The editorial department of Young Animal Comics announced today that Berserk manga artist and creator Kentaro Miura died from acute aortic dissection on May 6.
Originally debuting in 1989, Berserk went on to become one of the best-selling manga of all time and told the story of Guts, a wandering swordsman who inhabited a world of dark fantasy. Guts regularly battled against gods and monsters along the way, as the mercenary was obsessed with enacting revenge against his former brother-in-arms Griffith. Come from malaysia online casino

Since news of his death broke, numerous comic book publications, artists, and video game studios around the world have taken to social media to express their sorrow over Miura’s passing.
