Lolis are a problem now?

Grunbeld basically seems to be what would've happened to guts if he couldn't save casca, From the pictures it just looks like he was alone meets this girl and the guy builds up a little party, some animal or apostle kills her and he uses I assume a behelit to transform into the dragon

Never really cared for Grunbeld.

>>159063988
Yeah, but who did he sacrifice?

Berserk is as fantasy as it can get when it comes to combat.
Guts sword is the biggest offender, physics dont matter.

There's a whole lot of other apostles more fun than this shit and he gets a novel. Fucking hell.

>>159064430
Like Irvine. Irvine would be great. Even Locus would be good.

Or fuck, Zodd. He'll automatically involve Skull Knight too so it's twice the win.

>>159064430
Probably testing water.

God damn his art is god tier. I miss his hand drawn stuff.
He should really just write out the rest of Berserk with amazing drawings every 10-15 pages. I wouldn't mind.

>>159063988
doesn't explain why his dick is so hard for zodd.

guts would not start acting all star-struck and desiring to impress zodd like a lackey just because zodd was strong.

neither would most men with strong personalities.

I hope Guts will slice this faggot to half

>>159063595
full blown hentai manga when?

>>159064532
His hand drawn stuff in the manga very rarely looked this good.

>>159063456
even when using cintiq, they still have to use their hands to draw on the screen.

>>159063595
Looks pagan as fuck.

Did he ever make more Titan WWE chapters? I was really digging that.

>>159065059
It was a one shot, 6 chapters or so.

>>159065059
nah, that was just a short story. iirc, he has no intention of continuing that

>>159065085
>>159065091
Damn
I hope he makes more out of boredom one day. It was great.

He probably could've dished out a manga chapter in the time he spent drawing the LN illustrations.

>>159065410
Not the guy you were responding to, but I think so. Albeit, there is a bias here for 2 reasons: firstly, the image from the LN isn't all that large here. Secondly, there is a very clear emotion shown in >>159064262 that is instantly identifiable and relatable to the reader, while >>159063619 doesn't seem to be relaying all that strong of an emotion, even though the art is stellar. That said, the perceived lack of emotion is just my own opinion, and I haven't read the LN, so I have no true idea of the weight of the story the picture carries

Just because you had unfortunate sexual experiences in your life doesnt mean lolis are bad.

When we gonna get the backstory on this dude?

>>159070399
These things are not actual humans that lived and sacrificed someone to become an apostle. Theres just too many of them and they dont share much with the named apostles.
They're probably just generic monsters created by god hands.

Center of mass rotational logic does not apply to Guts' sword.

Fuck off and kill yourself, newfag.

There's at least one ilustration missing here, one featuring a young man with curly hair.

>all these high and mighty Griffith gangsters suffered the most embarrassing defeat so much that they had sacrifice all their comrades to become a literal demon for a free power up
Guts need to give them a reality check, especially Grunbeld.

>>159070720
Or maybe another actual apostle's spawn. They kinda do that.

Wyald was a old man, but his form was a fucking gorilla
the fattas baron was a huge snail

>>159072276
To give Grunbeld credit, it looks like he was betrayed by one of his comrades.
Locus, however, might have done become an apostle just for the power up rather than desperation.

>>159072541
Guts got betrayed and hasn't used his behelit

>>159072538
Probably has something to do with the subject's personality.

Judging by his age, he may have become an apostle after he passed his prime.

He's still got it
his hand drawn stuff looks so good

Bear in mind apostles can produce minions by converting other humans, so it may be one of them.

Mule though, he's alright.

How well would have Guts done if he had all his supplies combined with the rage during the Eclipse?

>>159074529
>he's alright
Thats the hallmark of red shirt for Berserk.
Mulls days are numbered

>>159074632
Probably would've killed a few more apostles, but it was still Godhand domain.

>>159074632
No more than he did.
Mindful that Guts isnt at the threshold to stand in the presence of the GH without buckling down.

All he'd accomplish is slaughter more demons/apostles than he did.

>>159074670
Berserk is unique in that assholes also get their comeuppance. No one is truly safe.

>>159074781
Perhaps but with Rikken and Isidro, Mule's purpose is likely to witness the horror of the apostles and griffith and then later sacrifice/kill the psychic girl

>>159063595
>>159063492
Would go Apostle on her ass, 10/10

How much you wanna bet the Moon Child is gonna decide to get his body back at some point?

>>159074632
you mean with the armor?
he'd probably turn that pool of blood into an ocean, but he still wouldntve killed any of the godhand

I would like trying to read this.

>>159072276
>>159072541
Grunbeld was facing an overwhelming army, so he sacrificed his friends. His friends willingly offered themselves up for sacrifice.

Read the LN summary.

SPOILERS

Female soldier friend is called Sigur(has feelings for Grunbeld), black-haired girl is Benedict and male soldier friend is Edvard(has feelings for Sigur).

Basically:

Edvard is encouraged by their jealous king and the Tudor general to betray Grunbeld, this throws their family(the girls) in danger. Grunbeld finds himself in mortal danger when the Beherit activates with his blood. The first 4 God Hand appear and he sacrifices his friends(they were willingly sacrificed). The apostle Grunbeld eats Edvard, burns the Tudor general to ashes and then goes after his king.

>>159077064
>inner lolicon
>inner

>>159077138
>200+ pages

What the fuck do you mean? Berserk chapters are 20 pages, and it takes Miura 3 months for 1 chapter. And that's digital.

>>159077246

>>159077246
And now he's basically Satan's butt boy. What a waste.

>>159064030
Sure is summertime in here

>>159077324
>What are Volumes?

>>159077808
He doesn't draw an entire volume all in one sitting you fucking moron. In the past 7 years, volumes take around 2 years to release. You're literally arguing that Miura has more "time" to draw 10 traditional artwork pieces than 3 months to draw 20 pages of a manga chapter.

The July announcement could very well be Pachinko rather season 3.

>>159063934
looks like fucking wolverine

>>159077900
So?
I was confronting 10 pages in a One Shot Volume of LN, versus 200+ pages in a Volume of the Manga, and concluding that, fucking obviously, drawning 10 pages for a entire One Shot Volume is easier than drawning for a Manga.

>>159078195
>So?

Then why not make the argument that drawing 10 pages for a light novel is easier than drawing 39 volumes and 351 chapters of Berserk?

Go play in traffic.

>>159078096
Yeah, no.
The only thing that are vaguely similar are the hair, but, at that poin, better going full retarded with a parallel to Haiachi.

>>159078195
What's the argument in arguing that 10 pages is easier than 200 pages? You're saying it took the same amount of time for Miura to do 10 pages for the light novel compared to the 200 pages of a volume? So it takes Miura 2 years to do the 10 pages, thus it's "easier"? How do you even compare how "easy" something is without a time frame?

>>159078246
Yeah, 1 Volume VS 1 Volume is stupid.
Go sleep in a gas chamber.

>>159078379
>1 volume vs 1 volume

You're so angry that you're wrong you can't type properly anymore.

>>159078378
Do I need an argument for saying that drawning 10 pages is easier than drawning 200?
Is /a/ at this level of retardation?

>You're saying it took the same amount of time for Miura to do 10 pages for the light novel compared to the 200 pages of a volume?
No, I'm saying exactly the opposite...

>>159078378
There's no reference. That guy is trying to argue hand drawing 10 pages is easy compared to a volume even though there are year long hiatuses mixed in with a volume. A comparison between a chapter and 10 bonus art pieces is a more apt comparison, but he's still fucking retarded, because a chapter takes an average of 3 months to produce.

>>159078433

At least I'm not sinking into the grammar nazi argumentation.

>>159078535
The 200 pages are spread over 2 years. Why not say drawing 8000 pages, the entirety is Berserk, is easier than drawing 10 pages? Why even bring up a volume as a comparison when it takes Miura 2 years, on average, to complete?

>>159078601
"Grammar" doesn't mean what you think it means.

>>159078611
Again, how can it be argued than 10 pages is "easy" when it's not known how long it took to complete? The only time reference we have is a month ago when it was announce that a LN was announced. The argument of comparing a volume vs. a LN is insane. I feel as if it's some top quality bait.

>>159074315
Watch her deal the killing/crippling blow to griffith during the last battle; inb4 she's gonna get cucked by the princess, she's gonna realise what an asshole griffith is; she'll snap, betray him and fuck him up (she dies in the process)

Man, while I like LNs, I don't like the idea that Miura is explaining Grunbeld's backstory in LN form, as that would probably mean it won't be referenced to in the manga. Of course, he could always sum up Grunbeld's life in 2-3 pages in his death scene, but still.

As long as Grunbeld's backstory is addressed in manga form I'm happy, I guess. He shouldn't touch Zodd or Skull Knight, though.

>>159077246
Willingly sacrificed? As in, they know they're gonna die anyway (too injured/fucked up) so they agree to being sacrificed?

>>159078611
>Why even bring up a volume as a comparison when it takes Miura 2 years, on average, to complete?
Because the Light Novel in ONE VOLUME ond not a Chapter?

Hence:"Obviusly drawnig with his usual style in a LN, that require less drawning (with a different structure), is easier than drawning for a Manga.

>>159078902
Yes, Grunbeld is a "true" knight. I would assume Locus is the "fake" knight. You can tell by how he acts/looks.

he's doing digital, i meant he's still got it when it comes to hand-drawn stuff
i'm optimistic that all of the digital art is because miura spends most of his time figuring out how to wrap up berserk - up until "recently", he's always just sort of improvised the story, but now he has to wrap it up so he has to start planning

soon we'll have a great story and hand drawn art again but the new anime will still exist

i dont think its any of the crew member's behelit. i think its just using guts as a form of travel to get to the real owner like Flora said. also nobody in the group seems like they would do this, and if they did. why wouldnt they just sacrifice everyone and end the story right there? because that would be retarded.

>>159079410
You are delusional and mostly wrong about everything.

>>159079410
If Berserk has an actual ending and Miura just dosen't up and croak it will be very underwhelming and we'll wonder why we even bothered.

>>159079683
If he actually finished the book his cash cow would die.

>>159079202
Miura's doing better than this hack. At least Miura's coming out with material every 4-6 months.

>6 years for ADwD
>7 years and going for TWoW
>only 168 pages confirmed for TWoW, and most of the stuff is cut material from ADwD

Fuck this hack. And he's white too, so he won't live to see 80. Miura still has 30 years to get his work finished.

>>159079410
>up until "recently", he's always just sort of improvised the story
this sounds not true at all

>>159079410
>>159079709
I can only hope he'd get back to traditional once he has the whole story planned out. There's only 20-25% of the story left.

>>159079855
He made things up as he went along. Golden Age was made up to match the first few chapters. Berserk armour was thought up by Miura when he finished Lost Children. Even though the events seems close together, it's actually almost a decade apart.

Miura said he wanted a happy ending, so I would guess he knows the ultimate ending, but not how Guts will arrive there.

>>159079972
>He made things up as he went along
No. He knows the general outline.

>>159077246

>>159081498
Well, he could just not go through with it, even if they're willing. The fact that he chose to kill the people closest to him for salvation is the act of devotion to the Godhand that marks him as theirs forever.

No, he just did some of the art and likely helped the author with the story a little, consider it is his universe

Ok, so I have not read Berserk in a long time, is it still Guts and the adventure fun gang? I kinda lost interest when they sailed off to fairyland.

>>159082187
Still there but after this hiatus things will certainly change up.

Digital looks almost as good as traditional. Especially in the newest chapters.

Golden Age wasn't fully planned. But he clearly knows what he's doing now.

>>159081288
You're too harsh for him.

>and he is playing human vs a real human
He isn't. Guts was famous among apostle. Grunbeld knew that some very powerful warrior travels the world and kills apostle. He didn't know Guts was wounded by Slan.

>>159063456
Who's the current most powerful general of the band of the hawk, Grunbeld or Zodd?

>>159083000
Zodd, not even a contest.

So he just drew Raoh a couple times for fun, then told them to do something with it. That's what it seems like to me, at least.

>So he just drew Raoh a couple times for fun
Fuck so I'm not the only one who thought this.

>>159083579
No, Grunbeld is stronger. Zodd's only advantange is that he can fly.

>>159063456
Lmao the middle of his helmet is pulling on his nose like that pignose BDSM contraption

>Is muira writing it?
It's written by Makoto Fukami, the writer of the new anime

Any more details? Which of his friends, exactly, got sacrificed?

>>159079845
Given how big he is, he might not even make 75

>part of the course
"par for the course"
The expression you are attempting to utilize is a golf idiom.

>>159084445
He should commit sue of side

>>159065636
>part of the course.
>ESL subhumans trying to utilise English idioms

>>159084445
Its not an idiom then. Its just a sentence.

>>159084551
It's*
kill yourself

>>159084588
Why dont you came here and yourself kill me :)

Black-haired girl is blind and the maiden of the fire dragon
-Grunbeld and friends were captured by the Tudor army and made prisoners
-Grunbeld finds his Beherit inside the beast he killed in that picture
-Grunbeld returns to his country, becomes apostle and liberates the country in his fire dragon form becoming a legend.

>>159084551
How is it not an idiom, exactly?
(Unless you are talking about the actual par value for a literal golf course...)
