Batman: >Parents brutally murdered in front of him as a child,

>>93100807
>letting other mercenaries rape him
>not an immense privilege

batman wears his underwear on the outside and at worst has to deal with some ugly thugs with knives or laughing gas

Even going for real life examples, Batman look like a pussy. Many kids lose their parents by war or drone attacks but they don't turn into emo ninjas.

>>93100956
But they probably would if they were rich.

>>93100956
No, they just turn into religiously fanatic suicide bombers.

>>93100982
Not really. They would either get drunk or just move on. At best they could finance ISIS

He also had the option to kill the joe chill but did not but that whould kinda destroy the canon because what better whould batman be if he killed joe chill

Batman is just not a edgelord like Guts. When bad things happen to him, he feels them and is defined by them. That's what people do in the real world too. You don't just have horrible things happen to you and not reflect on them.

Also
>>93100807
>>Still is an optimist who doesn't let the world break him
You must have missed the whole Black swordsman arc. He was huge asshole that wouldn't let an faggot ass elf touch him and didn't want help from anyone/ or cared about the fate of the world and only cared about penetrating Griffith with his overcompensating sword.

Yes but Guts matured and isnt edgy anymore

>>93101184
thats cause berserk is a continuous story written by one guy
i dont know why you expect character development from capeshit

Its pretty unfair to compare anyone elses struggles to Guts, he's had probably the hardest life of any fictional character who was not explicitly made to suffer.

skull knight even calls him struggler.

Guts is better written than 98% of capes

I honestly can't go back to feeling bad for Bruce after I recently got into Berserk. I also love more people getting into BERSERK lately.

>>93101184

The world needs more emo ninjas who want to make the world a better place you absolute faggot, instead they just do gay shit like turn into normies or become suicide bombers.

You what?

Also Guts in many ways WAS broken. Did you not read the Black Swordsman arc? It was him lashing out childishly and violently against everyone and everything. He was also borderline suicidal for a large part of his life, which is why he went from battlefield to battlefield consciously pushing himself to the brink of death.

Anon no

Anon why

>>93101102
... actually yes, they do.

>>93105614
He's really chipper these days compared to the really early chapters. Making friends really went a ways to unfucking him.

>>93106769
in a way the killer has a point.

the kid merely preaches a message of hope, no tangible solutions. so if the kid fails or gives up, all the ones listening to his message would be the ones holding up the bag when he leaves.

basically bruce can quit anytime he wants because he has something to fall back on/have an alternative life ready and waiting. guts doesn't.

Guts has the benefit of a clear artistic vision in mind for him while Batman is less a character and more a concept.

>>93106789
Guts going full RIP AND TEAR is going to get him killed against Griffith. He has to go half RIP AND TEAR to win.

>>93100807
Guts' story reads like a Korean soap opera. It becomes comical and meaningless after a certain point.

REMINDER that Griffith has done nothing wrong. The Band of the Hawk swore that they would give up their lives for him, and when he went to collect his debt after giving them fame, fortune, and comfort, they suddenly turned their backs on him. Also Guts is mad because Griffith gave her such a good fucking she literally became retarded.

Liking Guts is being a teenage edgelord, liking Griffith is being a sophisticated adult.

>>93104804
Neither of these are happening. The latter just ain't Casca's nature, the former is people not realizing that her reaction to Griffith after the reincarnation is because he's using Casca's baby as his vessel, not because she still loves Griffith.

>>93107940

Shut up, Griffith

>>93108149
What?? I'm not Griffith! There's no way I would know how to use a computer, of all things!

>>93104804
>Casca's mind was ok all along
>She just didn't wanna admit she liked it so she pretended to be retarded

>>93108265
I had a friend who tried this once. She was on the far-left of the bell curve when it came to intelligence. Her boyfriend accused her of cheating, and she denied it for a month until he finally presented evidence to her that she had, in fact, been cheating. Her response was, "Oh, baby, I'm sorry, it's just he's got a really big dick, and I would pass out and forget so I wasn't really lying, honest!"

>>93100807
As someone who's never watched or read Berserk, you make Guts sound like a massive faggot, OP.

Thanks for steering me away from this dogshit.

>>93108363
Guts is a massive faggot. He's taken it up the ass, and he was too much of a beta to fuck Casca even though she was lusting for his dick, and then got mad when alpha-chad Griffith gave her a dicking... to die for.

>>93108346
I hope that's all bullshit because otherwise that guy must have had a break with reality himself.

>>93108399
She didn't want to go back to living on Section 8 housing and EBT, and she thought he'd be stupid enough to believe her. Fortunately he kicked her ass to the curb. I hear he's a hyper-racist now, though.

Guts had a worst life but is in a much different world

Wow Guts sounds so edgy and mature like myself.

this is an objective fact

>>93104804

Berserk's slow transition to more lightheartedness has come from Miura getting older and not being interested anymore in the misery and bleakness of his former tone. He's even stated Berserk should have a happy ending.

Jesus, i OP a trolling faggot or is Berserk really such an edgefest?

Maybe it's cause I was very very very ill when I watched it, but it just looks WRONG and UNSETTLING and DIONYSIC, decadent/degenerate, to me.

Whereas Vinland Saga or Hellsing look like VITALITY and HEALTH and APOLLONIC to me.

Hell, if you masturbate less the next time you masturbate it will feel better. In my experience atleast.

>>93101138
>>93105614

The whole point of the Black Swordsman arc is that Guts' edgelord persona was just him retreating to being an asshole because of his past and his fear of getting hurt. Remember at the end of the arc where he breaks down like a bitch and bawls?

I dunno why this has to be a fight. Guts becomes an empowered Batman with a huge sword once he gains the Berserker armour and Shierke is there to remove any tension that the armor might give by reversing the armor's effect of making him a mindless creature fueled by pure hate.

>>93110830

Except Batman also is optimistic about the world, he just tends to be a cynical jaded asshole when dealing with other people but he still believes in truth justice hope and all that shit, one could even make the argument that Superman inspires that hope in Batman, you also forget that Bruce trained since he was very young with various masters including Ra's Al Ghul who would have twisted his head further and that Gotham is a horrible shithole filled to the brim with corruption and crime with Batman just being an ordinary man with ambition and money to fulfill that amibition.

>Berserk's slow transition to more lightheartedness

Puck was there from the first fucking chapter. Guts not actually being the edgelord he initially appeared was revealed at the end of the Toad Count arc, before the Golden Age. I'd argue that Berserk is gradually becoming less grimdark simply because actually winning against Godhand no longer seems a total impossibility, even if Guts has yet to make any actual progress towards that.

>>93101062
Lol

>>93107940
He got so assblasted about losing in a fight with Guts that he wound up getting tortured in a dungeon. What a retard

>>93122252
>actually winning against Godhand no longer seems a total impossibility
...Nah it still seems pretty fucking impossible. Guts just doesn't really care anymore; he just wants to be left alone to bang his girlfriend on elf island. Having a loli witch that can make the screaming spirits that try to eat your soul at night go away also serves as a pretty good mood booster
