Kid molested by giant moron, and has a totally not gay relationship with a manipulative narcissistic twink and grows up to be a giant angry rageaholic who does nothing but train as his quest for revenge consumes his body and aging him faster (cough cough steroids cough)
i used to watch this as a teen. saw it until Inuyasha got his sword upgraded the first time into cutting barriers (i think).
does it hold up? Is there a no filler playlist?
Because it's a fucking masterpiece. But to add: >Chad main protagonist with perfect genetics (effortlessly muscular, chad jawline and facial structure) >Qt 3.14 dark skin tomboy gf >Twink femboy antagonist >Cool dark fantasy themes that don't come across as tryhard >Compelling, well-written, and tragic characters who you can't help but root for and want to succeed >Incredibly interesting story that never fails to intrigue >Cool demon stuff >MOTHERFUCKIN' ZOOOOODD!!!!! >Cool fights
It's basically everything that appeals to men in general.
No. Not even close. Objectively wrong.

It holds up, but it goes on for way longer than it needs to. And that's not even including filler, which less than 10% of Inuyasha is actrually filler, but it honestly feels like 50%, since so many canon episodes feel like they're filler. It could have been 50 episodes shorter and nothing would be different. The Sesshomaru episodes are the best and it's worth it for those alone, though.
Anyone else feel like Berserk is getting too popular? So many normies like it now I see berserk shirts on DYELs and goobers all the time at the gym now it's embarrassing.
Yeah, same thing happened with Baki and JoJo's, they became mainstream. At the end of the day, you just gotta learn to enjoy them while ignoring the new fans who are there just because it's trendy.
>NOOOO!!! YOU CAN'T JUST LIKE THE THING THAT I LIKE!!!!! NOOOOOO!!!! I HAVE TO STOP LIKING THINGS IF THEY BECOME TO POPULAR!!
God, I fucking hate you gays who have this dumb, hipster mindset and see nothing wrong with it.
>NOOOO!!! YOU CAN'T JUST LIKE THE THING THAT I LIKE!!!!! NOOOOOO!!!! I HAVE TO STOP LIKING THINGS IF THEY BECOME TO POPULAR!!
I didn't say this retard. I don't care that it's becoming more popular, I just think it's new fans are annoying.
I have been here since 2006 I am well aware
It doesn't change that the non-anime topic boards are overwhelmingly not used to discuss anime and threads like this end up being off-topic because they have nothing to do with the actual board discussion. IST isn't titled "health & fitness in anime" it's titled "health & fitness" and if people want to discuss anime/manga there are specific boards to do so in
I love berserk too but moot has been gone for 8 years, I wouldn't get so bent out of shape over anime dislike or criticism like I'm still an autistic teen >verification not required
Because it’s like this man >life starts fucking this man over form the day he’s born, literally born from a hookers corpse after she’s been hung and he should have died but didn’t >his own father isn’t even sure he’s his father because his mom was a literal prostitute and therefor isn’t super close with him, is fairly avoidant and hard on him, mean at times, sells him to a pedophile so he gets ass raped before he’s even 5 >has to kill his rapist, kills first man before he’s even 10 >own father tries to kill him, kills father before age of 10 and entire group thinks he did it in cold blood so chases him away, escapes but wait it’s not over, he’s getting attacked by some fucking wolves now >winds up in mercenary groups fighting wars as a teen >joins a stronger merc group, develops true friendships, best friend is leader, even has petite tomboy gf >goes out of his way to rescue the leader who in the same day sacrifices all his new friends, rapes tomboy gf, and tries to kill him too
The man gets repeatedly fucked by life’s bullshit and is simply too hellbent on winning to die. It’s about fate and will and in a raw description handling your shit. He’s trying to find the meaning to it all which for a while he thinks is satisfying his bloodlust/getting revenge on Griffith but I think in newest chapters is starting to realize that’s not gonna bring him happiness.
You mix some things up. We don't know anything about Guts' mother. He was born from a corpse hung on tree and was saved by a crazed woman Shisu from mercenary band. Guts' was saved only because Gambino had very deep affection to Shisu.
I can't imagine being a new fan of Berserk. I've been reading this stuff since 2005 when I was 15. I still haven't read any of the post-Miura stuff. I guess I'll wait until there's a solid chapter's worth out, but I don't know if I feel like waiting another 15 years to find out how it ends.
I started reading it after Miura died but before his assistants continued his work. My enjoyment dropped to zero idealizing everything Miura could've done after that last chapter, ending it there would've probably better

I really like the Baki anime but i can’t bring myself to read the manga even if the art is god tier. is way too many chapters. I wantes to start since the pickle arc but i think i will wait the anime adaptation.
Baki more or less quits with the pretense of being anything but fantasy at the end of the Chinese Tournament arc. From Kidnapping GW Bush Jr onward it's just quack fantasy shit. Which can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on what you're there for.
>even if the art is god tier
BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! Who the fuck thinks Baki's art is "god-tier"? Are you fucking retarded? The number 1 criticism that Baki gets is that its art is fucking shit. Literally no one thinks it's good, you moron, even Baki fans acknowledge that it isn't good. What are you talking about?
t. uninitiated
I'm a huge Baki fan and I will tell anyone that the art is god tier.
The unique skin textures, muscle formations, proportions, the way the artist shows movement and impact, it's all exceptional.
But it's an acquired taste, you learn to appreciate it more over time, to the point where it makes other stuff look dull in comparison.
Yeah there's a lot of chapters but you should try to just start it, honestly it just flows, it's a page-turner there's not that much text to read. I just did that every evening and feel like the volumes flew
All because of chud youtubers milking money by doing clickbait >EXPLAINED< videos summarizing Berserk wiki. Manga should be gatekept, maybe then there would be better discussion about it here. Now we have containment board full of attention-starved manchildren who will make any contrarian retarded statement just to get any (you)s.
Becoming mainstream is unironically death to a work of art

god damn it you gay ass gaijin fags, shut the fuck up you pieces of bitch ass little shit, you're not obscure for reading manga you fucking wannabe hipster incel motherfuckers. fuck you.

Is a much better manga, instead of watching a guy solve every problem with plot armour and getting angry and using his sword, you're watching an autistic man devote his life to mountain climbing at the cost of his social life, physical and mental health.

There should be a chart of IST certified manga.
I can't find a decent way to read manga online anymore since all the shit I used to use got taken down, but do you have the image of him climing K2 and the author showing the size of the falling ice using cars, storage containers, etc. That and the image of him hanging in a void with just the rope are probably my favourite pannels outside of some of the stnning landscapes. Kokou no Hito was atmospheric as fuck.
it's shounenshit only edgy and with rape scenes
this
Guts is every shounen protagonist ever, just more serious, and the fights are classic battle shounen shit. I still like it but its overrated because of midwits thinking it's special because it's edgy.
I've considered making a ISTm/a/nga chart but I can't think of a lot of entries >berserk >kokou no hito >shamo >holyland >rookies >crows
Muscle has references to muscles (duh), but it's a gag manga.
I tried getting into it and stopped when it started becoming the POV of the deaf guy. I could care less about that dude and really only care about Musashi
Here, to add some >Sun Ken Rock >Crying Freeman >Bouncer (Mizuta Makoto) (This one is a MUST READ for you guys) >Out (also by Mizuta Makoto) >Dorohedoro and Dai Dark >Great Teacher Onisuka >Most of delinquent manga (except Tokio Revengers because is dogshit): Clover, A-Bout, Rokudenashi Blues >Jank Runk Family
Add Worst and Crows Zero 2 manga to the Crows part of the chart, also
eh im more of a fan of yuyu hakusho, berserk was top tier the first time anyone watches it. and subsequently rewatching it after a long ass time for nostalgia but it just feels hollow and like theres something missing.
>manga
its actually the case that, just like most zoomers obsessed about it, they only saw the anime and didn't realize how shit it became after conviction
I think Berserk went to shit after the Tower of Conviction arc, I mean, when he teamed up with a shounen-tier pack of characters. This part when they fought trolls and other abominations in the village felt incredibly artificial and really shounen-like, it was genuinely one of the most soulless parts of this manga. I suspect Miura knew he fucked up with this direction and got really lazy after that. I think this manga needs a total redo starting from the end of the ToC arc.
Yea same. I stopped caring right around the thunder pajeet arc too. When guts got his gay fairy jrpg party, thats when it became apparent miura liked his idolmaster a little too much
>ruins your social and emotional gains
cucked mindset, it's about perspective
I view it as finding the strength to persevere in the face of even the worst adversities
Schizo mindset
The average normie doesn't have to use misery porn to "believe it will shape him up"
The most banal and easy going fantasies of striving forward are enough for him.
You're just excusing abusive behavior
You see what you want to see, and since you're a cuck, you can only see Berserk as "misery porn" while other will se it as uplifting story about overcoming your own flaws and fighting back against them. morons like you will never understand Berserk
>gay OP doesn't get how based it is to tell fate and the powers that be, to go and royally fuck themselves. >something, something, something, existential existence >something, something, something, free will >something, something, something, survival of the ISTtest.
Why is OP such a contrarian gay? Have they even read the manga?
>entry level but people pretend it's underground >buff guy >literally me so sad shit >just alternative enough so you're not a Goku inspo mexican
It's the perfect fit for IST
>punished Gatsu goes on self destructive, obsessive, insane revenge plan against the gods that have wronged him using his his muscles and sheer will
Yeah Im thinking its IST related. Post-Conviction Guts is where he realizes theres more to life and learns to stop browsing basketweaving forums, which is where it really gets based
I'm checking out manga and going to read Akira, Ghost in the Shell, and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind.
It's kind of refreshing that most manga isn't based on characters that were made more than 60 years ago.
>IST
almost everybody likes berserk because it has different factors for every type of person to enjoy
i personally enjoy it because i'm edgy and enjoy violence, also the art is cool
The love of my life brutally cucked me, so I can really relate to the final scene of the original PowerPoint series. I started lifting to avoid ever getting my heart broken again.
He is like me
>buff guy against impossible odds
>just him and a big ass sword (until he gets his party)
>killing demons and destroying evil
What is there not to like?
you forgot the best parts
>retarded brown tomboy gf
>chud nemesis
Kid molested by giant moron, and has a totally not gay relationship with a manipulative narcissistic twink and grows up to be a giant angry rageaholic who does nothing but train as his quest for revenge consumes his body and aging him faster (cough cough steroids cough)
I can see why IST really loves this comic then.
Except his entire party gets killed in like a 5 minute scene.
Imagine speaking with confidence about a story you haven't finished
That's where it ends. Period.
>not reading lost children and conviction arcs
Literally the peak of the series you retard
you obviously havent read the manga
>thats where it ends
actually it gets worse
because they want to fantasize about having a life with problems that aren't just their crippling vanity and sexual insecurity.
everyone here’s been raped by a black man at least once
It's up to your father.
Inuyasha mogs berserk into oblivion

i used to watch this as a teen. saw it until Inuyasha got his sword upgraded the first time into cutting barriers (i think).

i totally forgot about koga, what a chad. love the part where he cucks inuyasha and takes kagome for himself.
but i always thought naraku was the real chad
Silence woman
inuyasha is the source of modern femdom fetishes
Because it's a fucking masterpiece. But to add:
>Chad main protagonist with perfect genetics (effortlessly muscular, chad jawline and facial structure)
>Qt 3.14 dark skin tomboy gf
>Twink femboy antagonist
>Cool dark fantasy themes that don't come across as tryhard
>Compelling, well-written, and tragic characters who you can't help but root for and want to succeed

Manga is gay
/thread
so are u
because this is an anime forum. here's my question: why are there people that don't like anime/manga but decide to browse an anime forum?
Because its not a tranigay forum. And tranigay is for children and groomers
The IST mascot is literally an anime girl. Have you never seen a 404 or been banned?

It doesn't change that the non-anime topic boards are overwhelmingly not used to discuss anime and threads like this end up being off-topic because they have nothing to do with the actual board discussion.

Set aside some time and read the manga, it's amazing and way better than the anime IMO. Start from the beginning
>even if the art is god tier
BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! Who the fuck thinks Baki's art is "god-tier"? Are you fucking retarded? The number 1 criticism that Baki gets is that its art is fucking shit. Literally no one thinks it's good, you moron, even Baki fans acknowledge that it isn't good. What are you talking about?
NTA but there's something deeply appealing about a manga that doesn't try to look good that ends up making the art...look good. Kinda like One's OPM.
Speak for yourself, Itagaki's art is cool as fuck.

big strong buff and badass dude who struggles with shit all of his life but still manages to go forward and never give up.
What is there not to like
Idk berserk is pretty trash though
For anyone who loves Berserk, start reading Vagabond.
on a similar note, read gamaran
it sometimes veers into the improbable but for the most part its a compelling reading experience
I tried getting into it and stopped when it started becoming the POV of the deaf guy. I could care less about that dude and really only care about Musashi
I feel like Baki is more degenerately meatheaded
Only acceptable IST manga is Otokojuku, reading should be mandatory.
I prefer otokonoko
>Otokojuku
I gave it one chapter cuz I was bored, that fucking scene where the old dude gets revived by the straight march....
I don't read, books or mangas. should i watch the anime? (there's an anime of this, right?)
Watch the 1997 original series, it's great.
it's pretty shit quality wise imo

what am i in for
The beginning is quite strange, I guess, but it's good and it gets ten times better with time
It's going to be weird because it's not chronological.
Because IST is the gayest board here.
Without Guts, I wouldn't be lifting at all.
Thanks for the inspo king!
eh im more of a fan of yuyu hakusho, berserk was top tier the first time anyone watches it. and subsequently rewatching it after a long ass time for nostalgia but it just feels hollow and like theres something missing.
Picrel - because it captures the current state of things and also becazse the gates to hell may literally open in any given second
>manga
its actually the case that, just like most zoomers obsessed about it, they only saw the anime and didn't realize how shit it became after conviction
Most western media is fake and gay in modern days.
Berserk shines in current times. if this were the 80s it would be just another manga.
>guy who trains 24/7 but gets cuckolded by gigachad aryan
sums up this pajeet board
Have you read any recent Western comics?
I was tired of anime protagonists being either tiny or medium sized midwits, I'm pretty tall myself, so I found it more entertaining to follow Guts.
real bros and intellectuals read real shit not your gay sword fantasies
I think Berserk went to shit after the Tower of Conviction arc, I mean, when he teamed up with a shounen-tier pack of characters. This part when they fought trolls and other abominations in the village felt incredibly artificial and really shounen-like, it was genuinely one of the most soulless parts of this manga. I suspect Miura knew he fucked up with this direction and got really lazy after that. I think this manga needs a total redo starting from the end of the ToC arc.
Yea same. I stopped caring right around the thunder pajeet arc too. When guts got his gay fairy jrpg party, thats when it became apparent miura liked his idolmaster a little too much
Shouldn't be. Pic related has more SOVL and I think is more relatable for majority of IST
I used to like berserk but then I realized it's just misery porn that ruins your social and emotional gains.
what was that picture son?
>ruins your social and emotional gains
cucked mindset, it's about perspective
I view it as finding the strength to persevere in the face of even the worst adversities
Schizo mindset
The average normie doesn't have to use misery porn to "believe it will shape him up"
The most banal and easy going fantasies of striving forward are enough for him.
You're just excusing abusive behavior
what the fuck kind of projection are you on right now?
who correlates a comic book to abusive behavior?
You see what you want to see, and since you're a cuck, you can only see Berserk as "misery porn" while other will se it as uplifting story about overcoming your own flaws and fighting back against them. morons like you will never understand Berserk
hope you guys muster the strength to fight your demons (talk to girls)
nah, bro, i'm good
I heard guts was raped by a moron and his gf was raped by a femboy. I'm not reading it
Berserk is a case study on how to fight so fucking hard that even literal demons have no idea how you're still alive.
it shows a boy getting raped but not turning out gay, by the slimmest of margins.
a true fantasy.
>gay OP doesn't get how based it is to tell fate and the powers that be, to go and royally fuck themselves.

Total ISTcore
I only watched the anime
>punished Gatsu goes on self destructive, obsessive, insane revenge plan against the gods that have wronged him using his his muscles and sheer will
Yeah Im thinking its IST related. Post-Conviction Guts is where he realizes theres more to life and learns to stop browsing basketweaving forums, which is where it really gets based
I'm hopping to hit that chapter, but so far I'm still stuck in the post eclipse part.

Akira is unironically the best manga ever written

almost everybody likes berserk because it has different factors for every type of person to enjoy
i personally enjoy it because i'm edgy and enjoy violence, also the art is cool
That seems like it would take forever to draw.
oh it absolutely did, lol
was well worth it though, very enjoyable series
The love of my life brutally cucked me, so I can really relate to the final scene of the original PowerPoint series. I started lifting to avoid ever getting my heart broken again.
>original PowerPoint series.
the fuck is that? google doesn’t show me shit
I believe he's talking about the 1997 anime
oooh the berserk anime, yeah that makes more sense lol
Stop reading after lost children arc, that's when it gets shit
Because guts is me and I am guts
