Berserkchapter 364 preview spoilers explained

The preview shows the chapter will continue from where chapter 363 ended. With Guts encountering the mysterious kid that has been appearing and disappearing multiple times during his journey. We can also spot Casca meeting with the kid, which is their first meeting since she regained her sense. Guts' party members are also seen in a panel. Lastly, we can see a character with Griffith-like hair appearing.

Some fans are speculating that’s Griffith himself. Some believe it’s the kid turning into Griffith, seeing the ends of the hairs are black. Personally, I’d say the kid will transform into an adult form, which will look similar to Griffith, with similar hair. In any case, I believe it’s way too early to judge and we need to wait for the full chapter. It’s possible we won’t even have a concise answer yet either and will have to wait for the next chapter.

More onBerserk, Kentarou Miura

Kentarou Miurapassed awayon June 10, 2025 due to acute aortic dissection. He was 54 years old. Later on, one of his assistants noted it’s not impossible the manga would continue. And now it is continuing, though it’s very likely chapter 364 was the final chapter Miura directly worked on. So it’s likely future chapters won’t be coming as fast. For now we can only wait.

Dark fantasy mangaBerserkwas a huge influence on several anime, games manga, and novels in Japan and beyond. The most popular example is theSoulsseries by FromSoftware, which is pretty much an unlicensed adaptation ofBerserk.
