eh as far as I'm concerned, berserk starts + ends with the golden age stuff establishing the world, everything after that should just have been anime fight of the week stuff with no plot throughline. guts big strong he kill the baddies the end. oh no his tortured soul who cares. there was never going to be a satisfying arc or conclusion which is why it was never made

yeah I too like when stories mean nothing and things just happen arbitrarily

The only thing that Marvel movies have really demonstrably ruined is dialogue in TV/film. I'm so sick of terrible Tony Stark-style punchup lines being in everything, now.

Yeah, you're right. I think it's just become even more prevalent since Marvel. A guy in the DnD group I DM for described Whedon dialogue as "that one line from every mid-90s action movie they would use for the trailer, except it's written to be every single line of dialogue."

You're stupid as gently caress and should also eat a dick.

Like a million fuckin cocks for trying to facetiously play "masterpiece" in the face of the incredible art and narrative that Miura slaved over his entire career.

Just goddamn people like you suck infinite poo poo.

As thread OP I now declare that Berserk was kinda overrated; dope art but too rapey and meandering after Golden Age, unfortunately Miura died now that it was getting good. This is the only valid opinion, nay, definitive analysis of the manga. Thank you for your attention.

loving whatever, I'll admit maybe my hot takes on this manga I quit reading years ago aren't the best but thats no reason to dig up some probe from last year that is completely unrelated (and not transphobic, simply a personal attack). Sorry you get so offended by someone's opinions on manga but maybe you are the one being an rear end in a top hat.

You have always been the stupidest fucker in this thread where I and Grouchio post, so it's easy to remember you constantly making GBS threads your pants.

Shut the gently caress up. Maybe just post normal when someone disagrees with you instead of immediately jumping to weird goon hyperbole poo poo

After ten years, people are getting sick of the Marvel Method. Sorry that upsets diehards still clinging to the brand.

Wait, I think its been eleven years actually.

No, I'm pretty sure it's one film studio gaining absolute dominance over the industry that's doing that.

Also, don't be mean to Grouchio.

You just don't have to watch them, a lot of people don't.

Like for something "gaining absolute dominance over the industry" I've managed to watch probably a whole two modern marvel movies and they were the most divorced from the overall thing at that. (Guardians of the Galaxy 1/2)

grouchio is generally just oblivious or naive instead of actively malicious like a bunch of folks on the forums so he's at least a rung up from those sorts

I haven't watched a Marvel movie since Thor 3, but they're so omnipresent in the culture I know what's happened in all of them. That screams cultural dominance to me. Geek culture generally won't shut up about them.

Other than Uncut Gems, it feels like most of the movies I have watched recently have been pre-2014.
