That's only like 1 issue, there'll be nothing for at least 2 years you mean.

Thing is though, releases like this in an awesome series warrant multiple read-throughs, which is never a bad thing in berserk because you go back about a year later and read it and are like: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK THIS IS loving AWESOME For the 3rd time+ Speaking of which I think I'm about due for another read

While I am interested in the Elfhelm segment too, where we are now is probably the most pivotal part of the story yet. If Femto, SkullKnight, Zodd, and Rakshas get into an epic fight, isn't that just a little more awesome? I'm not sure I'd want that to end too quickly myself

I want Guts to fall in from the sky and join the battle. I don't care if it doesn't make sense.

The only logical ending would be: Once they make it to Elfhelm the rest of Guts' party is going to die or get trapped in a painting. Guts will then make his way to the Elfhelm castle. Just as Guts opens the door it will suck him in and he will think to himself "How many times have I made this journey?". Once he awakens we'll see a 15 year old Guts reach to his neck and touch the Egg of the King. Thinking to himself "I've always had this," he will then step forward and challenge Bazuso. Can't think of a better way to end something that I have poured so many years of my time into...

Niddhogg posted:The only logical ending would be the "gently caress you" ending from the Dark Tower? Yep, I almost threw the drat book across the room when I read that ending. I put it off for a couple of days because one of my friends told me that the ending would piss me off and for some reason I still read it. The big difference was that I always knew the Dark Tower series was going to have an ending (no matter how enraging), unfortunately we don't have that kind of promise from Berserk.

Yea, the Elves do that to the entire crew and now they can't stop Griffith's onslaught. Which they never see since, hell, let's have the Skull Knight kill him too, ending the two greatest egos on earth whose little argument about Caska's rape is causing untold amounts of death as they both kill everything that stands in their ways.

So, a summary for 304 is up. RAW is out as well. Rough translation (in progress): Basically, SK's strike hit Ganishka and cut him in half because Femto distorted space, using his powers to avoid the blow. Ganishka turns into light, which is what he longed for. Ganishka's light wraps the world, and a new world appears. Miura also notes that this chapter (Falconia) is pretty much near an end. Pretty epic stuff. Next episode is due June 12. edit: removed bullshit rumor Cronus fucked around with this message at 17:00 on May 19, 2009 |

Zorak posted:You don't want to know, unless you really want to kill your mental image of Miura. Funnily enough, the Idolmaster thing just confirmed my suspicions about Miura. At some points in Berserk there was just too much demon/troll rape going on, to a point where I started wondering if the author actually wanted the readers to get appalled/angry or if he just enjoyed drawing those things... Yes those demons raped all those women - we get it. No need to show us in sickening detail. To be fair, scenes like that aren't nearly as common now - perhaps it's thanks to Idolmaster letting him vent his frustrations? And yes, I believe Idolmaster is that bad. I'm not calling Miura a freak here, it's just that the comic goes overboard at times, and I find it much more enjoyable to watch Guts cleave things in half than trolls impregnating women. Partly because of this, I find the anime superior to the manga, and I hope we get a second season sometime. Renoistic fucked around with this message at 18:57 on May 19, 2009 |

Sorry to haaate~ And sorry about the stupid derail. But I am very happy and sad that Berserk will end soon. At least we will have a resolution!

He is referring to the Chapter of Falconia which has been the story arc for several years now. In his mail to SK.net he indicated the series at this point is about 60% done.

I like how Femto just grabs a rent in space-time like it's no big thing and applies it to Ganishka's face instead of his back.

So I've been reading The Brick Testament and I've decided the only thing as violent as Berserk is the old Testament. The book of Joshua can be summarized as "God's chosen people commit genocide." See the bible chapter entitled Seven Cities Massacred. Also David at one point gets a gets a genuine rouge's gallery of Berserk-like fighters to follow him around. Truly as it has been done, it shall be done; there is nothing new under the sun.
