Isma > Schierke
>liking an impure girl that lust over older mans penis

>>134165966
You know she hung around in Flora's tree house and apparently time there flows differently too, because Flora doesn't changed at all in 50 years since she gave a medicine for that old dude from the village when he was a kid. So, Shierke probably was born before Guts and there is a possibility that she might be his older sister.
She'll probably die from embaressment when Guts will call her "onee-san".

I don't really want Caska to go back to normal, since she'd probably cut her hair and go back to dressing like a man.

Why do people think that this is a wrong island? Even Puck recognizes it, so why would they go back on the boat?

>>134166713
People were on the boat for so long, they can no longer function on land. They yearn back to the high seas, where they could do battle with pirates forever.

There are probably some anons who have since died in te 7/8 years we've been on the boat, and a handful might even have glanced back and though 'I never got to witness them leaving that boat'.

The guy with the sunglasses is Toshiyuki Kubooka, director of the Berserk movies. He is also the character designer of the original Idolmaster. They are laughing because they think that Miura chosed him only because idolmaster. Then they talk with Miura on the phone and he says that his favourite Idol is "Chii-chan" or Chihaya because she has a "stoic" personality like Casca.

I always knew that something was wrong with scythes as portrayed in media (with a handle-less pole), as it looked rather impractical to literally reap with.

Threshing scythes really aren't straight, either. They're REALLY fucking weirdly curved.

There is a war scythe that's, I suppose, adapted from the peasant tool, which IS straight, and has no handles, and was effective enough as a pole-arm, since it's kind of hard to go wrong with "metal blade on a long stick". Pic related.

I hope if and when things go bad they don't go horrible, instead it's something like renewed Casca wanting revenge as some have speculated. She WAS a firey lass.

I think his name was Tom Hanks. That was the name I kept moaning as he filled my ass with his wisdom. Berserk will get a new post-Eclipse anime by 2020. Casca NTRs Guts with Serpico.

He lost Godo too albeit he died of old age.
>It's not like he lost Casca before or later.
He technically did when he attacked her when possessed. Any brief friends or anyone he met dies very quickly, its even shown right at the start when the old man and the girl in the carriage die. His current party is there, but they'll either split or die, i suspect Schierke won't since she's his only ticket to becoming an 'outsider' to the whole story like Skully suggested and partly due to Miura having a weak spot for kids

>>134169014
Cancer.

>>134171221
All those relationships he made while the black swordsman were deliberately brief anyway, he made basically no significant connections partly because he was still hurting and partly because it was dangerous for anyone to get caught up with him.

And Godo was another natural death, not a tragedy. It was a miracle that old man was alive when he MET Guts.

Incredible how low has the Berserk's quality fallen.

>>134171303
He also lost his child.

>>134171358
Technically part of the Eclipse, corrupted because of Femto.

I really, really hope shit doesn't go bad when Caska gets her brain healed (if she fucking does) because Guts seriously needs this, can you imagine how much weight will just fall off the guys shoulders if Caska is healed? Can you imagine how he'll act when she finally wraps her arms around him again? CAN YOU!?

Also how long has it been, in universe, since the Eclipse? If it's been a few years I imagine Caska's body will be out of training and she probably won't be able to provide much in terms of combat support if she does get healed and joins in the hunt for the God Hand

>>134171381
Then he lost it again when Griffith resurrected

>>134171387
>CAN YOU!?
Yes. He'll throw away his sword and the berserker armor and starts farming.

>>134170897
We'll know if we have a scene of Puck walking in on an elf orgy

>>134171493
Either way
>All those relationships he made while the black swordsman were deliberately brief anyway
Doesn't negate the point that he loses everyone he meets one way or another

>partly because he was still hurting and partly because it was dangerous for anyone to get caught up with him
It still is and it still will be dangerous as long as he has the brand, and as long as he has it, tragedy will follow. Even if Casca gets cured, i seriously doubt someone of her caliber would be capable of standing up to apostles not to mention the mental strain that even was gnawing away at Guts. Inevitably he will end up losing her again one way or another

>>134171602

What do you think they use those long-ass ears for?

>>134171387
I think, going by what Skull Knight said, when Casca is healed it'll be happiness but relatively brief happiness. She'll be like Guts was 2 years ago: mad as Hell and out for revenge.

>>134171630
>Doesn't negate the point that he loses everyone he meets one way or another
It kind of does, seeing as he hasn't lost anyone else since he stopped thinking like that.

>>134171689
>seeing as he hasn't lost anyone else since he stopped thinking like that.
Its irrelevant, it changed when he joined up with his current party, and I'm telling you they're going to split one way or another simply if you refer to any previous case. Either that or he won't be human anymore like Skully warned him cause the party is putting a strain on him

>>134165162
Yeah I was reminded of Dark Souls after reading this chapter. They really do resemble the vine creatures from Oolacile.

>>134171802
Despite how often they've said "Guts won't end up like Skull Knight", you believe he'll still end up like Skull Knight? Guts' whole character is defying fate, not following it.

And it's not irrelevant, you're just ignoring it for some reason. His temperament, and situation made it so he wasn't connecting, both changed and now he's connecting without losses. Really, the whole point of this was to show that Guts could heal again, not that he must suffer all the time. That would go directly against what Rickert bitched to him about ages ago. His modus operandi is to stop shoving people away and to start protecting them.

I don't see why his party would always stay with him, yes, but I don't see how them splitting up should be tragic either. People come and go, they don't have to die violently or suffer a bitter parting.

This is a pretty good chapter. I mean even apart from the fact that they left the boat, it was pretty interesting, and the art seems to be good again. Also, we saw regular Puck for a few panels.

Also, I was right, time on the island is slower than outside, not faster.

>>134172032
>and the art seems to be good again

When was the art ever bad? Falconia and Batman Rickert had some stunning backgrounds and visuals.

>>134172083
>Falconia and Batman Rickert had some stunning backgrounds
They did, but I don't know, something just felt really off to me. It didn't really feel like Miura's art anymore to me. This chapter also gives me this feeling as well, but MUCH less than the last few ones.

>>134171971
>Guts' whole character is defying fate
And thats what Skully did too

>and situation made it so he wasn't connecting
His situation isn't changed, he still has the brand, those charms can only work for so long, especially now when the astral and physical are merged.

>His modus operandi is to stop shoving people away and to start protecting them.
His modus operandi is swinging his sword flavored with revenge, i doubt that making Casca normal would make him give up on it.

>the whole point of this was to show that Guts could heal again, not that he must suffer all the time
His situation won't allow it, no matter how much he wishes for it
>but I don't see how them splitting up should be tragic either
They either stay on the island, which i doubt Griffith will leave alone since its loaded with witches, or they leave it, in a world that's now merged with the astral one, meaning its even more dangerous than before.

>>134166139
>Puck the Jar Jar of Berserk
Pretty much.

I had hoped that returning to Elfhelm would show the grounded side of his character again, but his comic relief has grated on me ever since the Eclipse ended.

>>134172141
I think you might be projecting your bad experience of the boatsappointment onto the art, really. Not that I blame anyone after all this time.

Getting rid of it is one of his goals.

>His modus operandi is swinging his sword flavored with revenge, i doubt that making Casca normal would make him give up on it.
Just wrong. Incorrect. Reread post-conviction. He's given up on revenge and sworn to protect. While revenge still remains at his back, he put it away. Put it in chains, in fact.

>His situation won't allow it, no matter how much he wishes for it
He's not simply wishing. Are you even reading this? He's trying. The whole reason he's trying is since he used to have this mindset you're claiming, about how it was pretty much hopeless so just fuck it. Miura could go BUT IT STILL DIDN'T MATTER IN THE END but that would be HORRIBLE writing. Doing the same thing twice by building things up and taking it all away should just make most readers roll their eyes.

>They either stay on the island, which i doubt Griffith will leave alone since its loaded with witches, or they leave it, in a world that's now merged with the astral one, meaning its even more dangerous than before.
and where's the tragedy

>time dilation
>it takes 216 years to have another eclipse
YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS

The party's gotten pretty big by this point. I wish they could dial down on the Puck jokes and give the rest of the group a chance to talk.

So if Guts leaves Casca on Elf Island, he'll never get to see her again?

>>134172504
Nah. I'm pretty sure they'll come out like 10-15 years later when Rickert has finished his Assassin training

>>134172504
I'd hate to see too massive of a time skip.

Got to see Rickert and Luca again at some point.

>>134171641
Do you think Skully intended for that to happen when telling Guts about the possibility of her recovering?

>He's given up on revenge and sworn to protect

>Doing the same thing twice by building things up and taking it all away should just make most readers roll their eyes
As opposed to what? The power of friendship stopping 5 literal gods? Come on.

Are you seriously expecting some happy ending? Pay more attention to Skully's foreshadowing

>and where's the tragedy
The only one who could potentially handle themselves in the whole party against the monsters is Schierke, and even she is helpless if its a tougher enemy. The whole party's been relying on Guts and its placing an even bigger burden on him. The fox will probably have a hand in this too

He's taken up a mask of anonymity and doesn't think anybody recognises who he is. Serpico just sort of plays along and Farnesse hasn't commented on it at all.

Or he'll become an entity similar to Skull Knight

>>134172691
>>Till he restores Casca
You literally made that up. He's never said what he wants to do after restoring Casca. He intended to go to Elf Island to protect her, he didn't even know she could be healed until recently.

>As opposed to what? The power of friendship stopping 5 literal gods? Come on.
Why are you assuming this will end with Guts defeating the God Hand? Why do you think the ending has to be binary black or white?

>>134172631
Realistically, he might have just said that because "hey man, you never know".

But since this is a story, yeah, probably.

>>134172691
Giving up on revenge to restore Casca will/has put him through experiences that will make him realize that truth more. Instantly forgetting those lessons would be lame.

>>134171238
Sorry to hear that. I'm glad you could witness that chapter before dying.

>>134172791
Ah, forgot about that bit.

Shame they haven't done any catching up with what happened to them after the group split up. Think the Holy Knight would comment on his old commander practicing magic.

I wonder if he still believes in his religion after everything that he saw.

>>134172909
>Why do you think the ending has to be binary black or white?
Why do you? The whole world's basically turned to shit, i'd say it close to black.

>Why are you assuming this will end with Guts defeating the God Hand?
I'm not, I'm only assuming that he'll try and kill Femto at least.

>He's never said what he wants to do after restoring Casca
Its heavily implied, Skully also warns him that what he wants and what she wants are probably not the same thing

>>134172963
What else is there for him? He even notes how him and Griffith are on the same ground now, meaning he's still bent on killing him. Restoring Casca doesn't mean they'll go and live in a cottage somewhere, the whole world is now full of demons and even if they got rid of the brand its still really bad for humans out there.

why would you say this if you thought Guts wouldn't clash with them

No, it really hasn't. You could make strong arguments for him wanting to stay put in elf island or go back to Midland. Hell
>Skully also warns him that what he wants and what she wants are probably not the same thing
PROBABLY means what Casca wants will be bad. Guts has spent around 2, maybe 3 years developing character and healing. Casca has not.

>>134173087
He was always guided more by "knights honour" than Holy See teachings so he's probably doing okay.

I just got reminded that back in Conviction they kept hinting at some terrible event that happened to him involving the people he was trying to protect in the past. I wonder if we'll ever hear about that.

>>134173279
Void still outranks him

>>134173225
What else does he have to gain?

Griffith wanted to rule, and now he does. I don't think he's morally reformed or anything, but I don't see why he'd build up Falconia as just another sacrifice. Seems pointless.

>>134173365
What's another sacrifice to him now? He can always excuse it to himself, the more power he gets the more stuff he can do until in the end he fully embraces the fact that he wants power for its own sake.

And here you were complaining about horrible writing. Anything short of either killing Femto or Guts dying in the attempt would be shit writing. So yeah, maybe it is binary, but any other way would not make any sense, Guts is a warrior at heart, meaning he will search for conflict.
>No, it really hasn't.
Do you seriously believe Guts will be content with protecting Casca for the rest of his life? Get real

There's also the foreshadowing about fate being a spiral, even if there's deviations, Gut will end up in some way as SK has.

Power over what? The power Griffith wanted was always characterized in rising above other people, not staring into the abyss like Void apparently does in his off-time.

Puck is the Elf King, calling it now.

Also he is Gut's father.

>>134173730
Not to mention any other heights he wants to achieve he has the power to do so. He's an Apostle, a God Hand, has enough power to bend space to his will, commands legions of other Apostles who follow his every command, and now he has a massive kingdom of feverishly devoted people. He could command them to do anything and they will follow his word without question.

>>134173641
Character development.

He could give up fighting. He probably won't though.

He has realized there's something worth living for, and that revenge isn't everything. He still probably wants to kill Griffith though.

He very well could spend the rest of his life trying to protect Casca. Doesn't mean that's what she wants.

Thing's aren't concrete.

Generally, in fiction, the scope of the story coincides with "this time, it's different." So fate may be defied.

>>134173641
I can't anymore. I think you're full of shit, and if I broke down a post of yours again I'd be going in circles.

>>134173862
>He has realized there's something worth living for, and that revenge isn't everything
This has been explored as far back as Golden Age, remember the talk about sparks?

>Thing's aren't concrete
Him living by the sword his whole life is.

>So fate may be defied.
GH remark him as a fish jumping upstream, and Skully tells him he has to be 'outside' the story to avoid fate entirely, which probably means he won't be with Casca again or maybe even the whole party.

>>134173905
>I think you're full of shit
I think you are too, everything you expect is way out of character for Guts

>I think the way the story has been written to this point generally suggests it will go the opposite way you expect.
And i think the way things have been built up, its basically going to be another giant slap to Guts face to remind him of why he can't have any peace, especially with all the things about the armor coming to fruition that SK warned him about

>>134174135
The whole thing with him gaining a family and then losing it has been subverted by him gaining another, but this time not abandoning them because of his own insecurities.

Character development.

He has lived by his sword his whole life, which doesn't mean that can't change.

Character development.

I can't guess how the story will end, but if what's happened so far is any indication, things are already very different than the last loop, if the planes merging is any indication.

Sure it can change,but it would probably be after killing Femto and it somehow reversing the whole merger of the astral and physical planes. He can't put down the sword, especially now with mythical creatures everywhere.

>Character development.
Development doesn't mean changing what he fundamentally is

>things are already very different than the last loop
Are they? Its even more apparent that Guts can't abandon fighting even if he somehow erased the brand. Griffith is now on the same plane as him, there's monsters everywhere, apostles are bloodthirsty who are being reined in temporarily

I want it.

Thing that pisses me the most is that Miura doesnt provide any backstory for neither godhand and skull knight. We have no fucking clue what will happen and what it is about.

Shit's been getting too lighthearted
I feel something tragic will happen soon

Gaiseric and the old Midland kingdom implies a lot.

>I wonder if he still believes in his religion after everything that he saw.
Why wouldn't he? The prophecies are literally becoming true before his eyes.

I mean, would you doubt Christianity if Jesus literally comes back with a literal sword and literally BTFOs the literal Antichrist?

Farnese stopped believing and she was a zealot.

>>134175343
That's because she's cute.

Cute.

>>134175343
>masturbates to people burning

Yeah the pinnacle of faith. She was only a "zealot" because it overlapped with her interests.

>>134175168
It should be plainly clear that Skull Knight is a previous king of Midland who went on a journey similar in nature to Guts's in the past, and that history may repeat itself as Guts contnues to sacrifice his humanity for revenge.

Godhand will likely get backstory much closer to the end of the manga. I thought that Guts was going to murder members of the Godhand one by one over the course of the entire story, but when I read that quote from Miura from several years back saying we were over 60% through Berserk's plot I started thinking maybe he'd kill them mostly all at once, if at all.

She felt extremely guilty about this. It's also pretty obvious for anyone who read Conviction that she was sincere in her beliefs, and not pretending for personal interests.

>>134175343
Hey, nobody ever said crazy people need a reson to fall from faith. She actually didn't have one.

post yfw Casca is gonna get her memory back and a piece of the Golden Age will return.

I miss the Band of the Hawk.

So how are they going to get back to where they're from?

It's an island after all.

>>134164663
Sonic and Guts need to team up.

Then wipe out both of their extending cast.

>>134175575
The way I see it there are 2 paths for Miura to take

Either go oldschool Miura and make her break down and try to kill herself and curse Guts for being the one to blame. They have to leaver her in the island to recover and Guts goes full GRIFFITH darkness again

Or make an emotional moment of weakness she is able to overcome with Guts and rejoin the group as a no longer retarded person. Everyone's happy

How many loli faeries will Guts recruit in Elfheim?

What's up with Schierke's fairy? People act like only Puck is from Elfheim.

>>134175818
Option C: everyone in the party gets raped and dies except guts who has to watch. Guts goes super saiyin to kill griffith and dies watching everyone getting raped by trolls.

>>134176675

Why does shit like pic related get me hard and turned on. Is it the whole concept of animals raping women or the way the art design is done?

More troll rape.
Weren't the women hypnoitsed or something?

I remember abit in the manga where one of the women was dumped in the corner and gave birth to like, a creature from the trolls sperm as Guts watched in horror.

Someone post it, can't find it.

I think it's been building up to more of a middle ground.

I want Casca to recover and join Guts, but it's not going to be as simple as a quick back-and-forth with the Elf King.
