This complete first edition set of *Berserk* volumes 1-41, created by Kentaro Miura, is a significant find for collectors, especially given its original Japanese print that reflects the high manufacturing standards of the time.

The inclusion of dust jackets—despite their rarity for the first 13 volumes—adds to the allure, as complete sets in good condition are often sought after for both their artistic and historical value.

While the slight signs of aging may deter some, for dedicated fans of the dark fantasy genre, this set represents a tangible connection to Miura’s influential work, encapsulating the series' acclaimed narrative and artistic evolution.

In the current Japanese collector market, a bid of ¥250,000 is reflective of the growing appreciation for early print runs and the overall rarity of such comprehensive collections.
