Volume 41 has been a long time in coming since the previous volume was released about three years ago[A1] . To announce the release of the new volume, the publisher Hakusensha will be running ads simultaneously in three newspapers worldwide – The New York TimesLe Monde, and The Asahi Shimbun. (Note: In the US and France, the 41st volume of Berserk is set to be released in the summer of 2022.)

Berserk is a dark fantasy tale that began serializing in 1989. The story centers around the protagonist Guts, a swordsman who wields a colossal blade to vanquish otherworldly creatures, as he enters a new stage of his epic journey. In recent years, the series has gained acclaim abroad, winning the Manga Barcelona Award in the seinen (young adult male) category. The series has been published in 20 different regions/countries around the world, such as the US and France, and the work continues to enthrall more and more readers worldwide. On December 24, 2021, which is the release date of the new volume, the publisher Hakusensha will be running ads simultaneously in three newspapers worldwide. The ads will be dedicated to all fans in Japan and around the world who have been with the series since the very beginning, thanking them for having waited so long and for showing their unwavering love and support for the series.

On Friday, December 24, at 5 a.m. (JST), the ad visuals will be unveiled simultaneously across three newspapers worldwide, each with its own design. The ads will utilize Miura’s artworks as their key main visuals, with no text, highlighting his artistry and intricately rendered illustrations. These will be the kind of design that all fans would be eager to collect.

In the US and France, the 41st volume of Berserk is set to be released in the summer of 2022. QR codes will be placed in The New York Times and Le Monde to redirect people to special events, organized respectively in cooperation with the American publisher Dark Horse Comics and the French publisher Glénat Editions.
