” 'Berserk' Manga is reportedly coming back on June 15th, 2026. ”Thoughts?
>>288223130No it's not. The creators dead and has been dead for a long time. This will be nothing but a corpse dug up and puppeted to dance for profit.
>>288223130Wrong board dude but I just want the series to be over with already. Miura not being in charge is too sad and play Band of the hawk.
>>288223130Its dead, both of them
>>288223130Miura is dead, this is not Berserk, this is fanfiction
>>288223131welcome to 4chan retard
>>288223130They should just entirely overhaul the story. Guts is sent into a time portal far into the future where humanity is enslaved by the God Hand. He gets a cybernetic arm. He discovers the newest member of the God Hand is himself.
>>288223130even as someone interested, it's so hard to care. I don't understand how another person took it over and it's still releasing at this glacial pace.
>>288223130TEN YEARS ON A FUCKING BOAT
>>288223137So... basically nothing changed except time traveling part and change cyberarm for a neat set of skeleton armour
>>288223130Has anything happened since he got locked in the pagoda?
>>288223130They need to scrap everything after golden arc and wrap it around there
Guts gets BACK ON the boat
>>288223138I gave up. It was hard to follow when Miura was alive, now it's even worse. Miura would at least release a chapter here and there
>>288223130>20 pages of Guts being depressed and side characters talking about shit that doesnt matter>next chapter in 8 to 10 months lmao, see ya!
>>288223130Video games?
>>288223132sippy bippythey might as well say that miura is coming back.
They revived Miura?
Someone redpill me on Berserker. I watched the anime, and while I enjoyed it, many people think it's the best anime ever made.
>>288223144>here and there
>>288223130author is dead reading forward is a sin
>berserk has no ending>a song of ice and fire has no ending>hunter x hunter has no endingCursed timeline.
Everything up to and including the Eclipse is great but, and this is just me guessing, i think the story was supposed to end soon after. In chapter 83 we find out that literal God the Almighty was behind the, then, upcoming events. Griffith meets him in a vision. But the problem was that this chapter locks the story into a direction that left Miura very little wiggle room.A writer can do that kind of foreshadowing when he has an outline for the rest of the story and only has to flesh it out, basically when it's 75% done. But Berserk moved insane numbers so ending the book that keeps the lights on would have been the right artistic decision but a bad financial decision. So #83 was removed from later prints and has never been brought up again.That's why the main plot only occasionally comes up again and 90% of the events since the Eclipse have been filler.The interesting part of Berserk is Guts, Band of the Hawk, Casca, Griffith, Demons, Skeleton Knight. That is Berserk and that is what people care about and that is the only reason why they keep adapting those chapters of the manga. Nobody gives a flying fuck about Guts and Friends roaming the world getting involved in completely unrelated dogshit introducing the 100th minor character that will be forgotten in the next chapter.We've had like 50 chapters between every page of Skeleton Knight, Femto, Casca, Dragon Slayer, rape baby when that should be a clear line of continuation. Eclipse is over, here comes the Skeleton Knight who explains who the Demons really are and how to kill them, here comes Femto reminding Guts why he hates him, Casca is a blubbering mess but is making progress, hey Guts to stop the Demons you need to level up with Dragon Slayer gear, oh shit the rape baby is alive, but Guts don't forget that the Demons are still around and this is how we stop them.There, this should be at most 2-3 arcs. Not 200 chapters.
>>288223130My first thought is that this is not videogames and my second thought is I haven't read any post-Miura chapters and I don't intend to.
>>288223150i need one updated till when he died at least
>>288223130The art change is not nealy as bad when you read the physical manga. The transition to Boruto is way worse and people seem to cope for that.
>>288223130I don't really care, everything after the Eclipse (in real world time) has been extremely average.
>>288223150I just googled it and it appears that they have released 16 chapters. They aren't that bad
>>288223155I can't believe LOADINGU fucking won.
>>288223153Golden Age is overrated.Lost Children and Conviction are the best arcs. Berserk only goes to shit when Schierke shows up.
>>288223130don't care, miura is dead and beserk died with himstudio gaga and mori are complete fucking retards who have absolutely no fucking clue what the fuck they are doing
>>288223155Iori did this.
>>288223150>>288223155It's hard for me to feel truly sympathetic for Miura, his work was good but there are mangakas who worked harder and actually finished shit. Berserk wasn't that complicated to warrant 30 years
>>288223130Unless they revived Miura from the dead to continue it. then it died on that island along with him
>>288223155They can't keep getting away with it...
>>288223135I enjoy fanfiction.
>>288223163well i really liked the quality of the drawings so..from one side i understand it took long to make each chapter but..at least 1 every 3 months would have made sense but i dont know how to draw shiton other notes i dont understand d.gray-man
>>288223164>Griffith got his kingdom>Guts dropped his revenge quest and chills on the island with CascaA better conclusion than wherever the plot is meandering to right now I’m sure. Look forward to another dozen chapters of Guts moping on the floor in a dark room.
>>288223163>It's hard for me to feel truly sympathetic for MiuraIt's easy for me. Maybe you're just too young.
>>288223160The issue is just that Eclipse feels like the end of the 2nd act, or even the third act, in a regular novel. Band of the Hawk, Golden Age, it all ramps up. And then Griffith summons The Hand out of pure nihilism, wants to destroy the world for his Kingdom, and we get this big ass crescendo that ends with a To Be Continued...Unless someone shows me Muiras notes, that he planned this structure from the beginning, nobody can convince me that Berserk wasn't supposed to end shortly after Eclipse. Maybe another arc or two.
>>288223130It's truly not the same anymore, trying to continue it was a mistake
>>288223163I don't understand how Berserk came to such a stand still when he had an entire studio with multiple assistants that could near perfectly emulate his art style. Just draw story boards and make the assistants fill it in for fucks sake. Instead he had his team full time working on a one-shot where a little girl pisses on a guy to give him super powers and when that failed to make serialization he had a manga about a trap during the bronze age.
>/a/ ewwwwww no thanks
>>288223163Miura was channeling depression when he wrote peak Berserk. He became a happier person and so Berserk lost its bite, and eventually I don't he even wanted to work on it much.
>>288223155should I play idolmasters?
>moved to /a/
>>288223130>One chapter this yearIt would be nice to get commitment of at least fortnightly updates
>>288223132I have to know how it ends. If you're enjoying the cucking, you do you.
How come every adaptation made Guts initiate their kiss when Casca initiated it in the manga?
>>288223163at some point he was just too meticulous for his own goodthe kushan war alone would have taken years off most manga artists
>>288223130>Miura will be, reportedly, brought back to life by the forbidden art of necromancy to pen a few chapters and then go back to the underworld.
>>288223137FOOLISH SAMURAI
>>288224005>chaptersYou wish. Necromancy can't bring him back that long. It'd be a page, maybe two.
>>288223130Berserk ended in 2021
>>288223130Fuck Berserk! Berserk is dead! BRING BACK DURANKI! I know for a fact it wasn't Miura doing most of the work on it anyways!
>>288223958the adaptations aren't as comfortable with Guts being a sexual assault survivor
>>288223137HOLY SOVL
the new team had a rough start with elfhelm. i think the pacing was too fast. I'm glad they are involving more side characters. i bet miura had more notes written down on the upcoming arc than rakshas attacking.if you think berserk ended when miura passed, then what are you doing on this thread anon? go book a flight to Japan so you can dig him up and throat his decaying cock.
>>288223130digital killed berserk, not miuras death
>>288225180This. Though the sea god arc sucked hard despite not being digital yet.
>>288223130Why I get the feeling that Zodd wants to leave the Band of the Hawk??
>>288224159Volume 42 and 43 have released since then. Are you stupid?
>>288225740He's a pussy. Wanted to fight the strongest my ass.
>>288223132>>288223135>>288223161>>288223164>>288224159Why are you here then? Just read something else.
>>288225740He's disagreeing with what Griffith is doing but he's compelled to follow him because he's a Cuckpostle
The manga ended May 6th, 2021
>>288226217Volume 42 and 43 have released since then. Are you brain damaged?
>>288226228Think about what happened on that date, retard
>>288226204To add to this I think this is where the "Guts is going to use the Behelit" crowd are fucking retarded.>I need power to beat Griffith!>I'll use this Behelit so I'm literally compelled to be his soldier
>>288226237Think about the 2 volumes released since then, you monkey brained child.
>>288226253Again, Berserk ended on May 6th, 2021.Anything after that isn't Berserk
Is the Behelit going to come in to play soon? It's been a 35 year long Checkovs Gun. Surely it's going to be relevant other than Puck feeding lil Nigga cheese.
>>288226275Again, 2 volumes have released since then. Are you brain damaged? GB2SK with the other retards.
>>288226296I'm going to write a sequel to LotR and publish it online.Oh look, that means LotR didn't end!!!Retard
>>288226325You mean like all the stuff JRR Tolkien's son published after his death? You're a retard. Enjoy being a cuck who doesn't see how the story ends
>>288223135Honestly who cares. Berserk was always a Devilman fanfic that the author lost interest in. For all we know, it had been ghostwritten for years before he died
>>288226325>Same team of artists and editors making it and the guys best friend supervising>This is the same as me writing fanfictionYou might as well have used a food analogy.
>>288223130This series started almost forty years ago and Griffith's character is STILL a mystery box. Are they ever going to commit to him just being pure evil?
>>288226520I mean they kind of did. In the Eclipse he was literally stripped of all humanity.
So let me get this straight>Griffith joins Godhand>Physical body literally broken down and rebuilt as an Astral being with some sort of premonition >He tapes Casca which infects the fetus she was carryingOkay>As a direct result of that child being infected, he gets a new body which directly ties him to Guts and Casca, allowing him to hunt down the Spirit Trees and ensure that magic is weakened which in turn makes his rise in Falconia as fool proof as possible and now the only spirit trees we've seen since Fantasia are either buried in Elfhelm or literally dead (where the Stupa is), ensuring he's essentially undefeatable And people still think this wasn't some Keikaku bullshit?
>>288223139but enough about hunter x hunter
>>288223139A little disingenuous >Chitch kino>Rickert slap>Falconia kino>Sea God kino>Merow kino>Moonlight Boy kinoA lot happened in those chapters
its miura's fault that he decided to have them be on a meaningless ship for 10 years straight instead of getting to the point
>>288226857Dude definitely made some incredible decisions>End of Millennium Falcon>World changing ramifications for the party>Hey now's probably the time for a 3 chapter flashback that kind of sets Guts character back
>>288223739it ends with Guts and Chasca making a baseball team's worth of kidshere, you can take my fanfiction instead of that other one
>>288223739does it not bother you that the person making it is completely different? you might as well imagine up an ending for yourself, unless you for some reason believe in their vision more than yours.
>>288223130Why the fuck is it even going on hiatus when they don't have Miura to hold them back? Just fucking get to the end already.
>>288223130why is it constantly on hiatus anyway?Miura can't even be blamed for this as he's dead
This is going to be the first manga with 2 dead authors
I miss her
I read the suicide Island by the new author and it was pretty bad after the halfway point. And the artist had a real bad same face syndrome going on. Has he fixed that or does everybody in berserk have the same face now?
>>288227470Studio Gaga is handling the art, Mori only tells them where the story goes.
>>288227081>does it not bother you that the person making it is completely different?I'm not a cuckold, so no
>>288227470I don't know how many times this needs to be repeated but Studio Gaga, the people who have been drawing Berserk since around chapter 320, are the ones drawing it and scripting it. Mori is supervising the direction.
I actually do not understand how Miura's entire team of editors that were with him for years and the publishers just went along with Mori's "GUYS TRUST ME,I KNOW HOW THIS GOES,HE TOLD ME 20 YEARS AGO,LET ME TAKE OVER THE PILOT SEAT",am I taking fucking crazy pills or were they all overdosing on hopium?I don't want to believe it's all for that sweet money
>>288228140>team of editors*assistants
>>288223167Now's my chance to post this edit I made almost (christ) 5 years ago.
>>288226246if anything he will swallow it like skull knigger for some alternative powerup.
>>288228048>the person making it is completely different>I'm not a cuckold
>>288228140>I don't want to believe it's all for that sweet moneyIt is. For them it's work, nothing more than work.
>>288223132^THIS.
>>288223171>>288223153I could see the original plan being Black Swordsman -> Golden Age -> an arc the same length as Golden Age, dedicated to Guts finding allies and culminating in the final battle. You could theoretically have cut it off shortly after the Eclipse, ending it on a tragic note, but the way Golden Age is structured it's meant to maximize your feeling of betrayal, and hence your thirst for revenge. An ending without Griffith's death would be unfulfilling.The shift in narrative style after Golden Age seems more likely to be the result of Miura's changing that original final arc to be a series of smaller arcs, with JRPG-style bosses and progression. He got attached to the characters and saw that Berserk was popular enough to run indefinitely, and he decided to shift the story into one open enough to continue at whatever pace he felt like continuing at.
>>288223149>coming backMiura will rise from the gravehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJRXeYGwzv4&list=RDaJRXeYGwzv4&start_radio=1
Would you date a girl that other girls mistook for a boy?
>>288229238hell yea
>>288229282I wanna kiss her blushing cheeks
yay.. hold on Miura died, what excuse do the new guys have for not having a proper schedule?
>>288228306>Berserk has been drawn by Studio Gaga for some 60 chapters>Didn't even noticeYeah, you're a cuckold that won't get the ending
I think that Mori and Studio Gaga have more idea about Miura and Berserk that a bunch of autists of internet.Just saying. It's just the magazine keeping Berserk hostage.
>>288229718One of the editors is on record saying YA were sitting on 4 chapters at one point. Infuriating.
>>288229588From what I understand from my limited Japanese>Mori gives the team 3-4 chapters to work on at a time, and different people are assigned for drafting, dialogue, storyboarding, composition and digital inking>Mori visits at the end of the month and checks progress>If something isn't "Miura like" (his phrase) he asks them to redo it>Repeat monthly >Finished chapters are delivered to Young Animal when they're done, and they choose the release schedule Young Animal seem to want small batches ready to go, and one of the guys said in an interview about his other manga that they've been sitting on some chapters for a while (this was back in February last year)
>>288229993If Mori visited even twice a month you've got to wonder how many things would be caught early instead of at the end of the month. Seems wasteful. Mori is working on his own manga full time I suppose but you've got to wonder if he'd be better spending more time on Berserk given his comments on finishing it for his friend.
>>288223130Thankfully Miura's been training people before he died but what about vision and all that?
>>288230019We're getting broad strokes which is better than nothing. Been following this fucking thing for 22 years, going to need to see an ending.
They're releasing a new volume in Japan next year so the new chapters have to be fairly frequent given there's still 8 chapters to make up a volume and there's 21 YA magazines before the volumes release date, and that's not including printing time
Ban all Twitter posts, no exceptions
>>288223130Yeah, fuck it. I lost interest back when Moira was still alive, but decided to release one or two chapters per year (half of their contents were Puck's jokes or lolishit).
>>288223130The entire Berserk manga is just this
>>288225740My theory is that he has a similar motive to Guts when he left, he only wants to fight the stronger and he isn't getting that serving Griffith
>>288223130Just fucking end it already.
>>288229718>I think that Mori and Studio Gaga have more idea about Miura and Berserk that a bunch of autists of internet.You're wrong. They make mistakes anyone who paid attention to the manga wouldn't make. For Gaga it's just a job, can't even blame them for doing it because Miura barely let them draw backgrounds so they'd have nothing to show on their portfolio for having been assistants on 'serk. Mori may or may not have his heart in the right place (probably not), but they're just friends anyway, he's super knowledgeable about Berserk.
>>288226544Thats why its ambiguous, and it's obvious that ambiguity is intended. He no longer has the ability to be human. He could be influenced the Godhand or idea of evil, but if he isn't, there isn't really anything evil about him except that one moment of weakness, which Miura does his best to justify by making it clear everyone is disgusting and weak and worthless anyway. What's the endgame? The world is better than it was before. Is Guts gonna give up, or is something gonna happen that gives him a better reason to fight? It's hard to imagine Griffith being the antagonist at this point. Void or godhand or human evil or causality will probably be the thing that Griffith and Guts defeat together. In any case, he has no reason to hate or persecute Guts or Casca, and Guts already decided once that he was gonna give up before Griffith stole Casca back.
>>288223130Dead author. Dead manga.
>>288223130Nobody cares anymore
