>>280084636 (OP)

>>280085063
And yet Guts is still struggling ahead

>>280084896
kek

why do i keep reading this shit lol

that was insane, can't wait for the next chapter

>>280085266
Because it takes like two minutes out of a year to do

>>280085291
you're fast

Holy fuck they are really scraping the bottom of the barrel for this shit huh.

Well I guess there's nothing to talk about here

>>280084734
How is it forgotten if you know about it?

>>280086242
He forgot who was buried in it maybe

>>280084734
Is that a bodhi tree? Looks like Mori is documenting himself just as well as Miuri used to. I really like the Kushan mixed Mughal-Buddhist-Bactrian-Hindu aesthetic.

>>280084811
Why is Silatt so invested in this?
He knows what Guts is capable of, doesn't he?
Yet he talks about him as if he's never respected him at all.

>>280086292
Yeah, a bodhi tree growing up from a stupa. Pretty on the nose.
>>280086306
Silatt has been mad at Guts since the Rakshas encounter

I agree with him. Will you fight, or will you perish like a dog?

>>280085063

>they tell him to get rid of Guts
>Daiba takes Guts to a stupa
A bunch of trolls got killed, Schierke is adventuring as an astral projection to scout out Falconia and find Caska, Puck is Puck again, Farnese is actually useful in a fight and that's about it.
Isma disappeared along with Elfhelm

>>280086306
He doesn't like watching Guts in that state

>>280084860
So how the fuck is he gonna fight apostles without anything there?

>>280086956
>Puck is Puck again
good

going to wait until they get closer to an ending though, seems like it's just plodding along rn

So what happens next?
Is Skull Night gonna show up again to give Guts a pep talk again?
How long does this depression arc have to drag out?
Just tell Guts how to kill Griffith already.

>>280084716
look at him go!

>>280087112
Guts is going to integrate his jungian shadow (the dog) and then he's going to come out a whole person again. They fixed Caska's trauma but nobody ever did shit for Guts so he needs this

>>280087112
it's Puck's time to shine. He will save our Guts.

>>280087382
Post the rest of the calendar pls

Why doesn't Puck have a penis?

>>280087440
Elves reproduce via ADULT ATTACK

>>280087014
Who said anything about apostles? They're just sealing him in so he doesn't draw any more of them to the capital. They're leaving him to die, not giving him a power up or something.

>>280084811
What a tsundere

>>280087112
>just kill God bro

I doubt Puck can do anything to get him out. Either Guts is carrying the behelit and it activates, or the beast of darkness is unleashed. Another possibility is Silat helping out. Can't tell if the tree will play a role, but it seems to be magical. Maybe the witches get involved, we'll see.

If you didn't want Mori to do this, you shouldn't have died.

>>280087112
This is the part of the story where Guts converts to Buddhism

>>280087638
It's a stupa, it's supposed to contain the relic of a Buddha. Which can do a range of things from animating and talking to people to curing illnesses and doing miracles when ingested.
Besides
>Guts has nothing to sacrifice inside the tomb
>his schizo hallucination isn't gonna do shit
>it's probably at least apostle-proof if they chose it specifically for him
>Silat doesn't care, can't open the tomb and won't betray the Kushans for Guts
>Isekai party probably can't opem the tomb anyway and can't fight the Kushans to free Guts
The big question is what's gonna happen between guts and what's inside the tomb. I think this is his big spiritual healing moment that "frees" him from the eclipse, at least mentally, maybe his mark could get healed or some other physical healing could happen in addition to that but we'll see.

>>280086306
He thinks Guts has lost his warrior's mentality and given up his duty, he still remembers him as a soldier, not a PTSD murderhobo fighting against God.

>>280084636 (OP)
Please give him 1 (ONE) power up

>>280084811
Alright so Silat is our ""hero"" for the foreseeable future. Probably for the next five or so years until Guts gets out of the gay hyperbolic time chamber.

Initially I tried to give Studio Gaga the benefit of the doubt but this is fucking dogshit. There hasn't been a single chapter they've done that has impressed me. There's no chance they finish this series. We still have every single member of the God Hand to take down, as well as all the apostles in the new Band of Hawk. Since they're allergic to drawing actual fights, don't be surprised if they call it quits before the story goes anywhere.

>>280088329
Did you somehow expect they'd just start killing Godhand members each new chapter?

>>280088404
Obviously not but at this pace with how the story is being handled and their refusal to draw action scenes I don't see how you can be optimistic.

>>280084896

>>280084860
>>280084811
This is retarded, it only took the little field trip for his body to regain volume.
Have him do some laps around the stupa to recover his warrior spirit.

>>280088329
Is this your first manga? Do you really think Silat of all people just becomes the main character and Guts sits in the tomb forever?

>>280089146
I think him looking weak and atrophied was just the artists fucking up.

>>280089219
Yeah everyone looks tall and skinny, but last chapter guts looked emaciated, now it's better. Also everyone looks the same height as him sometimes but they're slowly figuring it out. Is it me or did Silat turn into a twink in this chapter in particular?

>>280088329
Why do you think all God Hands are going to be dealt with to begin with?

So much samefagging in this thread...

Here's an acute post from Skull Knight
>They've telegraphed the answer by sequestering Schierke this entire time. When she returns, she'll hold the answers to move the story forward. The answer? She has a message for Guts from Casca. And the group will fight through Daiba and his goons (needlessly, so we can have a fight), and Schierke will bang on the door, saying Casca has something she wants to say to Guts. And inside, Guts hears it, and will open his eyes, and say "Well what are we waiting for...?" And then we'll be on our way.

Hokuto no ken inspired

>>280087368
either this, or the dog will completely overtake Gut's body, and he will turn into an absolutely ruthless killing machine that makes his "berserker armor form" look like a cuck, and likely accidentally kill someone he loved who happened to be in the way

Guts looks like everything is going according to plan.

Wow that really was fucking something, also considering Guts returns essentially like 3 chapters later anyway. Couldn't Miura find a better way to portray this instead of rushing it and half hassing it to quickly reach the whole drama that led to the eclipse?

>>280084636 (OP)
i'm at the stage of apathy, i'm not even sure what the point of this dogshit actually is

they are taking longer than miura
the art is fucking horrendous
the episodes are completely pointless
there is basically no text and the paneling, composition and pacing are crap
and most importantly they have no clue what they are doing, they retconned 30 years of miuras work and have no grasp of the characters, like even if you have no idea where you're going at the very least i'd expect you to get the characters right, i mean they worked with miura for ages and yet it's like no one there ever read berserk... sometimes i wonder whether they even got an editor looking at this shit, it's fucking awful

i wish they'd just cancel it and give me the cliff notes on where that retard mori thinks berserk was going to go

>dead thread
>retards unironically thought people would stay interested just because some retard claimed to have cliff notes to continnue miura's vision

Frankly I think it looks good. It's not Miura but it's close. And even if you disagree with where the story is going, at least something is happening. Miura spent 25 years shading one page until his heart exploded.

>>280084860
at last, he has reached the berserk factory

Skyward Sword aah shit

You just know if Miura was alive, this whole scene would be nothing but chestnut Puck gags of him talking to Isidro, him scheming to take Daiba hostage.

>>280104547
The biggest distinction from Miura is no nore double spread pages of beautiful scenery. Made to take a momentary pause in the story to breathe in the moment and value its importance is absent.

>>280084636 (OP)
I'm going to be honest: I haven't given a shit about Berserk since he got on that boat, pretty much.
Even before Miura died, the series was a zombie. It's not worth reading anymore. What the fuck is even happening in it anymore?

>>280106500
Guts got cucked again.
Casca got kidnapped again.
Reset to status quo.

>>280091226
Isidro is BASED and his chapters are the BEST

>>280106616
Ok Miura's invoked spirit.

>>280087368
Is he safe in the tomb? Seems like if the brand attracts any shadow demons who could appear inside the tomb and try to kill him he would be defenseless. Or I guess since the brand was sealed there's no risk of that at all? How boring. The whole heart of Berserk is that Guts has to accomplish his goals while being endlessly hunted at night and unable to sleep.

>>280106893
>The whole heart of Berserk is that Guts has to accomplish his goals while being endlessly hunted at night and unable to sleep
That stopped being a thing decades ago.

>>280108068
Partly because he has companions to watch his back and partly because he has been powercrept so much that basic autospawn darkness minions and ghouls are no real threat to him (with his weapons). Without all that and especially in this depressed state he should be at a big risk but again, the brand has been retconned into being a fashion statement that only sort of cares if the Godhand themselves are right next to you in which case I guess it stings a little
How far we've come from Black Swordsman and Golden Age

https://youtu.be/7m9nE_70YPI?t=14

Just saying.
Berserk started in 1989; this is the 36th year since it's release. Even if Miura stayed alive and followed release schedule, the manga would only be on chapter 432 by now. We are on chapter 382, so at worst a year behind schedule. How is it everyone's screeching about the hiatuses all the time?

>>280110511
Doomposting is this place's pastime regardless of board

Because this is supposed to be the abridged version of the final arcs and it's crushingly slow anyway.

>>280084687
Fucking love these Deva-Looking Motherfuckers.

>>280110511
Young Animal is a fortnightly magazine, not a monthly one. So it would be double what you said if it came out every issue. The pacing also doesn't make any sense for the large scale of the manga. Even now where things seem to have sped up a bit (outside of this new chapter).

>>280110963
But berserk was always monthly, not bi-monthly.

Thanks for dumping. So, any chances of Guts falling into deep despair and the Behelit activating? Where even is the Behelit anyways? guess I need to reread again

Doggo of Darkness time.

>>280084636 (OP)
I have a theory.
I think they really do have an outline of how the story is going to go, but (obviously) they don't have dialogue to go with it.
Hence why no-one talks all that much any more. They can't get the rhythm of the characters down, and obviously Miura never wrote dialogue for them, so there's a lot of non-verbal exposition.

>>280088329
If you for a second thought this was going to be a story where guts hunts down each member of the godhand you severely misunderstood.
Skullknight did that, and it has taken him 1,000 years and he still hasnt killed them all.
Guts was only ever going to kill Griffith, if anything.

>>280104547
This IS the cliff notes of where Mori thinks Bersek was going to go.
That is why the dialogue is sparse and only what needs to be said.
They are also going way faster than Miura was. You are you being a tard.

>>280090403
I think it'd b e funny if Griffith was annoyed Guts wasn't doing anything and broke him out just to get Guts to chase after him again.

>>280084860
Inside how Miura's assistants felt when he died

>>280084860
>What if Guts was TRAPPED and BETRAYED in the hyperbolic tree chamber

I'm supposed to believe Miura wanted this?

Just release the notepad file or whatever explains the rest of the story
I'd rather just imagine it at this point

Nobody cares about his assistants' headcanons
>But at least we're getting an ending!
Thanks for announcing you're a slop eater

>>280104547
>taking longer than miura
Factually incorrect

>>280103489
The point is that he didn't actually gain any new understandings by leaving the Hawks. You can see the cringe on Judeau's face when he asks if Guts found his purpose and Guts said something like yeah I guess.

>>280114293
What is it that you want from Robert E. Howard concerning the Conan the Barbarian series?

>we will get this cliff notes dialogue-anemic shitty version of the next guts/casca encounter
>of the final guts griffith encounter
>of the next skull knight encounter
>if we even get those at all
We already didn't get a Rickert/Guts reunion just now, hello? Did they forget that those two know each other? No fucking way Rickert would let them lock Guts in the cuck tree, he would sooner die.
This shit is so fucked, I'd rather they didn't even bother. I won't go so far as to say it dishonors Miura or Berserk, because as people have pointed out, there are several weak points even within the original. But this is fucked. I'm going to go reread starting from Conviction, will probably stop after Falconia.

>>280106893
The tomb may count as "holy ground".

>>280113458
4 of the godhand members that destroyed Gaiseric's kingdom are gone, only Void remains at this point. Guts will deal with Femto and Skull Knight will deal with Void, the other 3 are mostly irrelevant.

>>280084860
>>280084873
Here's hoping

Im kinda sure miura would have wanted to not die instead of this

>>280087112
Guts tames the beast of darkness after a great internal struggle. By acomplishing this he obtains full control of the berserker armour and becomes able to eat apostles for breakfast(including named ones like Zodd). He also becomes able to bitchslap Griffith like Rickert did, but using the Dragonslayer for extra oomph.

I feel like a retard, but the lack of dialogue is making me very confused about the story. I dont understand why Silat is mad, he has never before behaved in such a way as to imply he cares about Guts' mental state or "pride as a warrior" or whatever the fuck. Old Silat probably would have just taken the opportunity to slice Guts' neck.
Then Daiba is all gung-ho about rushing Guts into the tree, is he an enemy? They fought before but he was starting to respect western magic, and he was hanging out with Rickert, I assumed when they fled Falconia that he would be a straight up ally the next time we met them.
Is the tree meant to kill Guts? Seal him? Heal him? Is this something they use often or did they just happen upon it, and even they barely know what it will do? Are they afraid of Guts? Why wouldn't they consider using him or even talking to him to see if he's down to help fight Falconia?

>>280114222
Lmao

>>280114904
The Dragonslayer has already proven itself by cutting a single hair on Griffith's head. Guts just needs to up the power.

>>280114949
Daiba was clearly manipulating the Kushan bigwigs into thinking Guts is a threat so they'd hand him over to him. A Stupa is a Buddhist holy building, chances are Daiba's planning on fixing whatever wrong with Guts on the inside through some eastern spirituality woowoo.

>>280084636 (OP)
I havent read berserk since Miura died but i thought Guts's body was basically fucked without his magic armor. How is he fine here?

>>280115312
>fucked without his magic armor
No? Where did you get this idea?

>>280115320
I remember it being stated that the berserker armor was both breaking his body and also the only thing holding it together.

>>280115347
When he's using it, yes. But every time he took it off the fairies healed him.

>>280115347
I don't blame you for thinking this. Miura went to the well of "whoa like, guts is totally fucking HAMBURGER under that armor, look at these gallons of blood he lost, he's FUCKED" so many times it lost all meaning
I think they said this once or twice, but at the very least Elfhelm seems to have restored him to full
I'm surprised he didn't heal his arm and eye, why not? Because his look is too iconic? He lost those at the start of all this demon shit, in the Eclipse, no reason other wounds heal and those didn't

Stuck inside of a tree arc. 2 years minimum.

>>280116607
Like the cicada, Guts will emerge 17 years later

>>280084860
I'm sure leaving Guts alone, at his lowest, in a dark tomb with nothing but his thoughts, the beast of darkness and the ever present Checkov's Gun of the Behelit still in play will be a good idea.

>>280117026
You just don't understand Daiba's 4-D chess

Why the FUCK did Miura had to die in the climax of the fucking Elfheim arc. Worst timing.

>>280087751
You're right, it's most likely a healing moment.

Can someone explain why Griffith had to abduct Casca? He certainly didn't give a shit back in the Hill of Swords. Is it to keep her close when he becomes morphs back into Moonlight Boy?

>>280084664
https://youtu.be/9TRemrRaPjc?feature=shared

>>280087112
As some of the anons mentioned, a Stupa is basically a buddhist holy ground. It's probably Daiba's plan to 'fix' Guts with some eastern spirituality shit like "Becoming one with the rage" and in Guts' case, it's the beast of darkness. He certainly needs that power up.

There's a reason why he's an undead schizo, it's because he's been consumed by a futile, sisyphean struggle.

He always gave a shit. He only cares about being above everyone, about being on top of the food chain and worshipped by everyone. Even in the Golden Age arc, everytime someone is about to move on from his dream he seethes and tries to stop them.
The apex of this is the eclipse. He never needed to rape casca and make guts watch, but he did it to break them mentally, so in a twisted way he could prove to himself they could never move on and be their own persons without him.
For the rest of the series he's happy as long as Guts and Casca are mentally broken PTSD hobos.
The very moment they look like they might start to heal and live their own lives again he kidnaps Casca just to fuck with them, like the narcisist queer he is, because above all he never wants them to be free, even if it means having them gun against him.

because the Moonboy always goes to where Casca is, and Moonboy is a weakness of Griffith. Keeping Casca in his fortress means he doesn't have to worry about his other half meandering through buttfuck nowhere and possibly getting killed

>>280117572
for the same reason they do anything in nuserk, because the team has no idea what to do with her or anyone really

>>280117967
Yeah. I think that for practicality reasons, he does have to be near Casca if he transforms back to Moonboy again.
>Guts and Casca's son is Griffith's weakness
Poetic.
>>280117931
>The very moment they look like they might start to heal and live their own lives again he kidnaps Casca just to fuck with them, like the narcisist queer he is, because above all he never wants them to be free, even if it means having them gun against him.
I never thought of it like that. Casca was still a mindbroken in the Hill of Swords after all so I guess he "Didn't give a shit" (He did not need to intervene) in a way. Since Casca recovered her memories, then he had to fuck with Casca and Guts again.

>>280117697
>>280117714
>>280117714
I'm glad Miura ended with moments of charm like this instead of that garbage

>>280118173
How is Guts able to survive outside hos berserker armor?

>>280117433
The last Miura chapter is a decent open ending, actually.

>>280084636 (OP)
How do you feel that chestnut puck will never appear again?

>>280118341
>decent open ending
>decent
>open ending
lol lmao

>>280118403
Thank you Jesus

>>280084860
This was not worth all the centuries of waiting. Shit ending.

>>280118446
>Shit ending
Nigga what

>>280084860
This is how Dark Souls 2 ends, more or less.

>>280117572
Because Casca is his property and he wants her. Remember Griffith's entire thing during Golden Age essentially being that the Band were his own personal property and he decides what he's doing with them.

>>280117737
I like the pacing. If Miura were still writing Berserk then Chapter 382 would be the team just arriving in the Kushan capitol

>>280088329
>>280088404
>>280088546
Void will sacrifice the rest of the godhand for power shenanigans

>>280118292
Probably in a lot of pain and in need of recover. I think the timeline needs to be considered. Since getting the Berserker Armour...
>Nearly died fighting the Apostles and Grunbeld
>A month's recovery where he was still travelling every day and living off soup
>Opened all his old injuries fighting alligators using the armour
>4-5 days travel to Vritanis
>A night in a bed
>Hour long fight with Daiba and Ganeshka using the armour
>Couple of days rest in a boat one of which he nearly drowned
>Body and armour pushed to it's limit fighting Cthulu
>Another couple of days rest on a boat
>Travelling through Elfhelm part of which involves the armour being triggered at max capacity for the blood memory
>Another day or twos rest
>Casca kidnapped and spirit destroyed
>2-3 days in a cell with very little food
>A half days walk through wilderness
In actuality, he's probably had the armour for like 45-60 days, and he's really only gotten 35 days rest out of that. The wounds from the Ganeshka and Sea God fight are probably still fresh.

>>280084873
I think Schierke is about to comeback and help Guts to heal mentally, like they did it to Casca.

Remember when Mori said Berserk would take at least 10 years to end about 2 years ago?

>>280118446
It would be better if it ended here than whatever these dimwits are going to cook.

>still no naked lolis
It's over

>>280119088
Shit, with all the fighting, exposition and chestnut puck distracting me I completely lost track of time.
I would look like a chemio patient too after all of that.

>>280098983
Don't worry, in terms of actual chapters, there aren't that many after that

>>280119412
Yeah homies fucked beyond belief

>>280119412
Even in that picture he's still got the graizes from the Ganeshka fight

>>280084823
he's sealing away a Mark of Sacrifice piece of shit, from his point of view. Hopefully the spooky night goblins will only spawn in the stupa and leave everyone else alone.

>>280111450
Look at the hiatus charts that were made. It did at times come out in each issue.

>>280113048
Kushans took his equipment away, including his satchel with the Behelit inside. And we're talking about Guts, no way in hell he'd use the thing. Again, the Stupa is gonna help him heal mentally. If you think about it it's something that *never* happened before in the manga: the plot was always about trying to kill Griffith or trying to heal Casca, but Guts himself has always been barely holding it together. Actually focusing on his mental well being for once and him leaving the tomb reinvigorated might be the best thing that happened to him in years.

>>280084823
He's called the Struggler. Dude didn't struggle.

>>280120997
sometimes the hardest struggle is resisting the urge to struggle

>>280117931
>kills four godhand members
Never happened. Why the hell would the Godhand be presented like they are if Skull Knight apparently managed to kill FOUR of them already? There's only five fingers in a hand, it's much more plausible that when a new member is formed the oldest one disappears. So back in Gaiseric's time Void was the newest member, nowadays Femto is and Void is the oldest. Simple as.
The real question would be, what happens to a Godhand member once their time is up? We know what happens to Apostles, and it ain't pretty. Is it so much worse as a head honcho?

>>280114293
It took Miura dying for Puck to become a character again and not just a background joke with zero story relevance that turns into Yoda every now and then

>>280114949
What's weird about Silat knowing Guts is an unstoppable behemoth of a warrior man they need to fight against Griffith, hoping for that, but he gets a depressed dude that sits in a cell waiting to be killed by Rakshas? Griffith is marching East, the Kushans are preparing to go to war with Falconia. He has no time for babysitting, and has been how long since he last saw Guts? Months at the very least in-universe? From his point of view, if he doesn't wanna fight he might as well sit back and not cause any problems especially after Daiba stated his brand is what attracts monsters. He's just being tsundere.

>>280121080
Because as I said it's futile, it's like trying to kill someone by tearing off their fingernails. Around the same time we see the behelit sword which probably is what he used to do it.
You'd think we would see the previous index finger disappear when falco is appointed if that was the case.

>>280121255
*femto, this fag has too many fursonas

>>280121255
You still haven't argued how the story has implied at any point that Skull Knight has managed to fucking KILL GODHEAD MEMBERS. Is it more plausible that we don't know what happened to the old deities (which weren't presented in the story until four and a half years ago) or that Skull Bro had killed four gods all along and he never even implied such a feat, fighting Void and 'training' Guts as if the battle had been at a stalemate for a millennia? You're basically saying the Guts of his time has killed four Femtos. It's wild. It throws the powerlevel out the window and there's zero proof or ground work for it.

>>280086956
>Isma got deleted because of REASONS
I'm still pissed

>>280117026
>>280087751

>>280121447
>>280086956
Yeah it's fucking bullshit. The disappearance of astral beings seems so fucking arbitrary since Puck and Ivalera remained yet Isma, who just recently found her astral powers, was also included. It just doesn't make any sense if those who disappeared are far more 'connected' to the astral world.

>>280121359
You are seeing King Gaesric memories which from his armor and backstory is heavily implied to be skull knight.
He's also been turned into an undead by the armor and we are shown around the same time he has a sword made of behelits (you know, the reality-bending artifacts).
It is said and shown several times Guts will lose himself or do unfixable damage to his body if he keeps the armor.
The picture is pretty clear to me. Skull Knight has been crusading against the God Hand for who knows how much time in a hopeless quest for revenge.
If you are disappointed about the "powerlevel", well, they are evil deities empowered by fate, it's not a fair fight. And even if you kill them, they just make new ones, as I said, so it doesn't really matter, though you might believe you did something and you can fight against this evil destiny (reminds you of something, right?).
As for how you really fight against the God Hand, I imagine you go for the heart. Who knows how that works.
It's a more interesting theory than just assuming it's an internship position and they get rid of you when they find another grunt, if you ask me.

Why do the autists from SkullKnight.net act like such redditors? Legit complaining about stuff that, if they had been made 1:1 by Miura, they'd be sucking off

>>280121447
Isma got deleted because Miura left no notes about her whatsoever. It kinda proves he creates her to make writing the boat arc more bearable.

>>280121512
I feel like I'm talking with an ESL, holy shit. Skull Knight hasn't killed any Godhand member, enjoy the (You)

>>280121512
Gaiseric used the Behelit, that's why he's trapped in a forever crusade against his own fate

>>280121574
It's amazing that as vitriolic as /a/ might sometimes get about Mori!Berserk they don't hold a candle to the level of autistic hatred the autistic parasocial "fans" of Berserk have on sk.net. They treat every new chapter like they're seeing their parents getting fucked in front of them, even if they're innocuous or like you say do things that Miura himself would've done. I am half eager to see Berserk get finished merely to spite these retards. Like imagine being worse than r*ddit, holy shit.

>>280119006
If Miura was still writing it, we'd have a completely different plot. There's so much buildup and so many characters from the island that were just dropped.

>>280117680
so is he nepal right now? was miura a buddhist?

>>280122419
Buddhism is ingrained in Japanese culture

>>280115418
Maybe because they completely healed over it's just no longer considered an injury.

>>280121638
No arguments, just pure seething, thread after thread.
It's okay though, with every raid you show us more and more how little substance there is to you and what a perpetually butthurt manchild you really are.

>>280122244
Miura said the Elfhelm arc was "about to end" before he croaked though. I don't doubt Griffith fucking over elf island was intended, but I do think little details like Isma not disappearing would've been different and she was dropped because let's be honest, who the FUCK knows what to do with her? Guts' party should've never been bigger than Casca, Schierke, Farnese, Serpico and Isidro. Maybe Roderick for a time. Isma? Fucking Azan? It bloated too much. Too many characters, not enough plot development.

>>280122594
i would've expected more east asian references earlier in the story considering this a story about humanity which includes them as well, and miura is a nip. The godhand is very european which i get for story reasons, but you'd at least expect some chinese mythical godhand members. the old godhand is very mediterranean pagan but nothing else and i wonder why.

>>280122929
What the hell kind of schizo shit are you randomly talking about now, are you off your meds? Are you mad because your incoherent ESL ramblings about your Skull Knight fanfic about him totally having killed 4 gods previously and it just never being brought up or even alluded to aren't treated seriously? What 'seething butthurt manchild' are you referring to? Do you have a board archnemesis? Are you alright?

>>280123048
Wouldn't be a Berserk thread without a resident schizo

Where are the notes? I wanna see pictures

>>280084873
>has Guts accepted death?

Holy shit I can’t wait for the next 10 chapters to get the answer to this question!

I feel like they should just do a Vagabond and have an art collection where they write out a loose outline of the ending where we can all move on with our lives

>>280085063
Trvth nuke

>>280122244
>we'd have a completely different plot
Maybe for Isma. The rest would have played out the same.

Holy shit, this fucking SUCKS. The art looks NOTHING like Miura's. I'm shocked as I just caught up to all the new chapters. What the fuck is wrong with the anatomy? Why are everyone's arms so long? Why is no one speaking? Why are the indians suddenly the heroes of the story while our actual hero is constantly cucked or out of commission?

>>280101613
We are too far in the story for Guts to have a "oh no I went Berserk(tm) and killed a friend!" arc.

>>280090403

>yfw this will just be the equivalent of the hyperbolic time chamber

>>280126225
I am also from that timeline. I need to go back.

Kinda makes sense that people who preferred fanfiction over Berserk in the first place would prefer fanfiction over Miura's berserk

She got deleted so we'll have punished Isidro. Trust the plan.

>>280123724
lmfao

>>280121621
Miura left no notes whatsoever, this whole thing is based on Mori's recollections about a pre-eclipse discussion where Miura used him as a sounding board for where to take the story. That's probably why Guts went insane over his sword failing him rather than Griffith stealing Casca, it's based on some ancient rough outline. The actual story took a different direction cuz he was a winger rather than a planner.

>>280117697
>>280117714
>>280118173
>>280117729
Miura's art still had soul in it. Does the new team draw any funny faces?

>>280129054
I think only Miura knew how and when to do the cringe faces. The team will just finish the story outline and thats it.

gut is going to get his dick sucked by a fantasy islamic ghost and that will cure him of the curse

o let me tell you exactly what's gonna happen.
>Guts goes on vision quest/hallucination while sealed in.
>The Evil Dog or whatever it's name is appears before him and is all "We're not so different you and I/You can only get revenge on Griffith by killing your friends/lol be evil it's fun".

>>280084773
Wait, the Bakiraka weren’t even meant to be there, so who was going to open the doors without them? This is such a retarded fucking fanfic. I hope sales plummet and Hakusensha are forced to can it.

>>280130399

>>280131035
But it clearly took the Bakiraka a lot of effort to open it, so I doubt those pissants would be able to.

This is really the only panel you need to read when thinking of the Continuation. It’s so fucking meta that I can’t believe Mori ignored it.

>>280119407
that's a good thing though

>>280131185
If anything required tapasa they wouldn't have any stone building.

>>280131970
Damn

Have they been using AI art for this and then just touching it up?

>>280128815
was it in Miura's will or something that Mori should take over? No way is he writing the story right, I've just finished reading the prequel to Suicide Island, the plot is dogshit, just retreading the same story beats and character themes as Holyland.

>>280127986
>timeskip Isidro

I want to believe this.

>>280087695
Mori was his best friend though, I think Miura knew what he was getting when handing him over the reins

>>280132758
>handing him over the reins
...by dying?

>>280132476
I vaguely recall from an interview when this was all announced that they at least considered it.

>>280131970
The way I see it is Berserk ended with the story incomplete, I don't mind stopping there, but figuring out my own headcanon for how the story continues and ends can be fun. If Mori and his team's published headcanon has some cool ideas and a satisfying ending, I'll be open minded about it.

>>280132476
They'd get much better results if they did. AI can do crazy stuff now.

>>280132794
Miura knew exactly what he was doing by dying like that anon...

here is your BerSAARk

>>280132717
If he had a will no one's mentioned it, his death was sudden and you don't expect to die in your 50s. The continuation seemed like Mori's idea, but his actual role is hands-off. He sounds more like a glorified creative consultant than anything, attending some meetings between himself, the assistants and Hakusensha.

>>280133451
yeah I've been looking into it since I posted and I agree, even from what Mori himself has put out on social media it sounds like Studio Gaga is doing most of the work while relying on him to provide plot structure.

If I was inclined to research this I'd look into the dates of certain statements to see if they predate Miura's death. It's for sure confirmed they were long-time friends and collaborators in the sense that they helped each other out with manga (damn does this mean Miura in some sense is responsible for Suicide Island, Destroy and Revolution?), but maybe Mori played into that to make up that Miura had already fixed his sights on a definite ending before he died. I tried to see what Mori's money side of this would be but obviously it wouldn't just be out there.

>>280084636 (OP)

Guts looks like he is falling asleep here

>Fantasia Arc started in 2009
>we're in 2025

>>280132717
>No way is he writing the story right, I've just finished reading the prequel to Suicide Island, the plot is dogshit, just retreading the same story beats and character themes as Holyland.
He is totally overrated as a writer. Holyland was solid, Suicide Island was okay, but everything else is pretty crap
Even Sousei no Taiga, a story about time travel and cavemen, is now just a boring "muh racism!" cuckery
tldr: Not surprised Berserk is now sucking

>>280133451
I do think depressed Guts was Mori's stupid idea. His Holyland MC was also a depressed moron.

>>280132758
>I think Miura knew what he was getting when handing him over the reins
im tired of retards saying this, he never gave him the reins of anything, they just were hanging out and he mentioned ideas he might or might never use in the story, mori has no idea whats the end goal of the story

>>280135192
you are a retarded idiot

>>280126030
>December 2021
No, that was not me. If I check out the page and dislike their written discussion why would I subject myself to their podcast?

>>280135166
>Holyland was solid, Suicide Island was okay, but everything else is pretty crap
I've read almost all Mori's done (waiting on a translator for the rest), completely agree. It's like his growth completely stopped at Holyland somehow. I've heard he gets decent sales though. Taiga in particular was disappointing to me because it so quickly became Suicide Island but in the past. Mori has too much of a lecturing side to his manga to really get anywhere imo.

>>280135208
thanks for the thoughtful and measured rebuttal

>>280118613
>IS THAT A FUCKING DARK SOULS 2 REFERENCE
We have come more full circle than I could have ever imagined

>>280135192
>he mentioned ideas he might or might never use in the story
Mori said Miura told him the story over and over again. Also >>280135208

Can this shit get nipped in the bud already so all the smug Miura haters fall flat on their asses now that they have to resort to resuming writing their own fanfic "endings"?

>>280084860
No, but seriously. How'd they close the door on him?

So is Berserk now coming out more consistently? I want to see Griffith and Riboku die within my lifetime, I sorta have confidence in Kingdoms mangaka to at least have Shin chop him in half eventually even if he has to stroke Reeboks dick the entire time, but judging from the moon kid and the bits and pieces I’ve seen of berserk since Griffith stole Casca again I feel like this new guy is going to continue on with what (I think) Miura was going to do and have it end in any way other than Guts slaying Griffith and the God Hand.

>>280132758
I trust Mori to do his best and tell roughly the story Miura was going to.
I just wish he could write some fucking dialogue.

>>280087751
>what's inside the tomb
"Only what you take with you".
This is Miura/Mori doing a riff on Star Wars again(and Lucas in turn using much older ideas).
This is the scene where Luke goes under the tree on Dagobah.

I want a comfy stupa to rot into.

>>280137486
>impressive answer
It's a holy place, so it has some passive magic that lets it do stuff like seal itself shut
>more ordinary answer
Maybe it's built on an incline, and part of the reasons Silat's musclemen struggled so hard is because they were pushing uphill.

>>280138511
Sounds good to me

>>280106431
Miura did an excellent job in demonstrating a massive, careless world that the viewer and Guts are so small and insignificant in. But I mostly loved the volume and the grim existence in his spreads

>>280134306
Just like the reader!

I have no memory of what happened before this. The last thing i remember is casca unretarding and the former twink slapping griffith

>>280140522
They fought trolls

>>280106431
>>280139718
you pretentious motherfuckers pile on each other
and make a mountain of faggotry.

That'd be fine for a weekly or bi-weekly manga,
but not for a who-knows-what-frequency of release with occasional breaks.

>>280084687
Did anyone teach these people what composition is?

They probably got some art amateurs to focus on copying Miura's style
and forget about fundamentals.

It's like when people think that by Toyotaro being able to copy Toriyama's character style
he'd somehow magically get Toriyama's character design skills. That's sad.

>>280142834
>some art amateurs
These are the people who have been working as Miura's assistants, obviously Miura did all the composition work himself

>>280117572
>Can someone explain why Griffith had to abduct Casca?
I thought it was pretty clear. Griffith still feels longing towards the members of the band. It was his sacrifice so he must have felt like they were a part of him. He loved them. He still loves guts or he'd be dead already. He's fucked in the head, the eclipse was meant to erase his feelings but because two sacrifices survived he can't help it.

>>280088329
If this were Miura you'd be sucking off the art and pacing

Spoiler - Miura didn't draw much of the last 25 chapters while he was alive. He storyboarded.

>>280087440
He probably does. They just don't show it.

Reminder that Griffith canonically has never shown sausage, so he might as well be a eunuch too.

>>280086956
>>Silatt seemingly kills Rakshas (not really though)
Why say that? Certainly looked like a concise death

>>280130399
I think you need to consider a few things - most of the cast doesn't know what the Godhand is. They don't really know what's happened with the world. They don't know about Falconia. We as readers know all this, but consider the party's plans since the beginning of Millennium Falcon
>We want to go to Elfhelm to cure Casca's mind
>Something bad happens
>They're now stranded
I don't recall Guts ever been shown talking about the Godhand with anyone but Puck, Skull Knight and Flora. And even with the conversation with Puck he didn't elaborate. Golden Age itself wasn't an expository flashback, it was a reader only flashback. Isidro doesn't even know Guts was in the Band of the Hawk, he never talked about it. The entire purpose of the past 2 months or so in universe was to fix Casca, avoid demons. That's it. Schierke, who has actually been in Guts' mind, didn't even know what Griffith was or how he related to Guts during the Elfhelm invasion.

Unless Guts has spoken about the Brand, Eclipse, Godhand and Apostles all off screen then there's a lot of exposition due to the party to set the plan forward. I imagine at some point Guts, Rickert and Silat will need to sit down and discuss Griffith and what Rickert knows from the 3 days he spent in Falconia.

>>280135056
>We've only just started the third act of Fantasia and there's still another arc due after this
Strugglers gonna struggle

Why did Miura sign off on Berserk 2016?

It doesn't adapt Black Swordsman arc or Conviction arc as a standalone, it cuts many key scenes, and is just a shitshow

>>280144002
Berserk 2016 was initially planned to contain a lot more but it needed to be recut a few months before release. They designed the trailers as stand alone then worked on the arc. It's an absolute mess.

One of the weirder adaptations I've ever seen now I think of it. It simultaneously expects you to read the manga to ascertain plot details while also changing and refusing to acknowledge continuity. The whole point of pre-conviction Guts is that he was a walking death wish that was softened by the events of Lost Children. The anime doesn't even explain key parts of Casca and Guts relationship.

>>280144029
>The anime doesn't even explain key parts of Casca and Guts relationship.

It was clearly intended to be a sequel to the Golden Age movies, but they completely skipped

>Snake Lord guy
>The Count / Guardians of Desire
>Lost Children chapters (understandable)
>The Dog Apostle (first Apostle that Guts takes out post-Eclipse) gets a new anime-only segment which is merged with Conviction
>Skips the Moonlight Boy

>>280144087
They skipped Ganeshka as well. I understand that he doesn't really show up until Vritanis but there's a lot of side stuff with Griffith that they needed to show given they thought they were getting a third season.

>>280144087
The Golden Age Trilogy has its own problems too, to be fair. I wish they'd just commit to adapting the entire thing. Something I really didn't like in Golden Age Trilogy was there's no explanation for why Guts doesn't have his sword in the Eclipse. Berserk 1997 does the same thing. He's got a symbiotic relationship with his sword which is climaxing in the manga right now. The thought that he'd just straight up leave it behind or not have it on him is just really weird.

In the Manga he breaks the sword killing Wyald and he intends to get a new greatsword after the reuniting with the Band of the Hawk. It's one of these weird little details that ages both 1997 and Golden Age Trilogy.

Didn't Miura retcon these

>>280143859
> Spoiler - Miura didn't draw much of the last 25 chapters while he was alive. He storyboarded.

This isn’t true. For years he has been trying to get his assistants more involved (even created a side manga for them to work on because he couldn’t trust them with Berserk), and he still ended up doing 90% of the work because these guys suck so bad.

>>280143884
Because he already came back from his "death" in Falconia, and he was even suprised that he was still alive. So we can expect him to somehow return again, at least until Silat finds a truly permanent way to kill him.

Anything other than the golden age arch shouldn't exist.

>>280121255
I genuinely can't understand how Guts can beat Griffith/Femto without some Deus Ex Machina, contrived bullshit or blatant ass pull even if Miura was alive and still doing the manga.

Unless Miura wrote down some genius thing that was foreshadowed a long time ago when it happens all Berserk threads will be even more unusable that they are now.

The old rules don't apply as the new team somehow knows nothing about Berserk. Rakshas was made of liquid shadow and now he's dead.

Nothing's off the table for Guts either. He could fuse with the beast, use a beherit, find a new Godslayer sword...

It doesn’t have to be contrived, it’s fucking obvious that Miura was planning to reveal that Griffith can’t kill Guts because either he sees him as his one and true friend or two because MB is too strong for him. Best he can do is throw apostles at Guts which will get chewed up.

Griffith, and the God-Hand for that matter, are defeated by getting pulled into the Void, not through a physical fight.

>>280153611
This bitch was so hot in conviction. Instantly became lame and lost all sex appeal once she cut her hair, though.

>>280151200
The Idea of Evil is powered by negative emotion and 9/10s of the remaining population is in Falconia.

There will be a massive change in public opinion which depowers it. Alternatively Griffith will be killed in the Moonlight Boy form

ATTENTION ALL BERSERK FANS
For anyone interested in how the story ends, check out BLOOD REIGN : CURSE OF THE YOMA.
Has a Guts vs Griffith dynamic, it's only 3 episodes and worth watching imho.

>>280087751
He's going to have to choose letting a future with Casca go to get the power to defeat Griffith

>>280158999
The Idea of Evil is powered by people wanting a reason for suffering not fucking negative emotion dumbass. The distinction is important, this isn't Persona where you can magically change people's collective will of reasoning why suffering exists through the power of friendship or some bullshit.

If that happened it's literally hack tier writing. Would be like trying to kill the abstract embodiment of death.

>>280113048
He's depressed but no deep despair to be seen. Would really suck if he sacrificed Isidoro, Farnese, Shrieke and Squint Eyes because that would make him the bad guy. After all of this shit we really don't need that.
>>280129054
Soul perhaps, but with SHITiura nothing happened for 15 years, they just kept sailing in circles over the wast sea fighting Pirates of the Carribeban. I'd rather have a broody serious manga where shit happens then any more lolicon and Isidoro shenanigans that just distracts from any main plot progress.

>>280130399

This is so bad, Miura would love it. Thank God he's dead and more competent people are writing the manga now.

Man it always feels weird, I might actually see the ending before I die.

He looked up to Guts and saw him stand there like a bitch waiting for death.
I'd feel pissed off if someone I respected or idolized fell off.
Maybe that's how Kanye fans feel like.

Who's this character?
I don't recognize him.
>>280084873

I'm looking forward to the next two or three because I feel like that's when it's getting interesting with what Guts will do.

>>280160826
>sac'd his mom to use his behelit like every other apostle (celebrity)
heh

>>280142932
>>280117572

No, you idiot. Griffith was born from the mutant fetus, so he is technically Casca's son.

>>280143964
You're forgetting Shrieke and Farnese entered Casca's mind and saw the atrocities of the Eclipse in her memories. The two of them have some idea.

>>280161305
Yeah, before that Shrieke had some vague ideas because of what her teacher implied and that like Farnese they had some vague idea that he was connected to the Hawk but the Casca mind thing put them a bit closer to knowing what the fuck is his deal.

>>280161305
Schiekre and Farnese watching Guts and Casca fuck was the ultimate cuck moment

>>280161305
Yup, some ideas but no idea of how it affects Guts or what that means going forward.

Are the Godhand in the mindscape? Or how they link back to Guts quest for revenge?

>>280162278
>Brother turns her advances down giving her a complex
>Imprints on Guts because he rescues her and he's strong
>Guts won't even fuck her while she's possessed by a demon and begging for it

>The only thing she can do to prove her worth to Guts is to bath, feed and play with the Potato
>Too cucked to even confirm that Guts doesn't want her
>Goes in to the Potato's mind to Unpotato her and learns about Guts relationship with her
>Is forced to sit there while she replays the Potato's memory of fucking Guts
>Successfully Unpotato's the Potato
>Guts immediately wants to restart his relationship with her and he barely acknowledged what Farnese did to get her back
unironically can't think of a more cucked character off the top of my head

This art is so directionless and bad. Its trying to be good but it is just awful. What is with the endless panels of faces that expresses nothing. The movements and scale make zero sense. I would have rather berserk to have just died rather that have this corpse raider take the helm.

>>280163124

>>280163124
It is impressive how bad this team is after years working with a master like Miura.

>>280163496
Agreed, Miura was letting the series fade out and then these loser decided they needed to tell the story themselves. If the writer wanted to stop dont bother doing your fanfic.

>>280163496
what I wonder is why they couldn't get somebody who could draw guts face better. overall, they can sort of recreate miura's styl;e but the MC's face is consistently bad.
compare pic related, ther are so many images of guts by miura that they genuinely could have just rained an AI on them and got better results.

>>280163483
The lesser of a 10/10 is still a 8 or 9.
I can compromise.

>>280163833
I can accept that response. Cheers buddy.

>>280087751
i mean, this is hero's journey 101, isn't it?
this is guts' spiritual death before being reborn

Daiba deliberately told the emperor about guts’ curse so the emperor wouldn’t kill guts. Daiba specifically selected the tomb for guts because he knows it will help guts in some way. I think guts will have some sort of confrontation with himself and this will get him back on his feet.

Guts will never use his behelit. The writers want you to think that. I think that either one of Guts’ crew members or else skull knight will use the behelit and this will be the final betrayal to guts. I think Skull knight is gonna try to sacrifice guts and his crew (guts won’t die but some of his crew members will) The current arc isn’t rock bottom yet, mark my words.

>A vengeful spirit trying to rebel against literal demigods for 1000+ years betraying someone who aligns with his cause at the last moment because... he just has to!
That's just shit writing.

Also, Guts will use his behelit as a gateway to kill Godhand Griffith after killing incarnated Griffith. That's more or less going to happen in the climax of this series.

>>280110932
What a fucking downgrade this new artstyle is specially with them. They benefit from those thick, rough outlines, they don't half as hardened as in their first appearances. I love their design and the fact they're not pathetic fodder, so it bothers me a lot.

>>280166559
>to kill Godhand Griffith after killing incarnated Griffith.
They're the same thing

>>280168966
Yes and no. If killing the Incarnated Griffith kills the Godhand Griffith then the whole Conviction arc makes no sense. Griffith had to incarnate to directly meddle with shit in the Physical world since he can't do so with him as Godhand. The same logic applies with killing him. Guts would have to kill the physical body first before killing the demigod that is Femto.

>>280084664
Would Miura have drawn something like this?

>>280169106
Buddy, you know that the merging of the astral world solved this right?

>>280169106
>Guts would have to kill the physical body first before killing the demigod that is Femto.
Doesn't Guts swing his sword at Griffith and it he just phases through it, like a ghost?
Also, what about Griffith "turning" into Femto atop of Ganishka?

>>280084873
I guess we'll see if studio Gaga knew their master Miura at all in the coming chapters. Though, its not looking good,

>>280169776
Sure but it doesn't mean the Incarnated body became Godhand Griffith magically out of nowhere. After all, you still got moon boy within the incarnated Griffith.
>>280169798
Think of both Griffiths like the holy trinity and the hypostatic union of Jesus. God 'as three persons' and Jesus being both divine and human. Griffith is something similar like that.

>>280084687
what's his stand?

>>280170447

>>280163124
What you want is irrelevant.

>>280164869
The behelit uses itself. Guts will simply refuse to make the sacrifice, if it is even his.

>>280084636 (OP)
Thanks.

>>280169798
>Doesn't Guts swing his sword at Griffith and it he just phases through it, like a ghost?

Possibly just shitty drawing and it's supposed to be the same thing as when all the arrows missed Griffith. Otherwise it's a completely new power, and it feels kind of stupid because the dragonslayer has been previously established as being specifically useful for harming even incorporeal beings.

>>280174146

>>280166481
The behelit will activate and SK will encourage guts to make the sacrifice. We'll find out SK sacrificed his crew for his current power level and that guts sacrifice would be strong enough to rival Griffith. He won't take the deal and he'll somehow merge with his shadow which makes him impossibly strong. SK will do something to redeem himself and will turn back into a human before his death. We'll have a father son moment between guts and SK and the godhand will gtfo before guts attacks them again.

>>280177348
>We'll find out SK sacrificed his crew for his current power level
Speedreader-kun... SK died during Void's eclipse. Him being a literal walking corpse has something to do with Schierke's master Flora as it was implied she did some forbidden voodoo magic to get banished from Skellig. Also, you have forgotten the fundamental aspect of how Apostles work. If SK was an Apostle all along, Guts' and Casca's marks of the sacrifice would bleed.
