Berserk Volume 43

An empire prepares for war against Griffith--yet they hold his sworn adversary, Guts, prisoner in chains...and worse is that Guts is a prisoner within himself!

The epic dark fantasy manga continues with Miura's longtime assistants Studio Gaga, under the supervision of his closest friend, Kouji Mori.

Having escaped the horrific devastation of Elf Island only to be boarded by unknown raiders, the crew of the Seahorse find that they have intruded into the territorial waters of the vast Kushan Empire!

Sunk into his own personal darkness, Guts hardly seems to care as the Kushan lead him away in chains, even as Roderick, Farnese, Serpico, Morda, Isidro, Schierke and the other survivors are taken in as refugees. But they find no steady ground on shore either...for a grand council of the Kushan tribes is assembling to debate plans for war--against Falconia and its fearsome, matchless ruler Griffith, the Hawk of Light!

The politics of the council are dangerous, but more dangerous still is that the Hawk's power is already among them, striking through murderous sorcery. In this critical moment, Guts' companions can't rely on him to help...and in fact, is he to blame...?

Extra content includes a double-sided, full color illustrated fold out, an afterword by Kouji Mori, and a bonus comic strip about Kentaro Miura!

For mature audiences.
