Why are there Berserk fans who hate that Guts got to have friends again?
Why are there Berserk fans who hate that Guts got to have friends again?
Because they need berserk to be grim and dark 24/7 even though Guts’ story is about overcoming darkness. These are the same miserable fags and larpers who pretend to see themselves in Guts because of his tragic backstory.

If Berserk isn’t constantly maintaining its violent and dark atmosphere, berserk fans can’t posture to everyone else about how much more mature and adult their series is compared to others. They need to maintain their superiority complex to other seinen and battle shonen titles
The series goes to shit when Casca falls for him and he overcomes his rape in two seconds.

Berserk is good because it is an uniquely Japanese take on western dark fantasy free from modern western moral pretensions and media guidelines and also has amazing art and a compelling story.
Any other opinion is wrong and retarded.
Witch girl and Jar Jar kid are straight-up trash. The ex-knight siblings fit the cast just fine, but those kids had no business being in the story.
Millennial hatred of joviality and beauty
Schierke is like the 4th most important character in the story after Guts, Griffith, and Casca.
berserk is mainly by inspired by and owed its whole existence to conan the barbarian, flesh and blood, lord of the rings, h.r. giger, hellraiser, and hp lovecraft. femto's entire design is literally taken from brian de palma's phantom of paradise
basically every single anime and manga wouldn't exist without gaijin influence. anime was born out of a westaboo's admiration and imitation of disney first and foremost and manga wouldn't exist without western comics
also all of this wouldn't exist if japan never lost ww2 so nips should be thankful they got their ass bombed so bad then occupied for so long
so keep your mouth shut faggot, you only have anime and manga in the first place because the japs got their ass handed to them by the gaijin not once but twice
I miss Molda
you just repeated the first part of my post and then started bleeding from your ass for no reason
Her importance to the plot doesn’t change the fact that she clashes with the story’s tone, brings in shounenshit elements like the berserker armor, and largely functions as a plot device.
He's right though.
important = good
Right about what? His argument has nothing to do with my post. The most modern artist in his list of Miura's inspirations died of old age while Berserk was still being published.
Heh, you got BTFO
All the gritty grimdark horror fantasy fans of Berserk basically got slow motion rug pulled after Conviction. I think that, as Miura's health deteriorated later on in his career, he ironically developed a greater love of optimistic fantastical elements, kinda like how Tolkien came up with his fantasy world while being waist deep in mud, blood, and feces in trenches at the Battle of the Somme.
Because they associated themselves with cool loner straggler Guts, but then he got friends and they didn't.

Their favorite series outgrew them and they can't stand that.
Nah
Wtf kind of criticism is this? You wanted him to cry about being raped as a kid forever? Why? And why doesn't it make sense to you that learning how to be touched in a consensual way resolved that conflict for him?
Someone being nice to you once doesn't fix trauma.
Ok I didn't know you were trolling, my bad.
Bad writing is bad writing. I'm sorry to be the one to break this to you.
Circular reasoning.
Trauma is not fixed in a day. Berserk is simply poorly written.
Honestly, I think that trauma got buried under all the shit he experienced with the Eclipse.
It wasn't fixed in a day, it happened when he was little and he was able to move on from it when he was an adult. Did you read the manga?
Trauma is not fixed in a day. Berserk is simply poorly written.
He didn't overcome it in one day, it is just that her accepting him was therapeutic in that moment, he still didn't like being suddenly touched in the black swordsman arc and conviction.
He worked through it in one conversation with Casca. You don't overcome trauma in one session after not doing anything about it for 10 years. Nice dishonest argument though, really great stuff.
I don't know how to tell you this but Miura wasn't trying to create a realistic depiction of your life when he wrote that Guts has trauma after being raped in the ass as a kid.
He worked through it in one conversation with Casca. You don't overcome trauma in one session after not doing anything about it for 10 years.
No, he didn't. The only ways it affected him was that he hated being touched, can't sleep without his sword and he had recurring nightmares of it. 3 went away as he grew up which is realistic and 1 became less common for him until after the eclipse, the sex scene with Casca was his trauma coming back up because that was his first time having sex so he flashed to the sexual violence that happened to him. Him talking to Casca was just therapeutic in that moment
Miura wasn't trying to create a realistic depiction
I'm well aware.
They don't understand he's a literal wolf who lives in packs. He can do the lone wolf routine, but he feels best when he's supporting others.
Fuck off and go concern troll about 'realistic rape trauma' or fanservice or whatever somewhere else, cunt, as if you're the omniscent knower of how 'people actually act'. Nothing ever makes you harpies happy.
Nice strawman, faggot.
The issue isn't that Guts has friends. Guts had Puck during Black Swordsman and Lost Children (the best arc). Guts didn't need a fucking JRPG party full of shitty gags. Guts didn't need to lose all the challenges he faced and have his life turn into an easy, boring road trip, with nothing "berserk" to it.
nice to you once
It was the culmination of several years of the Hawks as a whole helping him get over his past.
Did Miura know he was going to die soon?
Why didn't he just do little sketches and finish the story for the studio before he passed?
Not every panel needs 2 weeks of work
Someone being nice to you once doesn't fix trauma.
Yes it does, see picrel
They can't self insert as a character with friends
