Berserk Fan Art Is Begging to Become an Official Guts Statue
In a spectacular piece of Berseker fan art by comic artist Simone D'Armini, a reimagined Guts wields his iconic Dragonslayer sword with his telltale reckless abandon. The image would make a perfect model for a Guts statue. While Berserk's creator Kenatario Miura may have passed, his work is still inspiring artists to this day.
