After 9 Months, Berserk Finally Returns With First New Chapter of 2026

Berserkfans are unfortunately no strangers to hiatuses. The Berserk manga most recently went on hiatus with the release of Chapter 382 on September 12, 2025, leaving the story off on a depressingly bleak cliffhanger. After losing Casca to Griffith on Elfhelm, Guts has officially lost all will to live, as he both metaphorically and literally sinks into a deep depression. Now a shell of his former self, Berserk is setting up its darkest era for Guts since the Eclipse.
