* ''[[Berserk]]'' – {{Years or months ago|1990}}: First volume published in 1990 (with a one-shot pilot in 1989), and has been serialized in ''Young Animal'' since 1992.

However, the anime was only 25 episodes and only lasted half a year; the fact that it went through 13 volumes of story in that time is telling as to why. <!-- Should this be in [[Print Long Runners]]? -->
