Kentaro Miura is one of the greatest mangaka of all time. Against all odds, his work on Berserk shot up in popularity to the point where it served as a huge influence for other people looking to make their mark in the dark fantasy genre. Guts' anti-hero nature, his tendency to wield a massive sword, and one of the greatest arcs in manga history are just some of the many ways Berserk has become one of the most iconic works of all time.
