Farewell Miura Sensei

[Cugino83]

A sad new that just arrive today: last may 6th Kentaro Miura died at age of 54 for an "acute aortic dissection" (sorry for the medical term, I just use a traslator for that...).
Miura was one of the, if not the most, acclaimed mangaka of the last 20 years if not more, his bestseller, Berserk a dark-horror fantasy sell over 40 milion of copy all around the world.
From a follower manga reader that really appreciate his designs and attention to detail this is a really sad news.

Wow, tragic to lose such a talented person at such a relatively young age:

Berserk creator, Kentaro Miura, has died aged 54

Berserk had an impact that can be seen across multiple different types of fiction.

Idol Master stole years from the story and now death has stolen the story's completion from fans. We probably had another 30 years to go. Sad times.

Sorry for your loss. 40 million readers. . . seems he will be well remembered.

I don't think it will be finish.... at least not in the way Miura whould have done. Most likely there will be few chapter (1-2) that are already plotted out and will be compleated by Miura's assistant, after that production will be closed.

I mean if he had an assistant than maybe his assistant knows how it was supposed to end and can formulate the manga getting there.

Well gents, theres only one thing to do. Lets mount an expedition for the Behelit and pick a fight with the God Hand for Kentaro-sempi's soul, the fate of Berserk is at hand.
