Fans of the dark fantasy series Berserk of Gluttony have reason to celebrate!

Reflecting on the First Season's Success
The inaugural season of the Berserk of Gluttony anime graced screens in Fall 2023, delivering a captivating 12-episode run that introduced viewers to the world-building and intense action of the series. Produced with meticulous care by animation studio A.C.G.T., the first season was praised for bringing Ichika Isshiki's vision to life with dynamic animation and engaging storytelling. The global fanbase was well-served by Crunchyroll, which provided extensive simulcasting services, offering the anime with multiple subtitle options and dubs. This ensured that a wide international audience could easily immerse themselves in the adventures of the protagonist blessed, or perhaps cursed, with the unique Gluttony skill. This successful first run undeniably paved the way for the exciting second season announcement.
The Genesis of Gluttony: From Web Novel to Light Novel
The rich narrative of Berserk of Gluttony originates from the creative mind of Ichika Isshiki. The author first began sharing this action-fantasy saga on the renowned Shousetsuka ni Narou website in January 2017. As its popularity soared, the series transitioned to Kakuyomu in March 2022, continuing to gather a dedicated readership. Micro Magazine recognized the immense potential of the story and began publishing it under their esteemed GC Novels imprint starting in November 2017. These published volumes are further enhanced by the stunning illustrations provided by fame, known for their work on series like Saikyou no Shienshoku "Wajutsushi" de Aru Ore wa Sekai Saikyou Clan wo Shitagaeru. The ongoing success of the light novel is evident with the recent release of its eighth volume in Japan in April 2024, proving its enduring appeal and depth.
Expanding the Universe: The Manga Adaptation
Beyond the light novels and anime, the world of Berserk of Gluttony has also found a vibrant life in manga format. Talented artist Daisuke Takino took up the task of adapting Isshiki's story into manga form, commencing its serialization on the Comic Ride website in March 2018. This visual interpretation has been highly successful in its own right, captivating readers with its detailed artwork and faithful adaptation of key plot points and character designs. Micro Magazine, the same publisher behind the light novels, also oversees the release of the manga volumes. The series continues to thrive, with the 14th volume having been published in September 2025 (as per the source material's release schedule), and the 15th volume already slated to go on sale on April 28. Fans eager for the next installment have much to look forward to in the coming months.
Berserk of Gluttony Reaches English-Speaking Audiences
For international fans, the good news extends to accessibility.

This strategic acquisition has allowed a vast new demographic to dive into the intricate world and compelling narrative.
