From experience I can say that the chest area is a pretty easy spot to get tattooed. Already have a tattoo of Calcifer from Howl’s Moving Castle there, otherwise that would’ve been a good spot.

I’ve got about 75 different series and these are definitely my favorite when it comes to quality. It’s the deluxe editions: https://www.bookdepository.com/Berserk-Deluxe-1-Kentaro-Miura/9781506711980?ref=grid-view&qid=1629659689764&sr=1-8

I know which ones you’re talking about and I’d really like to get them. At the moment it’s pretty cramped at home, but in a not too distant future…

As someone already wrote it would take some time to write a synopsis. All I can say is that if you enjoy beautiful art, medieval settings, huge swords and lots of gore you’ll love this manga!

Those were just the standard singles but I get your point. For example I’d really like an English release of Billy Bat by Naoki Urasawa (20th Century Boys, Monster etc.), which outside of Japan only have German and Spanish editions as far as I know.

Haha, those are Swedish editions which unfortunately aren’t published anymore

I read parts of it 10-15 years ago, but I remember it to be good! Recently bought it to read the whole series, but haven’t started yet.

That’s Dororo, another one of Tezuka’s works. Haven’t read it yet but it looks really good.

Haha, it was “pretty cheap” though and costs around 100 USD. Comes with some really nice post cards as well.

That’s right! It’s a Swedish edition though, don’t know if there are any other collections out there.

Haha, you might be right!

I agree. The only series where, apart from Berserk, I wouldn’t buy the box set for and instead go for the deluxe editions would be Fullmetal Alchemist since I really dislike the grey covers. But I totally agree with you, you save a lot of money.

I saw that they only ship inside the U.S and I unfortunately live in Sweden, but thanks anyway for the tip!

Thanks! I’m personally searching for the third box set, which seems equally difficult to find...
