This article is about the guild in Ikebukuro. For the skill, go to Berserker.

Regarded as the strongest guild in Tokyo, with its members constantly pushing their own boundaries in terms of raw power. Their home base is a colosseum where fighters compete for coin and glory, attracting only the most capable and bloodthirstiest of warriors.
—Affiliation Description

The Berserkers, referred in full as the Ikebukuro Berserkers, is a guild located in Ikebukuro, Toshima Ward.

The Guild Master is Claude.

Overview

The core philosophy of the Berserkers revolves around the act and spectating of fighting. Claude holds matches within their home base, the underground Ikebukuro Colosseum located within and beneath the building previously known as the Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre. A rule placed down by him states that only the strongest warriors may pass through the gate. In order to enter the Colosseum, the visitor's strength must be recognized by a current gladiator of the Colosseum.[1]2

They claim to be the strongest guild in Tokyo, though this is likely not true because of the existence of the Three True Guilds.

The Affiliation icon depicts two swords clashing against a backdrop of a Roman Colosseum engulfed in flames.

Ikebukuro Experiment

With Claude's massive wealth, he constructed the Ikebukuro Underground Labyrinth. Based on Claude's assumptions about the loops happening in Tokyo, he used this space not only to hold the numerous matches but as an experimental space that could recreate the environmental conditions of the App. The purpose of this experiment was to figure out how to end the loops, as well as to figure out a way to stay in the fight as long as possible. Claude also requested The Wisemen, notably Duo, to create a safe house within the labyrinth hidden in a way that nobody could predict its whereabouts, even if they knew about its existence. Shuichi implies that Duo did this knowing that only Shuichi would know Duo's genius enough to be able to figure out its location.[2]11

Rankers

A ranking system is used to determine the prize money rewarded to notable individuals. Those that fall outside of this shortlist can participate in Unranked Battles or can challenge a Ranker for their spot. Rankers must accept all battles to maintain their rank. Despite the prestige that comes with being amongst the Rankers, the rankings actually fluctuate greatly. This is partially due to match fixing and baiting greenhorns.

When the Protagonist first enters the Colosseum in Chapter 3, the Rankers are initially ordered as indicated below:

Rank Name Notes
1 Macan
2? Cthugha Never stated, but a likely assumption.
3 Oniwaka
4/5 Ikutoshi By process of elimination, Ikutoshi must be either 4th or 5th.
6 Kengo
7 Bathym
8 Pollux
9 Horkeu Kamui
10 Previously
Taurus Mask
Implied to have been left by Taurus Mask

After Chapter 3, the Rankers' order is roughly as follows:

Rank Name Notes
1 Macan
2? Cthugha Never stated, but a likely assumption.
3 Unfilled Oniwaka was desummoned after his battle with the Protagonist, and so was unable to retain his spot anymore.
4/5 Ikutoshi By process of elimination, Ikutoshi must be either 4th or 5th.
6 Unfilled Kengo left the Berserkers.
7 Bathym
8 Pollux
9 Unfilled Horkeu Kamui left his spot to reside in the mountains.
10 ???

I assume MacRoich is among the rankings now if going by the valentine's event.

Another case of protagonist centered morality as the story never brings up the shady baiting practices or how many people got hurt because of it ever again.
