Just started watching Berserk because of the new series

>Just started watching Berserk because of the new series
>Watched all 3 movies and read the manga
>This fucking scene

Holy fucking shit this has got to be the most hardcore scene I've ever seen in anime. Like, this nigga legit rapes her in front of her lover whilst he rips off his own arm and gets his eye gouged out.

This puts every other "suffering" manga to shame. . .like holy shit I'm still in awe and still very hard

>Holy fucking shit this has got to be the most edgy scene
ftfy

I feel like most people who haven't read Berserk are now reading like their first manga or something. Hey at least its a start and it could be worse

>This puts every other "suffering" manga to shame
watch texhnolyze

If you have more dark shit like this not edgetier shit I will happily take a recommendation.

>texhnolyze
will do user it looks interesting

I thought it was pretty gay

dont get why people enjoy "suffering" anything

Yeah, I doesn't get more heavy metal than Berserk

Blade of the Immortal

And to think she loved every single second of it

It's not that I enjoy the suffering, it's more I'm really offput about it. Like, most anime, even the more brutal ones are too much of a pussy to do something like this.

You compare this to edgetier shit like Tokyo Ghoul where people scream about how tortued Kaneki was, and it just does not compare in the slightest.

That's what I like, shit that other shows just won't do.

I was mad FOR Guts. God fucking damn that was brutal.

Fuck off Faggith apologist

I dropped it after this shit desu, still mad

>tfw your best friend turns into a bird and rapes your girl
Try anime like tehxnolyze
For manga
Blade of the immortal
Kingdom more edgy than dark
Kokou no Hito shit in the beginning
Blame!
No longer human
Dorohedoro

>tfw your best friend turns into a bird and rapes your girl
This nigga joined a criminal group called hawk and then stole his best friend's girl. Confirmed plagiarist.

Cringe jokes aside, I'm watching the first episode of Tehxnolyze right now and am confused as fuck. Will continue on with the rest of those recommendations after.

Thanks user

I've read a shit ton of manga, and just started Berserk. I'm really liking it, too.
I do mostly read edgy stuff and shonenshit, though.

based on your posts you would probably like Gantz
The manga is much better than the anime

Griffith just finally gave Casca the D she wanted.

100% pure edge

you type like a bitchy eighth grader.

>Berserk fans

Nothing you guys do surprise me anymore

You don't understand edge.

Now and Then, Here and There is also a good show for people that like depressing shit.

We all do.

This your first manga?

Too bad real Berserk ended a long time ago.

Black Swordsman arc + Golden Age arc + Lost Children arc = Berserk.

Everything after that is basically a different story (with characters from Berserk). If you read the whole manga you will see what I mean.

2016 looks actually gay.

Not saying it's anywhere on par with the Eclipse but I recently watched this series and this nigga's death was pretty fucking brutal AND ballsy:

youtube.com/watch?v=MIT8mitaoB4

I've rad it thrice and you're fucking retarded.

Someone got triggered.

But seriously, Berserk went downhill after the Lost Children arc ended. It was supposed to be about Guts' personal war to avenge his fallen comrades, NOT a Lord Of The Rings rip-off (Casca = the ring) and a nice, happy D&D party.

It's probably too late now to save Berserk. Miura knows that he fucked up when he decided to change the theme of the story 180 degrees. Why do you think Berserk is now being published irregularly? Because Miura himself is no longer interested in Berserk.

Think about it.

>It was supposed to be about Guts' personal war to avenge his fallen comrades
There has always been more to Berserk than that m8.

Well I think him being with the party shows his character development after being a psychopathic killer that despises everyone to being more accepting like how it happened with the band of the hawk so the new group is kind of like the band of the hawk ( embarrassing i know). Miura can probably unfuck it though if the whole party dies if griffith does start a sacrifice in Falconia and Guts kills casca after she cant be cured (unless she also dies in the sacrifice).

Well, wasn't it also some kind of "Senpai-finally-noticed-me"-scene...

>after the Lost Children arc ended
So 2 arcs total of Gut's personal war? The whole point is that Gut's personal war was futile. This is why he lost Casca in the 2nd part of conviction arc and had to retrieve/save her. Gut's personal war is a wild goose chase for the first 2 arc (barring Golden Age of course), Guts got hammered hard that he lost Casca for the 2nd time.

Well, unpopular opinion, but every arc until Schierke apppeared was good. After Schierkes appearance, it went downhill...

Of course dude. This is the best absolute dark story of manga that I ever read.

That Fucking BITCHH !!! I'm disguted by that man or rather piece of shit. What's actually he's purpose ?! fucking woman like that. Fuck that bitch

>>It was supposed to be about Guts' personal war to avenge his fallen comrades
>There has always been more to Berserk than that m8.

There wasn't.

This is why the Black Swordsman arc was published first and the Golden Age was a giant flashback arc. This is why the Lost Children arc continues right where the Black Swordsman arc left off and why Guts matures by the end of Lost Children and his Beast of Darkness is introduced.

THAT is how Berserk should have continued. Miura isn't a terrible writer but let's be honest, almost everything after Lost Children was an asspull.

If Griffith was planning to "come back" why wasn't this even hinted at during the Black Swordsman arc when Guts met him in the astral plane?

If the Kushan Empire was such a threat and on the march to conquer the world why were they never mentioned during the Golden Age arc? It's an asspul. Consider that the Bakiraka guys were portrayed as mercenaries for hire from the far east in the Golden Age arc, BUT then we find out that they are actually the Kushan Empire's special forces. That's dumb writing. WTF were these guys working for the King of Midland and why were they allowed to live and work in Midland in the first place?

And the BIGGEST asspull of them all. If Guts loves Casca so much why doesn't he remember her at all during the Black Swordsman and Lost Children arcs?

And hell, I'm one of those fans who actually liked the berserker armor and I think that it makes a lot of sense for Guts to have it.
I liked the idea of apostles fighting as an organized military unit, just not the way it was done.
Now if Berserk became more like The Running Man (after the Lost Children arc ended) with apostles organizing a mercenary band to hunt Guts down, it would have been a much better story than what Miura did.

Gut's solo war is a wild goose chase. It's been hammered down multiple times that it's about protecting Casca. Even Guts admitted his mistake. This is why the anime picks up right after Lost Children.

You're one of those people who completely missing the point and thought that the marines should've won in Avatar

Violence Jack if you want pure edge for the sake of edge
Devilman if you want a Berserk tier "dark as fuck but with a story that justifies it" style manga.
Fist of the North Star was lots of Violence too
I mention these three because theyre Miuras main influences outside of western movies and Guin Saga
Now if youre just into some blood and titties (and who isnt?) There like 1000 1980's OVAs for you to watch. Usually with much better animation than youll see today

I think the Count arc pretty solidly showed that trying to fight Femto is just throwing Guts life away. You cant beat reality warping powers with just a sword.

>>after the Lost Children arc ended
>So 2 arcs total of Gut's personal war? The whole point is that Gut's personal war was futile.

Uh what? He was hunting down and killing the monsters who killed his friends... which is exactly what he vowed to do right after surviving the Eclipse.

>Gut's personal war is a wild goose chase

I must be reading a different manga then. Did you forget that the Count, and Rosine, and her friends attacked and ate some of the members of the Band Of The Hawk even before the Eclipse happened. And don't forget what the Count did to Pippin during the Eclipse. They were evil scum that had to die, and that's exactly what we see happen.

Just because Guts couldn't do anything to Griffith when they met in the astral plane doesn't make Guts' war of revenge pointless. Every time Guts kills an apostle the world becomes a better place. But we also saw that apostles (other than Wyald) aren't just 1-dimensional villains with no story or personality. THAT is how Berserk should have continued.

>After Schierkes appearance, it went downhill...

It did. I hate how she became the 2nd most important hero in the story. I hate the idea that Guts and Schierke are "destined" to be together. This wasn't needed at all. And I really hate that she is a kid. Who the hell wants to see a smartass loli in a manga like Berserk? Why did Miura think this was a good idea? At least Jill went home when the Lost Children arc ended, and Erica doesn't play a major role in the story.

I thought the idea that he was this cold beast who could endure a one man war against the supernatural was thrown out the window in the first chapters before the flashback.

Not only was the power of the God Hand utterly overwhelming, he's shown having a small breakdown in that one famous panel as he leaves the Count's castle after dealing with his daughter. The sheer mental and emotional distress he was going through was eating away at him and he was barely surviving, let alone the physical torture he put his body through.

It seems natural that he would have to find help along the way; it emphasizes the sheer scale of what he was against. Futility is a common theme in the series and Gut's initial journey after the Eclipse encapsulate that.

Oyasumi Punpun if you wanna be depressed. Not an action manga but shits fucked

faggot

And that's why the Beast Of Darkness and the berserker armor were introduced.

Ignore apostle shills

You're ignoring the bigger picture and the mental and emotional aspects

The Golden Age should have hammered this home. Guts was a prodigy in combat with nearly superhuman ability but it wasn't enough. Comradery and Casca changed him for the better.

I think any emotional depths would be neutered if Guts could just rage his way through absolutely everything alone and be successful, and the series certainly wouldn't be as compelling.

Holy fuck what a speed reader. Your only legitimate complaint is that Griffith's motivations weren't clear from his first appearance, which is likely because yes, Miura hadn't gotten around to plotting that out completely yet.

>If the Kushan Empire was such a threat and on the march to conquer the world why were they never mentioned during the Golden Age arc? It's an asspull.

Nobody saw the Ottomans coming, either.

>Consider that the Bakiraka guys were portrayed as mercenaries for hire from the far east in the Golden Age arc, BUT then we find out that they are actually the Kushan Empire's special forces. That's dumb writing. WTF were these guys working for the King of Midland and why were they allowed to live and work in Midland in the first place?

Because they were, they make a plot point of the fact that these guys are primarily a mercenary/assassin force that was co-opted by Emperor Ganishka. They had been going around hiring themselves out for hundreds of years prior to that.

>And the BIGGEST asspull of them all. If Guts loves Casca so much why doesn't he remember her at all during the Black Swordsman and Lost Children arcs?

Dude was drowning himself. He ran away to what he thought he knew best, killing, and went deeper and deeper until hanging around Puck too much reminded him of what he left behind.

That should have been true for Ganishka as well. Combined with SK's rifting abilities, he might be able to strike a blow or two. But the final battle will not be fought with blades

I actually like all the magic stuff in Berserk.

>until hanging around Puck too much reminded him of what he left behind
not him but it wasn't puck that reminded him, it was his deformed child that warned him of the danger. The one who called Guts out on his bullshit was Godo. I don't know what the problem with Sup Forums is but that moment before the tower of conviction was probably the biggest character development for Guts and was very important for the series.

>Watched the movies
>Not the anime

You fucked up pretty bad. You don't even know what the fuck you're even talking about.

The movies are painfully mediocre. The anime is GOAT.

Seconding Devilman and Violence Jack. Devilman in particular is a legitimate masterpiece.

should I pick this back up
I watched through something episode 4 or 5 and dropped it because I couldn't understand anything that was going on

I only picked it up because robot limbs are rad and shit and I would willingly remove my fully functional right arm and replace it with a cool robot arm

Kek nice trips

Was anyone else extremely disappointed by Devilman? I can't believe something so generic even by 1970s standards inspired Miura.

It's probably got the slowest start of any anime I know. The MC literally spending 3 episodes trying to climb up and down some stairs is super painful to get through. Everything afterwards is solid gold.

I can understand that. Berserk and especially that scene manage to just strike at your core in ways others don't. No pussying around.

>Was anyone else extremely disappointed by Devilman?

I was going to make a point about how Berserk is the only manga anyone ever reads but was met with this instead.

turns out I don't know fucking anything. Tokyo Fucking Ghoul is about to over take it.

He's gonna be K-ON-tier in the year 2020

10-15 years ago you were probably right. But I don't think MAL's audience has to patience to sit through nearly 350 chapters.

I've always thought people were too hard on 1997 Griffith. I think that the original series' style is the best we could have hoped for.

>He's gonna be K-ON-tier in the year 2020

Leaked concept art

Not an asspull. It was more mystical.

>re-read berserk
>seeing caska not retarded
>remember how much i liked her
>get to OP part

NEVER FORGIVE! GRIFFITH WILL PAY!

you got to admit, it impressive that a series 30 years old is even on that list

Everybody who knew about it told him he wasn't going to win it. They are right.

You all know Casca will be killed the moment they fix her brain problems, right?

nah. she will live alone though beacuse everyone else will die.

>she leaves Guts for Griffith

>implying there won't be a training montage to get her up to strength

>elf king removes her brand
>mind starts to return
>remembers everything, even the things guts did when he was berserk to her
>activates his behelit
>guts has to fight enraged casca

can you leave Sup Forums please

so we get a new chapter in like a week, do you think we'll get on to the elf king by the end of it?

>Speedlines are better than mediocre cgi

Watch Re:Zero, it's a lot better and the best anime to come.

I don't see how you can be upset that Tokyo Ghoul might be about to overtake it when Shitgeki and even Naruto Tail already did.

>Expecting progress

It'll be another Griffith interlude and you know it. Probably a Sonia episode just to kick you in the dick that bit harder

>Re: Zero > Berserk

i miss 1997 so much

>you will never be love heart batman

How could this shock you? she's almost raped like 90 times leading up to this point

Reading chapter by chapter must be fucking torture. Why not at least wait until a volume is done before reading on?

>Nobody saw the Ottomans coming, either.
Not to mention the Sea Peoples, Goths, Huns, Mongols, The Conquistadors landing in the Americas, etc.

Know it's kind of hard to imagine in the modern world, but there are plenty of instances throughout history of civilizations being attacked by invaders that come essentially out of nowhere. Hell, the Mongols hit Hungary so suddenly and so ferociously that they were honestly convinced they were the heralds of Gog and Magog coming to herald the end times for a time.

i do too, i dont know what everyones on about

>Sup Forums suddenly pretends to hate berserk
>to the point that people are saying the stupidest shit like saying that the art is bad
I won't ask what happened because its pretty obvious what happened

But to answer OP's question I think that no matter how much one tries to compare it, the eclipse definitely is one of the most brutal scenes/moments of all manga. The rape alone is nothing by itself though

>elsa as the ero-elf
Muh

because you'd be waiting like 5 years for the next volume to be completed

The rape scene is incredibly graphic for something that's not a hentai.

>YFW

I'm patiently waiting for this. SK has already foreshadowed that something huge is going to happen when Casca is cured and it won't be good. Plus, there're those repeated warnings from the hell hound as well.

I just can't be mad at 2012 Griffith.
