The Berserk manga will continue this year, following the death of its creator, Kentaro Miura, last year. Kouji Mori, a close friend of Miura and a published manga creator, will take over the writing duties of the series, while the illustrations will be handled by Miura's art assistants.
«Before his passing, Kentaro Miura spoke to his close friend Kouji Mori about the stories and episodes he had in mind for Berserk,» manga publisher Young Animal said in a statement. «He also had similar talks with his studio staff and editor. Since he did not leave behind rough drafts, it is impossible for us to create a manuscript exactly in the way he would have intended. However, we will write the manga so as not to deviate from Mr. Miura's own words.»
Berserk will resume in the next issue of Young Animal's magazine, with the next six chapters concluding the Fantasia arc. A new arc will begin afterward, although Young Animal didn't mention how many issues this storyline will run for. «We believe that this policy, although imperfect, is the best way to deliver the Berserk that Mr Miura envisioned to everyone as faithfully as possible,» the publisher said.
