No Berserk thread here? Time to fix that. R.I.P., Kentaro Miura. Kouji Mori took over the manga since Miura's passing because he was a personal friend of his, and he knows the script. I hope he won't screw it up. What do you guys think so far? The latest chapter is currently 367. The next one is scheduled for August 12. These recent chapters made me hate that asshole Griffith even more. I look forward to the next one, but I also kind of dread it. Anyway, feel free to discuss all things Berserk ITT. Morda is the best girl, by the way.

Berserk is overhyped trash, the art is good but the plot is a complete spaghetti mess of edgy garbage. It starts with Griffith totally breaking character and having a manbaby meltdown when guts leaves. Then the king gets jealous of Griffith nailing his daughter and molests her himself. Then casca and guts totally break character and fuck just so the author can inject more sex into his hollow haphazard story. Then casca gets raped by demon Griffith which corrupts the fetus which then disappears then incubates in some egg monster to be reborn as Griffith 2.0 and it's just some of the worst, most schizophrenic fucking writing I've ever seen. Then the author up and dies leaving his trainwreck of a manga forever unfinished, which I found to be poetic. Fuck berserk.
>>960 It's not Griffith breaking character. Griffith is a manipulative control freak & always has been. Guts daring to leave him when he sees him as his most valuable warrior, the closest to his equal, & possibly being in love with him drove Griffith crazy. On top of actually losing to him. It's what drove him to impulsively thrust himself onto the princess. For a sense of comfort in his mental turmoil but also to further his plans of becoming the princess's love so he can climb the social ladder. Problem was this got him caught & thrown in the dungeon by the incestuous mad king.
Just finished chapter 359 Gotta say I'm angry
>>1003 369* the last couple of chapters went by so fast I forgot which one it stopped at.

Not sure if the low number of people on this board know, but there's been a countdown on the official Berserk website for the past two or so months. Not sure what it could be, but my guess is another anime. If so, let's hope it's a GOOD adaptation this time. https://berserk-me.com/
Wasn't there another disaster lately where Guts has to go through all the horrible bullshit with Griffith and Casca again? Its like they're torturing him for no reason at this point, I hope the assistant guy or whoever isn't being controlled by marketing or something to make him do this "forever ongoing story" shit.
>>1288 Berserk 2016 was the most faithful adaptation. :^)
>>1291 I think a Berserk puppet show could've probably been better than that

>>1288 Never mind, it was just leading up to a Blu-ray/DVD announcement.
>>924 I have recently started reading it, reached the chapters at the wharf, forgot if they mentioned the name of the city but I'm right around when Farneze decides to join Guts again alongside her fianceè and brother I think the worst aspect so far with the manga is Puck. I really liked him in the beginning since he had that sort of pure heart to counter Guts being a depressed murderman, but ever since Miura decided to make him into the comic relief chestnut guy I really lost interest in a lot of the dialogue. It feels like he was put there just as filler because a manga with only fight scenes and occasional exposition dumps wouldn't sell well with Jap kids. Speaking of, I wish the font for this board was a bit bigger, it's barely readable on some posts.
>>1536 Yeah, that's kinda how it went. Not that bad, but it could've been better. Not a major complaint tho. >i wish the font for this board was a bit bigger You can increase it? Why not complain about the colors?

Honestly, after reading Berserk for so long, and reading the new chapters after Miura's passing, basically it's left much of the fandom in a state of enmity for the new creative director of the series. Not only is it still progressing super fucking slow (it's been just about 4 months since the last chapter was published), but this panel sums up the whole thing. Guts in the Yamcha death pose.
>>2990 How do you expect a team trying to replicate Miura's style & respect his writing plans without pissing off the fans to pump out chapters at a regular rate?
