About Berserk
As much as I like the Berserk anime series, it simply does not compare to its manga counterpart. Here you will find English Berserk manga scans. The main reason to continue the Berserk series through the manga is because the anime series ends on such a cliffhanger. The anime series basically spans the early volumes of Berserk and goes through Volume 12.
However, Guts journey does not stop just there! In fact, the Berserk manga is past Volume 31 and still going!

Support Official Release
Berserk manga has been licensed by
Dark Horse Comics
so please support them! I am only hosting these manga scans to promote the series in hopes that it will become more popular. I personally own Dark Horse's Berserk manga releases and they are very high quality. They are a bit expensive, but are worth it considering a masterpiece like Berserk is priceless! Again, I encourage everyone to
support Dark Horse Comics.
The response I received from hosting Berserk manga scans has been overwhelming. Around the year 2000 or 2001 I remember how the entire Internet Berserk community was hoping that Berserk would be released.
Then after it was released either people complained that it was being released too slow or
they no longer cared. I feel that's the wrong response and I hope anyone who's ever viewed these manga scans try to support the English release. I also understand that not everyone is able to
afford purchasing the manga; I've received hundreds of emails from fans from dozens of different countries that just don't have the funds to buy them. One of my fondest memories was receiving manga scan requests from
people serving over seas; certainly these brave men and women don't have the option to purchase the manga, which is one of the reasons I'm still hosting it. These scans are for people who
have no other way of reading it.
I encourage everyone who has a way of purchasing the manga to go out and do so.

Information & Rotation
The manga scans you will find on this site are ones created by fans. They are not scanned versions of the licensed English versions. On the topic of licensed manga series, I do host licensed series unlike many sites that take down manga scans when they get licensed.
I feel that showcasing the series actually helps in sales. I usually do not host entire series (usually just the beginning or latter volumes) so people tend to purchase the actual graphic novels when they find out how good they are.
As for the fansubbed manga scans, they are created by manga scanlation groups. You can get a full list of groups over at Manga Jouhou. These groups create these fansubs for the fans - I simply distribute
them online. Within each series you will certainly see information pertaining to the groups that created the manga scans. Please support the groups by visiting their web site or mIRC channel.
At Spectrum Nexus we try to offer viewers a wide variety of manga series.
For that reason I have implemented a
manga rotation. Certain long series, such as Hajime no Ippo
(well over 80 volumes long), are under this manga rotation scheme because I can't host
all of the volumes at once. The rotation
consists of showing a set amount of volumes, then every Monday or Thursday they will
rotate out and in will come a new batch. I have found this helps on the
servers and allows me to keep this site up without ever asking for donations.
