So due to a lack of suggestions for this month @Pinky The Blue Flamingo and I decided to go over one of my all time favourite manga, the immensely long but immensely rewarding: Berserk
Also warning: this podcast contains a horrible rendition of Susumu Hirasawa's "Forces"
Genre: fantasy
Author: Kantaro Miura
Number of volumes: 40 (39 available in English at this time of writing)
Years published: 1989 - now
Some corrections of factual inaccuracies mentioned during the cast:
1. Miura never pitched Berserk to Shonen Jump. I had it confused with Attack on Titan which Hasayama did pitch to Shonen Jump only to be turned down by them before eventually landing his series at Bessatsu Shonen Magazine
2. Berserk doesn't have over 40 volumes, it has exactly 40 volumes as of this writing
3. The Golden Age arc doesn't start in volume 4 but rather at the tail end of volume 3.
Special thanks to @Kuze for additional editing.
