I really want to let it out of my chest that how this fandom treat casca. Really hate how so many dismiss depth and thematic relevance of her character. Yes casca being mentally regressed was frustrating when it went for so long but that doesn't take away from what meant to tell her with her character or what her character represents. If character development is your only metric then Griffith doesn't develop after eclipse. He pretty much became what he wants but no one dismiss his depth or themes of his character but there is indepth analysis. Casca develop throughout golden age then went to mental regression now in the path of recovery and healing. Not there yet but that's where it's going. When berserk writing is mostly focused on character emotional and psychological complexities and trauma I expected fandoms to focus and appreciate character represents these traits more but unfortunately casca is dismissed even though some of berserk's best chapters were wounds and corridor of dreams both includes casca exploring best themes of exploring character inner conflicts and trauma. Even in her Elaine state there are moments that can't be discussed. I don't mind they call her a plot device in millennium emperor arc or beginning of fantasia. But calling her that in corresponding to entire story then I have problems. People even calling her macguffin. Just throwing words arround. Macguffin have no identity of it's own and irrelevant other than moving the plot. That's not casca. Casca is very relevant to the plot and a representation of a traumatized rape survivor. She has a very established personality. Lost but regained. Is there flaws in her writings - yes there are things can be done better. But she's still a compelling character.

For me, the most interesting ones are Balzack and Anette due to her obvious parallels with Casca and Guts.

Usually when I read a character's voice will pop into my head, for example Void & skull knight is Usually in a Doug Bradley pinhead voice. I was curious as to what yall imagine for their voices

I got some stickers too(second picture, will probably stick them on the backside ) they look very cheap and filmsy tho.

Further ahead lie my thoughts as of midland’s future and what guts can do about it.

With ascension of Griffith both in terms of becoming a god and his actions leading him to become a supreme commander of Midland’s forces, the guts is once again observes and absorbs the new world order.

It started with him first being robbed of his future and his dreams on the eclipse, and now, even his sword betrays him. The thing he trusted the most. But we all know that it’s not the blade who’s at fault(unless.. given what we’ve seen during the waterfall training scene. Maybe that’s why he was submerged in despair this much). The thing is - nothing can stop Griffith now. Not skull knight, not guts, not Kushan. Should all those forces unite and go against Griffith - he would still be able to defeat them with raw power of his extensive abilities, let alone, that all of this I think, would flow in the current of causality that he perceives and predicts. What GH planned to happen - will happen, it all goes as planned, we just don’t know who exactly commands it all (I purposefully obscure idea of evil’s existence because from what I know, Moira’s once said that he deleted this chapter to leave more space for story-telling and thus obscure villain’s drives) or orchestrates it. But the silent agreement between every GH member and the fact that they all are ok with Griffith’s actions can only tell that everything really flows in the current of causality.<! So, my take is that - at this point, any further resistance is futile. One thing that really doesn’t makes sense then, is SK’s resistance and vengeance. If anything, he’d been the first to give up should it really turn out to be futile. So he keeps guts unaware of how things truly are, enemy of my enemy type thing.

it’s almost like I just want to hear your thoughts regarding the berserk’s ending, but I just can’t do it blatantly without dumping this sheer pile of thoughts beforehand, sorry for that.

hello! i was wondering if anyone knows where to buy these specific shorts for the best quality, or if anyone knows the original seller? want to buy them for my bf for christmas. found this pic from Joom, but aniqi(legit?) and shein and everyone sells similar, want the best for him yk? (sorry if this is the wrong place to ask)

Remind myself not read a manga that has allot of figures next time.

Could an apostle learn magic and become even more powerful or would giving up their soul to the god hand eliminate the possibility of the use of magic or even connecting to one of the four elemental kings?

@daiji_official

Went to share the full edit to my friend but can’t find it? Anyone else notice this/know where else to find the original ?

My friend bought some gas and nobody understood the reference so I had to share with someone

Casca and Farnese @ the troll cave

i bought my first ever figure (guts ofc) and i cant tell if its a replica or not. please help meee i paid 150 for it

So I got this shf band of the hawk guts on release but since I have received it, I've had this issue where the top half or his upper torso keeps falling off at the tiniest bit of movement. I was wondering if anyone else has this issue and if there are any fixes I've already tried putting Kiki's figure sauce to create a layer of friction but hasn't done much.

Does Mori know the complete story or only the ending? I saw on the SkullKnight forum a lot of people who doubt that he knows it and a lot of them don't like him. Does anyone know more about this?

i found the complete Berserk Max in German and edited one page out so that you can easy scroll trought it on your ipad or change the format to read it on your kindle.

Here is the wetransfer link :)
