In this thread we talk big and small about the Berserk manga, if you are new to this thread and is reading this right now. Most of us in this thread has been here for a very long time and we talk about everything that has to do with the manga. So you might wanna be careful about reading this thread since it will contain loads of fillers, especially the last pages who mostly goes deeper into the latest chaps and what will happen in the future.

Other than that. Happy to see another crazy Berserk fan has joined the crowd, hope you like it here and hope to see you participate in the discussions.

Any news on when the next volume will come out? Unlike most people I don't follow chapters, only volumes...

Shinji Ikari
Tue, 08-17-2004, 12:15 PM
The next vol will be out in dec or something like that. You know they only release two vols a year i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

I have recently started to read Berserk,i was so stuck on the manga that i read 28 vol in a week.

Guts is the so cool,scary when he fights. Griffith is the first characther in a manga, i have ever hated what he did to Guts and his friends...

The next chapter is out 21 this month. If you want know where to find Berserk let me know im member in a forum and the mods in the forum is a group that translates the manga.

Shinji Ikari
Tue, 08-17-2004, 03:48 PM
Are you by any chance refering to one person named Orochimaru? i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

Well 28 vols aren't out yet, the 28 is the one being released right now in chaps.

And I agree with you about hating Griffith, man I want that man to get Guts sword in his stomach screaming like a pig... Doing that to the band of the Hawks and to Guts lady, he should die...

Terracosmo
Tue, 08-17-2004, 04:36 PM
I think there are few manga characters more hated than Griffith i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

And yeah I know about 2 vols/year thingy. Makes it all the more cool when it does come out...

Shinji Ikari
Tue, 08-17-2004, 05:09 PM
Griffith is the first manga/anime character i've hated i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

Yeah, maybe i'll wait for next vol too. Might be better for the whole feeling of the manga i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

Hakeem_21
Wed, 08-18-2004, 05:14 AM
Shinji Ikari: Yes i was refering to the group Evil Genius with Orochimaru,Lucky-7 etc.

I have read 239-243 of the vol 28.

Are yous crazy? Can you really only read Berserk twice a year?

I other hand cant even wait the 3 days left to chapter 244.

Shinji Ikari
Wed, 08-18-2004, 09:28 AM
well it is quite boring having to wait... And i tend to get impaitent. But now i've made up my mind to just forget about Berserk until the next vol is out. It is best that way i think... Because just reading single chapters are taking the spirit out of it.

yeah i know how you feel terra (hey man! come help me revive that damn irc channel! haha) and shinji. i read chapters for a while but it just wasnt as exciting. id rather have just one big helping of berserk every six months than get a little driblet of it every week. someone has to hook me up with the volumes. haha i lost it all when i formatted my comp.

Hakeem_21

ei guys i need help! im a berserk fan also!!! would someone tell me which chapter of the manga continued the anime? (i really dunno if my grammar or sentence is right, sorry for the poor english)
i really need a reply on this one so that i could download it ASAP.

Thanks in advance!

kAi
Fri, 08-27-2004, 12:09 AM
kazh the manga starts before the anime and the anime finishes about volume 13...i think the anime is somewhere between vol4 and vol13...

the reason why no releases have been made for quite some time is that the author is on a much needed rest...the latest chapter released is v28 c243...i have that in raw i dunno if it has been translated...

Shinji Ikari
Fri, 08-27-2004, 06:07 AM
I'd say that in order not to miss any parts of the manga one should read all of it... But if you're not into doing that (well first of all it's really really stupid of you) you should read from vol 9 where there are things from the manga that the anime didn't show.

kAi
Fri, 08-27-2004, 07:07 AM
i agree with Shinji Ikari it is better to read the whole thing...coz the anime missed some things out...that is needed in the story


EDIT: Shinji Ikari: what have you read upto?

EDIT: Shinji Ikari: what have you read upto?

I've read up to the latest chap... But I'm thinking of cutting off here and wait for a whole vol to get out, reading chaps take away a lot of the feeling and spirit of the manga.

kAi
Sun, 08-29-2004, 07:18 AM
i used to wait it out for the volumes...
and it was quite good to read 200 odd pages...
but i just cant wait that long anymore..

Hakeem_21
Wed, 09-01-2004, 10:40 AM
You dont have wait much longer i read that Chapter 244 is out in 10 sep.

kAi

yeah but seriously, watching this gave me chills and goosebumps. so far, i've watched this like 90 times now.

Mon, 09-13-2004, 03:20 AM
That was just too... OMFG... what an awesome trailer!! The song... and everything! WHY ISN'T THERE A FUCKING SEASON 2 ANIME ="¤="#¤)#!

Lefty
Mon, 09-13-2004, 03:57 AM
Daddy want. Daddy want so bad he can feel it. I hope to GOD they are releasing the shit in the US. I watched both trailers and drooled endlessly. I have seen the face of new lord and savior and it's Berserk the game.



WHY ISN'T THERE A FUCKING SEASON 2 ANIME ="¤="#¤)#!


Just wait, they might revive the series if the game is successful enough, We can hope and dream right?

kAi
Mon, 09-13-2004, 06:43 AM
yeah that would be good...a season two.
ive been hopin for a long time!
hopefully people will buy the game and make it successful so they realise that a season two would do well in there favour!!!

Terracosmo
Mon, 09-13-2004, 03:53 PM
That's what I'm hoping for too.

But more likely is that this game is instead of an anime, since season 2 would contain too much shit to censore for TV...

kAi
Mon, 09-13-2004, 11:10 PM
you can see that the game is inline with the manga...fuckin excellent man!!!
yeah well they got away with some of the shit in season 1 so they can maybe cut a little out..that would be enough for me...but still it would be better if they followed the manga more and put everything in it!!

Terracosmo
Tue, 09-14-2004, 04:00 AM
Still the anime had shitloads of stuff censored, yet they still aired it in the middle of the night i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

Tue, 09-14-2004, 05:20 AM
Thats why i will never watch the anime you cant watch Berserk censored cause you want Berserk to be dark,brutal and stuffi/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif

kAi
Tue, 09-14-2004, 07:13 AM
yeah, i can still watch it...its good to see some of the scenes animated...i would have rathered it to be uncensored and shown more of what was in the manga but...cant complain...well you can but yeah!

oh and I WISH!! that there will be soldiers to cut off their heads and horse and all...not only monster...well everybody can dream lol...and i wish too that this game will go out in canada and not only in japan because i dont have the fuckin chip for the exported game. i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif

kAi
Sun, 09-19-2004, 01:28 AM
well from the looks of the trailers it is based after the anime...because he has his dragon slayer sword, and he is fighting zodd on the snow...and then theres the church scene, and the scene in Qliphoth (sp?--the troll cave thing)...so yeah

well you can always go buy the chip..heh

Terracosmo
Sun, 09-19-2004, 06:46 AM
He's also fighting together with the Hawks i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif So I'm hoping it will cover the entire series.

BTW I re-read the manga eclipse recently. God I hate Griffith more every time...

kAi
Sun, 09-19-2004, 08:08 AM

yeah griffths is a bitch...

he your fav..?

Terracosmo
Tue, 09-21-2004, 11:45 AM
Yeap. i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif Judeau was my favorite first but unfortunately he met his doom all too early. But Serpico is a nice replacement, he's strong, has a cool background, wind sword and he has the same gentle aura as Judeau had.

Hakeem_21
Thu, 09-23-2004, 05:13 AM
Judeau was my fav after Guts to bad he had to die. '
Serpico is cool sometimes and sometimes he is lame often when he is with his boss whatever her name is.

kAi
Thu, 09-23-2004, 06:16 AM
ive always liked Gatts...my fav..
Judeau was cool, i liked corkus as well...he made me laugh...serpico is cool
and the skull knight is beast!

man i would say kentaro miura is one of the best artists there is...
and also one more day till the next chapter!!

Death BOO Z
Thu, 09-23-2004, 06:27 AM
Serpico sometimes anoyyes me...
I mean, sure, he's got a great background story and his remarks are usually funny, but whenever he fights (espically now, with the new sword) he sticks out like a sore thumb,,, he fights like he came from some PG anime, his sword doesn't even touch the enemy... that's just lame.

kAi
Thu, 09-23-2004, 07:37 AM
but he would be no good without that wind sword vs some monsters, or groups of them..
he would be killed

Saruto
Thu, 09-23-2004, 03:19 PM
so do you guys really know if its possible that the game show in stores anywhere except in japan?...

AND is there another way to read japanese cd's on play2 whitout the chip?

kAi
Fri, 09-24-2004, 05:35 AM
you should be able to get it in your country at like a china town place...thats where you can get most stuff...
but im pretty sure that you will need the chip to place this game...

Chapter 245 is out

what did you guys think of this chapter...no action but you can tell something is gonna happen soon..
well with sonja and mule in the city possibilities of griffiths attacking this place are high...wonder if an apostle is close by...which i think would be

probably getting ready for an attack and gatts and co are stuck in the middle of it fightin i would think, but gatts will most prob go straight for the apostle if anything.

jhahaha...i cant help it
i will continue to read a chapter at a time...i dont have the patience to wait for a full volume...
but coz these are all japanese with an english translation, so when i get the volumes it is all english and i read it again.

EDIT: Also if people are after some volumes Suprnova (http://www.suprnova.org) have volume 4-26 added today...check the comics section out.

Oh Mule. Yeah that kid. Now i remember..

In fact Chapter 246, subbed is out...

Berserk 246 Subbed (http://www3.telus.net/Evil_Genius/Berserk.html)

Btw, are we on sync with Japan?.

Looking back at the Berserk game, there appears to be one other kid, who is a magic user that isn't part of their team.

I think the writer has already progressed further or have written the story until some distance. but haven't drawn it out and published it yet.

kAi
Sun, 10-10-2004, 11:21 AM
yeah there is another guy in the game heaps of speculation about him also.
yeah im also sure miura has planned ahead well at least a little about what he thinks he is going to do and then just alters bits and pieces during.
yeah these raw scans are the latest releases from japan. and next chapter is a new volume also.
wonder what is going to happen here...what will ishidoro do? and what will scherkie and sonja do? im thinkin some pirates are in for a treat.

SilentSnake
Fri, 10-15-2004, 09:24 AM
i'm not into manga nor anime too much beside naruto and berserk, but IIRC (and as far as logic tells me) author is always ahead, so it's most probable that Miura is like volume ahead of us (it would be a bit annoying to make 1 chapter every 2 weeks no matter the fact if u would be sick/have no idea at the moment/be close to the dead line all the time), so game is probably like 1-3 chapters ahead of manga now (after all to finish a game u need some time, depends on one's stubborness etc.).

and as always, berserk rulz i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif

from all the things i've read/watched (naruto and berserk are just the things that i like the most ATM) i think that berserk ownz all, naruto is not as good as berserk but still better than most things right now (at least I think so).

Stoopider
Fri, 10-15-2004, 01:53 PM
Probably takes his time to draw them real nice. Thats why we get a episode a month. Not a episode a week. i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

I wonder where's this series going though. So intruiging.

I heard Darkhorse Vol 5 is messed up.

I only buy DH so i can add it to my collection, other wise it's all about the scans.
I just cant wait for the grand war which seems to be shaping up quite nicely.

SilentSnake
Fri, 10-15-2004, 02:14 PM
actually we get a chapter every 2 weeks, not month i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif

and i am aware that he's the only one drawing berserk - he don't have anyone to help him, he wants it to be his and only his own i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif

but it would be unwise/risky to have no ready chapters for a 2 months at least, but i think that he's more ahead than that thus i've said 'bout a whole volume (well... *maybe* of course, it's just a wild shot of course)

I'm intrigued too (well... who's not i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif ), can't wait for another chapter.
it's full of surprises, u never know what will happen, u can't predict behavior of characters nor can be assured that everyone will survive (it was like 10 volumes of hawks after all, I really liked Judeau for example, rest was cool too and... they were just sacrificed, rikert was just lucky, nothing more, and gutts and caska... well... it can't be THAT unpredictable i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif and shock made from death of most of hawks was big enough, try to imagine how ppl were feeling when they were at chapters when griffith is rescued and there is NO FU**ING hope for him to be like he was before).

ok... typed enough i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

draw real nice?
miura is probably my favourite artist. he can go into such detail for the background, and even the foreground, also with the follow through swings of his sword where you like see gatts in 3 different positions taking out a couple of guys and how it flows in within the panels, and story.
yes this story is intruiging i absolutely love what miura has done and gone on with this!!!

from all the things i've read/watched (naruto and berserk are just the things that i like the most ATM) i think that berserk ownz all, naruto is not as good as berserk but still better than most things right now (at least I think so).

I love Berserk and Naruto isnt near as good but its good enough.

If you like Naruto try Hunter X Hunter which is better if you ask me.

Are there any girls reading Berserk and loves it? I mean, this manga is pretty much the typical "man's" manga in my opinion... Loads of naked chicks and sex... I mean, of course gals love sex just as much a us guys, but it's directed more to the violent type of sex such as rape and shit that sucks and when there is pure nice sex in this manga, well it's more about how the women looks if you know what I mean.

I just think that girls might think Berserk is more gross than guys do.

Well how do you guys/girls feel about Berserk being as close to a Hentai as it could be without being a Hentai... I mean, seriously... I read through the manga from vol 9. And from there you see the princess Charlotte, Caska, loads of naked chicks being raped by some bull-like man, thing :S... You have the prostitutes where one of them is a sex maniac who has joined a cult which has sex like every night with anyone, there is the matter of Farneze getting off on her bed after tormenting herself and others with a whip and through fire...

Has this subject been up? Well no matter, It's a pretty good subject and it's fun to discuss (if anyone ever looks at this small manga forum i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif).

Personally I think it is great to have a manga/anime that can have sex, loads of demon violence and still make it feel natural with a script that makes the story interesting. I mean, the story and the character development 'til this point is incredible. It is worth reading this manga over and over to remind yourself of the details that you have forgotten about.

doesn't Terrasome like berserk? and isn't she a girl?
case closed,

anyway, i don't think that beside Terra you'll find many berserk fangirls, not becuase of the sex itself (i believe that there are more hentai loving girls than hentai loving guys) but becuase of the fact it doesn't go to the tradional 'girls' themes...

for starters, Gutts is exactly the anti hero charceter of 'girl' manga, he's dirty, blood lusted and scary looking with a giant sword, the very first scene of berserk opens with him fucking some crazy demon lady and then blowing a cannon into her mouth. 2nd thing is Griffith, altough girls go crazy once he appears (show some girl a berserk picture, and the first thing she'll say is 'this guy is hawt!'), the moment he turns femto, they'll scream in fear and abandon the manga...

anyway, that's the impression i got from talking to few of my friends (females) about Berserk...

Shinji Ikari
Mon, 10-18-2004, 04:02 PM
Is Terra a girl? Never knew... Only knew she/he is a swede such as myself i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

But you made a few good points about the "hentai" scenes in the manga...

So what do you think of there being such scenes in such a good manga... Is it betterr because it can stay natural with it or have you had an abundance of it by now?

Terracosmo
Mon, 10-18-2004, 04:05 PM
My gender is the most discussed topic on the forums to this day.

No matter what it is suffice to say I truly love Berserk ;D

About Berserk being close to hentai... I really don't agree. There's lots of rape, yeah, but never with the intention of getting someone aroused. I doubt ANYONE finds the kind of nudity available on Berserk sexually stimulating. For me it's the same as if someone called a documentary of world war 2, with all the dead jewish women, a porno.

kAi
Mon, 10-18-2004, 06:54 PM
berserk is awesome no doubt about it. the sex themes well there there because they are a part of the story. i have seen a couple of girls interested in berserk, they will usually look at some pic and just have some comment about it. but they would keep readin it. but i wouldnt call this hentai. it just has sex scenes and rape. well IMO
yeah i have read berserk from start to finish a couple of times. prob about 3-4. but its not just to clarify some things i might have missed, it is because the story and basically everything about it is fuckin awesome.

and those girls is Shierke and sonja and the knight that is hanging around i mule, the one that is recruited in to the hawks, and sonja shows him around, the little kid one.
and i think her power is like foresight or something.like being able to glimpse into the future just a little. and she is the hawks medium.

Hakeem_21
Tue, 10-19-2004, 04:15 AM
I think the sex,rape has been perfect for the story, one of the reasons i like Berserk is the world is so dark and gritty.

For example when when Griffith raped you know in front of Guts, i was as angry as Guts was.

Shinji Ikari
Tue, 10-19-2004, 07:19 AM
None of you thinks that Berserk having lots of rapes and sex could be degrading towards women do you? Because I know a lot of Swedish women who jumps and kicks if a girl is wearing somethnig too tight or too little on her body in a comercial... That is why I wondered about the other genders reactions towards Berserk...

Well no matter, all of you seem to take Berserk's sex as "none-erotical" sex. How about Charlotte/Griffith or Caska/Guts?

I'm just provoking you with all these questions i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

But it's fun, because even though I see those scenes as erotical even though not sexually stimulating which would be the case for normal hentai-makers I still wonder why it is like that. I mean, isn't sex always sex?

Just curious...

By the way, when is the next chap released? i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

kAi
Tue, 10-19-2004, 07:39 AM
chapters are released every second friday. so the next release is this friday and usually the preview is out the other fridays.

degrading to women, like this is the last thing on your mind...because it is fantasy, but in real life i think rape is just fuckin stupid and it pisses me off.
but if you want it just goes both ways, and what sells SEX DOES. but this degrading stuff i dont really think about it. im more thinking about the story line, looking at the art and what not.
but of course there are going to be people that dont like it for what ever reasons and that is there choice and just dont watch it, personally i think they are missing out.
and there are women who like this series for what it is. and i think that is a good thing.

i dont take this sex as erotical. i take it like its part of the development of the story. eg. when caska and gatts are having sex and stuff, there was so much behind it as it is the first time they have seen each other in a while, and there've missed each other, well gatts has always had this kind of a thing with caska and caska has always had this kind of a thing with gatts.
gatts saying that when caska touches him she is the only one that he doesnt get offended at.
and caska being the "wife" (so to put it) nagging women cant stand a bar of him. and then everything changes for her, when he becomes the 100 man slayer. and he leaves and she doesnt know what to do.

with this sex scene it was needed for the story, as caska gets pregnant from gatts, and then a little while later when they save griffths, he sees they have something a little extra than just comrades and then when he changes into femto he rapes caska and "demonises" the baby...

with griffiths and charlotte, charlotte has this thing with griffths and i dont think she would ever say no to him, and griffiths being distrought over losing gatts the man that could make him forget his dream, the man "he wanted", goes to charlotte because he doesnt know what to do and this was enivitable for him to have his own kingdom was to get in the dress of the princess.

i do see the scenes erotical for the characters in the manga, but not for myself. as it follows a story. if you wanted something like that you would either go to porn or hentai which ever you may want, some have a story line to it, but you dont watch these things for the story you watch it for the sex or whatever, or unless you like corny acting which can make you laugh.

Terracosmo
Tue, 10-19-2004, 11:11 AM
Of course rape and whatnot is degrading to women. But that's exactly what makes it so damn dark and good. And from such a viewpoint, the rapists are actually degrading themselves too seeing as they are the brutal males and blahblah. But yeah. Rape is horrid, so is murder. All parts of a very unforgiving manga.

I'm quite surprised that you can't see the difference between the sex scenes in Berserk & hentai. Seriously, hentai is like what? Generally 20 pages long manga issues with mindless porn in 'em. Taking the risk to sound very gay, Guts & Caska's sex scene was FUCKING BEAUTIFUL. Seriously. One of the best things with Berserk is that the author managed to pull off drawn sex without it looking stupid or like any random hentai. There was just so much emotion involved. And that's what separates it from hentai. EMOTION.

Shinji Ikari
Tue, 10-19-2004, 11:17 AM
You aren't listening are you? I'm telling you that is the strange thing... I do see difference. But it's just the same just looking at those scenes and nothing else.

Terracosmo
Tue, 10-19-2004, 11:21 AM
No I'm not, obviously, since no sounds are made. i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

It came across as strange to finish your point with

"I mean, isn't sex always sex?"

Because, clearly, if you agree with me... which you say you do, seeing as you tell me I'm not "listening"; you wouldn't end it with that question because it totally contradicts the whole argument. So yeah, they are naked, they have sex, they say "gimme more". But I still doubt anyone could get off on the sex scenes alone because it just doesn't play like a hentai scene does. They don't do "zoom ins" and shit like that... there's a raw beauty over the whole thing.

And don't listen to what swedish women say about girls in tight clothes. SWEDISH WOMEN ARE STUPID.

-----------------------------------------------


Well, Berserk ain't a happy colourful kiddy manga. It's meant for 15(?) and aboves? or 18 and aboves. Not that sex sells or anything. But it really show's it's grittiness, and also realism.

Also During those era's, people rape women, kill children bla bla bla. It's normal although disgusting. Thats the difference when we live in a civil society. Aih, the Cruelties and evil's of us Humang Beings.

Pllus, sex is normal.

well there is a text translation now aswell as the raw at skullknight.
check iy out.

Hakeem_21
Fri, 02-11-2005, 10:48 PM
Yeah but Berserk is too good to ruin the fun with reading just the text or seeing the raw. Its not like a manga like Naruto where you know what will happen so it doesnt matter if you see the raw.

I want to enjoy it fully when the scans with trans are out.

kAi
Fri, 02-11-2005, 11:18 PM
well i can't wait for eg, to slow
i just read the raw and text slower, doesn't ruin anything for me. i like it to much to be ruined, but i just like getting the vols after, that's what i really wait for.

Hakeem_21
Sat, 02-12-2005, 02:07 PM
Getting the vols do you mean buying the books?

There is 6 vols out fo Berserk in the manga store, im gonna wait a little more so i can forget little more about the begining of the manga before i buy them.

We cant complain its the first time EG has have problems, most of the times the scans are out much faster than this.

Tue, 02-15-2005, 09:05 PM
I'm with Budweinken. Their probably trying to keep it all "within the family" i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif Or something screwed up like that

Either than that, probably try and overthrow their father. I'm somehow sad to see that dumb girl gone. Somehow I think she would be the best caretaker for Caska. Finally a sense of simple responsibility on her shoulder and adds more to character growth. She's still useless, but by protecting Caska she'll hopefully get better.

And I can't wait for the day caska gets back her mind and have a duel.

Hakeem_21
Tue, 02-15-2005, 09:14 PM
Caska will probaly try to kill herself after hearing that she had being taken care like a child when she get her mind back,as the soldier she is.

Wed, 02-16-2005, 02:36 PM
Gutts will threaten that if anyone tells Caska about her being such a trouble he's going to kill that person i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

Caska's "awakening", if there will be any, will probably be a hard one... *thinks of lots of screams, cries, agony and fighting*
It probably will be, or at least I think It should be, really horrific and traumatic.

I've got no idea what will happen, with Miura anything's possible, definitely not predictable like Naruto...

Death BOO Z
Wed, 02-16-2005, 03:27 PM
I'm willing to bet my right arm that she'll regain her memory when some demon tentacle-rapes her...

when those bandits tried to rape her a few volumes ago, she temoprary regained her fighting skills, so I believe that if a demon tries doing it to her, she might completly get her mind back... and if she's angry that she was taken care of, she could just kill off everybody, I'm not gonna seriously miss any of them.

Hakeem_21
Wed, 02-16-2005, 05:20 PM
Nah nobody will rape her this time as long as Guts still breaths.

I feel sorry for the demon or human who tries to rape her cause then Guts will make him wish he was never born...

Shinji Ikari
Fri, 02-18-2005, 03:07 PM
Whatever happens when Caska regains her memory, some things are quite obvious.

1. She will cry and scream for days.
2. She will probably not be able to look Gutts in the eyes because she will feel dirty after getting raped by Griffith.
3. She will hate Griffith more than she ever loved him.
4. She will not go into battle along with Gutts if there isn't a cursed dark armor "ladies style".
5. Gutts will be in more pain than he ever has been before from seeing Caska in such state...

That is at least what I think will happen.

But by god, I hope this manga will have a happy ending together with Caska and Gutts i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

Munsu
Fri, 02-18-2005, 03:29 PM
at first Caska will follow Griffith's... probably because of the child she had... she'll be brain washed or something....

and yeah i hope a happy ending for Gutts and Caska...

though i can envision a scenario where Gutts is the only person alive

Shinji Ikari
Fri, 02-18-2005, 03:35 PM

I have a feeling that gutts will take the role of that skull knight dude at the end of the series and that Magical girl will become what her master was basicly continuing the cycle of this story. I have a feeling this is one of those infitive kinda of stories.

Hakeem_21

Nah that doesnt sound like Berserk style to me.

If Guts will live with someone happily ever after it will be Caska not the little witch.

actually... Lefty's version is very valid and possible...

he never said anything about living happily ever after... he is simply saying that it will be repeated cycle... kinda Melody of Oblivion

Shinji Ikari
Sat, 02-19-2005, 07:45 AM
There is one important thing about the story...

The way Gutts was born, in the stomach of a dead mother where ghosts the dead bodies came too...

Gutts has always been living on the border between life and death, that is the reason why he has no destiny. This story always tells us so much about how it is fate that made things how they are, but among the things that has happened, Gutts is in the middle swinging his sword towards fate to prove that he can shape his destiny the way he wants to.

He will kill Griffith, that was stated since the day he beat Griffith when he left the Band of The Hawks. Tat he is the Only one that can kill Griffith.

there are 28 vols and vol 29 is on the way... The manga is still going on in simple.

The anime end in vol 12 or something in the manga...

one way the manga is by searching on DC++... Make a search for DC++ on google.com or whatever search engine you use...

Or, as far as I knwo, you can only find from vol 3-28 on BT... Don't really know where, I know I and others sent links earlier in this thread, look through every page of this thread to find it i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif... or if you add me to your msn (only msn for me) I could probably hook you up with every last single chap there is so far.

Millennium Falcon Part
chapter of Falconia
A white lily in the field

page 01

Isidro - Not coming back? Farnazze?

Isidro - What do you mean? Serpico

Isidro - Who's going to look after Casca?

Serpico - This

Serpico - With this, you will be able to obtain a ship from anywhere in the city and however many crew members you need. Please do not break the seal.

Serpico - And Scherkie

page 02

Serpico - I will return these borrowed items. Thank you very much

Scherkie - Um

Serpico - The Vandimion family greatly appreciates you for bringing Farnazze De Vandimion safely back home.

Serpico - It may be small but all your expenses in this city will be covered by the Vandimion family

page 03

Serpico - We will come back for a more formal appreciation at a later time. Goodbye...

Scherkie - W wait Serpico

Guts - Hey

Guts - It's not a sin to at least tell us why

page 04

Serpico - I have nothing more to say

Guts - It would've been nice to have fought against you one more time

Serpico - There is no reason for that anymore

page 05

Isidro - Well?

Ivarella - Shhhhh

Scherkie - ..No. She's not closing her heart. It's more like she took my hair off of her finger......my telepathy cannot reach her

Isidro - It's kinda....we went through all those tough battles together and now it's a goodbye without a reason with just a piece of paper. This is why nobles are....

Isidro - Not that I care

Puck - (He's singing a song and I dont recognize it)

Scherkie - Something. I think there is a reason he can't say

Scherkie - When I touched Serpico's hand for a moment, I saw a sad face of Farnazze. And Serpico is not sure of this either...

Scherkie - And it's not right! Farnazze was so serious about learning magic

Scherkie - And even taking care of Casca...! And now this all of a sudden...

page 06

Scherkie - Ah, as soon as I take my eye's off of you

Guts - Not really into sticking my nose into other people's businesses.

Guts - But it just doesnt feel good

Guts - Alright little's guy's

Ivarella - What do you mean little's guys

Guts - I have a favor to ask. Something only elves can do

page 07

Puck - I'm kinda excited. The secret noble report

Ivarela - Now don't get too excited now

Ivarela - Don't lose him

Puck - Roger

page 09

Ivarela - Wow, this is great. Like a celebrety

servent - The supper...!?

Puck - But we lost Serpico in the process

Ivarela - Y yes! What you lying down after eating! Dont be all calm after losing him

Ivarela - Huh?

Puck - Stop

Ivarela - It's Farnazze! She's all dressed up like a princess! How stuck up of her! She's my servant!

page 10

Magnifico - This is where you were Farnazze

Farnazze - brother

Magnifico - I'm happy that you accepted my offer. Do not worry, I will not make it go bad

Magnifico - Let me introduce you to my old friend

page 11

Rodrik - It is a pleasure to meet you Farnazze de Vandimion. I am Rodrik of Schtaofen(sp?Huh?) of the Eath(sp?Huh) fleet

page 12

Magnifico - Greet him, he's your future husband

Rodrik - I would greatly be pleased if you would call me Rodrik, miss farnazze

Farnazze - A pleasure to meet you Rodrik. please call me Farnazze as well

Ivarela - He hey hey hey hey! What is this!?

page 14

Magnifico - Rodrik is an old friend from school, and is third in line for the throne of Eath and is also Captain of the Eath fleet

Rodrik - I have heard much about you from your brother

Rodrik - The demon child of Vandimion and the wandering princess

Magnifico - Hey Rodrik, you shouldn't start off with that all of a sudden

Farnazze - Yes. That is true

page 14

Rodrik - You're interesteing

Magnifico - Look Farnazze

Magnifico - All these roses in this green house. They were all prepared for you by Rodrik

page 15

Farnazze - All of this....wow

Rodrik - I was to meet the daughter of the Vandimion family and I went a little out of hand. Did you like it?

Farnazze - I am happy Rodrik. Thank you Rodrik

Rodrik - Really!? You make a great picture surrounded by roses!

Rodrik - ..but I can't seem to like roses myself

Magnifico - um, do you want to get liked or not?

Rodrik - Roses are the nobles among flowers. It gives off the impression of it being all high up and grows with domineeringness. All other flowers are just extra

Rodrik - Yes, just like all the women of nobles. They dress up to see who can be more beautiful. In a green house called the nobility class

page 16

Rodrik - But even those roses, when hundreds and thousands gather, all look the same

Rodrik - These roses are most worthy of decorate you

Rodrik - Even strong winds will not blow you away. The white lily in the field

page 17

Ivarela - Wait now! This is a scandal!!

Ivarela - We can't stay here! We're goin back! We have to tell everyone!

Ivarela - Spread the gossip!

page 18

Isidro - Farnazze

Scherkie - Engaged!?

Isidro - What is that?

Scherkie - Is this true Ivarela

Ivarela - It's true it's true! We just went and saw the other man

Ivarela - "These roses are most worthy of decorate you," or something like that. So cool!

Ivarela - But it seemed all natural and Farnazze seemed into it too

Isidro - She's marrying him so she can't come with us anymore?

Ivarela - Well, I guess so

Isidro - Then why didn't they just say so. Suddely making it seem like they're cutting ties with us

Ivarela - It's embarrasing for a noble to be friends with a monkey like you

Isidro - And weird insects like you guys

Ivarela - What!?

Scherkie - ...I dont think so

page 19

Scherkie - Farnazze was serious and pure about learning magic. She was carrying that silver knife so preciously

Scherkie - It's Farnazze that Casca is most fond of. I cannot take care of Casca that well

Isidro - But even that silver knife got returned. Even learning magic could've been just a simple game for a noble

Scherkie - You always have too much to say

Guts - It's the other way around

page 20

Guts - She will marry to get a ship ready. It's something like that

Scherkie - Y yes! That I can see!

Isidro - I get it

Guts - Expedient marriage's are normal between nobles. And she's the daughter of a high noble as well which we forgot about...

Isidro - Well, what are we going to do?

Guts - I'd like to say it's somethign she decided on her own..

page 21

Isidro - Hey!

Isidro - Uh oh

Guts - It's decided

Guts - A ship in exchange for taking care of Casca and a good meal just doesn't add up

what do you guys think will happen? will Guts go and save her or keep on his journey?


I think he will go save her because the story has been getting a bit cheesy out of lately...

though if they play it true to his character, Guts should just go on with his journey... and the only reason he might have to save her is if he finds out that there are demons behind the plot....

Nah Guts will save her cause like he said cause he knows that it isnt her choice to stay behind and he is too soft nowadays. Also as the witch said Farnese is the only one who is good at taking care of his love aka Casca. Even if he didnt care about Farnese he would go save her for Caska's sake.


I think he will have problem with getting her back since Magnifico and Rodrik will not let Farnese go and that is a good thing cause then Guts has to kick thier asses.

Do you guys remember the girl that works for Griffith, the psychic or witch. She mentioned something about getting out of the city soon because it would be ruins. Is Griffith and his army about to attack? Or are they going to demand that the city joins him?

Do you think this battle is going to take place while Gatts is rescuing Farnese, and whether they would get a boat and escape in time?

kAi
Wed, 03-02-2005, 11:50 PM
hmm, yeah well that's something else, it could be an attack from Griffiths, but it could also be the Harashada's boss (Master Diva and the people on the big ship, c243p18). The Harashada's (casters) were the ones that controlled those alligator/crocodile things. The Hawks may fight the guys on that ship.

If Guts is to be involved I think it would be a more minor role, getting Farneze and Serpico and the others on a boat and getting away from there and to elfheim where Guts will be healed up properly will be the main focus, but he will kill some but he is to injured to fight completely, or to go up verse an apostle.

Let's keep the discussion going everyone, pitch in with ideas and what not.

Hmm. Then why did the psychic girl project the city destroyed? Unless Griffith is doing nothing to stop it. Or is going to save them, but it's just telling them that there would be war.

Yeah, forgot about Master Diva, Griffith is probably going to get his head.

Okay, maybe this is just me, but have you guys noticed that Caska has gotten VERY thin? All of her muscles are gone now, she just looks like a skinny model. Maybe it's just my mind playing tricks but if Muira did intentionally make Caska look skinnier and less toned, it's really cool how he showed her body's physical digression from months of doing jack.

Edit:
Just before Griffith's rescue from the dungeon.

I also noticed that most, if not all, of her wounds/scars on her body are nonvisible now. I'm guessing it's cuz she has been out of the action for quite some time so they must've healed pretty well.

Caska is such a cool character, I wish she'd stop acting batshit insane... :(

SilentSnake
Mon, 03-07-2005, 07:38 AM
Not only that, Guts seems "smaller" too, probably because of not eating so much as earlier (they're travelling all the time, they're not rich and berserker's armor already had it's effect on him as well).

I think It's Miura doing that on purpose, that kind of details just show how much he is devoted to the manga, these are details we wouldn't think about at first, but seem logical.

Hakeem_21
Mon, 03-07-2005, 02:11 PM
Everyone has got thinner cause they are on the road most of time without eating to good.

Its realistic, it would be lame if they didnt get thinner with the way they live right now.

Guts started going downhill after his fight with Slan, he got a bad injury, then he had his fight with grunbeld, then he got the armor and has been using it since, and just it's just fucking him up.

Casca's just been doing nothing, that's why she is skinny, not fighting and keeping up her muscle, and yeah those scars had time to heal. I think we will see Casca in action again but later on, when she is back to normal and after her initial reaction of being bullshit insane

Damn, I can't believe i put off reading this manga for so long. I just read from chapter 1 to 252 in the past few days, such an incredible story. I've never seen anyone draw rage as well as Miura, really pumps you up. Glad I missed all those breaks though, cause i'd be as out of it as Casca, waiting months to find out what happens next. But anyways shit yeah, can't wait till friday.

Well at least you finally read it. I've been telling people for ages, this is the best manga and forever will be, as other people will say!

What is annoying me at the moment is that there's no preview, and it's released tomorrow. I always love seeing the preview coz then i know it's coming the following friday. ARGH, it's driving me insane, but it should be out tomorrow sometime!
