that quote by Nietzsche reminded of Rudolf Steiner and his thoughts on those he called "the Soulless Ones".
steiner wrote an incredible book titled "The Philosophy of freedom" wich i highly recommend.
surf shark wants to hide misinformation from you, and flag websites with lebels.
@@EpsilonNought damn really? Should I get mullvad? I heard it was good or is there a better option somewhere else?
I'd actually love to see you doing a Berserk retrospective/special or something
There's no guarantee the world you wake up in each day is the same one you went to sleep in. Not even your own memories can be trusted because misremembering things is possible. So take solace in the hope that you might one day wake back up in the original timeline where none of this stuff happened. This offshoot has gotten dark.
"this manga is so sexist towards women, it has no deep meaning and no respect for women!"
hey remember when Guts got raped as a child, then was afraid of physical contact, and when being intimate with Casca, he was genuenly scared, so Casca showed true care and love towards him?
Yep, they never read the Manga and just want to start some outrage or "controversy".
Woke crowd doesn't believe male rape victims count. They find it sexy/funny and the victims at fault, should've been stronger.
Terrible people have terrible positions.
@@stevekramerf242 truth
Damn dats tuff
@Dan the Axolotl I know! Right?
Somehow you think there'll be a rock bottom but then they start digging to find new lows.
Weird how Twitter can collectively "discover" something. It's almost as if they're a cult-like hive mind and not a group of individuals with their own beliefs, experiences, and interests.
They are. They are drones
@@midnightgreen8319 You know, I'm not a solipsist. I don't think some people are born empty of souls or consciousness. However, I do believe some people willingly surrender their souls and consciousness, becoming hollow and mindless as they defer their free will and morality to a tyrant or mob. NPCs are not born that way. They become that way because they give up on responsibility for their own lives and actions. It's easier to be a puppet of a demon than a being with self determination.
@@TheGreenKnight500 It's not even that deep. Outrage is very in fashion today. I would say about 80% of the world consists of dullards and willful idiots. They don't understand nuance or anything high minded. They are drones.
They will praise retarded ass songs like WAP but, God forbid a dark tragedy exist in Manga. It isnt a fantasy, your supposed to be upset about it, but you keep reading to watch Guts overcome his tragedy
they are like aliens from Independence day
man, if the existence of a manga that nobody is forcing you to read ruins your day, you have not experienced enough problems in your life 💀
Yup. They are rich spoiled brats who never matured past the age of 2. I've known 3 year olds that were more mature than these people.
Hehe boi
Same pfp
real
Yeah their life is really pitiful
Man, I really wish I could be one of those people. To have so few problems, issues, and *struggles* that I can so easily let a group dynamic completely influence my way of seeing a thing that I have not even looked into. I envy that ignorance dude. Just the SIMPLICITY of mind. I miss a time when things seemed so simple. But that's why Berserk affected me so deeply after all. Probably the same with you
I will never understand reading something in categories "gore", "horror" and "tragedy" and being mad that it has tragic stories with gore.
Omg yes, you resumed it perfectly
Agreed. I’m a big horror guy, and I get so much shit when I say that I enjoy certain horror writers that have a gore-focused storytelling (like slashers, for example). Most “fans” of the genre are normies that read about the same amount of horror as they watch-which is usually just what they’ve heard about before, like lame Stephen King bullshit.
They're upset that it exists at all.
How dare they make a manga that's not like my favourite Boyfriends webcomic 😠
if you only look for horror whether its phycological or physical you will only find horror, and these wet blankets would complain into the void in hope of someone listening when they would see it.
The scene of Guts getting assaulted is more or less REQUIRED in the books, because Guts would never in a million years explain to ANYBODY why he is so vehemently against physical contact... That's what makes him and Casca embracing such a huge deal... She could just tell he'd been through similar stuff she went through as a child... They were both beyond damaged people, but somehow, they found one night of happiness in such a cruel ass world... That's Guts' story... He's convinced there's no happiness in the world, finds it, and it's RIPPED FROM HIM... That's his rage...
It's relatable...
Yea, it was the real heroes journey. You felt his rage. You wanted him to succeed because you wanna succeed.
Keep on fellow Strugglers.
Ye
Oh so we'll articulated berserk fans are best fan base ever!
I understood the sentence was over by the first dot.
I wish they understood that "entertainment" doesn't just mean "makes me smile and laugh". Horror is entertainment. Dramas are entertainment. There's more that a person can feel besides a straight dopamine hit.
They never will. They are completely incapable of nuanced thought.
Well, Twitter users are dopamine addicts so nit surprising they'll never understand.
@@balsamon69 yup, the problem inthis day and age is that people only wants the fun part but nothing else.
@@TerribleScroll Forgetting about the fact that fun cannot exist without pain...
@@balsamon69 yup thats like the whole premise of greek theater, that comedy and tragedy are two faces of the same coin
I'm a woman who was sexually assaulted, and for me, Berserk provided me a lot of catharsis and helps me want to move forward and not let my trauma define me as a person. So I don't think it's disrespectful for SA victims at all, I think it's sympathetic and uplifting towards them.
Glad you can press forward and also appreciate the berserk world!
Awesome bro. Keep going
Exactly Griffith did nothing wrong
@@CaIypso5150 Woah, nothing?....😅 oh wait...memes
Keep strugglin
Funfact: Vlad the impaler got so good at impaling people that he had them impaled through their anus to the mouth and they were still alive whilst being impaled that way. Way worse than what berserk shows sometimes.
Imagine him doing that as like a fucked-up party trick. Like he impales one of his dudes through his ass and the dude just does whacky-ass shit to entertain everyone at the feast.
I miss one minute ago when I didn’t know this existed
@@kira_does_stuffme too gang me too
The stake was also oiled and the impaled's backdoor was stretched open beforehand as well to aid with the process
no bc thats actually impressive??? like wow thats pretty good
The moment they called Berserk misogynistic, that's how we found out those lunatics haven't read the whole story of Berserk at all.
haven't read 1 tome.
tweeter is just the echo of dying brain begging for attention anyway.
Berzerk is the embodiement of selfless abandon, the unlogical choice you make for love. Its everything that is right with manhood. And a grim depiction of what life is. And the best fucking manga ever. I discovered Berzerk in my high school days, in the 90's.
Yeah, i was a real nerd before it was cool. We use to buy out anime from chs copy in the chinewe market.
The real good old days. We had to go to library and demand they order mangas. It was great.
@@celuiquipeut6527 Got intro'd into the 90's anime when me and best friend became SUPER WEEBs. we were Mainlining One Piece Fan Subs. Pre Going Merry. Was sooo damn good, that opening themesong did not prepare me adequately lol.
@@bulbafett5001 yeah yeah!! Nice t9 meet another real one! The kids today really dont understand how much we suffered in order for this cultyre to not only be cool, but mainstream. \m/
Bold of you to assume the raging bigots on Twitter has the attention span to learn about anything in depth.
Yet further evidence of why gatekeeping is essential.
Exactly
Definitely. This last decade has proven it's a necessary practice
yep. Theyve already breached Souls games, unfortunately.
Gatekeeping is good
It's pretty much impossible to disagree with that. Almost everything I used to enjoy is ruined nowadays. With a few exceptions. By people who don't even consume the type of media they force their bullshit on. But gatekeeping bad I guess. Time to jump out the window.
Gatekeep well or expect to be thrown from the Ramparts.
I just love how Twitter people thinks that the world really cares about them, like they're the main character of this world.
“People” they aren’t sentient, I think god created them just because he had to reach some kind of deadline
Took the words right outta my mouth. Those subhumans are self-centered and narcissistic as fuck.
I seriously hate it when people misinterpret having dark themes in a fictional story for the writer condoning the actions depicted in them. I have never read Berserk, but something very similar happened with my favorite series, AoT. It's a real shame that people look this hard for problems in good fiction, they miss out on some of the best stories the world has to offer.
I like the Persona games (I'm sorry). But thats like saying P4 is pro serial murder or P5 is pro sexsual assualt. What ever happened to complex thought?
Oh wait Twitter happened...
It's people who are used to having their ideological collective have complete monopolistic control over almost every piece of art and entertainment, being confronted by a piece of art, one of excellent quality btw, being completely free of those reigns, and as such, spitting in such an "ideologies'" face. They dont get to have their way with anime and manga.
Wait til they find out about Junji Ito. XD
The fact that the manga has been around since the 80s and it took until now for them to get offended shows how little it actually affected their lives.
Yes, they probably agree with you about that
This comment needs like 10,000,000 more likes
Kids at my school actually like berserk,it started with this kids who played ds3 and he a couple of friends who did too but once elden ring came out it spread like wild fire in the school, it took a hold on everybody's imagination there, alot of kids in my art class even started modeling there art style after it too.
@@magnacrushersart572 you sir are lucky to have a class like that
@@magnacrushersart572 that’s the fault of the careless parents
After all I’m pretty sure the game is not for kids.
Never thought they'd finally stumble upon, and I don't say this lightly, one of the most influential Mangas in history that had a great deal to do with defining dark fantasy as a genre.
Yep, them coming across Berserk of all things was just unseen.
This and Devilman are both GOAT and really shaped the dark fiction in a nutshell.
@@amirjamil1555 and legend of of the overfiend. Or is that too much pron?

Not just dark fantasy, but outside of the akria motorcycle slide.... Berserk.
Did no one on Twitter say anything about Casca? I mean she is basically one of the most bad ass fictional women in manga period.

"I'm all for freedom of expression... except for things I think is offensive. Those things needs to be censored because the author is a bigot!" -Everyone on Twitter.
Some people don’t belong in creative spaces. Everyone with these garbage takes on Miura’s work need to keep their greasy fingers away from any intellectual property.
They find everything offensive. 😄
I swear nobody spoke out when 50 shades was all over social media, because obviously they didn't have a problem with a man using a woman as a sex slave, because he's attractive and rich, whilst totally ignoring the fact he was manipulative, controlling and took advantage of a submissive woman to get what he wanted all the time. Also, he has a helicopter. Christian Grey was the bad guy in those stupid books/movies and these same people enjoyed them.
"I'm all for freedom of expression... except for people the media tell me are bad. These people must be put in jail and/or removed from power and I dislike them because the TV told me to !"
The day you change what's being told on TV, they'll do a complete 180
“You got all the freedom of expression you want, as long as it expresses our personal and very specific beliefs”
That oddly sounds like Jeremy from Thequartering
I remember TheAlmightyLoli did a community post showing these degenerates saying Kentaro deserved to die, upon them reading Gut's SA. The sheer amount of murderous rage I felt when reading those words has rarely been felt; but upon remembering these worthless fools will be forgotten, while dear Kentaro will go on in history for millenia always calms me down.
@Bucksy Funk you guys to, I love kentaro, and the almighty loli. Berserk is fantastic
Thankfully the internet comes down hard on people who say that kind of crap. When the Vocaloid producer Wowaka passed away, if you were a vocaloid fan and not mourning, the entire community would verbally curb stomp you.
I literally just discovered his channel today mere hours before Gundam put this video out lol Just finished watching his War of the Millenium Falcon Arc (Act 1). I'm an instant fan. What I will say to the OP here is to make sure to take the spirit of Kentaro's work to heart. Rage and anger is not the way. (lol at least I'm pretty sure that's at least an aspect of his work, I'm only a handful of volumes deep into this series. I'm actually just happy that they haven't canceled Dark Horse for printing them. I suspect they're too profitable to be canceled, but still.)
Just remember, these are the people who would use a behelit if given the chance, sacrificing friends and family (assuming they got any) to get twitter clout. They’re not worth it.
Twitter yet again showing how much of a snowflake they really are
As a 17-year-old person, I find these grown-out "adults" who cry over drawings from years ago just pathethic
im 15, and *I* find this pathetic too, why do people like these have to spit on a dead mans grave because he drew something that was "dark fantasy"?
@@D.A.F.O because they are NPCs looking for any scrap of clout, so they spend all day online, looking for anything that might make them the next Anita Sarkeesian. Say what you want about that woman, but even she has had more time of relevance that these ankle-biters will see in ANY lifetime. That why it could be beserk or even just that heavily sterilized Japanese McDonalds commercial, if it bleeds, they REEEEEEEEE.
Ok redditor
@@melu0odude I dunno, Berserk helped me through a ton of stress from my parents not agreeing and it was just a huge mess and they were almost going to court to get custody and all that, nasty stuff made me feel like shit and sick for a good few months. Berserk helped. It gave an outlet for all the hate and sadness I was feeling and it just hit all the right spots needed. It gave me something to look forward to, to aspire to get back up and keep fighting, it’s also just really good in general
I just sounded like a Redditor I know, but I swear all I use is RUclips and very rarely to talk to friends Discord. Read Berserk, some of the best panels I’ve ever seen
@@melu0omeaningless insult
I will never forgive the Twitter user who said Miura deserved to die because Berserk was so violent
which one lol
@@ItsAGundam hell probably multiple at this point lmao
wait till they discover attack on titan and goblin slayer they will loose there collective minds
@@trynaka1421 discovers that one scene from blood c 🗿
@@trynaka1421 They already had a conniption fit over Goblin Slayer...this happened around the same time as the pansy who writes Sword Art edited the scene in Alicization...which led to the whole Shield Hero controversy which THEN led to Shield Hero being one of the most popular anime of the year...which was followed by Uzaki-chan. Basically if Twitter spergs about something from Japan it's probably super worth.
Kentaro Miura was legit just built different, not only did he draw a magnum opus on every single panel he also wrote more complex women characters than what majority of feminist agenda writers are capable of.
Fr people will see a cookie cutter Mary Sue and act like they are the most complex character to exist. Meanwhile casca’s entire character arc is more enticing and well thought out than the majority of entire novels.
And he managed to make some Twitter dwelling losers cry even after dying, the ABSOLUTE GOAT.
Berserk women: as real and fallible as any of the other characters
Twitter people: wAhMeN!!!! reeeeeee
@Sonic Hedgehog I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. Just because they are feminists doesn't mean we should discredit all of their work, just majority of it.
Edit:
Bruh he deleted his comment.
Don't know what's next for Berserk. Either It would fall from popularity or get the right treatment it needs, a proper Anime adaptation.
Alternative title for this vid: twitter discovers berserk and goes berserk
lol nice one, that's actually pretty good.
I got a better one, twitter discovers ber and goes serk.
@@ramk2321 Twitter discovers nuts.
And goes beserking time.
"Medieval times wasn't like this." that's the most stupid thing I've ever heard.🤣 On a real note, berserk is literally like real life, especially comparing it to history, when it comes to levels of brutality but with a fantasy twist.
Tbh without knowing what scene they are talking about
They are right. Medieval had no apostles and witches
If they talk about the rape.. i would say that medieval was probably worse
Especially the chapters with the religious cult where they burn heritics every time they exhale.
I really like this recent trend of normies complaining about fiction not being realistic, like, that's the entire point?
Whenever twitter sees an anime (female) character with exaggerated proportions or a revealing outfit they complain about it not being realistic like if it wasn't a cartoon to begin with
In a technical sense, Berserk is actually unrealistically shitty to live in compared to real medieval life. That's not a writing problem however.
The fact that it is so shit to live through in Fantasia is a literal plot point that is so intrinsic to the story that Miura literally omitted why it is like that for the sake of spoilers.
@@travisoliver6741 If we exclude the monsters and all supernatural, the worst thing in the story is the religious nuts burning witches. It's fairly realistic. As far as the monsters go, I think the idea of evil/god explains all.
It really makes me sad when series can't end properly, whether by cancellation or author deaths, but it warms my heart when they are kept alive by tributes, fan appreciation, and ignorant wannabe backlash.
From what i heard he left a manuscript with main story points to guys who were working with/for him and they will continue his work. Supposedly it took so long to publish continuation for berserk because Kentaro was very perfectionist with his illustrations and would redo them often if he felt dissatisfied. Take it with a grain of salt, i am only repeating what i read. But i am almost 100% sure the story will continue down the path it was going to go.
if they're gonna end berserk abruptly, they should do the same thing how Vagabond ended, tell the reader of all the things that happened and then a reason for why the author isn't going to continue writing the series (in a plot sort of way) and then giving the characters a proper send off.
it sounds bad and lazy but if you've read why Inoue didn't end Vagabond, you'd understand him and actually appreciate how he ended the series.
Tell me about it
It’s my ever growing fear for Hajime no Ippo and One Piece
I like the way the last chapter ends. Given the circumstances it could've felt much more abrupt and empty but it got one last little twist moment right before the end and leaves it on a what if interpretation
@@miraclefool9244 Hey, now hajime no ippo is supposedly getting continued in anime. Then if it doesn’t end it can be a joke for everybody to share in. I’m still happy though, the anime is well done.
This… makes me genuinely sad. Miura poured his literal life into the manga, as his death was caused by complications from a medical condition caused by him overworking. And to hear all these people, pick on one of the story’s darker moments to show how *monstrous* and inhumane an actual demon is… it hurts. Because that’s not what Berserk is about. Berserk is about even when you’re at your absolute lowest, you can keep going on. You can make things better.
Guts is someone who against all odds struggles and thrashes against the life dealt to him, and being honest? He achieved the impossible because he never gave up, even when he didn’t even know himself why he did. And the art, and the expressions paint such a vivid story…
I understand not everyone can stomach the gore or the nudity. But to discredit a man’s life work and to say he should burn in hell… how shallow and insensitive can you be?
Let's just take comfort in the knowledge that their words(which are actually literal hate speech) will just echo around in Twitter and fade into irrelevance meanwhile Miura's life's work will transcend his generation and will forever be hailed as one of the best works of art of all time.
@@kamina9901 That had already happened. :)
I think we are treating these fucking """"people"""" with kids gloves. They need to be hit back with atleast half of the shit they do to others, including the doxxing.
That's it the so low the don't want people to better them self the want to drag others down in to shit. Just like crabs pulling down a escaping crab back in the bucket
that's always been the thing though
like, i know what's in A Serbian Film and i know i don't want to watch it, but that doesn't mean it shouldn’t exist, or that i fear for my life just because someone might watch it
all of this is the same energy that conservative christians had in the 90s when marilyn manson's music was the root of ALL evil and a threat to life as we know it
i think a large part of it is the fact that we don't care about history anymore; not recent history but even more so older history. we generally know nothing of the world, and especially nothing of the world as it was hundreds to thousands of years ago. we've goose-stepped ourselves into the perception that reality has always been as it is right NOW, and while i'm all for 'living in the Now', that is not what that phrase means. lol
thankfully the reality is, history doesn't remember anyone who doesn't remember it; these people are chaff in the wind, destined to be left behind and forgotten, unless they have a 'wake up' moment and realize they've been willfully stunting their growth as humans. either way, we walk on with or without them
Defend Berserk at all costs
Ya goddamn right
1. Berserk is the greatest manga out there no cap

Remember twitter is fine with Superman getting r***d.
Berserk is a timeless classic and the fact that it’s been around for decades now and ppl are just now seeing the kinds of issues it tackles and being triggered by that shows how far gone our society has become. This is how bored ppl are in 2022.

Messing with LOTR and Berserk fanbase? They don't know what kind of forces they're angerying...
It's time for China to Invade this god forsaken Country
I read comics in the early 80s that would ruin these people. And the leftists of the time were all for it because they were edgy and wanted to stick it to the man. Now they are the man and it makes everything they say insane
Society is plagued with weakness and the celebration of weakness.
I never realized how much berserk meant to me until I met someone in a berserker armor cosplay at NYCC. I was genuinely overjoyed to see it and I had a really good conversation with him and saw how much we had in common and holy shit I love this series
As a geezer, berserk was one of the few mangas I ever really got into. Good luck f*cking with that fanbase hahaha
Just got into reading the manga and watching the 1900 anime fucking God like the anime copies the manga 1:1 only go to chapter 60 something yea giving what guts been through especially after his platoon was killed by demons and his girl violated by hawk I'd say yes he's gonna have a mental breakdown (just remember caska was pregnant with which i believe to be guts child but was turned into a demon fetus after hawks raped her and now follow guts around. Even which after caska is left mentality broken and she's litterateur just a husk)
Messing with LOTR and Berserk fanbase? They don't know what kind of forces they're angerying...
Berserk was the first manga I saw have a proper anime adaptation. Albeit it encompassed only one arc within the manga, but it knocked it out of the water (best soundtrack as well).
Twitter is a bunch of broke adolescents. Berserk fanbase is comprised mostly of working adults. It's easy to see who's got more buying power, and can actually support their hobby instead of complaining on the internet about things they either won't or can't buy.
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 Not to say Berserk doesn't deserve the same level of energy, but LOTR has been around for a LOT longer, and I loved seeing the backlash against the woke Amazon show. Epic
Ah yes. I always love it when people criticize any form of media they won't consume anyway. Because they don't like it. Which is fine. To each their own. But don't try to force your world view on something you are not planning on consuming anyway.
Thats why cancel culture is such a problem vs boycotts. A boycott says "I won't consume your product" while cancel culture says "no one else is allowed to consume your product"
The same people that will screech at you about Aloy being ugly; will scream at you for telling them that Elden ring wasn’t made for them.
No one cares about what some brightly colored haired individuals on twitter have to say. The Japan as a whole and most humans with correct amount of chromosomes know muira was a legend and berserk is probably the most influential mangas in history.
@@out_of_orbit1968 And that's were you wrong. Like objectively wrong. The east doesn't care about some weirdos on Twitter. The west does. Maybe you missed it but most western media is dogshit now. Few exceptions but overall must high value productions are now "pandering" the game, or movie, or whatever. My original comment was not meant for just Berserk. This was an umbrella statement for basically every piece if media. You must live under a rock. Which is located on the moon
And that same Western media is imploding and eating itself and its hilarious to watch.
That's why I hate Twitter.. they are sensitive and ruin everything with their ideals. I hope they don't discover such legendary works anymore.
I remember I introduced my ex to Berserk and she became completely obsessed with it. Watched all the anime adaptations, bought and read the entire manga twice, and even had some figures. One day she goes on Twitter, sees people talking about Miura and how he's "misogynistic and glorifies rape/violence toward women". I try to explain to her that the violence and trauma inflicted in the story is the point and you can't just overlook the context of the events that unfold and it started a fight because she thought I was defending misogyny. 😂 Twitter is THE place you go to be brainwashed, can't have shit on Twitter.
From being obsessed with it and then going a total 180 after reading random people opinions on it 💀💀
God saved you from her my guy
I hope you left her. I certainly would have.
I love how the cult of woke preach about being so accepting of everyone except for those who make works of art not meant for them. The fact that they are saying that they are GLAD Kentaro Miura died is absolutely disgusting and toddler levels of behavior.
Wtf I will watch this video when I'm home.
I wanted to punch them all directly in their nose when I heard them say that about Miura
Their literally a bunch of hypocrites
Falling for a fake, manufactured outrage that didn’t happen like the one Gundam made is also toddler levels of behavior.
Please. Think for yourself, bigot.
I think that nothing, not even Berserk is immune to criticism, but if you can't view something through a lens of critical thinking, then maybe you should just keep your takes to themselves. Even if it comes to light that Miura is a horrible person, it would still be disrespectful to his living relatives to trash his name. These "people" are just begging for clout and refuse to be critical or accept that something just simply "isn't for them".
I remember the good old days when I was a teenager reading berserk in the library it's too bad that the author died before he could finish but he left behind such a great story
Didn't his helpers complete it?
@@thejudge4421 They managed to finish the chapter Miura was working on at the time of his death, but they haven't confirmed anything either way on the future of the series. At this time, it's up in the air.
Guyver fans: First time?
@@wpeniche omg I remember finding one of my first animes at blockbuster, random tape, it was Guyver. Parents rented it going oh it's animated must be OK for him to watch🤣
George RR Martin needs to learn this lesson.
I'm In the middle of reading Berserk rn.
I can say without a doubt that despite it being full of trauma and horror and adult themes, it is an incredible story of human triumph and the will to live.
People clearly just don't understand what good art is anymore.
People are afraid to get out of there comfort zone to enjoy anything interesting or great, "green room" is great movie that opened my eyes to violence in movies and how it's important to the storyline same with "Akira" and "saving private Ryan" all of them are fantastic and I cannot recommend any of them enough
The fact that Berserk made Twitter this angry by existing makes me want to get into the series.
Same lol
Must be a good story then
“Berserk is so sexist towards women, it has no deep meaning and no respect for women!"
So are we just ignoring the fact that Guts got raped as a child which made afraid of physical contact to the point that when he was being intimate with Casca, Guts was genuenly scared, so Casca showed true care and love towards him? Because if so that is far more fucked up than anything the Manga conjured up. And is arguably worse and more sociopathic than Griffith’s feelings towards everyone close to him as he screwed them all over for his own selfish gain. Figuratively, and certain characters cases, quite literally.
I recommended Berserk to my friend, and once he got into "that night" scene, he can't go on reading further however he doesn't kick a fuzz and just say "this is not for me" and read other manga.
That's how it's supposed to be, no need to protest and try to change something to your liking.... something Twitter never seems to understand
The other part is the person not going "wtf do you mean this isn't for you!?"
@@mierzhen yep
That's the problem. Seemingly every Twitter user is the type who thinks the sun revolves around the Earth. They think everything is made for them and them alone, and if they don't like it, they will scream at someone until they are blue in the face. They will complain until some corporation steps in to act like their mothers and shield them from the harsh reality they just saw, until they ruin everything for the rest of us. Just wish there were some corporations that would take the place of their father instead and tell them to grow up. Art imitates reality. The art in Berserk, while some of it highly imaginative and fantastical (or interpretive), could not exist if it wasn't based on things that can and do happen. Manga and anime are not the same as western cartoons... they are not made strictly for children. So yes, there are sexually explicit acts and violent themes in the story. Many western stories have those as well.
Anyway I went off on a tangent. Point being I agree with you, not every book, anime, manga, or movie will be for everyone. Either you like it or you don't. If you don't, move on and find something you do like. That is how the rest of a civilized society works.
@@mierzhen well , something like that is happenign to many kids worldwide as we speak... if you can aknowledge a cruel reality with no problem , why would a fictional scenario of this relaity make you say "i cant read this" ??

Everyone I know since elementary always asked me to play FIFA together. I suck at it, can't even win against CPU, but I don't go raging on twitter.
Yesterday I got platinum on Elden Ring, asked them how far they went, they said it's too hard for them, but I'm awesome for getting that.
Normal human behavior.
So I'm a lady who likes Berserk. I started reading it when I was around 15 years old and I love it with all my heart, it's inspired me as both an artist and a writer in so many ways. I was so heartbroken when Miura passed because it felt like I'd lost something so important in my life, and I did. We all did.
So to see a bunch of hypersensitive Twitter crybabies talk so much trash about Miura and his work while missing the point of everything is honestly kind of infuriating, but not at all surprising. Their tears just make me want to work harder to be a good writer and artist though because even if they hate me, doing what I love is better than getting validation from crybabies. I feel like that's something a lot more people should resonate with.
Thanks for making this video Gundam! I really hoped you would after seeing that one tweet in one of your previous videos.
Many scenes throughout the manga depicted this twitter fodder. The masses of empty husks of flesh with no independent thought mindlessly following the first idol that shows up in front of them. I wouldn't take it too personally. There will always be people who are more content piggybacking off an opinion rather than taking the time to research and formulating one themselves.
@@anthonyfaiell3263 Too true unfortunately, people like the ones we see in this video never really see the true value in something like Berserk. They simply choose to cherry pick out of context pages and panels because they depict something they don't like and everyone else just gasps in horror. In the end though, the opinions of Twitter users matters very little to me even if it is annoying. I'm still gonna have fun reading "horrible offensive" manga and drawing/writing "horribly offensive" content because it makes me happy.

Berserk is a story about a boy who experiences intense trauma, grows up, and begins to heal from and overcome his past trauma just in time to experience another even more intense trauma. He spirals down into an unhealthy lifestyle and over time meets people who help him begin to heal from that trauma as well and we get to see him start to become the hero he should've had the opportunity to grow into, had the world not been so cruel to him. People hate on berserk because they only look at out of context jpegs
People hate on berserk because they are miserable, self righteous, ignorant mouth breathers who let clickbait headlines define their beleif system rather than their actual lived experiences.

couldn't agree more with this
@@silverhawkscape2677 but still, its acurate as hell tell the truth
@@silverhawkscape2677 no it isnt. You are lying. It is a perfect precis for Guts' arc.
Berserk was one of the first mangas I actually sat down and read and honestly, it was very cathartic to read. I had a lot of my life change in the course of a few months and it brought with it a severe wave of depression and anxiety that I couldn’t shake off, like I was fighting a battle that couldn’t be won. Seeing Guts go through a literal gauntlet made of hellish nightmares, yet refusing to give up and continuing to fight despite being branded for sacrifice, really inspired me. No matter what he went through and what he lost, he continued to fight on. Hell, I wear a ring with the brand of sacrifice just as a reminder to what the manga helped me see.
It’s a shame the people complaining about it are judging it simply upon surface value. Yes, the imagery and themes are pretty horrific and disturbing, but it also makes those moments where the characters overcome them so much more impactful. Plus I’m sorry, life is not cushy like the detractors want it to be; it can be brutal and unforgiving and it’s full of people who will be cruel and wicked, but you can do your best to fight against it where you can.
Well to be fair this is the same group who sent death threats to the author of My Hero Academia over the fact that Bakugo and Midoriya weren't gay for each other so... Yeah.. I pretty much expected this. Though I'm surprised it took em this long to find out about it. I wonder what will happen when they find out about the likes of Type-moon Franchise or any of kouta hiranos works (Hellsing & Drifters) or better yet Panty & Stocking (which is finally getting a season 2 apparently so I'll be watching with great interest.) Wonder what'll happen if they find out about Caterpillar or god forbid Goblin Slayer. Oh wait...
Yeah a bunch of sick creeps.
IMO ignorance is bliss when it comes to these cases.
I just ignore it by leaving these platforms and whatever stuff on them.
The thing that gets me about these types of folks is that they don't understand villainy. One of my favorite authors David Gemmell had crazy shit happen when armies took cities. He did not go into gory detail George R.R. Martin style, but established that things like babies being crushed against walls was a thing. I find it odd that twitter folks who often call for violence against real people get offended when authors show violence against fake people. To them a person saying "Kill all men." is stunning and brave but a manga showing that violence is terrible and has consequences is somehow misogynistic. Long live Berserk. And twitter is not a real place.
of course they get angry at violence at fake people. they feel the pain when their kin is slain
How can villains understand villainy?
Sociopaths are devoid of empathy.
The only "villain" they understand is the villain they think they can bang. More often than not, their "heroes" are written as villains unintentionally.
@@ForeverLaxx Given the number of leftist women I see simping for Tywin Lanniser, I think you're onto something.
Twitter has people who claim that words are violence, that not agreeing with them is violence, that silence is violence... for fucks sake, they probably think a loaf of bread is violence.

Ive discovered berserk many many years ago and all i have to say is that its a work of art. At first i was like "oh a big dude with a huge.fkin sword. Must be fun." And then i read it and contemplated life while waiting for new chapters to come out. Bro had such a shitty life...from the moment of his birth(semi spoiler- its a fcked up way to be born like that), and still always found strength to move on. True motivation. So many things and details really make this into a work of art.
Twitter gives people a platform that definitely don’t deserve it. Everyone has an opinion, not all need to be heard.
Agreed
All can be ignored. Let the cattle moo if they want.
I think the rarest virtue these days is being humble. Everybody has a soapbox they think their horrible opinion posts on twitter make a difference in the world
In a normal society, stupid opinions get berated and corrected, but Twitter is the opposite. It's the only place where those opinions are met with pats on the back. It's an echo chamber of childlike entitlement.
Honestly, the problem is just one kind of opinion is allowed.
Twitter has never ceased to amaze me in how depraved and evil humanity can be.

Berserk es una obra maestra que muestra lo peor del ser humano y al mismo tiempo nos hace apreciar la esperanza y los actos de bondad . Casca hasta el eclipse es un personaje femenino fantástico. Nos muestra las consecuencias del abuso y el trauma.

Any scene with tortured/dismembered corpses were equally likely to be male or female.

@@yonalkaru1402 happy tree friends simply glorifies violence. Berserk doesn't have anything to do with that. You're not supposed to enjoy people's suffering in Berserk.
"Medieval times wasn't like this and its more like pre-recorded history."
Someone needs to tell this guy that Guts character is literally based on the historical mercenary Gotz.
Thinking about it, the author wasn't aware of Gotz as it was quite a coincidence of their similarity. However, the story of Berserk depicted the olden days pretty well, it wasn't a pretty place to be alive back then since you're guaranteed to die or get screwed over in so many ways.
'Medieval times wasn't like this'.
This person's concept of medieval is based on Disney princess movies.
They've forgotten that we've had a few genocidal maniacs stack bodies in the hundreds of millions in much more recent times than castle and steed era poky stabby shenanigans.
@@randomidiot8142 Especially craploads of impaling and torturing in old days of Romania. Forced labor since you're most likely serfs, constant famine since they didn't discover the Americas along agriculture wasn't well developed. Getting abused, murdered, molested by the nobles since human rights were nonexistent, or getting invaded, raided by another country since said nobility managed to piss off their neighbors (if you're in northern Europe or in Asia, you might meet the Mongols and Vikings which 50/50 they might do business with you or mugging you.)
I'm not sure what history lessons have been like in the past 14 years, but if they haven't been learning this stuff in school then they're heavily sheltered.
Nobody tell them medieval movies, TV shows and video games are educational and somewhat factual. I don't think they'll be able to handle such delicate information.
No wonder people call them snowflakes, because they're absolute melts. 😄
There was a lot of rape and murder in medieval times, because frankly banditry and abuse from the knight and noble class was common.
No manga has ever made me feel so trapped, no control so helpless, there's no satisfaction in reading the manga Guts having the worst luck but still not dead and meeting someone like Griffith who wants to gain control
This video is so well made I've been rewatching it a few times and I only have one critique, when describing apostles I feel like it's always important to mentioned that they chose to throw away their humanity and become monsters, like the Count was so depressed and upset about his wife's betrayal that he didn't want to feel sadness anymore and Griffith sacrificed the Band of the Hawk just so he could keep on dreaming. They all sacrificed someone dear to them, they all made a choice, that's what makes them irredeemable.
Author: wants to stress how despicable a character is by showing him with a background full of impaled women.
Woke audience: “he’s a misogynist and deserves to die!!!”
Author (in his grave): “you’re talking about the character, right???”
I hope they never find out about... The Horse..... The damn horse...
Ya gonna rant about it but that’ll do.
It’s hard for me to fathom that mindset can’t understand difference between author’s creative intent and their personal one.
Then again, is a reason mostly departed from social media 8 years ago.
With the mentality most of them have, I doubt they would even understand the horse. They would probably assume it means something else like:
"I will mount you..." is clearly the horse throwing off the shackles of slavery to overthrow it's cruel human masters! All praise the horse!
Twitter: Wyald is an awful, evil misogynist!
Miura: yeah, that’s the point

As soon as they said this didn't happen in medieval times I wanted to smash my head against a wall. The various forms of torture seen in Berserk can all be traced to real life torture methods that have been recorded in medieval history. There are a few that are more 1600s inspired but most of these are from the late medieval period which is around the time Berserk is technologically. People need to realize that these types of torture and punishment methods weren't really stopped in favor of more humane methods until the mid 1700s. And this more humane method was simple hanging where there were rules to stop prolonged suffering by simply stabbing or shooting them. It wasn't until the 1800s when the modern form of hanging which grants instantaneous death was invented.
i dont wanna read it because it was left unfinished, and im afraid of it being so good that once i hit the last availbale chapter the existential void thatll hit will be so hard that ill want to kms.

Nice, very nice. Let me just drop this like and be on my way...
@@rayzorduality2396 it took longer than i want to admit to come up with that
That was probably my favorite arc. It really showed the emotional toll Guts had to carry on his shoulders. The 2016 Berserk was already bad enough, but they chickened out and skipped the Lost Children Arc. That was the icing on the cake.
Even Netflix was gatekept by it lol
(For those who don't know, the offense to God, also known as the Netflix berserk anime adaptation, skipped over that arc entirely)
It’s been a while, what happened in the lost children arc?
Berserk, despite it's darkness and gore, is a surprisingly uplifting story.
Even if everything is going to shit on a global level, there is still happiness to be had in every moment where shit does not go wrong
Because Berserk was always about fighting back against the darkness, no matter how cruel the world continues to become
It’s literally just a story of absolute struggle. It’s incredible. Guts whole power set is he just struggles and overcomes.
Not to sound like a know it all, the Greek word “Hamartia” is the common word used for sin in the New Testament. Which fits really great with the explanation of the story arc and your observation.
I don’t just reference from a void, I am a Christian, (full on card carrying Jesus loving/following Protestant evangelical since we like labels) but I love great story. Berserk is a modern classic. Love how such rich and compelling storytelling comes from pages of manga. It is hard getting through some of the more gory stuff and I will skip the graphic sex scenes but it doesn’t detract from the arc.
Thanks for standing up for good stories Gundam and for fighting against the neutering of every heroic tale.

Gatekeeping is always morally right and should be seen as such.
I was on twitter during the entire fiasco and fake outrage when Miura passed and even watched it spread to other sites. People were actually rejoicing that he passed 'cause they thought Berserk was an abomination and it made my stomach churn.

Seriously you going over berserk as a Greek tragedy in this is one of the best things I’ve seen on RUclips in a long.
I don't get why so many people are completely fine with murder being portrayed in works of fiction but not rape, as if the first wasn't just a horrible as the latter.
because their offensiveness skyrocketed because of those crying people on Twitter. Rape, racism, stating any realistic differences of men and women have been made a very dangerous zone in daily life, internet, and entertainments. Although let's be real, it's mostly in US and it's mostly Americans and people there crying about it, outside US no one cares and they don't cry on the internet. If Berserk was made in the west, it wouldn't come out in the first place and that should tell you something. Oh no I'm a racist now I guess :P
Ah yes, Twitter. The place where people try to make things more inclusive, by first figuring out who to exclude.
I'm a woman here, and I really like Berserk. I honestly think it's my favorite manga.
The point of showing Wyald with the dead bodies of women and children is to show us what are apostles. Wyald had no semblance of morality or empathy and took sadistic pleasure in his actions. It's meant to make you uncomfortable, it's meant to show the depravity within humanity when all that makes us human is lost.
The rape of Casca is disgusting. It makes my skin crawl, it's absolutely horrible. It's meant to do that though. I remember watching the movie with my boyfriend and he was absolutely disgusted by it and he felt like it really shows what trauma does to a person. However, the entire eclipse scene is meant to be that way. We've seen how inhuman an apostle is, imagine one of the God Hand that create those monsters. We are shown absolute evil, hell, the God figure is literally called the Idea of Evil.
These Twitter users are literally just taking everything at face value with none of the context behind it. It's meant to be disgusting, no one is reading berserk, wishing that they were Wyald. No one sees themselves in something so inhuman.

Berserk was a huge impact in my late teenage life. I am in my 30’s for reference. There were defining moments in my life where I did not think I would succeed in my endeavors, but dug deep within myself like Guts to persist and fight on regardless. I would not be where I am now in life without Miura and his understanding of the human condition and the inspiration to stay determined even when the whole world seems to be against you. 🗡 💪🏽
Quite possibly, the greatest graphic novel/manga of all time. Kentaro Miura had more talent, patience, and insight in his pinky at age 10 than 95% of modern twitter users.
Literally the best romance in all of fiction
The Incal could rival it.
Ironic that the hive mind on twitter would hate a story filled with trauma and horrible experiences something that they nearly treat like an aesthetic and a personality trait instead of a weakness that they should work towards overcoming. Yk, like guts.
Berserk is not for "kids".
That's crazy, I randomly stumbled upon that game and thought "guy with big sword, and it has blood. I'll take it". I played through it and fell in love with the atmosphere and unapologetic grittiness. It was months after I beat the game that I discovered there was a 90's anime, which I binged watched, and then the cliffhanger ending made me read the manga.

I actually don't think the principle of admonishing antisocial behaviour is a bad one; it's part of raising a child or training a dog; but it's not supposed to be a sport or fun or done publicly to impress others, and it's supposed to be reserved for actual antisocial behaviour. The only thing liberal about these people is how freely they spread their hatred around.

First off, people who rant and vent their frustrations on something they know nothing about on Twitter is already a lost cause. Secondly, I’m convinced that people on twitter bashing berserk have not actually sat down to read a single page of the actual manga.
They definitely haven't sat down to read a single page of anything. Not even the TOS of Twitter itself.
@@floreroafloreril1458 lets be real here, who reads the TOS in whatever service what they use
@@clementtompel21 I do with the ones that are payed so fair enough, no one is going to read those of Twitter lol
They can watch the punisher kill people on Netflix but when it comes to berserk all of sudden its a bad influence ? Ok 👌
Yeah. Whats worse is anyone that takes twitter seriously. Calm down you'll be okay lol those kids on twitter not liking berserk isn't going to effect your life or the world in anyway
This whole thing reminds me of what Joker said in TDK. A battlefield full of soldiers gets ripped apart and nobody bats an eye cause it's all part of the plan. But if one singular woman gets killed, everyone loses their goddamn minds. How disturbing is it that a fictional psychopath makes more logical sense than Twitter?
He didn't say woman, he said something else. I forgot tho.
@@patriciajin6206 he didn't, I just changed the quote slightly to match this situation
@@BatVader-ne6kf Oh I see.
@@patriciajin6206 he said Politician or something like that ^^
Joker was the protagonist. Batman was the villain. Joker saw a chance to bring redemption, but batman represents the old guard. The old way is the only way (now stfu and pay your taxes or die slow way)
so people are sooking about the gore in berserk but the final episode of invincible is aMaZiNg, literally kills thousands of woman and children and everyone bent over and begged for more
Dude, 90s animation and stories are pretty much all I like, I’m so grateful for it
