Kentaro Miura's work ended with Berserk 364, the last chapter to which the Mangaka, who died in May 2021, actually laid hands. including a specific colleague and trusted friend.
Kouji Mori is a mangaka that has released many titles over time. His best-known titles include Holyland, Destroy and Revolution, Suicide Island and the most recent Sousei no Taiga. But Kouji Mori was also one very close friend of Kentaro Miura. He and the author of Berserk have been linked with the two families who knew each other since high school.
With the publication of Berserk 364, Young Animal Magazine prepared a booklet in which some mangaka, including Kouji Mori, revealed some thoughts about Kentaro Miura and some interactions with him. Kouji Mori in particular had a flood of words to write and attached them to a very short oneshot about his missing friend. The author's wish is to compose a biography of the friendship between himself and Kentaro Miura, while remaining true to a request from the creator of Berserk. In this way we were able to get to know the life of one of the most talented mangaka of the last few decades much more deeply.
Kouji Mori will also be part of the exhibition on Berserk. take part The "Dai Berserk Ten" is to take place in Tokyo in the next few days.
