Manticore battle. Miura is so good at drawing beasts. Wonder why the manticore hesitated.

A lot to be uncovered, most likely Usumgallu's connection with the gods. We can only theorise at this point.

His assistants, I'd say. I don't have the full grasp of the production but I'm quite sure he's not drawing Duranki.

Anyway, cool chapter. I was expecting a little more "peace" before a relatively big challenge, but subverting expectations is mostly appreciated on my part.

Usum was able to find out more about the vileness of humanity's nature towards people they don't hold bonds with through her old man's story and I was thinking about how Kirta and his people going to war would be the main issue she'd be occupied with but I certainly didn't expect a manticore to show up!

It's a pretty disillusioning moment to find out that not all of the fantastical creatures out there are willing to help you out by having a beast of legend charge towards you with its gigantic maw. It's a good thing that she has friends to help her but it'd be difficult to defeat a beast like that.

So far I think this manga has some potential, it is too soon to give it an exact score right now.

As a kid, I grew up reading the Percy Jackson series and loved Greek mythology, so this theme is definitely something that I am interested in.

This story also is extremely similar to Hercules or at least the Disney movie of Hercules where a child born from Greek Gods is sent down to earth. Very similar but Usum has learned about war and violence which I believe will be an interesting plot.

Usum crafted the crossbow which they gave to humans. The whole point of the crossbow was to allow for someone to easily create a powerful shot for hunting wild animals.

Usum’s innocence is shown when they are so willing to create multiple weapons for the humans without knowing the potential consequences of doing such. Basically they’re gonna mass produce the crossbow and use it to kill other people. Usum didn’t create this weapon to harm other humans but they soon realize that this is a possibility after learning about war.

I think that this is going to be the main theme that will unfold in the future chapters. With that being said, I look forward to it!

I’m finally caught up on this manga. This manga is pretty enjoyable but with some minor problems, but for this chapter there’s really nothing wrong with it. It was a short chapter packed with a fight between usum and a monster, and so far I see the young lord resembles a younger version of guts. So far I like the manga.

Had really high hopes for this so I hope it goes on

I caught up on Duranki and I hope he told his plans to his assistants. This could be a good starting point for Studio Gaga to continue what Miura started and could move to Berserk afterwards.

RIP Miura. I think Berserk has potential to continue but I'm worried about Duranki. It's done a lot of brilliant world building under Miura and I wonder if his assistants could continue, at the same time I bet they are all trying their best to work on Berserk and meet expectations. All the best to them and Miura's family as well

That is a pity. It did look like a really intriguing story...
Interested in what his assistants will do from now on. I'll be sure to follow them. (This manga existed for the assistants to work on their skills for Berserk.)

Usum's innocence is gradually facing new threats coming from outside world: wild beasts, the concept of humans waging wars, and now they have encountered a literal beast from the legends - a manticore.

Pan was awesome with his comedy relief moments and with flute skills. As always, haha.

Good that Kirta and others appeared in time.

It's a shame that this manga got discontinued. These six chapters were great. It was such a nice tale with huge potential. RIP Kentaro Miura. Perhaps someday, in the future, Studio Gaga will return to Duranki? It'd be really cool if they did.

Oh, surprisingly nothing tragic happened. I wonder how much of the story we got to see that Miura planned to create.
