So watching Berzerk for the first time (I got the movie collection for cheap) and while I really enjoyed it (despite the bad CG) hollllllly poo poo that final movie

Like, I know we're in hell and that ending was meant to be horrifying and show how evil Griffith is but that loving rape scene goes on way too loving long, that's a one and done on watching that movie

yeah for some reason a lot of berserk stuff tries to have casca fanservice? i guess because she's like the only major adult female character. but, like, no, berserk musou, i dont want a dlc costume of her in a wet white dress, that's terrible.

anyway in the manga it's just a few pages spread out across the entire scene, it's still kind of hosed up but i can at least get what miura's going for.

The show is about the main character being torn between wanting to live in the city and her life our in the sticks. In the final episode she goes to the city, assumes everyone is making fun of her and laughing at her and, traumatized and ashamed, runs back home, where all her caretakers and friends, who know that nobody was laughing at her, encourage her to never go to the city again because everyone will laugh at her. This is played for comedy, instead of being insanely hosed up.

Another theory is that the mountain gods (who in traditional Japanese literature are usually portrayed as cruel and jealous, or so I've read) aren't about to let their cute little miko go anywhere -- and all those things that seem at first glance to be her social anxiety driving her imagination wild are actually visions that the gods are putting her through to drive her back to the mountains. So all that stuff is actually happening to her (in this interpretation).

Even without that interpretation, what the actual people around her put her through, what with an adult male literally ripping her clothes off, an adult female beating her, and the bear she grew up with using her ignorance of the city to manipulate her at every turn it was still pretty much child abuse every day.

The bear didn't gently caress her, but everyone metaphorically hosed her over.

The manga is pretty good though, so anyone who thought fluffy talking bear antics sounded good should go read that instead.

Though I dropped SYFM a few years back ('round 50 or so), I want to catch up. 'S a pretty good manga, though yeah. I don't think it should be quite so long.
