Reading Berserk legally in EU (programming.dev)

I wonder whether there is a way to read Berserk legally in EU possibly online. There are options in Japan, few in US me thinks but none obvious in EU. And in case there is Amazon, I don't want it from there.

Do you mean from an EU company or just generally available in the EU?

In case of the latter: I'd recommend Kobo. I use that for most of my digital manga reading. Berserk is on it too (am in EU as well, not sure if same country. That might impact it). Kobo ebooks are also really easy to remove the DRM from.

Slovenia here, Berserk not available. Not surprisingly :( I guess buying from another country is not possible, is it? Stupid EU fragmentation.

Damn, that's unfortunate. Unfortunately licenses are still country-based. You can access other country's Kobo stores, but I don't know how the library works for that. I guess you could try that. Just to double check: make sure you're filtering on English titles. Kobo defaults to searching only in my native English for me and then it finds nothing.
