SSJ reads Berserk

[SSJ2]

Much of it is GOAT material. The newer part of it is very meh.

How is the newer part 'meh?'

 

[SSJ2]

The story it self goes to shit and drags forver.

 

[Void]

All of it is more well written than DB, so you'd have to elaborate on what you mean by mediocre.

I still like most of the newer stuff minus the Sea God.

Overall, Berserk is somewhat polarising. The Golden Age is one of the best arcs in any manga, though every arc afterwards is a definite step down in writing quality beyond Guts constantly being developed. That's not to say any of the arcs were bad, bar the events that occured part way through the Kushan Arc and beyond, but it never came close to the same heights as before. It still has potential to retain that status though due to the possibilities it's finale holds from various points of foreshadowing thus far. There are definitely manga out there with a more consistent quality, though very few still come close to reaching Berserk's heights. I'd overall rate it as still being a high tier/lower top tier series, though it definitely needs to make improvements to stay like that.

Also, the art is God tier, with the only series I've seen matching or surpassing it being Vagabond, maybe some of Tetsuo Hara's later works too like Souten no Ken.

Just caught that the midland queen was not blood related to Charlotte. Never noticed that before.

 

[Papasmurf]

Yeah its explained that she's his second wife after the first one died (and that Charlotte looks just like his mom which is why the king wanted her )

 

[SSJ2]

Yeah i always missed the panel showing the mother, I thought it was a picture of Charlotte.

 

[SSJ2]

Gambino sold YER ass out.

 

[Void]

Donovan and withheld would get along quite well.

 

[SSJ2]

How did the sword physically appear there?

 

[Void]

Its not

 

[SSJ2]

Yeah that was retarded. Should have just read 2 pages later..

 

[SSJ2]

void is jacked.

 

[Captain Cadaver]

void is jacked.

His sacrifices to become a God Hand were obviously in order to make serious gainz.

Spoiler

I don't get this picture, is it meant to be fanart? Did you make it?

 

[SSJ2]

It's obviously fucking shit fan art, bro.

 

[SSJ2]

The Great Goat pre pseudo-apostle form was a skinny little prick. Why would anyone consider that twig the leader? lol

Guts vs Zodd 10/10 in the manga.
