One day we will get that WIT studio Berserk anime adaptation, with the chad guts getting the anime glory he deserves.
Can wait for another 10-20 years for stellar anime adaptation hehe from WIT
I hope madhouse or David productions could do it. Madhouse' would be better. But we wouldn't get a second season.
Or ufotable man one of the best studios in Japan for anime
Or check out Studio TAKA on here as they're adapting the manga.
@@Daddy-xh4gk seeing as DP made a successful adaptation of the wacky story that was jojo, I have faith in them getting berserk right
An action dark fantasy manga doing romance better then 99% of romance anything is hilarious to me.
Yeah I really like Donovan too
@@Hyuin휴인 you need therapy man.
@@Hyuin휴인 he will come to your house to give you a Christmas gift really soon
It's because the romance is subtle. Like in real life. They don't go around proclaiming their love for each other. Even to the point where the idea of love is confusing to them. But you know it's there because of what they're willing to sacrifice for it. It's not a story of good versus evil, it's a story about love vs evil. Griffiths dream vs The love Guts feels for his companions. And I think that's really where Guts strength comes from. Sure he's an angry dude but nobody can hate like a man that has known love.
That kinda says more about how shitty romance media is and not how great Berserk does it, because it dont.
The one and only title that totally sounds like clickbait but is actually 100% veridic.
Manga and working out 💪💪seems pretty cool and Savage berserk mode workout would only buff them muscles
I mean not the best in anime cause of the adaptation

My friend: “How the hell does he lift that sword?”
Me: “You want the long version or the short version?”
short version: he was lifting when he was months old bro
@@AhmadAhmad-xv5cr bout sums it up
Its simple, he used a normal sword as a child which made him feel comfortable with swords bigger than him

Guts is a compelling protagonist to me personally because - at the end of the day - the guy just wants to find a place for himself in the world and be happy. It's that one desire that still grounds his humanity, no matter what kind of terrible shit he goes through with each arc. And he makes genuine connections with people. He's human, neither wholly good nor wholly bad. Just someone who's looking for happiness in a bleak world.
Guts starts out as a human hurt and destroyed by people, not knowing what love or compassion is, just trying to survive. But his experiences with his first group ignited in him the spark of looking for a reason to live and he learned that it was love. He lost everything and fell into a hole. But he discovered people who taught him things, Guts started as a human, but thanks to love, he matured and became a hero. Unconventional and cruel, but a hero
Guts are Doomguy would make the best duo.

That’s all I can say to that fucking masterpiece you just typed: GOD MUTHA FUCKING DAMN
Guts is basically the "superman" that Nietzsche talks about
Griffith is too. The whole relative morals thing and crossing the moral border for achieving goals. And the whole Great Men theory( individuals change the History).
I love you just for making that connection! 💜
@@Julie_Serenity Me?
The “higher man” is an ideal that little to none have ever reached. I’m not sure if nietzsche was really aiming for more of an ideal for greater human achievement with the higher man as a symbol rather than a person.
@@user-bo3jo2ek2p You and arkhelious! Nietzsche was profound for his time, and I'm glad to see more people acknowledging his work. After all, Guts and Griffith are one and the same, just different sides of a coin, similar to the concept of good and evil.

Berserk alone made me appreciate manga as an art form way more, by far the greatest story of all time. Ive never loved a story more than Berserk. RIP Kentaro Miura you will forever be in my heart
I feel like this words have come out of my mind and also been in my mind many times, Berserk really leaves a mark for us strugglers

*AAHHHHHAHAAAHAAYAYAYYYYY*
*AAAAAAHHHAAAAEEEEYYAAAAAA*

it’s the best still
What makes Guts the greatest protagonist, is that it's not only his story we are reading, it's ours as well; losing loved ones, being betrayed, questioning our own existence, we see facets or moments in our lives within his story and can relate so deeply with him. What make's him so inspirational is that he can carry all that pain and hardship, and still manage to pull through. We grow with Guts both in narrative and a literal sense (waiting months and hiatus'). Guts isn't perfect, and isn't untouchable, but that's what really connects us with him.

Whaaat, Guts has it waaaay easier. He is tall and handsome (85% or real life men are straight out ugly), he is in peak physical condition despite the fact, that he SHOULD be crippled by this point. He doesn't have chronic pains unlike majority of real life people and has impenetrable plot armor. He suffers no genetical hair loss. And on top of that, he has a clear, honorable goal in mind, unlike real life people who just screw around and do random crap until they die.
He is hot, his life has meaning, he has plot armor and his life is not a neverending agony. I'd trade my place with his, any time!
@@nihilism6226 - “tall and handsome” that’s completely subjective, if he was, the majority of the women in the story would be ogling him all the time.
“Peak physical condition.” Guts looks like he’s in his mid to late 30s, even though he should be early 20s.
“Doesn’t have chronic pain and has impenetrable plot armor.” The brand literally makes him bleed, attracts demons to him every night, and his “impenetrable” plot armour is killing him every time he uses it. Also, if he had plot armour, shouldn’t he be handily winning every encounter?
“He suffers no genetical hair loss” His hair is turning grey at early 20s. Might not be as bad as balding, but that’s still something that isn’t normal.
“Clear honourable goal in mind.” Is getting revenge really that honourable? Is it really that clear to him that he should be seeking revenge, risking it all, when he finally reunited with his partially-mentally recovered loved one?
He’s tall, yes, but average in appearance, he struggle with his existence and finding a meaning to his life.
If you want to live in a living hell, get raped as a child, have no family, have your best friend betray you and kill the only family you ever knew, rape the one you love in front of you, the last thing your right eye would ever witness, lose your left hand, be branded for eternity to end up in hell, be hunted day and night by demons and undead, all the while trying to defy gods and fate itself, go right ahead and trade your life for his.
@@RyuuJinLee Hey now that you put it like that, it still doesn't seem as bad as my actual real life! After all, Guts can swing around 400kg heavy sword like if it was a wooden stick.... That's some crazy strength and health! Sign me up for that!
@@nihilism6226 lol ok
@@nihilism6226 🤣🤣🤣I like you, sign me up as well, don't like the rape part though.
I've been in love with Caska for over 20 years.
She's my favorite female character ever.
Everything about her is so authentic and real it's almost hard to believe she's not a real person.
Bro it's a fictional character 💀
fact tho
brother, 20 years? are you alright
shes not even real akh
@@jundullah9869sometimes fictional characters are more real than real people.
@@chianchen776 nah but now that i think about it i agree with OP, but i'm not in love with Casca i'm in love with women who are like her, she became my standard in women but i don't love her specifically because she is a fictional character like, you can love her but it will never result in a relationship you feel me? But having a Casca-like woman with such a brutal yet authentic identity (brutal because before the waterfall scene, Casca was an absolute b*t*h to Guts even tho he always did good things to her, but the fact she changed since she saw that this man was truly something else for her heart, and that she ended up realizing he was the one and got past her traumas to give him her body is just absolutely beautiful and is one of the most strongest proof of love that i could witness in fiction and reality, idc about nun but Casca/Guts is the best romance of all time) is my way to go now, and i can thank Miura-sensei for this. So yeah i think you can understand how much this fictional woman changed my perception of love and romance, she single-handedly made me understand that lust was a trap of the Devil and that her relationship with Guts was the true thing i always wanted : pure, authentic, uninterested and essentially good-intentioned romantic love, in sum i fucking love Casca and Berserk is a masterpiece (lol).
Guts’s philosophies and development is by far the most deep and fantastically expressed I have ever seen in not only manga, but media in general.
Try the Second Coming of Gluttony (Light Novel) too. Extremely realistic, deep and emotional development with badassery and lots of world building.
Loved that shit and its up there with berserk for me; maybe even higher
@@smittywerbenjaggermanjensen69 will definitely check that out, thanks for the recommendation!
Johnny joestar is even better
Wouldnt go as far as media in general. There is too much to just blatantly make statements like that.
It's a sad fact but berserk can't be animated again the world too sensitive and no studio really want to do it especially since they're even more restricted to animate certain stuff
Unless its crowdfunding
If goblin slayer can get a good anime, berserk definitely can
@@Mrbeastlyswag1 Goblin Slayer is not nearly as bad
@Landp Well if berserk had a new proper anime, it wouldn't be catering for children. It would definitely be catering for adults since it's a seinen
The fan made motion comic is as good as it's gonna get
I simply cannot feel like there's a plot armour around Guts. Every time he 'escapes' because of PA, he suffers. He suffers a lot. He suffers so much, so I cannot see plot armour, only his torture. It's like he is not lucky to be alive(even if he is)
Honestly it feels like Causality is just playing with him like a toy trying to find new ways to make him suffer
See you guys in a decade when twitter cancels berserk's new adaptation
Yeah and this why I am kinda glad the berserk isn't mainstream cause of Twitter
Welp berserk is unfortunately getting hate on twitter
This aged like fine wine minus the adaptation part.
Im convinced youre the half sibling of that Medium bitch from griffith's Band of the hawk 2.0

U spelled Cory from Cory in the house wrong
Strange timeline
I could never be a chad or great man like Guts. Guts is a super human. He had every reason to give up and never did once. He was so human and just wanted to be happy. I wish he could have been happy.
The guts theme meme is exactly why I got into berserk. I’m so glad that I did, it’s really good so far!
Welcome struggler
And another struggler is born. Welcome to the journey my dude.
Have you finished the anime?
Me too, but unlike you I'm not so grateful...
@@okplay9446 I’m planning to watch the 1997 version once I get through reading volume 14 which is when I heard anime ends
At 10:18 I think you get exactly why Guts is such a well-written, relatable character. His trauma isn't "solved" by falling in love. In poorly written fiction trauma can magically be "solved" by a character falling in love, or finding a purpose in life, or some other plot contrivance. But in reality, trauma doesn't work this way. It's always part of you, and a post-traumatic response can be drawn out of someone for a variety of reasons. If someone is in a good place in life where they have strong relationships, they might be able to deal with their trauma better than they otherwise would - and this happens with Guts as well - but nothing "solves" trauma. Like everything else with Guts, trauma is an endless, lifelong struggle.
and now Casca is stuck with it
I just want the to of them hugging. Thats all i ask for. Give our man a hug. he deserves one
Dude Guts theme is the best OST EVER...i just keep listening to it. Everytime i read the manga it's with this song in the background.
AoT's WMiD theme is so good I use it practically all the time during action scenes (even while reading Berserk lol). Also the climax of Millenium Falcon goes well with No Time For Caution.
The entire Berserk 97’ OST is perfect for the manga. That and the Dark Souls OST.
@@Odinsday true , the behelit ost is one of the most fitting Ost ever
Sameee
tbh Blood & Guts from 2016 is better
I once commented that berserk is the greatest manga of all time, and someone said "yeah only if you've read less than 5 manga". And I'm like
....did you even read berserk??
A lot of people use that stupid argument if they don’t agree with you. Its quite annoying.
I would've been like yeah the other 4 manga were Vegabond, Vinland Saga, Jojo, and One Piece...all great.
@@dkvitaleme Yeah although Jojo and One Piece arent all that good imo I would put Bleach, Naruto, Berserk, Magi, Hellsing, Hunter x Hunter, Black Clover, and many others over one piece and jojo. I dont hate them or anything and like some aspects and enjoy them but one piece in particular is overrated for me personally and I get that argument thrown around all the time, especially by op fans. Anyway if its up there for you its your personal opinion and thats just fine no need for that ridiculous argument from other people.
I cant comment on Vagabond as I haven’t read it yet but I have heard great things especially from the masked man.
Over the years I've come to the conclusion that the people who think like that just read through berserk once and possibly speedread style. I know I can't expect everyone to read it numerous times but it's insane how much subtleties in all aspects that you pick up on when you take your time to read through it. Not to mention the artwork, seriously it's in the pantheon of best of the best. Miura is masterful at what he does, but most importantly he's deliberate. Even chapter 362 which blew so many minds was put into play in Miura's plan LONG before we even reached that point in the story, and I'm talking like 20+ years. The symbolism, psychological & philosophical depth of berserk is incredible. Just go to the channel Spired to see why if you haven't seen it yourself while reading, the manga certainly has its flaws but overall it's one of the most monumental pieces of fiction and artistic work ever produced.
@@YhwachTheAlmighty I don't think I've ever heard anyone put Bleach, Naruto, Clover, and Hellsing over One Piece or Jojo. I've read them all and I disagree completely. One Piece especially...world building and characters and so much more One Piece is great.
The greatest protagonist in anime and manga is fanservice
yes pp
A man of culture I see.
U mean eyeless protagonist
Casca boobies👀👀👀👀🦧
I remember really disliking him at the beginning and man was I not prepared for how much I would love this character. As an author myself I’m trying to add more layers and depth to my own protagonist and seeing someone like Guts helped give me a really good blueprint. The human aspect of his character is really strong and his tragic backstory gives really good context to who he his. Goated protagonist
I was team Griffith till he raped casca
@@joejohnson-tm4wx we all were.
@@KittSpiken was a sad day for us all indeed.
@@joejohnson-tm4wx and you know, still kinda willing to look past it. I don't, but the Great feats he's accomplished and Casca isn't a potato anymore.
It does seem he's done a lot of good since becoming a demon king.
@@KittSpiken I agree its likenhe had to do what he had to do and did one over on the god hand he is alright in tht aspect, some redemption.
Rest in peace Miura. His ending would have been flawless
I gotta say, I got drawn to Berserk because of the gore, and to see how ridiculously overpowered Guts was, and how detailed the art was, and everything besides the actual story at hand pretty much.
Now, I just want Guts and Casca to be happy together.
Best part is that Guts isn't overpowered (well... against non-humans). Every major fight is a struggle to win.
New chapter coming soon yall. Looks like we will get an ending to the greatest story of our time.
I will never get tired of berserk praise.
Guts is the best Character ❤️
I usually don't care all that much for the protagonists, and also, I really like dark themes and villains. So starting Berserk, for the little I knew about it, (Griffith "misbehaving" with Casca during the Eclipse) I had the idea that he was going to be my favorite character period.
To my surprise, Guts exists, and he just blew me away. He is without a doubt the greatest character I've had the pleasure of experiencing.
I tried introducing berserk to a friend whose favorite anime and manga is one piece and he said "haha big man swing big sword and cut stuff OMG" it's saddening that people won't even give it a try based off first impressions. I watched 3 episodes of one piece even though I think 90% of it's fanbase has the mental capacity of a 14 year old (and I was right, that anime is over the top childish) but I gave it a chance nonetheless.
Grass is Green, Water is wet, and Berserk is a masterpiece.
This is so true one piece fans litterally are the most biased and children acting people. Me personally I’m a big naruto fan but I read berserk and saw it for the masterpiece it was and I loved every second of it. Berserk is one of my favorite mangas and always will be
I apologise for his behaviour as a fellow OP fan. Anime communities can be really toxic sometimes (just look at the recent AOT vs DS vs OP war on Imdb). However, One Piece for me atleast has been the most influential and well written piece of fiction I have ever read. Nothing to take away from Berserk, I love Berserk and I was literally in tears after hearing about Murata's demise. OP is, and will always be my favorite Manga.
I love OP and Berserk. There is definitely irony in your comment, you dislike that your friend judged Berserk superficially and you're doing the exact same thing with OP. They're both fantastic stories and I'm glad to have every volume of both in my collection.
@@raghurajrathore3337 man same I absolutely love one piece but I also adore the story and characters berserk has provided, also dw every fandoms have their share of biased people (a very large number) but you will always also find people who are open minded to new stories. Cheers!

There’s a typo in the title of the video. It says “the greatest protagonist ever in anime and manga.” When it’s supposed to say “the greatest protagonist ever in all of fiction.”
I just started reading berserk yesterday and haven’t made it far enough to give a proper assessment, but from what I’ve seen and heard I’m very excited
You’ll love it
Welcome to the journey struggler.
i finshed it yday and he took 5gb data from me but its worth it
I hope you finished it now 💀
100% factual. Guts just has so much to him i genuinley do think hes the best, and ive only recently discovered this anime/manga.
Better late then never
@@ravenwhiteduck6460 well, on the bright side, he didn't know experienced the boat
One thing I love about guts is that you assume that the reason he pushes people away when you first begin the black swordsman arc is because he’s inherently selfish and rude. But in reality, he’s doing it because he knows that he’s going to hurt the people around him by knowing him. They’ll be attacked by the apostles chasing him, so he has to look detached and rude when he meets people so they don’t get hurt. It’s so sad
Because you know how much he cares about other people. I love guts so much
Rest in peace Miura
Actually I like how Guts was written and developed: Initially a hero with a temper/anger issue in Golden Age, then an antivillain in full rage since the Eclipse, then a kinder and gentler human after Conviction Arc who can suppress his inner darkness and anger in front of his nakamas, showing a round and unique character development
It gets better after golden age arc.
Nah, it was peak berserk
Berserk became trash after the Golden Age arc.
@@FearsomeVoid Not trash but It was boring after golden age arc
Lmao no. The other arcs (fantasia+conviction) are better than golden age
@@FearsomeVoidhatin ahh 💀💀
I realize and understand that the berserk, character guts, spans over well 30 years of hard dedication in writing to upper tag, honest. And I find it to myself and believe it so, that’s the best way to actually make this a live action movie is to go beyond the golden age when he is the black knight and explain it as a three movie trilogy. It has a span over three hours, long a piece to make sense of it. And it would be no different than what George Lucas dead was Star Wars, a new Hope. He set the standard for protagonist, growing in one section, and then, what you do is if it becomes that popular you go to a prequel setting, which is already set for the golden age which would be awesome on itself to be an actual prequel setting, which would be another trilogy at three hours long apiece. And then you would have to go to the sequels after the black knight, so that it is up going into the other archetypes of berserk or should I say guts character to continue the rest of the story to the end Wytchwood equivalent to be 12 movies in total if it’s a live action.
And for everything I’ve dove into and everything I’ve read so far I myself could easily make this one of the most popular characters ever. And I’m not a professional writer or anything I just know how to flush out a character and then give the backstory and then push it forward to make it more extravagant than what you would see in the Lord of the rings. I just believe in myself, that guts is the greatest protagonist of all time! And really, he is a protagonist, but he was also an actual what you would call, anti-hero, and then he groups of character over the Maga books, which, honestly you could just copy the almost the same forum when it comes to the original Star Wars movies from a new Hope to return of the Jedi, and then do the prequel’s to tell the backstory and then if they make enough money in the box office, you finish up or continue the story afterwords all the way from I forgot the name of it the, conviction era to the millennium, falcon to the Fantasia era, which every single stage of guts his character arc would have to be at least three movie with three hour, long, drawn out conclusions to finish the movie fully.
And even at that point, since, sorry, I forgot his name, but the author and artist of berserk should have been able to finish. The stories are to a point where there was a final end regardless of anything. I would hate to see any studio ruining it just because they want to subject, certain ideas and philosophies into it that are the complete garbage stand or in Hollywood. I could do it right incorrectly, but I would need every single source material that you would gain from only the books to make sure you do what is right to begin with.
I would follow every detail, and every character that has encountered guts, and I would make sure that every single, a horrific scene is made no different than what the manga books have given us as an insight to this world. The amount of information and photos and got us a character is what are the greatest characters I’ve ever seen in my life.
And I wish George Lucas knew about this to begin with, because Star Wars would’ve been a lot better. Because the only thing that I love about Star Wars, the most is the original trilogy. And even though the prequel‘s were kinda, OK, that saying very nicely, but the truth is the animated features that were about the clone wars were a lot better to begin with. But when it came to the brand new sequels by Disney, they totally just basically used a paint brush , and instead of adding water to the paint they threw in their own poop and then mix it together to act like that was gonna be good for society. They ruined Star Wars the second that Disney bought it out. Because they were not going to follow the original working Scripps that George Lucas was going to use if he was going to make the sequels which were the ones that JJ Abrams dead and totally ruined.
But if anyone has the right amount of money, and the right amount of producers, which is the money, especially if they have IOM do it, but it needs to be not part of Disney, it Hass to be its own separate cinema company to make berserk as good as it is as the books depicts everything on paperback. Because when it comes to the story itself, there’s so much information when it comes to the actual story itself through drawings, and everything else there’s no way you can really mess this up unless you’re refusing to add certain storylines in there unless you’re trying to ruin the background of the original character. Because without all these bad guys in between, and all the other horrible things that happen, you can’t build upon the character without those people involved that are evil.
Without the evil people, and you remove half of them, the protagonist will seem to be more empty, but not even as profoundly not only persecuted, but also, it seems like on every step of the way they got slims his life has been a complete struggle since he was born as a child.
So my whole point is, if you want to make a live action movie, I wouldn’t know what to do. I would need no more than a few months paid to read everything learn everything and then adapted as an actual Hollywood script that would make billions upon billions of dollars across the entire planet. And I don’t care about the money, I care more about making sure that the character retreated correctly as Guts should be 100%.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Joe from Ashita no Joe is also an amazing protagonist. And he has one of the greatest rivals in manga too
For Shonen manga,undoubtedly yes.
Riikiishi,Carlos remained my favourites.
And yes,fuck you José.
Classic pick.
Yes
Ashita no Joe literally had the first "rivalry" trope in anime and manga and it's also the best rivalry story ever done in anime and manga. A timeless masterpiece.
I wish Joe was more popular nowadays
Sad to hear you dropped gintama... I'm sure the further arcs would've hooked you up but as you said it's not for everyone
it wouldn't hooked him more or anything, it's just a gintama fans excuse that's it, gintama got alot of potential specially on drama side,but the writer didn't really use it for the good! yea there's some serious arcs that are good but they don't really deserve watching a 60 eps! yea u gonna tell me gintama is not really for serious writing, it's a gag anime!,then why u tell people wait for serious arcs? comedy is not really funny, u gonna tell me oh u have to watch other animes? well should i? me as s person who watched almost 150+ animes! i still don't find gintama funny, people say the greatest anime of all time? how? if they say the greatest comedy anime i will accept it,but the greatest of everything absolutely no! people say gintama has really good character development! no it doesn't, characters change their ego when ever the writer want,and pretty much they didn't change almost,yea few but not really, don't get me wrong,i love gintoki,but hes just a mixed between Deadpool+luffy
people say what's good about gintama is changing the genre sometimes,well that's not true cuz it's just like this story doesn't have a personality!
if gintama was shorter i sewar it was gonna be for everyone,but it is what it is.
why i said it was gonna be better, is the movie of benizuka arc,the movie is one hour and thirty minutes,and it's fucking amazing.why? Cuz it gives just what u want,not like the series,it makes u feel like the writer is forcing u to see those characters doing those things.
and let me say this, sometimes people say this just an opinion,but it's not just an opinion it's a facts,if u sick and ask the doctor what's wrong? he tell u, that's not an option or what he think but he just saying what u really got.
@@nugget6829 well,the truth needs proofs!
@@boychiha1685 you don't get the jokes. Just say that. Gintama is PRIMARILY a gag manga with some serious shit here and there. The jokes are something you won't get if you're neither Japanese or aware of the culture. You watched it for the wrong reason.
@@boychiha1685 thinking that it's only funny if you watched other anime is stupid and always will be... because not all the jokes are parodies
But disregarding it entirety for other aspects is just as dumb imo
Idk if you watched the show or just scimmed throu some vids on the internet because you really sound like you didn't
Also usually people who put their opinion as facts don't have much to say anyWay
@@boychiha1685 you should stop criticizing without actually watching the show 'cause you throwing out random takes
guts literally went through enough suffering for two lives and his character development is just god-tier
Every time I hear Guts’ Theme I get him so hard in the feels mannn
Something I loved is that guts is always sustaining some form of injury it always feels like he is at a disadvantage because of his human body that won’t break despite everything it’s going through it feels like guts keeps pushing his body further into this state of injury and manages to pull through every battle
Guts is my favorite character in all of Manga/Anime.
A year late, but Guts really personifies Neitzsche’s concept of the uberman better than any character in fiction. In the world of Berserk it can seem like there is no purpose, but Guts continues to move forward and create purpose for himself.
I know for a fact you'd love Allen Walker (the MC from D.Gray-Man) and the Millennium Earl (main villain) which makes it more frustrating that you haven't put it high up on your list to read yet. The parallels between these two characters are scary you're doing yourself a huge disservice. The most detailed shounen out there, yes I've read/watched HxH multiple times and it ain't close imo. Furthermore it doesn't rely on exposition.
Yeah, Allen is just so different
Finally,someone who mentioned D Gray Man.Fell in love with the show when I watched it for the first time last year.
D. Gray-man has the same problem with Berserk. Once a month you have to wonder if the writer has died or not
@@local_hotpotato Sad truth but more people need to be reading it man
That part when you talked about Guts and Casca almost made me cry. Thanks for the Berserk content, Mask. You're a legend.
Keep making berserk videos man, I just recently started it after many years of holding it off and I love it
Whenever I judge characters from an anime, I also take into account the voice acting. And that's where Gintoki shines from the rest.
Gintoki and Sugita (voice actor) is a match made in heaven.
Sometimes I ask myself whether Sugita was born to voice Gintoki or Gintoki was written to be voiced by Sugita.
I can agree on Guts as the one of the greatest protagonist in manga but in anime I still prefer Gintoki as the best protagonist :DD. But in all honesty, I don't really care about who is the one who will be clamied as the one of the greatest character of all time since we, people have some different opinions and we can't judge people who like other characters too since they all have a different preferences. So, I think its safe to say that we just need to enjoy things on what we truly like the most :DD. Have a Great Day! (lmao sorry if I have a retarded grammar since English is not my 1st language XD)
@@zaperator4449 yes he is a funny person but he still have some pretty fucked up life in the past (not gonna spoil anything but he have some stuff choices and decisons in his past) and I think the author wants to show Gintoki's funny side more so that the watchers/readers can be more stick into his personality as a funny character and nuking it aftrr with his emotional backgrounds.
Personal opinion
I believe that what would make Guts feel like he belongs is a family
he realized that sort of fulfillment before the Eclipse when the Band of the Hawk said that wanted to remain with him even after Griffith's return
when he loses them it's almost like Guts forgot what it was like to be loved
and with his new group he has some semblance of that back but the pain from the first loss still lingers
and it's best reflected by his change in design, he looks so tired and exhausted from the hell he has lived through that a family would be what could put him at peace
Felt this way when I first read Berserk 8-9 years ago and I still feel it now. Guts and Berserk are at the very top of the mountain not only in Anime/manga but for fiction in general! Nice video as always Masked Man.
I'm not even that big a fan of manga or anime but Guts is in my top 5 fictional characters of all time, the dude's written amazingly well.
Dark Souls got me into Berserk a few years ago. I absolutely love and appreciate Guts' suffering tgroughout the story be cause his suffering isn't there as a simple backstory but it's constantly brought up and we're reminded that this man has been thriugh so much shit as is and he still does his best to struggle forward. His suffering is what pushes him forward, it's what made him who he was, not the happy moments but the suffering and struggling; because our struggles make us who we are.
Thank you Miura for creating such an amazing character. Thank you, for inspiring Miyazaki to create my favourite game series.
General Dragon? HELLO?
Dont forget about sugon dese
@@agejihutchinson4994 Him and Hugh Mongus are tied for second imo.
Soske boske??
Nah I think Mufat is better than general dragon.
@@anochi8965 Fuck outta here Jack Geoff and Dixon are better
Beautiful video man. Keep up the fantastic work, you don’t miss.
I’ve said this in a comment for guts theme, but i believe the theme is so great because it’s not sad or angry, but lonely, which is something that I feel emphasizes Guts personality completely
Berserk deserves so MUCH more
I can listen to videos on Guts all day because everyone has similar but also different ways of their interpretation of the character, he's such a fascinating protagonist.
Thank you for mentioning the music. I do believe a lot of people Overlook the soundtrack and the music used in this Arc brings so much emotion to the show
I saw Gohan for a split second in the video.
Guts is everyone
This is gonna be a banger and I haven't even watched 30 seconds yet lol 🔥
turtle burgerrr lmao
Just recently I've caught up with the rest of Berserk and you put to script exactly what I've been thinking for the last few weeks! Great video, will watch your 'Berserk The Greatest Manga Of All Time
' video next.
My favorite moments of Berserk happen on the boat, the true strengths of stories do seem to happen in the quite- which is why I’ve always been a fan of the quiet between big arcs in manga. Fabulous and well thought out video as well!
Guts is the greatest embodiment of the Spirit of a warrior
All of the things people state about Guts are true and all but frankly that’s not the reason why I thinks he the greatest and my favorite protagonist of all time. Yes he’s human like you and me, and he has our problems like any other human would, but that just elevates even more why I love Guts as a protagonist. The main reason why I love Guts so much is because I relate to him in so many ways. You see I was born premature, and when I say premature I mean practically 5 months old. And thou I may not have been born out of my mother’s corpse like Guts, I was meant to be like he was if Shisu didn’t adopt him, a waste of air. The doctors told my mom that I wasn’t going to able to see right, I wasn’t going to be able to use my hands correctly, hell I wasn’t even going to be able to walk. I was meant to be nothing but a measly crippled. My mom prayed and struggled to get me the help I needed to prove to not only the doctors, but the entire world that they were wrong about me. And guess what they were so wrong about what my fate was meant to be. Just like Guts I fought against the odds and had help from the people I cared about to face the odds. That’s why I love Guts so much, because he’s just like you and me, a struggler, fighting day in and day out to prove to the world that they are wrong about us.
There's just something about Berserk you can't shake off....it's so beautiful and unique you can't put your finger on it..
Awesome bro !! Brought tears to my eyes.
Best storey ever created and I can't wait to see how it ends to finish one man's legacy
22 min video, woah this is going to be a treat!
You mean woaahh wa wooah woaaahhh
Another banger my man. Keep them coming
I'm in love with berserk in the past 2 months I've bought all 6 of the deluxe volumes waiting on the rest which is gonna be a long wait but worth it im forever a berserk fan now and you got me started down this path masked man thanks
if berserk was a book, miura would have a nobel on literature, but since it is a manga for "geeks and otakus" is not recognized as it should, but to be honest the graphicall aspect it is requiered and works beatifully in berserk
What else can come close to this masterpiece in anime or manga
@@novafn509 i would say berserk is pretty unique. Vinland saga and Monster are pretty good pieces of literature, but they lack the action that berserk has. Other good option is Gantz, cool as fk, but probably a bit simple, is like a really good action movie
HANDS DOWN! NO DEBATE!
Wow such an amazingly edited video big shout out to you for the consist anime vidz 🔥🔥
This video was amazing. I totally agree that Guts is truly the best protagonist ever. His character development is just so excellent.
Will their ever be a character that beats guts LOL a personification of prime human nature
*I tHInK yOu SpElLeD oOoOHh gINtOKi wRoNG!!*
But he did
Day 11 of asking where the masked man reads his manga
You can read it on mangahere
Tachiyomi is a pretty good app, you have to downolad it from the internet tho
I use mangapill.com
I use mangapill.com
He buys physical copies I think
A manga you might want to take a look at is "Dungeon Meshi" or its Localisation name "Delicious in Dungeon". The quick run down is its a old school DND/Japanese RPG setting in which the main cast cook and eat the monsters of the dungeon they are in. No Isekai stuff, the main cast are actual parts of the world with their own history.
Guts is essentially The Doomslayer before The Doomslayer. The two are basically like twins seperated eons apart.
Three years apart 1990-1993
@@ostangvulkahn1875 I'm talking about timelines not the years they we're created.
@@whitelichmage7004 still tho, it's neat to see.
Amuro Ray and Char Aznable from Gundam too have one of the best rival or protagonist/antagonist relationships in the medium
Yang Wen li is the best
Guts, Thorfinn, Musashi, and Edward Elric will always remain my favorite manga protagonists.
Brilliant! Life is hard. Time moves on. People change from pain.
I love how you can make a very valid argument for basically everything in berserk to be the greatest of all time.
- the greatest protagonist of all time
- the greatest antagonist(s) of all time
- the greatest side characters/supporting cast of all time
- the greatest story and character development of all time
- the greatest arc of all time
- the greatest fights of all time
- the greatest world-building of all time
- the greatest love story of all time?
probably not, but the fact that you can make a fairly good argument with all of these for a manga that's not even finished yet is truly impressive. It baffles me that some people don't even have berserk in their top 5. Truly the goat.
definitely not world-building, but yeah for everything else
@@TheMaskedMan yea I don't think it is either, probably one piece or something but it could be made
I wouldn't say it's the greatest love story, but it definitely does have an amazing one. As for supporting cast, it does have a lot of stiff competition
@@Ash_Wen-li I don't agree with all of these either, it's just crazy to me that a single manga can have the claim to literally everything there is and that's mind-blowing
@@felixhuang4185 Definitely. Miura really is a master of his craft
Johnny Joestar says hi
Gyro is better
I think you spelled Speedwagon wrong.
Best JoJo but not the best protagonist
@@iliveinsideyourhouse3943 also the best part, and also one of the best manga. Steel ball run is really something.
He is the best
I like Guts reflexes and regrets on things because I do it all of the time.
Dr Tenma & Guts my favourite seinin protagonist
Berserk is such a good story because they can have a scene where a man is choking out a woman, and have it be one of the most tragic and heartbreaking moments and make you empathize with the guy doing the choking. If you just walked into a irl scene where that was happening, you'd be like, wtf are you doing man, get off of her! Damn man, you got some problems.
Most series couldn't even put a scene like that, let alone give it so much depth for both of the characters. It's the epitome of nuance and understanding a scene for what it is saying rather than what it seems to represent at face value.
I think you spelt Krillin wrong.
*“ P o p goes the weasel ! “*
You spelled corey wrong.
For sure you misspelled Guts.
*sibamen
Yamcha*
I will never tire from the magnificence that is guts and Berserk despite my years in hearing it.
Almost didnt watch bcs i read the title and said "yes of course" but now im here. Getting emotional at every line. Wow i care guts.
Man guts is the best main character manga kaiji in my opinion is a close second but that’s it
I AGREE TOTALLY, GUTS IS THE BEST ANTIHERO OF ALL-TIME
berserk always comes to you at the right time in your life when your in deep shit and every time you grow up the series themes and story becomes more cherished in your heart it’s like a positive behilit
This video was worth every damn second to the point that I almost started to cry I don't know why but I think this manga exceeded my expectations by far and there you can realize how great It can be some "drawings" that can touch your feelings or something like that, well, I do not roll over and very good video for the best 22 minutes!
