic clash leaves lasting scars, fracturing the body of Guts, their valiant champion, and shattering the mind of Casca, their compassionate captain and Guts' beloved companion. While time offers scant solace for Guts' physical injuries, his soul smoulders with a relentless fury, yearning for retribution against the forces that have wronged him and those he cherished.

Armed with a newfound weapon of awe-inspiring might—an enormous sword said to slay dragons—Guts embarks on a perilous journey of vengeance. His resolve steeled, he seeks to harness this weapon to deliver fierce justice upon the malevolent entities that tore his life asunder.

This volume also presents a special treat for fans and newcomers: Berserk Prototype, the original tale conceived by Kentaro Miura during his university years. This early creation served as Miura's portfolio piece, capturing the essence that would burgeon into the expansive and influential Berserk series.

Berserk Volume 14 delves into themes of betrayal, survival, and vindication, inviting readers to immerse themselves in a world where human resilience clashes with dark, otherworldly forces. The profound narrative and intricate artwork by Miura continue to captivate, promising a gripping read for ardent followers and new readers alike.
