Before passing away, Kentarou Miura gifted the fans one of the best manga ever. He created a masterpiece with one of the most iconic rivalries ever. His presence of mind and creativity were very well depicted in his magnum opus. Guts’ journey to put an end to his former friend has kept the anime fans busy for more than three decades.
Berserk has one of the most beautiful drawings, and the minute details were done so well. But the mangaka said that he was not good at drawing manga panels. It may sound surprising, but during an old interview, he confirmed that he had a problem drawing manga panels. Kentarou Miura really went from being bad at creating manga panels to becoming one of the best mangakas.
