If BERSERK didn't exist, I would love for Miura to work more on this!
In the far distant future, the world is a vastly different place. It is dying. Crossing a desert is the optimistic Delos accompanied by the young girl, Prome. Thirst is weighing on Delos while Prome seems uncaring about it, promising that she can draw water from the air to provide for him, bout Delos doesn't like the method of delivery.When he spots an oasis, he quickly realizes it's a trap. A monster luring prey. However, spears fly and those who live in the desert that Delos and Prome search for have found them. The scarab tribe, demi-humans that have evolved alongside their domesticated, giant beetles have found them. But they're not happy to discover a pair of humans in their territory.Delos will have to fight for his life to save the very people that want to kill him. Because the Empire of Olympus are coming with their towering Giganto, a god chained and harnessed to their will. They seek to exterminate, and only Delos, with the aide of the strange Prome, have a chance of defeating the giant.This is a fun and imaginative manga, teasing us of a vastly greater world in this simplistic story. The fighting style in it is great, with Delos a wrestler. The art is as gorgeous and detailed as you would expect from the creator of BERSERK. Delos carefree attitude and good-nature humor contrast with the robotic and detached Prome. Their back and forth is great.It's an exciting story that keeps you turning the pages to find out what happens next. At the end, it leaves you wishing for more stories about Delos and Prome's mission to save this dying world from extinction. He gives a tease of would could be a long and satisfying series. You can feel the thought and world building lurking just off the page, begging to be explored.More fantasy than science fiction, it still has elements of it, hinting at how far human technology had grown before collapsing into the new paradigm. It's a celebration of the hardiness of life and the survivability of the human spirit.This was one great graphic novel to read!

Beautiful art, great world.
Without going into it, it is short and the characters aren't too in-depth but it is a very enjoyable read and 100% worth picking up if you are interested. It's not very dark like Berserk, just interesting and enjoyable.

Pretty dope post apocalyptic take on Attack On Titan.
The Great Roar of the Astral World is an event which brings about the merging of the Physical World and Astral World into one – the global Interstice of Fantasia.Consequently, an influx of astral creatures enter the world of man, thus leaving Griffith's capital city of Falconia as the sole safe haven from malign astral creatures.

Leaves You wanting more
there is a little to no background on the characters but they are interesting and the world is very interesting and exciting. Wish it was a one shot but longer. Worth a read!

Beautiful Glimpse...
...into the world of Giganto Maxia.Miura delivers panel after panel of amazing art, while also setting the stage for a shattered world under the thumb of an evil empire to be liberated by a powerful wrestler and his spirit companion.I'd love to see more of this world, but that's not a possibility anymore. Love this man's work. RIP Miura.

Pour les fans de Berserk...
Je l'ai acheté en cadeau à mon copain qui est un énorme fan de Berserk. Il ne l'a pas encore lu mais il était très content et surpris! Le livre est arrivé en bon état.

Consegna rispettata, prodotto perfettamente integro
Consegna rapida, tempi perfettamente rispettati. Il prodotto si presenta come da descrizione, non risulta particolarmente resistente. A livello di storia, il volume è molto d'intrattenimento, la trama interessante anche se breve. I disegni rispecchiano pienamente lo stile dell'autore.

A really smooth, interesting read apart from berserk
Man, I wish Kentaro would have worked more on this Manga, it is, as always coming from him, a very inmersive script followed with wonderful artwork. Real thought provoking, I just wish we had more of this!
