He is a man too angry to die, haunted by the literal ghosts of his past and the demonic brand carved into his neck. Guts, the legendary Black Swordsman, traverses a landscape of unrelenting horror, wielding the Dragon Slayer—a massive, jagged slab of iron forged for the sole purpose of slaughtering the inhuman. Once a proud commander in the Band of the Hawk, his life was shattered when his closest friend, Griffith, sacrificed his soul and his entire brotherhood to achieve a godhood built on absolute betrayal. Now, Guts is a marked man, a living sacrifice who refuses to stay dead, forced to fight through every waking hour against the restless spirits and apostles drawn to the blood of the branded. Beneath the visceral carnage and the cold rage of a mercenary lies the deeply human story of a survivor clinging to his sanity while the universe itself tries to crush him. Experience the ultimate struggle of human will against a cruel, preordained destiny in Kentaro Miura’s undisputed dark fantasy masterpiece.
