Berserk Volume 6

A bit more of Guts’ past

Feels like the writing gets a bit better, especially because here we have some chapters that are just about talking and that’s great. Also there’s a good pacing for setting new characters, dangerous situation and enemies, although one might think it’s done in a simple way. Casca finally has some character development and tells about her past.

All of a sudden stealth episodes…

Also the ending this time doesn't feel too abrupt. And, of course, the art is still great with very detailed faces, clothes and giant battle or countryside scenes.

But there’s still a bit too many reactions shots and “thinking” speech bubbles but I’m getting used to it, I guess.

So, it's better than the previous one, story progresses at a good pace. Waiting for the Eclipse, I guess...

Good start to this volume, before it gets to my second least favorite bit of the Golden Age arc with Casca.
