Femto/The Godhand VS The Idea Of Evil/The Beast Of Darkness

[Yoshi]

Who is the bigger enemy in the Berserk Manga at the moment and why?

 

[Yoshi]

I forgot to put the God Hand in with Femto.

Definitely Femto. Idea of Evil has only featured in one chapter in the manga. The Godhand are the true villains relevant to the story.

The beast is more symbolic of the struggle within Guts. I wouldn't call it an enemy in the same sense that the God hand are.

At the same time though, it encourages Guts to sacrifice the Black Swordsman Party. That’s definitely far more evil than taking revenge on Griffith and the Godhand, especially after they built Falconia, although it’s debatable whether or not it’s truly a paradise.

 

[SSJ2]

We'll see. I guess you can argue that they both offer similar threats to Guts. Femto took away his friends already, the beast can take his new ones now. Still, Femto's actions during the eclipse make him the clear top enemy in Berserk.

I don't think Guts is even touching the Idea of Evil at any point tbh. At best him and Skully will get to kill the five godhand members. Might not even succeed at that.

The Godhand are so strong that I don’t even mind if they don’t kill Femto or Void but I hope they kill Slan, Ubik, and Conrad at the very least.

 

[Papasmurf]

If they don't kill Femto then all of Guts' journey was meaningless. I think they'll kill him while his body gets hijacked by the Moonlight Boy.

 

[Yoshi]

That’s true. And Skully’s journey would be meaningless if he doesn’t kill Void.

 

[Papasmurf]

I think the Moonlight Boy will beg for Guts and Casca to kill him when the final phase of Femto's plan comes to pass, whatever it is and how it has to do with his new kingdom of Falconia. The Idea of Evil is a literal cosmic entity that has no physical presence unlike the Sea God, no way they're killing him.

 

[Yoshi]

I agree that it would be illogical for the Idea Of Evil to be killed by Guts and Skull Knight, but I thought the Idea Of Evil was part of the World Spiral Tree.

 

[Papasmurf]

No, the world spiral tree is simply a junction that connects the Spirit World to the human realm. The Idea of Evil was stated to lie far more distantly in the deepest reaches of the Spirit World.

[Papasmurf]

Isn't that second image from the deleted chapter? I don't think we physically see the Idea of Evil after chapter 83.5.

 

[Papasmurf]

This definitely appears to be in reference to God/Idea of Evil.

Good find.

 

[SSJ2]

I really doubt the Idea of Evil is even kill-able.
