By far one of if not my favorite manga character. Guts’ story of constant suffering, perseverance, defiance, and struggle is so inspiring and heartbreaking. Even his beginning story was sad. He’s a reminder to keep going forward despite the circumstances in front of you.
You don't even know how the story ends. Does sticking the landing even matter or it just doesn't matter? 3/4 of an awesome story makes best all time ever?
funny little fact. Guts appearance is based on a actual person. Götz [which is nearly pronounced the same] was a German mercenary (and count if not wrong) wielding a massive sword AND having a state of the art mechanical hand. which may still be admired in a museum.... but that is almost all the similarities
One of the greatest "real" hero stories of all time... Most just follow the typical "hero's journey" format; especially when it comes to non-literary fiction such as Berserk. Even then, it holds up. It holds up and even transcends it's medium. It doesn't exist only to be subversive, or to go against the grain in terms of modern manga, but completely devours it in a way that could only be compared to Salman Rushdie, Joyce, or Hemingway. I know that this story will be remembered and spoken about for a very, very long time. I'm glad I was alive to witness it.

What I love about the golden age arc is that the depict Griffith to have all the traits of a normal hero. He was a flawless leader never doubted himself and was loved by everyone. While Guts had many flaws and a traumatic past. That's why the end of the golden age arc was so shocking when I first watched it. Guts is unlike any hero I've ever seen.
Guts is the most tragic character I have ever come across... Everything he has gone through shows in guts' eyes. Sadness, longing, anxiety, fear,rage, it's all in his eyes...
I always compared him with Wolverine. They both went through traumatic events since child, they always care for their comrades, they both violents and anger is their favorite weapon, they both were used or betrayed, and they both loved someone that was taken from them. So yeah, they had a lot of things in common.
Miura Kenta’s work on Berserk is a masterpiece. Guts is proof of that he goes there’s so much during the manga. It’s absolutely sad, but you feel for it and that’s how Miura work nails those feelings you feel for all characters, especiallyGuts.
If you said "one of the most well written protagonists ...." that would be a reasonable thing to say, but to say he is and will always be the most well written protagonists in all of human literary history sounds a little ridiculous. There never was or never will be a protagonist written better than Guts? That's a subjective opinion for the past and it's unknowable whether a better one will be written in the future. He is ONE of the most well written. Not THE most well written in history and forever.
Yes what he went through in the 2016 anime was truly painful and traumatic that he would been sympathize and relate by victims and survivors of child abuse rape and sexual assault
I've watched most of your Berserk deep dive videos and I haven't been disappointed. One note for this one, though; I think you kind of glazed over the growth of Guts' and Casca's relationship ... You delivered it out of order and the only details you gave was that "it changed". Secondly, I would've enjoyed hearing more on how he met his party. Otherwise an exceptional video! You'll keep getting plays and likes from me.
Today's protagonist: I wanna be the strongest hero, I was born normal, etc. Guts: hold this Eclipse Guts' story of pain, suffering, and tribulation is what makes him the bad ass he is today.
Like a combination of a Frank Castle, John Rambo, and Logan aka Wolverine persona/tragic life story. Total war, carnage, death, rage, fury, betrayal, and suffering. You get a Guts.
BERSERK my favorite anime, manga every time i watch it can't help to get emotional the soundtrack is lovely. nail it by the way you explain BERSERK ORIGINS
U said Guts Mudered Gambino u should have said he killed Gambino out of Instinct, Murder" means premeditated killing ,which it wasn't....Great Job though keep going Berzerk is topshelf Anime/Manga which has inspired the DarkSouls Games & Bloodborne ....
crazy thought here, but is it possible that the reason we do not know Guts father is because of a secret undisclosed move by Skull Knight..Reason Skull Knight can even make the move is because he is in some way Guts father or some distant relative since we all know Skull Knight was King Gaiseric.. that is why Skull Knight is so heavily intrigued by Guts because he could be what Skull Knight couldnt be.. I would think that has to be an awesome twist on things but would possibly make sense
How did _all_ the Band of the Hawk end up at the same place to be pulled into the interstice? Did they all chase after Griffith when he took off in that wagon?
Wait okay so as a non manga reader or anything 😅 I’m just now getting all this. Didn’t the author of this series pass away? And if so that means this series isn’t even finished?! SO WE DONT KNOW IF GUTS KILLS GRIFITH?! Please tell me I’m wrong!!
From watching this. I have a bad feeling he ll end up doing the same thing his ennemy did. ( I think this all manga is about circular patterns. He almost turned into his father. I think he will be turned into his ennemy.) i think he ll become a demon himself in order to defeat griffin. I wonder if Griffin has always been intent on becoming a god or if he made the decision after having his body ruined by the king's torturor. It s clear he was always manipulative and a user, but i'd like to know if he was a total psychopath.. He used the poor princess, but i wonder if he liked casco or if he regarded her as a possession and was not jealous for romantic reasons.. In fact, watching this i wonder if assaulting and kidnapping her was about her at all. I think if he is in love (not love really but i don't have a better word.) with someone it would be with guts, and i wonder if he was punishing casco for taking Gutts from him. He can't have been a total psycho, as the sacrifice to become a demon god must be of poeple he loved, and so he must have loved his band for real. Did he always carry a wierd neckless, a demon egg !? So he must have intended the whole thing from the start. Was he already halfway there ? Is that why he could beat Gutt easely when they first met or is it just skill not demonic powers.. No depressive person should watch this. It s too dark frankly and there s no promise that the ending wouldn't be darker. Too much despair frankly
I am curious will Kenatro Miura's friend will give Guts' story closure and a way to remove the brand from himself or Casca, since he is finishing the story of Berserk in his honor. I am not certain if Guts will live or perish with Griffith and the god hand in the final chapter but I personally want a good ending for him due to the torture and drama he endured since birth.
He said that Miura told him how the story would end and that he would do his best to translate that to the pages without any add-ons or filler or original intakes. So if Miura envisioned the ending for Guts to be a good one, that's what we will see.
Gust must become what I will call, "The Living Sword". In order to move forward. Because. That's what I think he has left. The sword. What do I mean? The will that gave him hope. Survival. And. For him to survive. He had to turn himself into his weapon. Til the day he is free from his demons - or - consumed by them.
If you had kept calling the group, band of the hawk I would have given this video a thumbs up. You kept calling it band of the falcon which is wrong. You keep butchering names in many videos. Very disappointing for a channel that covers a lot of good subjects.
The author of the manga called them "The band of the falcon". In translation for English speakers it was turned into "The band of the hawk". Why do you think Griffith names his kingdom Falconia, and one of the Berserk chapters is called Millennium Falcon
By far one of if not my favorite manga character. Guts’ story of constant suffering, perseverance, defiance, and struggle is so inspiring and heartbreaking. Even his beginning story was sad. He’s a reminder to keep going forward despite the circumstances in front of you.
Did you just use a possessive apostrophe properly?!
Fuck yeah, you did!
AND an Oxford Comma?!! Sheeeeeeit.
My sincere respect.
@@barrymaaslow3480 thanks dude. Proper grammar usage is paramount imo lol
Guts is a dead man .He is born from death and he will also be merged in death after the end of main story of Manga.
One of the best manga ever. It got me through some seriously rough times.
RIP Miura.
One of the best pieces of fiction period🔥
Berserk is (and always will be) the greatest story ever told 💯
You don't even know how the story ends. Does sticking the landing even matter or it just doesn't matter? 3/4 of an awesome story makes best all time ever?
@@porkflaps4717 post Miura/pre Gaga? . I would at least say it's a must read/watch.
@PORK FLAPS it has a happy ending. guts is reunited with ol girl on that elf island and they live happily ever after just letting everything else go

@@alexmoliviatis6666 That's awesome. Never knew. I'll have to look into it.

Guts can't die because death can't see him he's born from death himself.....
Do more like this. One on all berserk story, specifics, all lore, love it
The greatest character to ever appear in fiction
Guts will always be the most well written protagonist of all time.

"Berserk All Roles Reversed". Love your videos. All comments from me in quotation are just ideas for different views
Even Murphy🥸 from Murphys Law don't have it as bad as ☠️Guts☠️
"Rkyard was exempt from the brand of sacrifice even though he was a member of the band of the falcon."
Loving these berserk vids. Remember the author's name is pronounced MEEH -YOU -RA.

I need some new anime to watch

Long overdue on my guy Gatsu! But really learn the content, many words and big errors on this

LoL, Guys does have mad luck throughout the series.
