It wasn't until I sat down to translate this chapter that I realized how much I've missed Guts & Co. Rickert's cool and all, but man. Welcome off the boat, guys.

Did they give up making the Berserk movies? I remember a third coming out but then everything seemed to have gone dark.

Stairmaster posted:Wait wasn't' that supposed to be the point of those movies.... A lot of people assumed that but apparently they either never had plans to go beyond the Golden Age, or the movies didn't do well enough to justify it. The thing is that the Golden Age arc is very self-contained and the most well-known part of Berserk because of the anime. The fact that it ends incredibly bleak notwithstanding, if they start doing more, they have to keep going and there isn't really another good stopping point.

Is the Golden Age supposed to be based on Hundred Years' War era Europe? It seems like it, given the heavy use of mercenaries and constant background of warring going on as well as the political intrigue by the nobility.

Yeah probably. Miura takes a lot of inspiration from European history, as well as fantasy literature which itself takes a lot from European history. Also I can't believe we're finally off the boat. I'm gonna be listening to this on repeat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkYYYew8CUI

I knew that good things would happen if I stopped paying attention to Berserk. Now to wait until even more cool stuff has accumulated before starting to read up on it again.

The main factions of the Midland and Durer kingdoms seem to be stand ins for the English and French kingdoms broken down into confederacies of dukedoms and fiefs as well.

My understanding about the Berserk movies is that cgi/anime movies bring in dogshit profits in Japan and aren't worth making long-term franchises. Apparently studio ghibli said something of the sort as well about their animated movies. Hell, IIRC, anime in general barely breaks even most of the time in Japan.

Apparently studio ghibli said something of the sort as well about their animated movies. Pretty much every traditional cartoon ever made by anyone not named Walt Disney has made money on merchandising or not at all. Hence the insanely cost-cutting way in which anime are made and all the low wages/outsourcing/ugly rear end CG. You can do it like that, or else sell Evangelion dinner sets for 10000 yen basically.

They alternated between really good and really poo poo at other parts. The Zodd fight looked horrible because of the CGI Zodd. The Eclipse sequence was really really well done. Honestly the Movies just made me remember how awesome Casca was. Her move against Adon at Doldrey was very well animated and the fight against Silat also was very smooth. I liked the tv show a lot but it totally shafts Casca, outside of her jobbing against Guts she hardly showcases her fighting abilities. The movies make sure you remember that even if she isn't on Griffith and Guts level she is still a very very formidable fighter.

I liked the movies. Sure, they cut so much of the story out that some scenes lose most of their meaning because the context is gone, but otherwise they're gorgeous movies with great pacing that highlight some of the best moments in Berserk through the lens of a film, rather than being a direct translation from print to screen of the manga like the old anime tried to be. (and failed cause it was bad) Really disappointed they haven't made more. Even just the Black Swordsmen arc would have been fine, a one-off movie to actually show what the rest of the series is like. Pewdiepie posted:Are they off the boat in English yet? What gives? Go scream at video games or something for a bit, translations are on the way. If you've waited eight drat years for them to get off the loving boat, you can wait eight loving days to read it in English. SatansBestBuddy fucked around with this message at 19:16 on Nov 29, 2015 |

He is off the boat! But the first thing it happens it's something as uninteresting as monsters appearing and Guts cutting them down in a single blow. ... What was the point of getting off the boat? If he is going to do the same as the last 10 volumes...
