post yfw 30 years from now a 19 y/o will read all 500 chapters of berserk in a month

>a month
fucking casuals

>not taking a breather after golden age arc

I'm just glad we're getting more than 2-3 chapters a year again.

"It sure is sad the writer died before completing it. Oh well, guess I'll catch up with One Piece now."

Yep that'll be me.

>implying Berserk will ever reach chapter 400
I burned through everything up to the end of Conviction arc in a couple of weeks. Took me a couple of months to finish the rest.

"It sure is sad the writer was arrested for having CP. Oh well, guess I'll catch up with HxH now."

What's the story behind this CP meme?

rurouni kenshin mangaka got caught with it

Damn. Isn't the legal age in Japan 13 though? Like you can get away with pretty young.

>a month
you underestimate my speed reading
I'll do it in a week

>thinking about getting into Berserk
>read this thread
>500

Just do it man. The first few arcs are incredible and there's enough of a quality dip that you won't care about waiting for new chapters.

>Taking a breather after golden age arc

Nigga as soon as shit started going down I powered 15 hours until I got too exhausted

This. Golden Age arc is the easiest read in manga, at least out of the series I've read. I'd get into bed thinking I'd just read a couple of chapters, and next thing I knew the sun was rising. How did it go from being so perfect to completely unremarkable?

Is this bait at this point? It's been pretty clearly explained a thousand times that Federal age of consent is 13 but Prefectures (regions) set their own laws, which are all 18.

>500 chapters
You should consider yourself lucky if we ever reach 375 chapters

You're under the assumption that I've read posts on Sup Forums explaining the consent laws in Japan.

Its actually pretty easy to get lost in the chapters.
Took me about two weeks to read all of them.
They are pretty good
>People died without finishing reading the story

I feel happy for those people who won't have to deal with the bullshit we do. Who'll be free to read without hiatus.

>People died without finishing reading the story
I just hope they didn't have to witness the Guts harem.

You can't get upset about the hiatus if you don't care about the story anymore.

>30 years from now
>implying a 50yo mangaka like Miura would live past their 70's

As someone who has yet to read berserk but really wants to, I have kept myself from starting it over the last 3 years just because I see how much pain you guys are in and I would rather wait 30 years and read the entire thing when I'm 55 assuming I don't die of overdose on whatever I might get addicted to than experience this misery.

...

We'll probably live to see non-vegetable Caska next year, have hope bruddah

>hope
bro,i read berserk from 1991, i don't know anymore the meaning of that word

honestly I recommend joining us. I finished a couple of months ago and came across a screenshot of a thread when the boat arc ended. Oddly enough I had a sense of jealousy for all the people in the thread who went through that awful 7-8 year struggle and I wished I could've been one of them. Something nice about being a part of a negative group

I swear, the drop in quality will keep you from getting too enthusiastic about the next chapter. Berserk has amassed a name for itself due to its earlier arcs (although there's still the occasional fantastic moment).

>easiest read in manga
I'm not saying a break from reading too much. A break because of reading some serious shit... And to be more clear the final moments of the arc

Oh I got you. I just enjoy dicksucking Golden Age.

500 would be shooting for the stars

>OH I got you, I just enjoy Dicksucking
Stopped reading there.

Post your face when Miura gets jailed for possessing cheese pizza

only 2 or 3 chapters came out in an entire fucking year, at this rate in 30 years time there will only be another 60-90 chapters?

mfw

NEXT CHAPTER WHEN

how does Miura stay employed when he doesn't work?

>AAAAAAAA LOOK AT THIS POPULAR SERIES THAT WE DONT LIKE UGH AAAAA WHIIIRRRR LETS ALL GET TOGETHER AND FUCK WITH THEM AND TRY TO KICK THEM OFF THE BOARD FOR LIKING THIS SERIES LOL HAW HAW HEE HEE WE ARE SUPERIOR TO DEM RIGHT GUYS. REMBER TO FUCK WIT NARUTARDS CAUSE DEY IS BAD. JAJAJAJAJA OOGA BOOGA CHAKA LAKA CLICK CLICK TRAPS ARENT GAY DESU YOOOOOO. OHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

It's out, or if you mean the one after the one recently released then it said late january

What's with hiatus laden series and boats?

he survives off instant ramen and idolmaster games, he's probably made enough money already he can live the rest of his life like this

>This manga is pretty good. I wonder how long this new hiatus will last.

He said he wanted to return in winter 2017, so hes sure to drop another chapter in the following weeks, right? Right?

He already dropped a chapter you baka baka baka

>people bitching about the new Jojo season taking ages to come out
>mfw living through Duwang and the non existent translations of the other parts

Try two weeks ago.

Shit, didnt even see that. Gonna read, come back and continue to complain then.

Volume 13 until chapter 352 in about 4 days. One month is overrated

What're you talking about?
See you in 2 minutes speed-reader

>Panels are right to left
>Speech bubbles are left to right
Your image is shit.

>Speech bubbles are left to right
No, they aren't.

>volume 13 starts with chapter 87
>actually 352 chapters
>352 - 86 = 266
>in ~4 days
>time for 500 chapters here = (4 / 266) * 500 = 7.5 days
>7.5 days = 1/4 of a month
>1 month > 1/4 * month

Overrated was certainly not the best word to explain it but thank to you and this mathematical demonstration, I now can express my ideas in a crystal clear way.

Also next time OP wants to bait us with this subject, remember to say a week instead of a month.

Unnecessary addition here. The prefectures range from 16-18. But I am pretty sure the legal age to consent to have yourself published in porn is 18 across the country.

pleb

...

Can this meme stop. where is this drop in quality start and what made it so unremarkable.

Apparently the drop in quality starts when one finishes his speedread and has to wait for new chapters.

why would you speedread? You can't properly take in the beauty of Miura's art and you'll probably forget stuff

I had a friend who speedread all of Berserk in 3 days and he had huge gaps in his memory. I talked about the part where Guts rode Zodd to fight Ganishka and he had NO idea what I was talking about despite it being one of the manga's biggest action setpieces

The art quality noticeably drops around chapter 340. Many anons argue that the story does too after Golden Age/Lost Children. I blame Luca.

>The art quality noticeably drops around chapter 340
Just a few chapters long meme when he switched to digital. Last few chapters were stellar. You're complaining for the sake of complaining.

Golden age fags are as bad as genwunners

Lost Children and Boat Ride are best arcs. Conviction is worst.

...

If Lost Children is as good as it gets until Boat, is it even worth pushing through if I thought Lost Children was cliché and trite?

No way. Sea God is the worst. At least Conviction moved the plot forward.
And it didn't have those goddamn pirates.

>Hating on Luca
Kys your self

Pirates were unimaginable fun and the sea god is just the coolest fight except for the earlier mentioned Zod team up. Who cares about plot moving forward.

Golden Age was so good. I don't think I've ever seen such good characters as Guts, Casca, and Griffith in anything else that I've ever watched, read, or otherwise. It's honestly incredible.

I understand Guts and Griffith, but why Casca? She is your typical "STRUNG WEMEN" character, that gets saved by the MC every goddamn time. She is hot, though.

Is guts the most moe character every created?

Just because she's part of the trio that drives the story forward. Without her, the exposition of Guts' and Griffith's character isn't possible. She's a less interesting character, but an essential part of what drives the story.

Plus she got rekt when fighting on her period, that was pretty great.

Guts isn't interesting either, he's the typical "INCREDIBLY STRONG" brooding MC

Only two of those descriptors are accurate. He's not typical at all.

He has a lot of emotional depth actually, and his relationships and backstory with the other characters make the series pretty enjoyable.

Guts is the text book example on how to write a strong/edgy character without making him a Gary Stu/boring. It is a damn shame Guts was created by a lazy son of a bitch like Miura. By far, my favorite MC of any anime/manga.

>lazy son of a bitch like Miura
>drawing a manga of this quality consistently for twenty years before the hiatuses
shut the fuck up

...

oh god I didn't even notice that. At least there's interesting shit going on inside, but now I think I'm bias-dly against this

Luca is my wife, how dare you.

only thing cool about the sea god fight was guts having to be told how many more steps to the heart as he was getting killed by the heartbeat. Everything else wasn't grand

>the kid who introduced me to Berserk and anime/manga in general is dead
>reading new chapters that he never will
It's a terrible feeling

I'm a nineteen year old and I read all 500 chapters of it in a week a couple months ago.

What did Araki mean by this?

The only reason people dont like the boat arc is because it wasnt pushing the plot constantly like the others and it was suring the constant hiatuses so people got fustrated

>Casca healed next year
Fuck off cunt, it will be this year. In fact, I'm positive that after switching to digital and finally coming back with them chapters without needing an anime release to do it is a good sign.

I think we will start getting monthly Berserk again fellas, and Casca is like two or four chapters away from healing or final potatoing.

So you can read it again

actually fucking maybe, but you take a picture of it you go to jail.

>that was me 4 years ago
help
