Recent English volumes have come out about every 29 months. The English edition runs about 1.2 years behind Japan. How we predict

Berserk in English so far

The English edition started with Vol. 1 on Oct 22, 2003 from Dark Horse. In the 21.4 years since, 42 volumes have come out — one about every 6 months on average. The pace has slowed lately: recent volumes have come out about every 2.4 years. The longest wait was 3.6 years, between Vol. 37 and Vol. 38.

Japan is at Vol. 43 (Aug 29, 2025), so 1 volume is already out in Japan but not yet in English. At the current English pace, releasing it would take about 2.4 years.
