As someone who has struggled with overcoming addiction, ive always thought of "the beast of darkness" as the perfect analogy for how addiction takes hold in people. It resides in a deep, dark place, always ready to take control and destroy your life to get what it wants. I'm going to get a Berserk inspirered tattoo at some point, to remind myself of my own beast of darkness, and how ive overcome it. This series changed my life for the better, thank you Miura.
@Kintaro Congratulations on overcoming your addiction my mom suffered through addiction herself and me and my siblings helped her through it, it wasn't easy and many years were shed but she's been clean for over ten years now. I say get the tattoo and keep on pushing through.
You’re exactly right, like addiction the beast will feel good in the moment but will hurt you down the road. You’re so right about how it waits always at your weakest moment to attack
Exactly why I have the brand of sacrifice.
😂 dak op
Congrats but what addiction was it?
Love how Miura incorporated so many mythologies in his works from all over. The armor while clearly influenced has definitely become its own thing.
Not gonna lie man, your videos have inspired me to re-read berserk from the beginning and there are so many pages that could be posters with how beautiful they are. Excellent video as usual! Keep it up!
The almightyloli youtube channel has a huge berserk compilation that goes through the whole comic. It's amazing. I watched the movies, but the comic has so much more information and storyline
These Berserk videos wouldn’t be complete without talking about the very armor that’s so awesome it matches the one who wields it. The armor itself was called a “fetish of dwarven design” by Schierke and it houses the memories (or despair?) of the last one who wore it: The Skull Knight.
Skull Knight warned Guts that the more he wore the armor the more the armor would take from him in terms of his senses (taste, sight, touch, etc) plus the shaking that results as well. Another problem is that the wearer could get lost in the fierce flow of Od to the point where you would literally lose yourself in the darkness of the astral world. The end result is blood loss (seeing as the armor bites into the wearer’s flesh and bones) and possible death.
Aside from the side effects, the armor is extremely durable as well as boosts the wearer’s speed and power. That matched with the Dragonslayer sword makes Guts pretty much unstoppable. It would be astonishing when and if we get to see Guts use both against the Five Demons but specifically Griffith.
He’d get destroyed by femto
@@dontworryaboutit5490 Yeah unless Guts gets a few power ups or something else... He cannot match Griffen. His team cannot - unless Moon Light Child does something wild.
It would be cool if the dwarves? Who made the armor upgraded it. Could start with it actually protecting him instead of just basically doing reconstructive surgery on his bones!
I don't understand or even know if it actually heals/mends his bones or just sets them in place. Or acts as scaffolding... Or as an exoskeleton. You can put broken bones back into place all you want but without them being actually mended it is useless.
Sorry for the tangent. Femto is a god who can manipulate space and has God knows what other powers.
I forsee a betrayal and Griffin being powdered down - enough for Guts to fight him.
I thought it didn't boost anything but just allowed you to use your maximum potential strength and keep fighting till you die.
@@dianapennepacker6854I feel like it’s more like outing your bones back in place and than acting as temporary muscles
Good job keeping this narrator on the Berserk videos. He has the best voice out of everyone, and it matches a franchise like Berserk
The dude who does it has own RUclips channel where talks on comic books too.
@@doubletap6818 What's the name of this channel?
@@CoreythGreat it’s “comics explained”. I’m just going off voice similarities I could be wrong but if I am the other guy is just as good and informative.
@@doubletap6818 Nah, this guy's name is supposedly Corey
The berserker armor is a great example of what miura meant when he said berserk is a thousand year story; he does an amazing job writing characters and their back stories that everyone is very fleshed out and something like the berserker armor and dragon slayer don’t feel like plot armor but well earned weapons by guts
Well put!
He was just mentioning that the story follows a 1000 year cycle, as evidenced by Void and his old demon hand pals
I have a strange feeling that either guts is going to be some kind of descendent of skull knight and Griffith is a descendent of skull knights lover, or causality is going to say this same cycle will always repeat because skull nights lover looks wayyyy too much like Griffith to be nothing
While Guts is swinging at Griffith on Elfhelm and fails to damage him, except for cutting a single strand of hair. It seems like a call back to their duel when Guts left the Band of the Hawk where after he broke his sword, he cut a single strand of hair before stopping his sword right above Griffith's Shoulder.
Not entirely sure if it was meant to be some sort of call back or reference, but it could be that Griffith was toying with Guts to the point that all he would allow guts to do was to cut a single strand of his hair again.
Or perhaps, it could be a foreshadowing of what is to come: Guts would be able to fight Griffith but at the last seconds, hesitates (perhaps) because of Falcon of Lights vessel being Guts son ie: cutting a single strand of hair
Fun fact berserker we're often high on amanita muscaria aka fly agaric aka Christmas presents aka Mario mushrooms.
One of the symptoms of "overdose" is intense salivation to the point of looking like a rabid animal.
Fun fact on real-life Berserkers from Scandinavia. The reason for this trance like state, foaming at the mouth, borderline insane behaviour, was because right before a big battle they would get sky-high on psychedelic mushrooms. Imagine that, a ultra violent hyped up murder machine off his balls on acid. Yeah, no shit they were scary.
MV from the first day you guys are making amazing video and covering super interesting topics. You all are awesome.
Yes, I've been waiting for this one for awhile now
Poor Guts. I was legit sad when I saw how frail he looked outside of the armor. It's a sad analogy for Dr. Kentaro Miura's failing heart due to his obsession with pushing forward the completion of Berserk. Fame was Miura's life draining armor. RIP
How... How did the Magna kill him quicker? I don't understand the comparison... Man was in poor health sadly. I'm terminally ill myself unless I get a liver and kidney transplant... Yet writing a Magna would not be especially hard on my heart.
Anyway I am not a Magna fan. Yet Berserk 1997 got me into the lore and I just recently found out he passed. Such a shame too - he truly built a great story with complex themes. RIP.
@@dianapennepacker6854stress can kill people even quicker
11:20 That's when all the information that about the armor starts
😂😂😂😂😂
Ï love these videos thank you dude
Not going to lie I was a bit surprised when the armor didn't activate when guts saw Griffith in recent chapters.... But I do agree with Marvelous Videos on one point; I think Rickert will be very important to Griffiths downfall as he was the only one post rebirth to lay a literal hand on Griffith. Since dragonslayer could only touch a single hair on his head, that makes that slap very important!
I think Griffith has to be consciously aware to use his god like abilities. Griffith in his ego tripping arrogance couldn’t even fathom rickert denying him let alone striking him. Which I think will lead to Griffiths eventual downfall is because again he thinks himself too great to fail.
Why is it that though? Is he an astral being?
The Armour doesn’t heal Guts it just “stitches” him up .
Yeah it quite literally SNAPS his limbs back into place and makes really any form of pain illusionary.
Literally pierces the skin and keeps the bones in place and administers morphine and bath salts at the same time 😂
In the research that I did a couple of years ago I found that there's actually a 3rd class of Berserkers who wore boars heads instead of wolves or bears. Also berserker can mean either bear shirt or skin. I generally prefer the term skin because shirt just sounds odd to me & evokes a vastly different imagery lol.
I just want a decent anime adaptation
Skull knights lover looks like Griffith. Same hair similar face. It's like Griffith in past was her or from her bloodline.
I never miss a video
I thought the black "wolf" was actually a black dog. Because guts is a "mad dog" he's been compared to a rabid dog by casca before so I figured it was foreshadowing to his beast of darkness.
I remember in a Documentary which coincides with the taking of drugs before battle and country to popular belief they where lean tall men and the Tribes where mainly farmers....
I love the mentioned of Randy Orton lol
He heard voices...
I agree ❤!
0:57 as far as i know it was not in his head the eclipse was first then i think his friend that is currently continuing his manga had the idea and told him about it not fully sure because i heard it a while back.
I love this anime and manga hoping this will made into a movie or tv series like game of thrones
“On Sight Policy” I’m putting that shit on a t-shirt!!!
Nice
When guts sees an apostol its on site 😂
Btw I like the others who do Berserk but only YOU should do the Berserk videos
im not gonna lie, guts has like 1 or 2 more full uses out of that armor before it kills him
AND, PLEEEEASE don’t start at the beginning again.
If there’s gonna be a remake, start at The Conviction Arc.
The Vikings fight like Berserkers because they were high on shrooms just a little piece of history for you today
Imagine if they took pcp!
@@ryukomatoi592 imagine they did pcp ...with Viagra lol
Man showing off the raider from for honor is the shit. Let's go Vikings!!!!
I wonder if Grunbeld kept any remnants of that wound Guts gave him in his human form?
Guts needs to take at least 1 or 2 of the dozen AttUp runes from berserk armor and replace them with HpRegen ones :)
I’ve heard of the Einherjar.
Its a shame what they did to Rock Lee he should have become an end game taijutsu master like guy sensai. Fifth Hokage was like this homey don't need to be no ninja he gon die out here.
Induced mania is the way of the berserker, if they couldn't come back they would tear all of the muscles in their bodies from the bone and die on the field.
Guts need to eat Puck and get permanent regen so he can rip and tear.
How terrifying would it be if Skull Knight I'd Guts from an alternate reality and this is a self fulfilling prophecy!
I will have to re-read the manga. I thought the armor didn't grant strength, but allowed the wearer to continue battling despite the injuries on the body.
28:05 dayum chill there, no need to be violent irl too XD
Could Nosferatu Zodd be Guts? If repeating timelines are a thing… maybe a previous incarnation of Guts
How does Randy Orton able to dominate so much? I've lost hours of sleep wondering this fact....
I was wondering where I left that.
The Vikings and Aztec had a lot in common.
Berserker soul from yugi oh. IYKYK
Imagine Beserk crossing over with Ronin Warriors 😮😮😮😮
The Berserker Armor is like the Terminator the magicians created to deal with the Apostles. Only problem is, it's a twin edged weapon.
I’d like a dark souls boss of guts in beresker armor, heck all the demons too.
There already was one. Knight Artorias in the Artorias Of The Abyss DLC for Dark Souls. The Taurus Demon is basically Zodd.
Why did the dwarves make the armor to begin with? Maybe I missed it in the video
They were asked to make it by Skull Knight
At first it wasn't so bad, but it was modified and that's when it became a problem
3:25 some vikings would trip on shrooms in battle. They would imitate the feral of a bear or a wolf which would make them go berserk. Oh wait your bringing it up 😂😂
Berserker does not mean bear shirt more likely means champion especially if youre talking about viking berserkir
Originals berserkers were flying on mushrooms, look it up.
But can it reproduce?
I killed a Shura once Sekiro
Look up the berserker mushroom
Go-dot?
I love berserk so much and I’m so starved for content that I want a video on absolutely every character, weapon, person, even that stupid ass Grundbeld story. When’s Grundbeld?
Hello
why the annoying music in the background?
Many of us have beast of darkness within. Unless we face it and defeat it can and will consume us just to gain what it wishes to take even by force. There is easy way (much dangerous) and hard way (safe way) to face what is within. As long as you hold to something or someone very dear to your life monster within will stay at bay and wait. While waits face it and defeat it.
This woman with the mark looks just like slan even the hair
29:13
Gutts is most likely gonna have to kill Casca, as long as a demon doesn't do it Griffith will remain incomplete, in doing so Gutts will follow the Skull Knight and adorn the Berserk armor to its most powerful and die thus becoming the "BERSERKER" Gutts using his behlet can sacrifice Casca to finally end Griffith, his son, his love and himself. Lol just speculation
snake baron and his goons
Ain't causality a bitch. Lol
Omg bye after 5 min
Did you just bring up wwe as an example of insae fighting?
I always think of the berserker orcs from LOTR
As a gay man the term bear cult is not strange to me whatsoever. 😂
I don’t wanna be the guy to shoot this down in anyway but… lol. A berserker rage is nothing more then an adrenaline induced fit of anger. Which is channeled correctly. Such as people who would say “I get so angry I black out” they don’t actually black out, it’s that the endorphins consume all rationality until their body feels they’re no longer in danger.
You know how a bodybuilder yells and slaps themself in the face to get angry, which then makes them stronger? That’s what a berserker rage is. But sustained by the aggressive activity that’s happening. Yes you could use stimulants, look at people who use cocaine and their fits of anger. But you can very easily learn to channel this adrenaline naturally. Which would be passive nature to a people who roamed the land with the direct mission to slaughter everyday of their lives.
The berserker armor within guts, is entirely different and is based on dark magic. It was crafted mystically to draw on the darkness within the user. The longer the user wears the armor, the longer it eats away at their sanity/humanity. Until the user becomes an inorganic being capable of feeling no emotion. Trading mentality for physicality. Which is what happened to skull knight. Skull Knight is the representation of guts after the process is complete. Before becoming a necro being. Skull knight once tried to stop the godhand, but failed. Then became the neutral force within the universe that he is.
Which is exactly why it’s depicted that guts is to be Skull knight’s protege. The berserker armor takes the shape of the wearer’s inner demon. Which within guts, it’s depicted that his inner demon is a wolf dog. Which is exactly why the armor takes shape of a wolf dog. We never got to see guts activate his egg, but it would’ve been that of a demon wolf. The reason Zodd is essentially a neutral force to guts after a certain point, is because guts was meant to walk that same path. Guts would still have retained his mentality, but used the power that he hated so much. The power of a demon, to stop the godhand.
We all know otherwise there is no other way possible he would’ve closed the gap to even the lesser godhand.
The writing was meant for guts to use the berserker armor as a powerup, until the time came for his egg to activate. In which he’d of no longer needed the armor. It’s never stated, ever, that the egg is of malice. It’s stated that they choose people, whom in their darkest moment, are bound to trade humanity for power. In which gut’s would’ve did so, because the egg is absolute within the verse. Taking the form of a demon dog.
My personal opinion, (take it as a spoiler) i have a bad feeling Slan might betrayed the god hand and help guts on his path of revenged again
I cringe so hard every time you call him "Miura-Sensei". Eugh.
Just let him be bro
Really you "cringe so hard"? Did your 0 views RDR2 live stream make you cringe as bad too? 🤭
Look this is from Wikipedia:
Sensei, also known as Seonsaeng, Tiên sinh or Hsien sheng/Xiansheng (corresponding to Chinese characters 先生), is an East Asian honorific term shared in Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and Chinese; it is literally translated as "person born before another" or "one who comes before". In general usage, it is used, with proper form, after a person's name and means "teacher". The word is also used as a title to refer to or address other professionals or people of authority, such as clergy, accountants, lawyers, physicians and politicians or to show respect to someone who has achieved a certain level of mastery in an art form or some other skill, e.g., accomplished novelists, musicians, artists and martial artists.
Really pay attention to that last sentence.
The berserkers sound like they have rabies
First
Berserkers are myth. Human beings have a tendency to make things sound more than what they really were.
No way 😢
