God damn, was the first chapter supposed to be 200+ pages long or did the place I read it at put a bunch of chapters together?

Anyway, so far so good, Guts is badass as fuck and damn does he sure love cleaving people in half.

Puck is the cute mascot/comic relief character I'm guessing. Why is he naked though?

He isn't a kid is he, I don't have to feel like :withheld right?

I love how that snake dude went from acting all high and mighty to begging for his life like a little bitch.

Also what the fuck was that mutant blob that was in Guts' prison cell?

My favorite page from this chapter~

Mostly just because of Guts' expression in the lower left panel lol

No, start on 00a. Don't skip the Black Swordsman arc. It won't make your reading experience worse, trust me.

They are the Black Swordsman arc. Like I said, read it first, don't skip anything. They are the perfect set up for a guy's ascension. They say you will kind of get spoiled if you read 00a to 00i first, but the spoiler is pretty much predictable by some of the happenings in the Golden Age, if you ask me. Golden Age also kind of starts a bit slow, so reading the Black Swordsman first will keep your interest on it and make you constantly ask yourself how things got to that point. Showing a story to a certain point and then flashbacking and showing how it got to that point is a common strategy employed in mangas like OP and works really fine with Berserk. Just read it in the order, don't skip.

Right so it turns out that "Chapter 1" where I read it was actually chapters A B and C put together.

Poor Old Fella, or Vargas, whatever his name was.

Puck continues to be adorable while Guts continues to be a badass....

Well not here-

What the hell is up with the face you're making, by far the creepiest shit I've seen in this so far.

And here-

Why is he all dere? "I-it's not like I wanted to come save him or anything, b-baka."

And damn, count fat shit eats people like I eat burger king!

Also it's nice to actually know what that mutant apple face thing we all had as avatars at some point is.

Yeah, I think I was a bit overblown in the way I did say, but that's because I got a very good experience when reading the Black Swordsman arc first and can't imagine having this good of an experience if skipping it then after the Golden Age going back to it. Sorry. But yeah, I can't say which way Pocket-God will enjoy more, I can just speak for myself. Sorry for anything.

Nah, reading the Black Swords man arc after the Golden Age arc is way better.
