I’ll starthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berserk_(manga)>Berserk is a dark fantasy manga series by Kentaro Miura, following the journey of the swordsman Guts in a medieval-inspired world filled with demons and supernatural horror, known for its extreme violence, detailed art, and mature themes. The story centers on Guts, a lone warrior marked for death, as he seeks vengeance against Griffith, a charismatic leader who betrayed him and his mercenary group, the Band of the Hawk, in a demonic ritualThey’ve made a few animes from it, the best one imo is the 1997 one. But there’s no way it could successfully be a live adaptation
I've seen this thread so many times, I don't even like berserk anymore.
>>217826606You have? I guess you’re here way more than I am
>>217826616You've been making "they should adapt Berserk" threads every day, for like ten years.
I think it was fine the way they left it when Miura died with Griffith crying and making eye contact with Guts. I don't like the new art style or the way the new guy writes it is annoying. I haven't bothered to read more than like a couple chapters post-Miura though
By the far the weirdest thing about Berserk is how meticulously detailed all of the armour because of how utterly fucking useless it is in the story.I mean look at this. Pic related gets regularly massacred by arrows that go straight through their breastplates. I don't even know why the manga makes such a big deal about Guts cleaving fully armoured men apart when the armour in Berserk offers less protection than cardboard.
>>217826641I haven’t, and that is probably not a good use of anyone’s timeYou should just hide the thread lol
>>217826606Berserk stopped being worth a shit a long, long time ago. Muira effectively did his own Game of Thrones season 8 shittery and then died of pedophelia.
>>217826650I haven’t read any of the post Miura chaptersHe made like 2 other side series in his manga career too. The art is pretty awesome in them too, I’m guessing he wanted to take breaks from berserk
>>217826693Berserk was his main meal ticket, he did the other two to more openly express his pedophilia.
>>217826664I like the really long table that the snake apostle had in the first chapter >>217826709He did? Oh god
>>217826740One was about a wrestler hero who would be revived by a young woman who would revive him by pissing in his mouth, which made her grow younger as she fed him her "nectar", until she was a smoll girl.The other one is a quasi-Greek setting who's main hero is a 10 yr old hermaphrodite that all the lads are attracted to.No, I ain't making that shit up.
>>217826769Ohhhh shit, you’re right!!! Hahah, yeah I vaguely remember reading all of that too. I didn’t know he was going to die like a year later, so I assumed that berserk, and the 2 other works that we’re talking about were going to be completed in the 2030sI was mostly focused on the badass violent fighting
>>217826740>he's surprised a mangaka is a pedoNew to the medium? It's like being surprised a hollywood director is a jew.
>>217826575
>>217826831I guess. I mostly watched the 1997 anime and read the manga for the fights and the Griffith/Guts falling out
>>217826575The majority of long running comic book storylines would be incomprehensible as a movie adaptation. Just look at Batman. We have yet to see any story arc from the last 20+ years adapted into live action. They just keep going back to the same handful of old ones.
>>217826856At least we got heath ledger’s joker from itIt was a god tier performance imo
