I just wanted to say to all who have commented, watched, and liked the video :) I have not had such an amazing reception before and I'm glad it's for something I loved reading and making a video for. SO THANK-YOU!! You can expect more manga content to become regular on this channel, not every week as I have so much to read now as per your recommendations. But I will hope you enjoy my journey into this new medium I currently want to dive deeper in and for some of you, perhaps other conventional things. Thanks again for watching, and as always have a good one, (or for the Berserk fans; keep struggling.) ✌
the manga i read to fill the hole Berserk left was VAGABOND. and man... it is as good as berserk for me. People also say the "big 3" mangas are Berserk Vagabond and Vinland Saga. and all of them are good but i think Vagabond and Berserk are a step higher from anything else
1:31 when you get to the end of gunnm don't be sad, remember there is a sequel and a prequel ;^)
@@SimonLab What about Kingdom? I haven't read it yet but it have quite a reputation too
@@Noctowll Yeah it has and it it's still running. Its really long as well some 700+ chapters. And it is supposed to be really "smart" and top tier depicting battles, but.. I havent found the motivation to commit to it yet since its soo long, but i m gonna read for sure in the near future.
Dude wanna read anything close to Berserk? Read Vagabond by Inoue Takehiko.
Wanna see the best mystery manga of all time? Read Monster by Urasawa Naoki.
He also wrote 20th century boys which is also a banger.
Ah yes. A great starter manga. Pretty light, not emotionally devastating at all.
it was my first manga too lol
It's the perfect slice of life manga to start off.
great shoujo manga
When does it get good? Cause I’m in chapter 20 and it’s boring me to death. I might just drop it tbh
@@awesomesause1116 What ever you do, don’t drop it, it’s a slow and masterful burn.
Welcome to the Struggler club✌
✌🏻✌🏻🤭
@@mugenbop having seen almost every berserk video on youtube, I think this review is one of my favorites. It's so candid and conversational without the typical overload of editing and fluff that so many other video styles have. Really great work man I look forward to watching more of what you do
You sir are far too kind 😭
bruh cloudbloom u are everywhere berserk related. respec
@@guilhermemaximo9337 I am berk man 😎
I think a lot of fantasy stories struggle to make the characters as realistic as Berserk has. The way these humans react to such insane fictional elements feels really genuine and unique.
100% agree, I think most genre stories of all media types forget that it’s the characters we want to understand in unique circumstances. LOTR isn’t cool cuz of the unique name ‘Middle Earth’ but the characters that inhabit it. IMO
Haha “struggle”
Oldboy profile picture? Respect my man.
@@pepehands2735 Respect to all my oldboys out there.
I didn’t think so
The fan base is so wholesome for such a dark and grim story
It’s actually one of the worst fanbases I’ve seen
@@Wezlii530 Ironic
The fanbase is both great and full of arrogant dickheads. What’s sad is that Berserk fandom, overall, is still better than other certain fandoms I’ve come across like AoT or HxH. Anime fans get very terrible if you don’t worship their shit
@@amuroray9115 personally I think it’s almost as bad as AOT but AOT is still worse imo
@@Wezlii530 yeah. True. You know what makes me also sad? Your pfp reminded me of Jojo’s fanbase also has a very arrogant side. Luckily, most Jojo fans are chill and just meme. But there’s a sizable group that terrorize others over it since it is pretty unique. Also, Part 7 is considered one of the greatest mangas ever written (just like Berserk) so you know how it goes from there when fans start joining……
miura died doing what he loved. which is something guts said in the black swordsman arc. “He died doing what he wanted, no matter what right?- I bet he was happy.” Literally words to live by.
Yes
Who was guts reffering to?
@@arcticwolfclapsyou1242 guts was referring to the priests son that died in battle as a mercenary i believe, the priest mentions how his son was a full then guts pulls the "died doing what he loved" quote
@@arcticwolfclapsyou1242 priests son that died being a mercenary, the priest said he shouldnt have been a mercenary and he could be happy and alive, and guts says that he was happy, he was doing what he wanted
Welcome struggler, berserk was my first too and It was a perfect introduction.
Thank you fellow struggler! Hopefully I can talk about more for ya’ll soon :)
Worst introduction 😢nothing after it comes close to it 😭
Yeah, idk if it's a good introduction, everything will feel bland after that
@@MrKylljoy I agree lol, was just going to say that. I'm an experienced manga reader and my manga intake dwindled after I experienced Berserk. You can't just read Berserk and then go back to "I spent 300 years killing slimes and now I'm max level"
This was not my first by a long shot. But first seeing the anime, simply because I was working at a Blockbuster in the early 2000s got me to read it. And holy shit. Over 18 years. I am both pissed at and relieved for Miura, but my god, I never thought I'd ever see or read a perfect piece. Music has Beethoven, Bach, Tchaikovsky... manga has THIS. There are other greats, but only Berserk and GUNNM are worthy to span centuries.
im always glad to hear someone talk about their journey reading berserk and really seeing that they understand that it wasn't overhyped but a true masterpiece of story telling. it's about hope not gore
Well said
Mmmmm searching for Berserk videos by new paid off. Welcome struggler
Thanks very much! Proud to be one :)
Finding new videos is getting tougher and tougher. This makes me sad.
@@rupinderjeetsinghhans Ok I'm on it, I'll make more ;)
@@mugenbop Your review was really enjoyable and perfect. I think the same of Berserk. I wish more people to subscribe to you out of those 60k+ viewers. Thank you for this video as well.
@@rupinderjeetsinghhans Hey all in all in time :)
I understand why you want Griffith dead. I think most of us that have been reading Berserk for longer (i "only" got into it around 13 years ago) just wanted Guts's struggle to end, which is why we can accept the point where it ended. Who cares about revenge, just live your life in paradise with your love and friends, Guts fought enough, his mind and body were on the verge of collapsing, he deserves to rest.
Agreed
I wanted Griffith to die too. But after reading the last few chapters revenge isn't the answer for Guts. He has people to protect now.
'Revenge' goes hand-in-hand with salvation. It's the ugliest truth of the world, whether or not you take pleasure in the act. Mad dogs can't be allowed to roam unchecked, never mind rule the farm. Guts will ruin Griffith's new life, kill or 'cripple' his improved body and leave him in an impotent, imprisoned existence, again. Not to spite him but, just like last time, in spite of him. There are simply more important things than Griffith, especially now.
Not to say Guts won't 'pay' in some Sisyphean way for that ultimate blasphemy, but he's long accepted the inevitability. He just needed a nobler reason to, like everyone does. The only way to 'avenge' our families' inevitable deaths is to give them possibilities for peace and power, within our lifetimes.
Griffith isn’t a mad dog. Guts is.
Griffith is just cold reality. And by embracing it, he saved the world. And all it cost was Guts’ suffering.
It would absolutely be about revenge over salvation at this point. It wouldn’t even be about Justice, as Griffith hasn’t been repeating his mistakes yet. So it would be 100% be “I know what you did, and I’m going to kill you out of spite”. Reality won.
Read berserk at the height of my depression n i’ll forever struggle to find my inner peace… it was truly a life changer for me
❤️
The eclipse is the most broken I've ever been by a piece of fiction. It weighed on me for weeks.
you say that as if it is a good thing
It was the same for me but with Goodnight Pun Pun
@@someguyy194_2 i’ll check that out
I read berserk in like 2 weeks, some days i read 50 chapters in a row and it changed my life completly. There are games and stories that left me thinking for weeks about life, like vinland saga, vagabond, breaking bad and the witcher. berserk, even after almost 2 years left me in that state, when miura died it almost felt like it was a really close person to me and sometimes in the middle of the night i just watch scenes of the movies and stand there, thinking. it was a really turning point in my life that changed the way i see things
Berserk is something that just makes you feel so many different emotions. It's incredible. Fantastic video bro 👍
For the people who absolutely love the art, I want to point out that Berserk was published over a 30 year period with over 360 chapters, which means that Kentaro Miura averaged a chapter a month over the lifespan of the manga even with the hiatuses, that means he kept up that high quality art while also releasing Berserk at a breakneck pace at times. Kentaro Miura was an amazing mangaka.
You said it well.
This just showed up in my recommendations. Great take on the story and glad you enjoyed it. It’s on of my favorites. I recommend reading Vinland Saga next🤔 it’s still ongoing atm but there’s a huge chunk for you to read still and be satisfied.
Also I love how everyone who reads Berserk hates Farnice at first and can’t stand her then all of a sudden it clicks and we love her😂
It’s the classic Miura-Farnese jebait, never been so happy to be fooled ;)
I’ll add it to the list thanks so much!
@@mugenbop I would reccomend Vagabond and Kingdom too
you mean farmland saga lol
I know of this meme but not there yet :3
You mean Timeskip the interesting part saga lol
I just finished berserk too! It has quickly become my favorite story.
Incredible, so new and fresh :)
@@mugenbop And it's never going to be finished.
Ah well I would rather an unfinished masterpiece than something finished and unsatisfying in my opinion :)
@@mugenbop Well if you were reading Berserk years ago like poor me over here Mr. Miura (RIP) would leave the story in hiatus for years and years to the point where you just accept the story might not having an ending and have to be content with what you got lol. Like Beethoven releasing a final album called unfinished.
@@mugenbop better to have an option to read the continuation or not rather than not :))))
After reading Berserk, every other manga just couldn't compare
Vagabond?
@@redhairedshanksfanboy5695 I had the pleasure of reading Berserk first but Vagabond is definitely up there.
@@pravum3150 I read vagabond first I’m still not done with berserk I’m at the beach right now and I think the character of musashi is more relatable and I personally like him more than guts but besides the protagonists I think berserk has a slight edge in other categories
Blade of the Immortal?
The sheer detail alone is leagues beyond anything else
No manga has been able to compell me like Berserk has. 600 volumes in my collection later...and nothing can compare to the quiet panels and the real emotional responses Berserk has drawn out of me.
For me, a masterpiece. Tragic and beautiful. Horrific and yet somehow so soft and powerful at times. So glad you've read this, this is a manga I recommend to everyone who will listen.
Great video.
Berserk is quite literally the king. It's going to be hard to enjoy other stuff when the bar is set so high lol. Glad you see a new fan!
I really wonder what would have happened had Miura had the chance to continue after how chapter 364 ended? Guts losing himself to the armor after Griffith/Femto does who knows what on this island? The Beast of Darkness making true on it's promise to come to the surface when Guts least expects it? Members of his new group dying? Him coming into conflict with the Skull Knight once the latter learns of a God Hand's presence and not wasting a nanosecond to come cut him down? Whatever the case, no doubt something extremely bad would have went down soon after. . . 🤔
I love all these possibilities especially when anything could have happened :)
You just set the bar extremely high struggler
I'm going to be that guy, and just say that once you've had a taste of filet mignon, hamburger just won't cut it anymore. Reading Berserk as your first full manga is like having an A1 Wagyu as your first steak. Nothing else will compare.
Consider Hajime no Ippo (either the manga, or the anime). It's one of the only things I've read that's come even close to the character development and storytelling that Berserk can offer. Wildly different genre and theming, but you said you like a good story, right? Well, Ippo's got it.
Put the filet Mignon between two buns. Boom…
I want to get into Hajime. Art style interests me
I loooooove berserk and to a degree I agree with you, there are a lot of mediocre/bad manga out there same with any media really, but I think It gets a generally bad wrap just like comics cause for a long time the main market for it has been teenagers, and people think that they'll eat up any garbage, which is true to a degree.
But there are a lot of great manga out there to check, Vagabond, 21st century boys, Monster, Vinland Saga, anything by Inio Asano or Junji Ito, Blame!, Hiromu Arakawa does quality stuff tho she goes more for the teenage demographic, CLAMP too and Great Teacher Onizuka, just to name a few, all those have really distinct style, some are really surreal experimental works, and have lot of interesting stuff to say.
It's kind of a shame that most of the time what gets the most attention in this community is "Thing for horny teenagers that you have seen before, now with a new gimmick" or "Dragon Ball, AGAIN!"
I agree although I would replace filet mignon with the umami filled fatty tuna you would find in a quaint Japanese port town. On the surface its fatty and flavoursome, however when you read into it and understand its origin and the work and passion put into it, the tuna becomes something beautiful. Also its A5 Wagyu idiot.
Berserk is definitely my favourite piece of fiction ever, let alone anime/manga. Vinland saga is another read that I think you’ll find worth it, it sounds like you appreciate character development and Vinland Saga has a-lot of that coupled with a great narrative
One of the best reviews of my favorite manga Berserk! I loved how you sounded so casual and genuine, i'm glad you enjoyed it as much as i!
I was introduced to Berserk because I was really into Dark Souls. After my best friend gotten into it we both got the brand of sacrifice tattoo on our necks. I gotten it because it means a lot of things. It means my friendship with my best friend, Gut's struggles, how much I look up to Guts and how much Berserk means to me. Berserk is a top favorite manga right next to Dorohedoro.
Going through Dark Souls and Bloodborne hits differently now. I love fighting Gael because he's looks and fights just like Guts. Seeing the tiny baby creatures in Bloodborne that look like Casca's baby. I can't wait to see what Berserk references are in Elden Ring. Even in Hollow Knight there's a npc that looks like a bug Guts.
That’s really cool! I didn’t know about the Hollow Knight reference :)
I think you'll absolutely love Naoki Urasawa's works. More specifically Monster, 20th Century Boys, and Pluto are his Big 3. All are amazing. And since you like Battle Angel Alita, I think you'd love Blame! All of these aren't even particularly long reads, especially Blame!
I did read the first volume of Blame! And I was enjoying it despite being really confused of what was happening haha
Blame! Is really good!!!
Monster is phenomenal, a true hidden gem.
@@RobRJW
I wouldn't says it a hidden gem, a lots of know about it but it sure as hell still deserve more attention.
@@mugenbop BLAME! Is one of my favorite. I read the whole thing in a single day lol
Sets the bar SUPER high sadly....
Worth it, Struggler!
A recommendation that's similar to Berserk is Claymore. I think you would really like it and really appreciate what it has to offer.
Some of the other favs are: Hunter x Hunter, Vagabond, Slam Dunk, Real, One Punch man(Yusuke Murata one), One Piece, attack on titan, Blue Period and so many more!
Hope you love reading more manga, have fun struggler
Chainsaw man
Watching you talk about Guts and his character development as well as the other characters brought tears to my eyes. Berserk is my favorite manga of all time and I think you hit the nail on the head about the characters, their developments, struggles, how they play different roles in the manga, etc. Thank you!
Anytime :)
@@mugenbop also quick question, what music did you use in the video besides Gut's Theme? I love the songs you used!
Thanks :) I used the fire link shrine song from dark souls 1, and the behelit theme from the 1997 anime
As a handicap person (one eyed, and one leg) Berserk hit me in another level. Even more cuz I'm like this after getting killed, resuscitated at the hospital, then torture in that same place for 5 days. Now I even try to use the chronic pain as fuel, cuz I'm a dad (my daughter is 7yo and my """accident""" was 6 years ago) and I would never leave her alone if I have a say in that. One of the hardest things to learn now, it's not caring about ppl still not believing in my history, but that usually change when I show my scars. Even learn to walk again with one leg has been easier. But every bad comment about my health or handicapness had made me a rougher bone to chew. Thanks for your videos, and work on them. Love & hugs from South America 🙇🏻♂️♿
6:19 I loved that too. This is one of my favorite panel of the manga.
Nice choice of music with the firelink shrine ost in the background.
Got this recommended! Glad you like it! Truly a modern day classic, as sad as the authors death is im just glad we got what we got and he died doing what he loves un compromised!
100% agree :)
One of my favorite scenes in Berserk is when Guts was running through the woods after the eclipse ended. Realising he lost everything he just got back and with his love Casca being in arms reach but at the same time so distant from him. He didn't know what to do with all of his built up emotions and didn't have a plan of where to run, he struggles through the physical and emotional pain of everyone who was dear to him being taken from him. The scene where he encounters the knigh of skeleton and fights the souls was also a masterpiece of a scene, introducing us to the new world Guts will have deal with. (Listening to Descent OST during those scenes made it even better)
warms my heart to see someone going through the experiences i've had too, i'm glad you enjoyed it! this story completely captivated me, and to this day it is hands-down some of the best things i ever got the pleasure of reading . to me berserk is untouchable when it is at it's best, the storytelling, the characters, the atmosphere, worldbuilding, art, writing, everything just feels so deeply thought out and i'm still fascinated by it
the dark soul music is a nice touch. great video.
these types of videos are actually really entertaining, i hope you will keep making them :D
I shall :)
Well, it is the first day of the new year. Randomly saw this pop up on my feed and glad to have watched it. Will miss Berserk after reading it since 2005 and now seeing it come to an end as I reach the age of 32. Enjoyed the analysis and hopefully you run into another manga banger soon!
It was significant for me to think about your perspective on this, outside of Berserk, with things I'm currently going through.
This perspective on life and the ways we experience despair and beauty- along with how they weave through each other. It's easy to get lost in how cool Berserk is and lose the depth of the connotations to real human experience. The core reasons so many of us feel unforgettably impacted by this series and Miura's legacy.
Loved this video.
A person turning into a fellow BERSERK fan and geeking about how good it is for 21 minutes. Man, you always love to see it. But if you wish to read something similar like BERSERK in terms of quality I highly recommend you to check out: Vagabond, Kingdom and Vinland Saga.
Having Berserk as your first manga is good but also bad because you won´t find any other manga that is as good as Berserk. Also here are some recommendations for other manga you might enjoy: Vinland Saga, 20th Century Boy, Monster, Sun Ken Rock, One Punch Man(The new one), Vegabond, Dorohedoro and Hunter x Hunter.
i know it s a matter of povs but how is sun ken rock included in this list except for the good art u may encounter in some panels
I'd also recommend Blade of The Immortal. It's amazing and has become criminally underrated.
“As good as berserk” 💀
Sun Ken Rock is the most trashy, generic, shonen story ever told. Only reedeming quality of it is the art. Which is a huge shame since the art is awesome.
@@Pmirum the art and fight scenes are sick it’s like watching a raid movie
Love how personal your style of video essay is. Amazing
Berserk is truly beautiful and I'm so glad it's your first one. It's so human and deals with themes other manga don't really cover. It does so well in portraying being completely broken down and finding the strength to build yourself up again. Berserk is just one of those stories where you feel like you have matured or grown more as a person after reading it. And also, phenomenal video.
Hands down berserk is one of the best story I’ve ever read imo
I wish there was more but with what we got it was genuinely a blessing.
I agree with you with the fact that this story captivates you
Highly Recommend Vinland Saga
The journey the main character goes through gives you a similar feeling with guts’ journey
Hasn’t disappointed me yet
Very enjoyable video, hopefully you continue reading manga. I hope you enjoy your next read through of Berserk
Thanks so much!
After reading falcon of the millenium empire arc, i thought to myself, this is too good and my respect and appreciation towards Miura increased so much, sadly after just a few days i finished that arc, he passed away, never have I felt more bad about anything than his death till now, RIP Miura.
My favourite chapters of berserk would be 223-229
If you know, you know
Oh yep you know
Chitch😭
Can't remember but it has to be the Berserker armor part right?
@@touchingisjustthefirststep Yep
Wow this video is amazing. It captures my feelings to the T. I was in the same boat as you when I decided to jump in and start reading it this year. Within two months I finished it. Now I can't enjoy any other piece of literature as Berserk raised my standards. The level of plot and character writing is godly. RIP Kentaro Miura.
What a wonderful surprise, finding this channel!
I can say the same for all of you! :)
man, im really glad you loved berserk, you absolutely NEED to read Vagabond next, i promise you´ll find it quite often that you´ll think about life itself while reading it, or when you think bout it, its trully beautiful with what its says, just like berserk
You have me convinced Juan; I’ll add to the list :)
@@mugenbop YES, i Promise you´ll like it just as much as berserk, maybe even more(?)
Ooooh 😏
Man when you used the dark souls theme it was so good, amazing video
I love the music from firelink shrine in the background! Darksouls took huge inspiration from berserk.
I as well finished berserk as my first manga recently and without a doubt one of the best fiction I've ever consumed.
Fun fact the editor often complains about how long it takes miura to draw his art. One of those complaints was "Why are you using a magnifying glass to put in detail? the printers can't even handle that amount of detail."
FANTASTIC review my man, I’m so happy you were able to experience this story when you weren’t really into manga like that. May he Rest In Peace
Ooh, I saw that soundtrack from DS in the video, really fitting!
Glad you enjoyed peak fiction. Everything will not be as good as this ever but it’ll be up there
Ngl, I still feel all sorts of ways every time I hear about the series... been a fan for a decade, I grew up reading it, it's like an old friend that suddenly disappeared and we'll never know what happened to him.
Im now subscribed so keep up the good work man, cause ill be watching you.
Great first pick for a manga! I'm excited to see what you choose to read next :)
Berserk changed my life 🙏🏻
If you want more manga like Berserk, try checking out some stuff from the seinen demographic. Naoki Urasawa’s Monster, Vagabond, Gantz, Battle Royale, Goodnight Punpun, etc.
it was my first manga as well couldn't put it down, its now my favorite story ever. I hold it in such high regard. RIP to the LEGEND.
What a simple but perfec choice of words to explain something complicated like no one can explain.. At end everybody understand it and have thayre unique expirience of this..
Support for this brother
Your voice is soothing af nohomo loved your video!!!!!!! DESERVES MUCH MORE ATTENTION
Without a doubt the series is a masterpiece. Keep going struggler.
Welcome to the struggle!!!
I genuinely love this video. Berserk changed me as a person and how I view the world. Guts is a person. Period. I cried many days when Miura died and I love how you talk about berserk... I wish everyone would read Berserk and really really take it in.
Hey, you truly did a great job with the video.
Thank you :)
“Like a bonfire of dreams” RIP Miura thanks for creating a legendary story about life and being human.
one moment that really suprised me was when guts was just going on a walk by the seaside with his companions and you realize the world has more to offer than the horrible things that guts had to went through
Yes! Milennium Falcon has always been my favorite. "Backlightning" probably being my favorite chapter.
Good to see some Aussies getting more views and content out there. good stuff mate.
Glad you got into Berserk. its a hell of a time and few others can compare
Berserk is one of the greatest story's ever told. Rest in Piece Miura. Thank You🕊️
You started at the peak there isnt much that will satisfy you anymore
Fitting use of dark souls music in the background
I feel like Berserk has changed me, reading the manga seriously put my mind to 'things could definitely get worse' in real life scenarios. The amount of burden and darkness in Berserk really shows to me that our every day struggles can never compare, and things can for sure always take massive turns for the better or worst.
I think we can all sort of see how berserk was going to end. I felt unsatisfied at first knowing it won’t be completed but now I am fine with it. All I want is for guts and casca to be happy....
I’ve lost all motivation to continue read berserk because I’m so scared of the pain I’d feel once I reach the final chapter . RIP Miura
Finish it for Miura ❤️
great review. started reading berserk 8 years ago and i still feel the same way as yourself. even after all this time it's still a masterpiece
First one for me too! Agree 100% with everything u said especially about the millennium falcon arc being your favorite. Truly a wholesome take on the story and characters of the managa.
You should give Made in Abyss a try, gorgeous artwork, incredible worldbuilding and a really dark story. Also, is really short, you can read it in a day.
Do you recommend manga or should I wait for anime
Cuz right now I am reading bleach so not much time
The manga isn't finished yet and the wait between chapters is painfully long. The anime is the better version, with the soundtrack composed by god himself, and there's a new season coming soon wich will get the anime really close to the current events of the manga.
@@gabrielmartins-xt6rx I’m waiting for the anime of S2 of Made in the Abyss. I need to watch the movie. I watched all of S1.
I envy you so much, to be able to read Berserk fresh
Man... You started the journey of a new frontier with one of the best and cherished story.
Berserk has been a pillar of support for me for more than a dozen years, and losing someone who I saught out to belike was devastating... But the lesson he's instilled in Berserk was to keep on keeping on even in the grimest of times. So I'm glad to find a new struggler that found something within the world he has created.
If I can leave a suggestion for something to read(and I'm guessing you already opened a huge can of wurms with this vid that has bombarded you with suggestions.. so I'll keep it short)
Give the manga of Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind a try. It's the Magnum opus of the world famed animation director Hayao Miyazaki. Who's known to have created dozens of animated feature films target at children and television series too. But Nausicaa is a different beast, where Miyazaki thrived to create story of optimism for kids, in his down time he poured all the mature themes that cropped up into this manga. It's a short read of being a mere 7 volumes but manages to depict a masterclass in world building.
I still get emotional (soundtrack doesn’t help) good vid. berserk was really important for me, Miura legacy will live on, keep fighting strugglers.
'Twas my fist one as well. Best decision I've ever made.
Well yeah you used the whole fist. Good time :)
@@mugenbop lmao, and what a fist 'twas
I don't know how many people have similiar experience to mine but at first when I started seeing berserk images and videos about it my thoughts were "overrated, edgy, propably bad writing" but when I at last found myself reading the thing itself years later, it changed my way of seeing this around for the better. This thing is amazing
I didn’t mention it in the video but after I watched the movies years ago I thought the same thing even though I didn’t mind the movies, I really thought the hype was purely edgy vibe based
Congratulations. Berserk is a bittersweet experience, to say the least, but it's different. I was sucked into a binge as well and never stopped. I've read it twice completely. Cracks in the blade has to be my favorite chapter. It was a turning point for Guts a positive turning point.
And with that you earned my sub
It is so important to have good music while reading manga, and you have to find your own style of reading music, it’s way too different gor everyone. But with berserk anyone can just use the 1997 music
That’s because the 1997 soundtrack is pretty good. It’s like reading an old story forgotten, ancient, magical yet while also showing new things we never knew.
I think if you don’t it’s illegal??
then i have commited a war crime
@@cycy8699 :O
I'm almost 28 and have no clue what I'm doing with my life.
I'm glad you read it and that it had an impact on you too. The story of Berserk is my absolute favorite and it's something I'll never forget.
29 here. Just lifting weights, training Martial Arts, supporting my mom and keep moving forward for me.
“ He died doing what he wanted no matter what right? I bet he died happy” - Guts
Berserk. What a gem that is. Welcome to the Manga world. I've picked up a few myself during lockdown and I have been enjoying it a lot. Currently reading One Punch Man.
the ds music in bgm was a great choice
I wish Berserk was my first
Gonna leave some manga as recommendations:
- Vinland Saga
- Vagabond
- Oyasumi PunPun
- Golden Kamuy
- FullMetal Alchemist
Pandora hearts?
@@bullymaguire5838 Never heard if it
Golden Kamuy is one of my favorites.
Happy to hear it was your first manga👍
Just got the first 2 volumes for Christmas and I instantly fell in love. I can't wait to read more!
Hey! I stumbled upon your video as a fellow Berserk fan!
Check out Akira!
also 20th century boys!
Both completed and fantastic stories!
Will do!
You gonna like Vinland saga
Read the first chapter and boy I’m down :)
Nice darksouls backround music very fitting
Great video. You started with the best manga but there is still a lot of great stories told in manga. You should try Kingdom. It's the only one close to how good Berserk is. I would love to see a video about your thoughts on Kingdom
