Isidro is the most well written character and has the best character development


tsnv1011

Yeah him and Farnese and serpico a bit


Anarch-ish

"There should be more puck." *- No one, ever*


TotallyFunctional2

No joke though, Puck‘s just fine. He‘s not as essential as he was in the Black Swordsman arc anymore, but some goofy comic relief is needed in this series sometimes.


tsnv1011

Yeah yeah agreed. Wish he more of an importance in guts’ story like schierke did but oh well guess it hurt puck to be around guts so much so he preferred being more with Isidro. Isidro could be guts with a more normal ish childhood tbh


WildPuck_

I mean as puck did say before, this story would he too dark without him


tsnv1011

There should be more Puck. - Someone on reddit out of spite


DunionKnight

Fuck Judeau But no. Not actually. Bothers me that I said it.


TheSlayingMoon

Judeau is one of my favourites


DunionKnight

He’s not * adjusts collar * a cool * cough * guy... But he is. We’d all grab drinks, throw darts, and lose. Judeau would be a good sport about it all the same.


robtheinstitution

it's sad to think that he's probably in that Hell place where the souls swirl forever.


JakeDoubleyoo

Am I the only one who thinks about this literally every time I look at a member of the OG Band of the Hawk? What really kills me is Gaston. He left the band before Griffith's fuckup and started his own business, *then* chose to come back after he found out they were fugutives.


Nihux

Fuck


PhilicStream

dude went and triggered himself lmao


Exitdor

Boats


Bindilis

It never ends


Jatt710

So glad I started berserk after the boat stuff.


majo2005

Tbh i don't understand why does everyone hate boats. Could somebody explain please ?


Exitdor

8 years


bigpuss619

Kentauro Miura bottled the berserk ending.


theadrinn

Can you explain more? genuinely interested


LetsDieForMemes

He died before writing it


lost_my_og_account

Its not like he killed himself smh


LetsDieForMemes

It's not to be taken that seriously


BigBoyMatto

Guess you triggered one person at least


LemonOverHeaven

I believe he means he didn't want everyone to hate him, and sorta dragged it on till something happened. I don't believe he did that for a second, just dissecting what he meant.


GrimWolf216

Bonebeard is the best character in the series.


Budget-Oil4356

I loved him 😔


GrimWolf216

I think we all did.


Budget-Oil4356

I dont even know if that was sarcasm or not, i didnt suffered the Boat so maybe thats why i dont hate him


GrimWolf216

If Bonebeard entered One Piece, he would undeniably beat Luffy to become the Pirate King.


tsnv1011

Hated all of the ship chapters pls. Bone beard my ass


GrimWolf216

Don’t be triggered. You loved him. As did I. Not a waste of time at all, especially when he gained the power of seaweed. Bonebeard is love. Bonebeard is life.

Guts is worth 3 silver coins

The r/berserklejerk horde is coming. They are the devoted disciples of Saint Donovan, and they shall know no fear


PorcupinArseIHateYou

I hate myself for writing this. I'm sad that Daddy Dono forced himself on Guts. 😔 I'm sure that if he asked nicely guts chan would've agreed 😩🥵 but yeah I understand Donovan for what he is... A complex character that couldn't resist that 3 silver coin boi bussy 🤑. ~Daddy Dono can make me anytime though~ 😏 Yo wtf this is my first comment to hit 100 you filthy degenerates!

Latvian_Potatoe

Even if Miura lived his natural lifespan, he would have never finished Berserk


Extermindatass

Didn't he live his natural lifespan though?


[deleted]

I think what he meant by natural lifespan is passing away due to old age.


SuperArppis

That is caused by heart stopping. His heart stopped, so it was natural.


Itasai

Average life expectancy In Japan would’ve been a better way to word it


Darkbornedragon

No, he died because an artheria exploded, which is not a normal thing


Drobex

It actually didn't explode, the blood created a gap between the inner and outer layers of the artheria's walls and filled the so created sack. Terrible way to go, very rare and not the "normal" thing to happen but it was in fact natural, it's not like he was run over by a truck.


mihai180391

To get run over by a truck and get isekai'd to the Berserk world


gaveler-unban

He absolutely did, his heart failure came from a defect that would have killed him at around his age. He basically had a softer aorta and it would have eventually split.


Latvian_Potatoe

An aortic dissection comes from accumulated damage of the aorta due to high blood pressure and/or smoking. The only genetic disease associated with it is Marfan’s syndrome, which I seriously doubt Miura had. It’s not like he had a pre-existing condition that made it certain he would die in his 50’s.


robtheinstitution

idk if Miura smoked, but the japanese sure love their cigarettes


MrSATism

Even if Miura lived *forever*, he would have never finished Berserk FTFY


HowlingMadHoward

A huge amount of Berserk fans are edgy as hell


SandyCandyHandyAndy

I mean to be fair this is Berserk


Senshiro02

Berserk ripped off Dark Souls.

Who ripped off blood borne

Armoured Core

And they ripped off kings Field


LiquidCas

Berserk is only popular because of Dark Souls


StupidFuckingGaijin

It's funny because chances are I wouldn't have read Berserk without Dark Souls


BlindingEclipse139

Berserk ripped off SAO

Now you’ve gone too far


SirJerichoMoonlight

I thought the one about Casca being raped was worse than this


Karpattata

The God Hand want to know your location Lol seriously though what an ingenious answer. Well done.


[deleted]

I can take disrespectful comments about Miura as childish, but this one makes my hair stand.


LiquidCas

I came here for this, wasn’t disappointed.


DefinetelyNotAPotato

Take my upvote and leave this godforsaken land.


sn00pdogg

Berserk has a lot of unnecessary rape scenes and the overall quality of the story has reduced since the berserker armor was first introduced.


Its_just_Aris

Yeah, I think Miura said in an interview (don't remember which one and I haven't been able to find it for the life of me) that he kind of regretted going so hard on the sexual violence, which makes it lessening so much make a lot more sense aside from the story just maturing. Elaborate on this decline in quality though, please


kellerm17

agree with the gratuity of the sexual assaults, hard disagree with writing quality. miura was really growing as a writer in later chapters when he’s stopped trying to make everything so edgy and let them be exactly as they are


AlexWoods11

The eclipse rape scene is literally so necessary to the story and dick horse also is to Farnese’s character development, I do agree that the pregnant women dying to birth to the orc things (I can’t remember what their name was right now) was a bit much. The berserker armor thing is completely untrue though, it’s such a perfect compliment to guts’ personality, and the fact that every time he uses it his friends have to pull him back is a great allegory for his inner hatred and how he needs people around him to remind him of what he’s fighting for.


robtheinstitution

the eclipse rape scene (casca's rape) was very well fitting. Griffith was humiliating Guts by taking Casca. Ngl but that cemented my hate for Griffith more than anything, I don't understand why he couldn't just save them after becoming Femto.


nenryokuzetsurin

> I don't understand why he couldn't just save them after becoming Femto. I... Didn't ever even think of that. Holy shit. How the fuck would the Godhand even react? I know realistically Femto wouldn't have been born until the vast majority of them had already gotten eaten, but could he have actually saved Guts and Casca if he wanted to? Not just hesitate to squish them when SK came, but actively command the Apostles to stop and kill the ones who disobey? Would that break the demon contract or whatever and send him back to the Abyss? Void: "Sacrifice all your friends to demons to obtain supreme power over all demons" Femto: *uses his power to save friends from demons.* Void: "Wait, that's illegal."


DeleriousDesigner

I think the issue is that by the time he fully becomes Femto he is so unbelievably far removed from being a human that it would never even occur to him to save them, or do anything for them. None of them matter anymore. It would be like bending over backwards to save some bacteria.


soldiercross

Because he sacrificed them. He COULD have but then he wouldn't have been willing to sacrifice them in the first place.


Chimera-98

I think it is also that femtho (or how you spell his name ) is basically Griffith but every aspect of him taken to the extreme, he seems to have feelings to casca pre eclipse but after it he probably only saw her as sexual object for him


YourPenixWright

I actually heavily agree with this. Not that I think berserk is bad, but to me it felt very samey after he got the berserk armor. Though it was starting to get better.


porzingitis

This isn’t triggering, it’s just ur specific knock on beserk lol


Dez-A-Raygun

The 2016 anime adaptation will be the last anime adaptation.


[deleted]

The worst thing is your probably right


OFC_ZAVALA

Hp love craft would fucking hate berserk, prob call casca a slur too


Dan_The_Badger

Just facts here. Stories inspired by lovecraft are almost always better then his original work

The_Gentle_Mander

Kirito is better than Guts and noly he deserves the title of black swordsman


OYoureapproachingme

Very true. Guts is kinda a sad ripoff. Really disappointed w Miura


lost_my_og_account

Unlike guts, kirito has that harem, he really is better in everyway


SpoonOfDestiny

Guts can’t even dual wield


bubbystr

Good lord, this makes me want to rip your jaw off. Well done, I’ll slap you with an upvote.


Individual_Finding12

Puck sucks.


SONIC48866

I still like Puck, but he fulfilled his role of being Guts’ only partner/audience surrogate a long time ago. I’d be okay if Puck stayed behind on the island. Could have a heartfelt goodbye with Guts.


n3rdboynoah

Puck disappeared around conviction. Since then, he's has an annoying fucking chestnut thing following him around.


r3vb0ss

puck for the last 15 volumes sucks


crunkusMadunkus

Donovan did nothing wrong.


DBRedHood

Berserk's only good arc is Golden Age.

haha I often see people say that or that Berserk falls off after it. I like them all.

Haider2222

After the eclipse a lot of the rape scene were just excessive


[deleted]

You really want the worst thing I can think of? Ok, you asked for it: Miura dying saved us from having to wait on his lazy ass from taking ages to put out one chapter. The man couldve had a dynasty and half had he gotten off his punk ass and be more consistent. Now at least we can hope his assistants could maybe do better and learn not to be a time waster like Miura (Of course I dont mean a word of it, please dont sacrifice me to the Godhand)


yeagerboi01

I would sacrifice everyone in this sub to the Godhand just to see how Berserk will end


Ori_of_Ath

This is so good that it crosses the lines!


WesTheFitting

Official releases have better translations (and image quality) than scanlations

Galaveregepp

ParkRangerRafe

You will never get an end to the story.


softjock

Guts is gay


rcdt

I don’t see how this is triggering. There’s definitely a sexual tension with Griffith, even if he is straight or bi. The strong feelings between them are plotcentric, it wouldn’t be even off-character lol


robtheinstitution

Griffith is literally the prettiest being in the manga. Guts is confused by that pretty face.


TaffyLacky

He's so pretty that SK's gf reminded me of him first


softjock

Every time Guts/Griffith sexuality (or Miura’s feelings *towards* homosexuality) is brought up on this sub, a fair amount of debate and name-calling ensues. I’d call that triggered. That said, I agree with you. I’m gay and here for the tension.


[deleted]

That’d trigger the fanbase? Could be a cool twist, tbh. Casca decides she is too traumatized to be close to anyone for the foreseeable future. Guts does some soul searching, looks at his obsession with revenge, finds out he was gay the whole time.


_claymore-

>Guts does some soul searching, looks at his obsession with revenge, finds out he was gay the whole time. I'm not angry.. I'm.. just gay?


DickGuyJeeves

Guts and Casca are both sacrifices, and whether or not they have their happy ending, they're both mortal, they'll both die one day, and they're almost certainly going to the abyss.


Krugersan

Griffith was right.


orva12

Rape is fetishized in berserk.

Omg is this a Jojo reference


lebanesewifey

the amount of people saying they sympathise with Griffith despite him being a full on rapist….. concerning and disgusting

A philanthropist?

You don’t exactly have the right to call yourself a philanthropist if you’re actually the one causing the problems you want to solve

SwiftyEmpire

All of the band of the hawk swore their lives to Griffith's dream, so when Griffith actually took them up on that offer, everyone hates him.
