Is this actually good? People keep telling me to read it, and like every Japanese fantasy game has references to it. But honestly from the outside looking in it just looks like edgy torture porn crap. Like "the world sucks, everyone is suffering therefore deep". Is it actually more than that?

fuck off we're full

Hey, I'm not completely new to this, I read the Legend of Zelda manga, so I know you have to read the books backwards.
>>

>and like every Japanese fantasy game has references to it
this is completely wrong, what the fuck are you talking about?
>>
>>290334388
I mean like Dark Souls Elden Ring and Dragon's Dogma. I don't know just the ones I've been playing.
>>
>>290334118
It's good for half an arc, less than 5% of the total length.
>>
>>290334422
that's three out of hundreds, far from "every"
also they only have small nods and references to some aesthetic aspects, they otherwise have nothing in common
it's more like an easter egg than anything else, on the same level as Dying Light having a toy Master Sword
>>
>>290334466
Okay every one I've played, which is those three.
>>
>>290334118
i don't think it tries to be awfully deep. the main appeal is the art. miura knew that's his bread and butter
>>
Give it a fucking try, it's free.
>>
>>290334118
It's my favourite manga and I think it nknits very good
>>
>>290334118
It's not particularly well written, especially after a certain arc. The art is excellent, and that's the reason to read the manga.
>>
>>290335362
You guys read comics just to look at the pictures?
>>
>>290334494
>>290335362
the art is barely above average even by 1989 standards, you negroes need to read more manga
>>
>>290334118
its good until miura switches to digital art
>>
>>290335740
Are you willing to post some examples from 1989?

People keep telling you to read it. It's literally the number 1 manga on MAL. Are you really questioning if it's good? Or are you questioning if (you)'ll like it? If you're wondering if (you)'ll like it or not, (you)'ll likely have to read it. I'm not sure us randoms on the internet know (you) well enough to say if (you), will like it.

its number 4 on mangaupdates, does that mean these webtoons are better?

I think the quality of Berserk speaks for itself with how it remains very popular and highly ranked next to big flavor of the month stuff, and in spite of both the author and series both being stone fucking dead.

It was a widely loved manga when it new, when it was still running, and still after Miura's sudden death. He had more planned for it, but what he did leave is an immortal legacy.
>>
>>290335986
It used to be in the 6-10 range in MAL and AniList but it got boosted to 1 when Miura died because people felt bad for him
>>
>>290336463
How does this even happen
>>
>>290334118
This website is full of contrarians now, if a thread like this was created 10 years ago, it would be unanimously recommended as the masterpiece it is, but these days you have retarded normalfags making brand of sacrifice tattoos, so 4chan has to dislike it now.

Just read it, anon, there's great art, great pacing and great writing, it has a lot of heart.

I would slay you on the spot if you were in front of me. Read it for yourself you stupid fucking faggot.

It's not, it's a masterpiece. It's unfinished though, which is very sad because it would've been a story of all time.
