The Golden Age arc begins its horrifying conclusion in volume twelve of Kentaro Miura's fantasy epic B.
What can I say about the Eclipse?
It would be rude of me to spoil this volume so I will simple say this, never in a series have I seen such a horrifying spectacle. The events in this volume completely change Berserk and you have to give credit to Miura this is a seriously drastic change. I'd have loved to been in the room as he pitched the plot for this event, getting to see the editors faces as he describes the sequences he had planned would have been priceless.
This volume is pure horror done in an exquisite way, the imagination behind the art is astounding! It is a prime example of high octane nightmare fuel. What a great way to conclude the Golden Age and it was stunning to reread as well. Plus there are cameo appearances by Puck, The Skull Knight and Zodd! Brilliant.
