One of my close college friends is a fan of this series. I haven't had a chance to get in touch with him since I saw this news, but I imagine this'll have an impact on him!

According to the report, he passed away at 54 on May 6th to due acute aortic dissection.

Basically, a master in story-telling and artistry. He definitely has inspired countless people. A shame to see him go, but I hope he knows he's loved up there and is happy wherever he is. Hopefully he has the time to play Idol Master now.

I'm not an avid fan of Berserk, I would definitely be, but I've yet to continue my reading of it, but I do highly appreciate the level of detail in the pages. He's an inspiration for sure.

Oh, this is dreadfully sad. I am only really familiar with Beserk from the '90s cartoon and, obviously, the Dreamcast game, and I never read the comic, but I know how widely appreciated and cherished it is nowadays, and I feel so sorry for all the fans of his work and for his family.

Gosh, what a young age to pass away at, how sad.

Never read Berserk (I don't have the guts to read it) but it's always sad when someone passes away.

The Berserk PS2 game is alot of fun and you all should play it.

Sad to see him go. Rest In Peace.

Berserk will continue, using Miura's notes and ideas, under Mangaka Kouji Mori!
