Tuxedo Catfish posted:Puck is essential to counter the darkness of certain arcs of Berserk. Like he's pure comic relief now, sure, but there are points in the story where he's basically the audience surrogate while Guts go completely off the deep end. He is also important for telling Guts about the location they are at now in the manga.

Crabtree posted:He is the pure embodiment of the mercenary that Guts once was and his profession. A dude with no loyalties other than the best fight he can get. Doesn't matter if its for a tyrant, a church or even evil itself. As long as he gets a good fight out of it, The Nosferatu will walk into any war and seek carnage that can challenge him. Odds of a rebellion because of this? Odds of it happening before Guts even gets there?.

Crabtree posted:I don't think Zodd will actively betray Griffith yet as he's shown no sign of that, but I think he may disobey orders or desert to seek out Guts for a fight if poo poo goes bad in Falconia. Because I don't think its just him that may not like the new world that Apostles have to live as - basically protectors and possible servants of their prey. Like just a bunch of animistic psychopaths now have to follow orders and take their medication in the form of gladiatorial fights for humanity's amusement, to be part of Griffith's Kingdom. The system doesn't really seem to be intended to be stable, and Zodd probably doesn't really care enough to keep it going if this is just the maelstrom of causality to manipulate Griffith further. Zodd goes where there is battle. If he rebels, I don't think he will be the one to start it, but if he thinks it will get him a good fight, he has been shown to be more than willing to act for humans(pre-eclipse at least). With Rickert's bitchslap of defiance, there is at least one seed of rebellion inside Falconia. As for going to find Guts, he would need to know where he is. I have no idea how he would track him down, especially without the help of the Godhand. If they did meet, I'd guess he would tell Griffith they were coming, because that would also mean a bigger fight against Guts. I mostly agree with your second paragraph. Saying it was a necessary evil to him makes it sound he was a decent dude looking to fight and could have regretted it before becoming an apostle. I guess we really can't tell, but that seems like an odd assumption. lobster22221 fucked around with this message at 11:14 on Apr 9, 2018 |

Crabtree posted:Griffith is probably being pushed into letting his dream fail in some regard just so they can get another sacrifice out of him. He's too ambitious to just stop at a Kingdom in a world where he can't really conquer anything else due to the loving near extinction of reality. End game, do you think it is possible that Guts will actually let the rest of the godhand live? Is it possible that they are annoyed at Griffith and will actually aid Guts because it works for both of them? Or at least tempt him with a behelit?

Is the idea of evil actually Canon? I thought he published that chapter by mistake, so for all we know it isn't even an actual element in the story anymore. I'm probably getting facts wrong, so can someone clarify and or correct this?

Bisse posted:At the moment it is not canon. Miura removed it because he felt it was a bad moment to introduce such a concept. It may come back later, but until it does just assume it won't. Apparently the way Miura has planned story the has changed a lot since then, so it might no longer have a place. Thanks, I was a bit confused on that.

Radish posted:The Idea of Evil isn't really any different than the Warhammer gods or Shin Megami Tensei. Maybe he felt it was just too close to those. Supernatural beings being effected by the existence of mortals isn't too rare of a theme nowadays when deities are involved. iirc, IoE is basically a thing created because humanity subconsciously wanted there to be a reason for evil to exist. I'm not sure about WH chaos gods, but I thought SMT demons were just powered by explicit belief?

Radish posted:The Warhammer gods are specifically created by strong emotions while the SMT demons are basically given form by humans beliefs and wanting rationality in the universe (which is based on the real history where mythologies explained the unexplainable). They are similar themes where human emotions, thoughts, beliefs, etc pool in some alternate dimension and become malicious and then cause lots of horror on the humans that created them without knowing it. I was not trying to call it the most unique idea either. I do think it has a slight twist to it, but so does every take on the idea(of evil, har har har). Augus posted:I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't magic in Berserk still follow that principle? Trolls and unicorns exist because humans came up with them. The difference is that those creatures are explicit ideas instead of a personification of an abstract concept based off a subconscious human desire. Even if the myths can vary, the base idea is there."Oh, its a horse with a horn,, the horn has magical properties", That is why the Idea of Evil is an interesting take to me. Because no individual* came up with it and defined it. lobster22221 fucked around with this message at 14:32 on Apr 16, 2018 |

MechanicalTomPetty posted:IIRC, the way it works is that those who die peacefully and without hate/malice (Godo, Flora) get to go to Heaven, or whatever passes for it in Berserkverse. Those who don't die peacefully, become an Apostle, get turned into an Apostle-Spawn, pledge themselves to a demon knowingly or otherwise or get branded as a sacrifice (pretty much everyone else) go straight to Hell. Ah, I don't know why I was thinking there was no afterlife. Probably mixing it up with some other franchise. My memory is poo poo.

It'd be interesting if Griffith actually dies before Guts can even get a chance to kill him. Depending on what Miura does, Casca may or may not be pissed at Griffith similar to immediately post-eclipse Guts, so there might be a an interesting angle there.

No idea who is going to use it, could be Guts, Puck or maybe even Casca. Maybe Guts will do it to gain the power to kill Griffith but that seems unlikely. Maybe Guts dies and Puck or Casca uses it to revive Guts somehow? Is it bad that I find godhand Puck an amusing thought?
