Ya he definitely gave dark fantasy its title. Shit i remember some article classifying Fullmetal as dark fantasy and I was like this scurb has not read berserk. 😳
It’s honestly one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen online. I’m ngl editing the end of the video had me a little choked up, especially going through the ff14 clips. The impact Miura had on people is just amazing. Thank you sharing your experience 🙏
As a none ff14 player I was amazed at how many people loved this man in that game... to be honest I saw dozens if not hundreds that never knew of berserk pay respects due to a i.p. that, that person loved being inspired by berserk even saw videos from people that never touch anime or manga stuff... Rip Miura.
It is just truly heartbreaking for a man to put his entire soul and body into making what many people consider a masterpiece, for over 30 years, and pass before seeing it come to an end. It’s a shame we will never see Miura’s ending for berserk, but I can’t help but be happy we will at least see AN ending. Literally no one else BUT Mori could finish it. And we truly are blessed that he is finishing his lifelong friend’s masterpiece. Personally I think the new chapters are really damn good and I am just so glad we are getting them.
No, he didn’t. What the fuck is everyone on? He spent months, sometimes years between chapters just playing video games. And when he did write chapters he went out of his way to sexualize minors (schierke’s bare ass and moth girl’s tiddies not being covered by fur like the rest of her body) Miura made an incredible story but christ you guys are glazing him way too fucking hard, holy shit
I found out about Miura's passing during the first hour or so it was coming out. I was going through an extremely rough time and just started my first day at a job I got hired for. When I had arrived home, I received a notification from a RUclips channel reporting it and... to this day I've never felt such an impact. Miura was just one man amongst billions others, but it was (and still is) hard knowing that the world is missing that one man...
Thank you for sharing. I first saw the news a couple minutes after I woke up, I didn’t do much that day. Crazy how strong an impact the passing of a man we never met can have on us
Every time I stumble across any sort of tribute to Miura on the internet I have to lay back on my chair and close my eyes for a moment. Berserk has, for the longest time of my life, been a beakon to continue walking in the midst of the uncertainty of my life. I have wanted to give up so many times, and in a sense I had, but It's incredible to me how the right story, the right words at the right time can save you. I don't know sh*t about anything anymore, but I always end up going back to that place, that work of hope Miura created. It's not about "getting there where you wish to be", to me it's about the dignity of surviving another day: one more day at the time. Thanks for the video, it's beautiful.
Thank you for the thoughtful comment. Making this video I had a lot of time to reminisce on what berserk means to me. I feel the same way as you, berserk is one of those things that helps me push forward. Keep struggling, my friend.
Not only was he an amazing person but he had an amazing friendship. I can only imagine trusting someone with my greatest work of art to finish it if I pass. It not only shows their friendship but how deep their understanding of each other was to know that the other would stay true to their friends deepest ideas.
i kinda relate too, vividly remember getting the news in the middle of remote algebra tutoring. i hate math to begin with so i was completely out of it the rest of the session man it was rough
Im 33 years old and broke down crying at birthday about it .... I literally made up some bullshit about bring happy for family etc ... As they just wouldn't understand ...
Man you outdid yourself again this time. The storytelling was even better, and I learned so much about Miura and Mori. I didn't even realize it was THAT Mori, Holyland is another GOAT. Solid job man, you're easily the best manga channel around
After watching most of this so far the only thing i can think of is he had cancer and didn't want to disclose it. He had time to teach people to draw in his style with such foresight it seems too uncanny Absolute legend R.i.p Kentaro Miura
really like the narrative you presented here. if Miura likened himself unto Griffith and Mori unto Guts; it's the most fitting end for Mori to take over the story with Miura's passing. great vid once again; editing is great as always 👍
Miura’s passing hurts so much it’s heartbreaking that he didn’t get to live long enough to finish the series because he had so much more story to tell, but I’m grateful to Mori for continuing his masterpiece and I know that while it won’t be the same, he’s going to do the story and Miura the justice it deserves, I can’t wait for what comes next
I waited for your next creation like a kid waiting for christmas morning. Thanks you for this masterpiece and its amazing how managed to outdo yourself. Once again thank you, especially since you did it on the late Great Kentaro Miura, literally one of, if not, the best to do it. Berserk will always hold a special place in my heart alongside millions of others. I'll be eagerly waiting for your next upload! Rip Kenatro Miura.
I was there on the discord server.. All the voice channels were at capacity and the overwhelming outpour of support /grief /sadness by the news of his passing shocked us all so much that we all started sharing stories of how we found solace and strength in Miura's Masterpiece that is Berserk. RIP -K.Miura
On the day of his passing, the internet came together in a way I had never seen it before. For a few weeks after, I was seeing, "R.I.P. Miura" everywhere: comments on news channels, anime channels, every Berserk video I saw, even an ASMR comment section. The world mourned the loss of Miura sensei. The tragedy of the man not having the time to finish his masterpiece still saddens me to this day.
Fans see the tragedy, but if you are a true artist in any sense, you understand that the true measure of your story is whether it continues on to influence and positively impact the world in a positive way. Death is the cost of the human condition…story is the power of the human spirit to transcends that cost.
I just got into berserk from RUclips videos and the artistic genius and deep storytelling has me hooked. I wasn’t able to mourn his loss as much as longtime fans but I know the feeling after my favorite music artist passed this year
Awesome video. Just finished Berserk myself. Honestly, vol 41 with the recovery of Casca and the realization about the child, is a sweet place to end even if there are so many loose ends. It's almost perfect the way it is.
I think it's way better to see it finished, even if Miura is not working on it. The cliffhanger of the Moonchild becoming Griffith in the middle of the island shouldn't be a proper ending for such a masterpiece like Berserk.
I remember being depressed for a week straight when it happened, I never felt so sad for a person I didn't know closely. i sat every night to read, theorize and remember him and i still do. While a friend showed me the golden company movies for the first time about a year before Miura died and recommended the old 25 chapter series, I ignored his advice and went straight into the manga finishing it in about 1½ weeks. Going back to it hundreds of time to check small details and zoom in on the big art scenes taking it all in. Miura will always live in my soul, if there's something I will treasure forever is his work and existence. No story has touched me so deeply ever since.
Berk goes insanely hard. Thats how i discovered it, saw a motion comic with guts slicing through shit in a dota 2 video of all things, and thought "damn this is some detailed drawings, character design looks cool as hell too". Didn't ever think that it had actually any plot untill I read it😂. Was very surprised and pleased to find out it was peak, but the first impression really sets the tone for any series at least for me, so for me berk is all about art and that very weird almost lovecraftian atmosphere
He wrote complex and interesting characters with deep emotions and had a beautifully nuanced reflection of subtextual human communication. He literally could NOT have been autistic. Autism is the disease of not knowing what that stuff even is.
@@honaleri incredibly misinformed comment. you have a fundamental misunderstanding of autism as a disability (starting with referring to it as a "disease") and i sincerely hope you can find some more understanding both of the things you choose to speak about as well as the people around you. x
Amazing video like always. Keep it up! I've been a fan of Berserk since 2006 and I've been singing and preaching its greatness from the beginning. Its just one of those stories that you finish and know that its one of the greatest things you can ever read.
Thank you Dylcor. Big time Berserk fan. Learning about the master behind the work was awesome. I'm currently doing my own manga and Muira-san has been a huge inspiration.
You spoke this life of great tragedy Miura had. Besides dying a pretty normal death and not being able to conclude his story I didnt hear anything particularly tragic in your video. He found success early on in his career and was able to ride that all the way to his end. Most creatives dont come close to finding that kind of success with their work.
Considering the history between Miura and Mori, it really can't be left up to anyone else. The fact he told that very same person the entire story can be no better indication (and the fact that Muira did in fact know the conclusion, but the level of work behind it was the only hinderance). He didn't compromise, so you have to give him that.
May the story be under his guidance. Could break out in tears after hearing that heart breaking story & the last red charter in which Guts lost everything. Locking himself in the ship. Now the feeling grows even more intense, since everyone around feld the same way moving on without Miura. Hopefully he gets the afterlife granted that this stunning man deserves.
The thing about Berserk, especially the Golden Age Arc, is that it transcends the medium it was told in completely. The story and tragedy of Guts, Griffith, and Casca is eternal, and is emotionally on the same level as world classics from thousands of years ago. Actual mythmaking is what this man did. He told us the stories we needed to hear to grow up and become better people. The fact that he also painstakingly drew all of it at a master level is just the cherry on top.
I never truly understood the scale of Berserk's influence until his passing. Like you say, the outpour of support and grieving online was not something I'd ever seen, besides perhaps some incredibly influential musicians and the like, but the fact that this was for a MANGAKA, was simply mindblowing. Despite knowing it was a lot of people's no.1 manga, it still felt like it was a very underground thing even among anime fans, but in hindsight it makes sense, I suspect even casual anime fans must know of it.
Thank you for making such a wonderful, well researched and thoughtful video. Kentaro Miura being unable to finish his life's work is definitely a heart-breaking tragedy.
Not only an incredible artist and storyteller, but a genuinely great man that treated his friends and peers with absolute class. Excellent work, this video feels like a professional documentary.
As a kid I taught myself to draw manga with turnip and halftone screens. In middle school I draw my first manga. Miura has always been my inspiration, I was dreaming to become a manga artist in Japan one day. I got a transplant at 15 and my dreams could never be achieved, just like Miura couldn't finish his masterpiece.. Rip legend
the intro song at the beginning of the video at 1:15 is Deacon Jack a true masterpiece, that I was granted the honor of playing, and also i got the opportunity o play one of berserk openings for choral concert truly inspirational
out of all Miura-sensei's tribute video, this one has the PERFECT TITLE. I know this'll be contested, but Berserk is #1 for me in terms of everything. Thank you, Dylcor. You've just earned a sub, brother.
Amazing video almost made me cry! im glad berserk is continuing in the hands of his best friend im sure he won't let him down because in hes mind he one day may reunited with him
When Miura died I actually cried. I never met this legend but Berserk meant so much to me. And thinking about how he would never be able to finish his story by himself made me cry.
Now that Miura died and Berserk is done after so many years of waiting ... i wish Miura wasnt so obsessed with drawing and we had alot of chapters per year. One of the biggest upsets ever
I felt Miura's loss way too personally. It sounds ridiculous to say, but I think it hit me harder than I ever dreamed it could, even as the fanbase continuously "joked" about this coming to pass, because of all the hiatuses. Great video, I am still saddened Miura did not get to finish his work directly, but I think it's in the best hands it could be given the situation.
I hope you continue to make more videos, I’m new to your channel and I’ve watched almost every one of your videos. BERSERK is my favorite manga thus far, but I’ve watched your top ten video, and I can’t wait to read some of those mangas as well. Let’s just say my collection of manga books is growing and fast! As I’m also reading Goblin Slayer right now. Great job Dylcor, I know the channel is gonna grow massively over time!
Rest in peace Kentaro Miura. I just started to watch recently anime of Berserk, both versions and all the movies. And only recently I started to read manga. Man, I am so amazed by his creation. I am speacheless! As a fan of Dragon Ball for more than 15 years, Naruto and few other manga's I am asking myself, how could I not know about Berserk for so many years. Rest in peace Kentaro!
Miura was plagued by bad luck, bad work ethic(sometimes), and also bad judgement and possibly pride. he wanted perfection while also not compromising on anything. which led to his declining health and hiatuses, and eventual death while the Manga is far from being done(well, not very far, but still). at the end of the day, Miura decided that his pride and perfectionism were more important than Berserk itself. some people may think it's reasonable, but im a pretty big denouncer of "pride" and thus criticized Miura for his approach, and eventually to his half-complete legacy.
Thks for the wonderful video. I was pleasantly surprised to learn what Kentarou Miura went through and the hurdles and his relationship with a fellow mangaka. I'm honestly glad I chose to read Berserk and watch the 1997 anime. May you be never forgotten, Miura-san.
I want to take a moment and thank you deeply for this, every video I have come across before this one has been filled with either inconsistent info or just wikipedia dumps, you have clearly done your research and honoured the man's memory.
He's such a patient author. There are many words one could use to describe him but for me, patient is what stands out the most. I'm a hobby writer, I doubt I'll ever write a masterpiece or even finish a full book, but as someone with a little experience trying to write stories, I think my single biggest issue is patience. It's hard to slow down and give your characters and story the time they need to grow. Muira did this beautifully, and is definitely one of my biggest inspirations! He's absolutely a genius. Both his story and his art are unmatched. I also relate so much to Casca and Guts. Their love story, the romance, the trauma, their perseverance, the darkness of their world and their story is all so comforting to me. Not everyone can handle such dark and graphic content, but I'm one of the people who is comforted by it. I wonder what makes us like that. Maybe it's because I'm almost dead inside and it makes me actually feel something the way not many things can do anymore. I definitely think that's at least part of it. Berserk woke something in me that I thought was long dead. A desire to live, to form connections with others, to seek happiness and love and intimacy. To struggle on no matter what 🙂 Also, as a bi, gah damn Guts and Casca are fine 🥵 Imma go to the gym so I can tone tf up, so I guess that's yet another way Muira has inspired me to be better.
To lose Miura then Toriyama not long after is truly the end of the greatest era that anime and manga has ever had. May they rest in peace. Here is to hoping we get to see the ending of Guts' and Casca's story.
I was a fan before it hit the mind of others in pop culture media. My first experience was on the Dreamcast in 1999. Then the anime 2 years later after 1 year the manga came to the states after 25 years i am still fan but it broke my heart when he die. I still hope that berserk keeps going and fans keep on growing we need more love for his work.
How can someone narrate a story so amazingly. Truly incredible. I really love the way you present the narrations. Thank you for sharing this story of legend himself . Rip Kentaro Miura 🪦🕊️
i wish he never died obviously. but the final released panel he worked on was the perfect last one... griffith being there and the quote too... just sadly perfect
At this point, I’m happy that Makoto Yukimura and Naoki Urasawa write relatively short mangas. Yes, VINLAND SAGA has run for a while, but the end is in sight and Yukimura is still young. He also finished PLANETES. I hate that Miura didn’t get to finish BERSERK and Inoue has more or less abandoned VAGABOND. Also concerned that Hara may not finish KINGDOM, but I think he has the whole story outlined.
After Miura's passing I spent an hour or so just listening to Guts theme while crying. Never have I ever cried that much for someone I haven't met, but it felt right doing so. Miura and Berserk will live on forever in our hearts.
Miura wasn't preparing his studio for "the worst," he's said that he wanted to train them so that eventually they could take the reigns of Berserk alongside him, to significantly speed up its production
"nearly unrivaled when it comes to dedication and love for the craft" true, creators like him or Oda who are making the same one manga for dozens of years and dont want to stop are the greatest you can find
@@whitygooseyeah oda has commercial succes but he has the greatest work ethic in the whole industry which makes him thousand times better than the lazy miura
Hey! Thanks for your video! I am reading Berserk for the second time (read it during my teen age). At that time i could not perceive the magnitude of it! A masterpiece (:
I'm a long time fan of Berserk, and I fell in love with the message of hope being found even in the darkest of places. That sometimes, you need to dig yourself out of the hell you found yourself in and find the briefest moments of happiness in the people you manage to find yourself with in the moments of peace you share with them. Hearing about Miura's deep and long lasting friendship with Mori makes me tear up a lot. in some way, it is poetic that Mori can see his best friend's greatest dream down to the end, but also give it his color as well since as Miura stated... they knew each other very well. It might be a different perspective, but for me, it is a comfort to see that it was entrusted to people who Miura knew well, people he taught and guided. They're not amateurs or people that don't know what they're doing. So I'm gonna have faith in their direction, and if it does end up having its own distinctive feel to it... it just makes it that special since it is being done in honor of not just Miura, but for the people that have read the story as well. It makes Berserk even that much more special because it is a passing of a dream from person to person.
Didn't think I'd be crying my eyes out at 8am, but here we are. Man... I stare at my Berserk collection all the time and think about how lucky I am to have lived at the same time as Miura. To get to live Berserk being released, to see the influence it has on things, to have its message constantly played on repeat in my head. It's both inspiring, and painful at the same time. Ugh, I need to watch some magical girl transformations or something...

@@dylcorwhat is this?
It is just truly heartbreaking for a man to put his entire soul and body into making what many people consider a masterpiece, for over 30 years, and pass before seeing it come to an end. It’s a shame we will never see Miura’s ending for berserk, but I can’t help but be happy we will at least see AN ending.
Literally no one else BUT Mori could finish it. And we truly are blessed that he is finishing his lifelong friend’s masterpiece. Personally I think the new chapters are really damn good and I am just so glad we are getting them.
No, he didn’t. What the fuck is everyone on?

It is so badass that Mori is doing it. Like man that is fucking poetic totally apropos
As a silver lining in my personal opinion the final chapter drawn by him works EXTREMELY well as an open ending.
@@chlopaczekhula3524but it still feels like something is missing and it would always be miura's perspective of writing berserk

Thank you masked 🙏seriously appreciate it, been watching your vids since you had like 50k subs. Means a lot that you enjoy what I'm doing.
@@dylcor 🤘🤘
Amazing video like always. Keep it up! I've been a fan of Berserk since 2006 and I've been singing and preaching its greatness from the beginning. Its just one of those stories that you finish and know that its one of the greatest things you can ever read.
Thank you Dylcor. Big time Berserk fan. Learning about the master behind the work was awesome. I'm currently doing my own manga and Muira-san has been a huge inspiration.
You spoke this life of great tragedy Miura had. Besides dying a pretty normal death and not being able to conclude his story I didnt hear anything particularly tragic in your video. He found success early on in his career and was able to ride that all the way to his end. Most creatives dont come close to finding that kind of success with their work.
Honestly sounds like Miura was mainly Griffith and Mori was Guts.
I wonder if Miura finalized an idea on the end of the relationship.
Considering the history between Miura and Mori, it really can't be left up to anyone else. The fact he told that very same person the entire story can be no better indication (and the fact that Muira did in fact know the conclusion, but the level of work behind it was the only hinderance). He didn't compromise, so you have to give him that.
Been waiting on this one, the production quality is crazyyy
Thank you 🙏🙏
Miura’s passing is to this day the only time I cried for someone I had never met. Took me weeks to fully recover. A true legend
🙏🙏
May the story be under his guidance. Could break out in tears after hearing that heart breaking story & the last red charter in which Guts lost everything. Locking himself in the ship. Now the feeling grows even more intense, since everyone around feld the same way moving on without Miura. Hopefully he gets the afterlife granted that this stunning man deserves.
The thing about Berserk, especially the Golden Age Arc, is that it transcends the medium it was told in completely. The story and tragedy of Guts, Griffith, and Casca is eternal, and is emotionally on the same level as world classics from thousands of years ago. Actual mythmaking is what this man did. He told us the stories we needed to hear to grow up and become better people. The fact that he also painstakingly drew all of it at a master level is just the cherry on top.
Excellent video
Thank you for this.
Thank you for watching
Amazing documentary. Thanks a lot!
Thank you too!
I never truly understood the scale of Berserk's influence until his passing. Like you say, the outpour of support and grieving online was not something I'd ever seen, besides perhaps some incredibly influential musicians and the like, but the fact that this was for a MANGAKA, was simply mindblowing. Despite knowing it was a lot of people's no.1 manga, it still felt like it was a very underground thing even among anime fans, but in hindsight it makes sense, I suspect even casual anime fans must know of it.
Looks like we lost another one.
This just hurts, man.
Two legends among men
Thank you for making such a wonderful, well researched and thoughtful video. Kentaro Miura being unable to finish his life's work is definitely a heart-breaking tragedy.
Thank you for watching !
Wow, it’s almost like Miura gave one last gift to Koji, giving him the honor to finish the greatest manga in history, I know he won’t disappoint
i’m just realizing he’s only a year younger than my dad, makes me sad because i still see my dad as a 40 y/o man despite being 59 in april
Not only an incredible artist and storyteller, but a genuinely great man that treated his friends and peers with absolute class.
Excellent work, this video feels like a professional documentary.
He was younger than my parents.
it means you should not read this goat manga until u above the age of 18
Depends he could be above 18 with that statement still standing
It’s always the low sub channels that seem to make the best videos as of late imo !! Let’s change that ! Subbed
Such a great analysis of the story and life of mira's passionate pursuit of art that I shed tears at the end beautiful work ❤
Thank you so much!
welcome to 2024... the year where our lord and savior dylcor will hit 10k subscribers XD
Soon 😉
As a kid I taught myself to draw manga with turnip and halftone screens. In middle school I draw my first manga. Miura has always been my inspiration, I was dreaming to become a manga artist in Japan one day.
I got a transplant at 15 and my dreams could never be achieved, just like Miura couldn't finish his masterpiece..
Rip legend
This video both tought me a lot and had me in tears, thanks so much for this dude ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
the intro song at the beginning of the video at 1:15 is Deacon Jack a true masterpiece, that I was granted the honor of playing, and also i got the opportunity o play one of berserk openings for choral concert truly inspirational
Incredible video man thanks
Thank you for watching !
Hopefully the series will finally finish that’s respectful to his work.
Thank you for this more than necessary episode ❤️
A true goat in the game
He will be respected.
absolutely brother, gone but not forgotten
Literally Miura is a genius of the millennium. No other artist can come close to the work that he inspired.
out of all Miura-sensei's tribute video, this one has the PERFECT TITLE. I know this'll be contested, but Berserk is #1 for me in terms of everything. Thank you, Dylcor. You've just earned a sub, brother.
He's BACK🔥
AND I AINT LEAVIN
Amazing video almost made me cry! im glad berserk is continuing in the hands of his best friend im sure he won't let him down because in hes mind he one day may reunited with him
When Miura died I actually cried. I never met this legend but Berserk meant so much to me. And thinking about how he would never be able to finish his story by himself made me cry.
Bro this greatest investigative journalism. How long it taken for these.👏
Awesome storytelling. Awesome video 💙💙
Now that Miura died and Berserk is done after so many years of waiting ... i wish Miura wasnt so obsessed with drawing and we had alot of chapters per year. One of the biggest upsets ever
I felt Miura's loss way too personally. It sounds ridiculous to say, but I think it hit me harder than I ever dreamed it could, even as the fanbase continuously "joked" about this coming to pass, because of all the hiatuses. Great video, I am still saddened Miura did not get to finish his work directly, but I think it's in the best hands it could be given the situation.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, I feel the same way. Thank you for watching 🙏🙏
The fact that Miura was an assistant for the man who created my 2nd favorite manga series (first being berserk) hajime no ippo gives me chills
I hope you continue to make more videos, I’m new to your channel and I’ve watched almost every one of your videos. BERSERK is my favorite manga thus far, but I’ve watched your top ten video, and I can’t wait to read some of those mangas as well. Let’s just say my collection of manga books is growing and fast! As I’m also reading Goblin Slayer right now. Great job Dylcor, I know the channel is gonna grow massively over time!
Seriously appreciate it man, I'm glad you found my channel. More videos to come, and they're only gonna get better
oh man, its been a while since i read berserk. This video reminded me why I fell in love with the series. Gonna read it again
I definitely cried when he passed. I love Berserk. It means so much to me. Guts struggle got me through so much.
Awesome Video! Keep going with that!
Thanks! Will do!
Rest in peace Kentaro Miura. I just started to watch recently anime of Berserk, both versions and all the movies. And only recently I started to read manga. Man, I am so amazed by his creation. I am speacheless! As a fan of Dragon Ball for more than 15 years, Naruto and few other manga's I am asking myself, how could I not know about Berserk for so many years. Rest in peace Kentaro!
Is it just me or is each vid way better than the last??? 🤔 100k soon??
Miura was plagued by bad luck, bad work ethic(sometimes), and also bad judgement and possibly pride. he wanted perfection while also not compromising on anything. which led to his declining health and hiatuses, and eventual death while the Manga is far from being done(well, not very far, but still).
at the end of the day, Miura decided that his pride and perfectionism were more important than Berserk itself. some people may think it's reasonable, but im a pretty big denouncer of "pride" and thus criticized Miura for his approach, and eventually to his half-complete legacy.
Disrespectfully shut up
Don't front bro. Just cry like the rest of us...
Excellent video man, you just won a subscriber
Much appreciated 🙏🙏🙏
I didn't wake up today expecting to feel sad about this again
Sorry!
Hajime no Ippo represent!
Great Video Dyl.
Love it.
Appreciate it marth 🙏
Devastating loss for the community.
Thks for the wonderful video. I was pleasantly surprised to learn what Kentarou Miura went through and the hurdles and his relationship with a fellow mangaka. I'm honestly glad I chose to read Berserk and watch the 1997 anime. May you be never forgotten, Miura-san.
I want to take a moment and thank you deeply for this, every video I have come across before this one has been filled with either inconsistent info or just wikipedia dumps, you have clearly done your research and honoured the man's memory.
He's such a patient author. There are many words one could use to describe him but for me, patient is what stands out the most. I'm a hobby writer, I doubt I'll ever write a masterpiece or even finish a full book, but as someone with a little experience trying to write stories, I think my single biggest issue is patience. It's hard to slow down and give your characters and story the time they need to grow. Muira did this beautifully, and is definitely one of my biggest inspirations! He's absolutely a genius. Both his story and his art are unmatched.
I also relate so much to Casca and Guts. Their love story, the romance, the trauma, their perseverance, the darkness of their world and their story is all so comforting to me. Not everyone can handle such dark and graphic content, but I'm one of the people who is comforted by it. I wonder what makes us like that. Maybe it's because I'm almost dead inside and it makes me actually feel something the way not many things can do anymore. I definitely think that's at least part of it.
Berserk woke something in me that I thought was long dead. A desire to live, to form connections with others, to seek happiness and love and intimacy. To struggle on no matter what 🙂
Also, as a bi, gah damn Guts and Casca are fine 🥵 Imma go to the gym so I can tone tf up, so I guess that's yet another way Muira has inspired me to be better.
To lose Miura then Toriyama not long after is truly the end of the greatest era that anime and manga has ever had. May they rest in peace.
Here is to hoping we get to see the ending of Guts' and Casca's story.
I was a fan before it hit the mind of others in pop culture media. My first experience was on the Dreamcast in 1999.
Then the anime 2 years later after 1 year the manga came to the states after 25 years i am still fan but it broke my heart when he die.
I still hope that berserk keeps going and fans keep on growing we need more love for his work.
How can someone narrate a story so amazingly. Truly incredible. I really love the way you present the narrations. Thank you for sharing this story of legend himself . Rip Kentaro Miura 🪦🕊️
i wish he never died obviously. but the final released panel he worked on was the perfect last one... griffith being there and the quote too... just sadly perfect
At this point, I’m happy that Makoto Yukimura and Naoki Urasawa write relatively short mangas. Yes, VINLAND SAGA has run for a while, but the end is in sight and Yukimura is still young. He also finished PLANETES.
I hate that Miura didn’t get to finish BERSERK and Inoue has more or less abandoned VAGABOND. Also concerned that Hara may not finish KINGDOM, but I think he has the whole story outlined.
After Miura's passing I spent an hour or so just listening to Guts theme while crying. Never have I ever cried that much for someone I haven't met, but it felt right doing so. Miura and Berserk will live on forever in our hearts.
Miura wasn't preparing his studio for "the worst," he's said that he wanted to train them so that eventually they could take the reigns of Berserk alongside him, to significantly speed up its production
"nearly unrivaled when it comes to dedication and love for the craft" true, creators like him or Oda who are making the same one manga for dozens of years and dont want to stop are the greatest you can find
🙏🙏🙏
Lol you said oda 😂😂 one piece is trash 🗑
oda is commercial succed, miura is artistic insanity. totally different category.
@@celestialarmor695 finally
@@whitygooseyeah oda has commercial succes but he has the greatest work ethic in the whole industry which makes him thousand times better than the lazy miura
Hey! Thanks for your video! I am reading Berserk for the second time (read it during my teen age). At that time i could not perceive the magnitude of it! A masterpiece (:
Common Dylcor banger
W !!
I'm a long time fan of Berserk, and I fell in love with the message of hope being found even in the darkest of places. That sometimes, you need to dig yourself out of the hell you found yourself in and find the briefest moments of happiness in the people you manage to find yourself with in the moments of peace you share with them. Hearing about Miura's deep and long lasting friendship with Mori makes me tear up a lot. in some way, it is poetic that Mori can see his best friend's greatest dream down to the end, but also give it his color as well since as Miura stated... they knew each other very well. It might be a different perspective, but for me, it is a comfort to see that it was entrusted to people who Miura knew well, people he taught and guided. They're not amateurs or people that don't know what they're doing. So I'm gonna have faith in their direction, and if it does end up having its own distinctive feel to it... it just makes it that special since it is being done in honor of not just Miura, but for the people that have read the story as well. It makes Berserk even that much more special because it is a passing of a dream from person to person.
Didn't think I'd be crying my eyes out at 8am, but here we are.
Man... I stare at my Berserk collection all the time and think about how lucky I am to have lived at the same time as Miura. To get to live Berserk being released, to see the influence it has on things, to have its message constantly played on repeat in my head. It's both inspiring, and painful at the same time.
Ugh, I need to watch some magical girl transformations or something...
It's a good thing one of his brains is still around to finish the story
Miura's story is both tragic and beautiful. Amazing video.
I was so upset when I had heard Miura passed away. Had started that series in 2005.
wow ! You're a seriously long time fan
