Rest In Peace, Kentaro Miura. An absolute legend whose storytelling transcends and will continue to transcend forever. It’s impossible to put into words how much he touched my life with Berserk and that is also true with countless others around the world. Thank you❤️
Amen
@@depressivepumpkin7312 If that is what you got from the series then you never truly understood it whatsoever at all. However, to each their own, if you did not enjoy the series that's fine you don't have to like it, don't have to make the time to actually understand it. However, the absolute audacity, lack of self-awareness, and pure hypocrisy to call someone sick whilst being joyful for someone's death over a work of fiction is astounding.
Let us be clear you went out of your way to come onto a video discussing a subject you knew you hated and cared nothing for, a video I know full well you didn't even bother to watch to try even understand a semblance of the story, characters, and world Kentaro was trying to portray just to spew such vile hatred and to what end? Please go seek help.
I am glad that before passing away, Kentaro Miura gave Casca peace by returning her sanity. Rest in paradise sensei.
I think that was satisfying ending for me bittersweet but satisfying
I like think their ended their journey to elfhelm and lived there rest of the lifes happily
@@vjollila96 its not the end
Griffith "saved" her from being raped, and thus she blossomed- only wanting to see Griffith see his dreams come true.
The irony: In the same way he saved her? He destroyed her.
Crazy shit, man.
Above Beyond He built her up so he could ultimately break her down
Above Beyond it's like a parent that birth you physiologically break you down as you grow up and ultimately kills you
What was Caska and Griffith's relationship? Where they close friends ??? Why did he rape Caska ?
You can say that they were close friends!; and Griffith raped Casca to break Guts down(it is said in both anime/manga "Such beauty... It touches me. Love, hatred, pain, pleasure, life, death. All are there... This is to be human. This is to be evil." by Slan)!!! Casca was the most important person in Guts's life and Griffith could see that and used it to take revenge on Guts.
Above Beyond She got saved from rape by his saviour and at the end getting raped by the vary saviour that she thought
She's so much more than just the "tough woman with a soft interior living in a man's world" type of character, and I think it took re-reading the earlier parts of Berserk and this video to really see that for me.
lol i'll say it again .... she's like Female GUTS in terms of tragedy and fighting spirit.
LaserFace23 absolutely. Casca is freaking great.
@@VixXstazosJOB Exactly! Only Casca's scars are on the inside.
@@VixXstazosJOB she cheated right in front of her very muscular, highly aggresive boyfriend with his bf; that requires a lot of courage
@@NefariousDreary Casca enjoyed it
The sex scene with Guts and Casca is one of the most beautiful moments in Berserk. It's a scene that represents love that many people don't consider. It's because they both do something that people struggle to do even now; accepting someone at their most fragile, sensitive state, and embracing them completely. They both realize how much shit they've been through, and I always get emotional thinking about how wonderful it is for two people to be so open with one another. Love to many people is about taking care of and cherishing each other. While I agree, I always think the best kind of love is one where you can show your scars, and know they can show theirs back.
Yeah but too bad they will never be able to find that love again because of Griffith raping her
@@Blinkengene12 why you gotta say something like that after such a beautiful comment?
Jessica Daniels Coz I wonder if they will manage to find this beautiful love again, which I really and deeply hope...
@@reufnovalic578 And then she screams like she's apoplectic. Either she's happy to see Guts or...
Well said
Yea, I think the rpe of Casca was revenge on both her and Guts. Griffith expected them to be devoted to him (especially Casca who had always been on his side no matter what). The last "dream" or thought of a normal life that he entertained before he went full eclipse was of Casca taking care of him-even after his horrific injuries from torture. But even she, who had never forsaken him, had finally moved on to pursue another life. It was like he truly believed he owned these people and the fact Guts and Casca dared to have something beyond him was the last nail in the coffin. His last and longest standing "possession", Casca, had left him.
change your fucking pfp
He was going to "settle" for her and got mad when he couldn't even do that.
Definitely he realised his most trusted solider was madly in love with guts and was anxious to leave him behind. It must hurt his ego seeing her look down on pity and love guts. That's why his revenge on her is petty and cruel
yea. He couldn't handle an equal relationship. They had all moved on but he was still stuck in the past, the master-servant relationship. It was either them putting their lives under his responsibility or him putting all his woes unto them. He broke completely when he was no longer the center of their universes...
Yeah, he lost his shit when Guts left, wanted to duel him.. lost, lost composure and ended up visiting princess Charlotte to regain his sense of power I presume.
'and Casca is used as a conduit for Griffith to display his power to Guts. a human reduced to a simple tool for displaying revenge and spite.' honestly, i felt so horrible when I saw the ending. not so for Guts, but for her. she is a human being, she's just not an extension of Guts story.
Thank you for this video, i really needed it
You're very welcome.
Well to be fair she’s a part of guys story but she is an individual with her own story
@@Galvatronover they said “not just an extension” meaning that while her story was part of Guts’s, it doesn’t completely define her character. We’re all part of someone else’s story, but we’re still our own people.
Poor Judeau indeed.
Lol they did my mans so dirty
Why? I can't remember
Do you mean when he died to save casca?
Forever alone
E. T. Also that he loved Casca but her eyes were on Guts (or Griffith earlier on). So when Guts came back, Judeau said to make sure he takes her with him this time. He was willing to let what he loved go.
"We want, maybe even need Casca to be restored because of how vicarously gratifying it is to see someone gain self worth from essentially nothing and learn through connecting with others that they do not need others to be their own person"
You are so freaking right that I teared up as you said it. I first watched the anime in 2004 and after sought out the manga. Berserk, to me, is the series that has taught me the most about life.
Best time spent on youtube 2018 so far.
Thank you!
No problem whatsoever, thank you for watching. Berserk has so many things to say about life, development and personal journeys, and I'm just glad to display those themes through these videos.
@@Aleczandxr couldn't agree with more. Thanks for all the efforts for making these videos
Aleczandxr you have a gift happy new year
@@Aleczandxr I cried too I haven't watched it but still
She has been restored thank god

Ur pfp goes perfectly with the comment bro
I think Griffith disliked this video. I can’t think of anyone else that would.
#Griffithdidnothingwrong
The members of the Godhand disliked this video.
Donovan would, where is his mention?
Probably the ghost of the guy who killed by caska and that big knight who was constantly beaten by her.
well guess they haven't matured enough to understand the deeper meaning in Gutz and Cascas relationship or are just tolling like most people love to do so these days ^^
Well this is gonna be depressing....
Reek 😂😂🤣ik even thought its kinda fucked up sumtimes it do give u that rush 📈
It's kinda poetic how after the Eclipse both Guts and Casca kind of revert into the same, but far more exaggerated, states that they were in before meeting Griffith. Guts was an apathetic, angry, and confrontational mercenary before his time with the Band and became a sociopathic rage-monster afterwards. Casca was a waifish and meek child before meeting Griffith, and afterwards became a near-vegetative husk afterwards.
Y'know, i got the impression that Casca saw herself as Griffith's protector. That she saw Guts as a point of weakness in Griffith achieving his dream. She appeared less hurt by Griffith's declaration to the princess. I think she was the only one that recognized Griffith as a supremely lonely individual and her dream had been to be the very person Guts became to Griffith. She seemed to know that Griffith will lie to achieve a purpose.
Casca enjoyed it
Yes, the relationship between casca and griffith is fascinating, because casca is the only one to see griffith so much fragile, after he sold himself to gennon, she saw him mutilated himself, and just before the eclipse, when he collapsed on her, trembling with a face of despair and terror. She is the only one to see the true face of griffith. And I ask myself if in the unconscious of griffith symbolically when he transforms into a suprem demon and rape her to makes suffering gust, and casca for their relationship but also because he has to destroy the weak part of himself, and has to destroy every witness of this weakness, so he destroyed casca herself.
@@larlequine4865 I never thought of it like that, but what you and op point out is so true.
So are we just gonna ignore that PERFECT lipsync at 11:02?!?!
LOL
rofl was that on purpose?
Total coincidence.
i think we know who's the real black swordsman around here ;) (Also proper respeck whaman)
dayum, you're right!
That moment when you love a anime you haven't watch just because of a amazing video review of a single character
See it and you will love it for Casca and all the others characters, like Griffith and Guts.
I believe you have a new anime to watch then!
that moment when you love the anime that you have not watched just because they still do not release the decent version of it, so, there's no anime to love for. I hope that fact change when berserk manga ends.
Watch it my dude
Don't watch it (or any of the anime adaptions) until you've read the manga. And yes Berserk has some of the best written characters in all of fiction & I'd say that Guts & especially Griffith are the best written characters in all of manga/anime.
You cry a lot when you're alone, don't you Casca?
Thank you, I'm now dead once more.
@Lil Tsunami 2 exactly what I said ! I was tripping on acid while reading vols 10-13 I cried looking at juds last words for thirty minutes before turning the page, despite all that I still get excited when Griffith pops fuck me.
*JUDEAU (thinking):* _That's it...? Those are my last words...?_
Why did you do this to me?? 😭
Fucking brutal.
This reminds me of a line from bleach, one of the few good ones they had: "Admiration is the point furthest from understanding."
John Fuklaw complicated
john lawful you have a good name
John Fuklaw lol, I made this name when you tube didn't allow made up unrealistic names
Aizen....
Casca admired Griffith in her
I think alot of anime female characters are stereotyped these days and fall into the same category, (strong sexy female character.) I think caska is really well thought out and has more depth than the average big boobed tsunade type character. She's one of the only female anime characters i really care about out of the few anime shows I've seen.
I think she is normal not big
This is so true
@@animeuniverse5586 get some glasses...
@@lasnochesking i said about caska what should you get now idk

Berserk is a brutal masterpiece of an anime, that *"R"* scene was just disgusting as fk...
Dropping that analysis on one of the best female characters in anime and manga, nice~
Your name is still fantastic :D
YetAnotherRandomRUclipsChannel Thank you!! The compliment is appreciated!
Agreed 100%, Casca is a gem
Pitou > Casca, but yeah.
The Hunter x Hunter 2011 Dickriding Association I agree, Revy is the best anime/manga female character :P I kid, Casca is awesome.
Oh God, don't remind me of the eclipse, Aleczander....Casca deserved better than that, in fact, everyone in that arc deserved better. Hopefully Schierke and Farnese will reclaim her sanity.
Here's hoping..!
Cider Bizet There's a theory I had that Casca did enjoy it, but she lost her mind over the ordeal so that was put on the back burner, however, if she does have her memories returned, if she does have sanity restored, will she be the same person? or someone completely different?
Cider Bizet she didn’t enjoy it, at all. Did you not read the manga? She was crying and kept repeating no. Just because her body was reacting doesn’t mean she wanted it.
Daughter of Palestine that as well and I do recall she was shouting for Guts, it really is one of the most harrowing scenes I've ever read.
Cider Bizet lol ok 💀💀
Berserk is fucked up and all, but look how cool Killua's skateboard is.
:')
Been awhile since I used it
Should become a meme
Niceme.me
To be honest, what happened to Casca was triggering since I was raped by a close friend in real life. Casca’s story was so sad. Also I can relate to being emotionally dependent on a man and viewing my value on what someone thinks of me. 😞
wooww......i hope you doing fine right now 💪🙏
I'm sorry to hear that
@@anatoliasmercenary. must be a troll
I really hope you're doing better now. Be strong my friend. :)
Damn 😭❤️
I had a friend who told me he hates how Casca became a Mary Sue after the eclipse, cuz she's dragging Guts down for his revenge. like wtf?! Are u serious? If it was you who watched your comrades got torn apart by monsters, then got raped by the most trusted person you look up to and worst of all, have a miscarriage, do you think you will still have a normal mental state?!!!! Sorry about the rant. This is also for the people who hate Casca! Honestly, I don't get it! She's one of the best female lead and as annoying as she is in the earlier arcs, she's still helpful.
I actually never even thought there was some casca hate until I came to this video , kinda surprised
Poor Judeau is right lol, in more ways than one. For me, his death was the most 'betraying' of all. He was the heart of the band, always looking to help others.
Unfortunately Judeau didn't think fully of how dangerous Griffith is like there was a video about Judeau hating Griffith and well it's safe to say he knew how dangerous he was. I loved the detail of him removing the mask as to show Griffith's true horror. His love for Casca was truly something
@@hadbetterdays8118 no could predict the abyss. not even griffith.
Casca, to this day, is one of the few characters I've ever cried for. I can painfully relate to her self-worth issues and dependency to point where I absolutely hated her the first time I read the manga. (At a part of my life I'm not proud of) yet when a certain event in my life occurred. When I went back to reading- I broke down in tears three times for her. As she so DESPERATELY wanted any semblance of validation from someone who'd throw her away without a second thought if it meant his "dream". Giving so much to a person whose neither worthy nor cares. It broke me to see her do it all, Casca was basically me at the start of the story. I wanted to come off as strong ,smart, and a "don't need no man" tough-yet deep down I was nothing but dependent. But it really helped in examining myself and who I really am. Casca is one of my favorite characters in Manga ever. And I swear to you that's never going to change.
Unless you're a hermit living in the mountains, meditating all day, you're always dependent on others. That's inevitable. Telling ourselves that we don't need "validation" is just a fragile delusion.
Fun fact: Casca means shell in portuguese...
Never expected her to live up to her name like that.
Interessante
casca (kazka) means tale or story in ukrainian
@@somethingforyou345 In Portuguese it means peal
Casca means shell/husk in Spanish too. I guess that goes for a lot of the Latin-derived languages.
@@sourpuss5951 no it would be cáscara
Love the Twilight Princess soundtrack! It fits surprisingly well with Berserk.
I don't care how...But someone...Anyone...Please...Give her a hug.....
I volunteer.
Dont let griffith hug her
I would hug both Guts and Casca, my poor little beans :(

Berserk analysis?
Analysis of one of my most favourite characters nontheless!?
I am harder than a rock right now.
Polnareff is a Turtle well, it is Casca, so that’s also probably a factor
I don't think she needs to know that.
Poor Judeau :(
well, at least he hit his last target...
Underrated comment (John W)
Casca is one of those rare anime women that hadn’t been over-sexualised.
Given what this poor woman has gone through, it’d be far too cruel for even most of the horniest of artists to even try.
Agreed and I love that
And her raped shouldn't had been so explicit. Neither the Guts harrasmen't as a child was so explicit than Casca's
@@monicaaboites5053 Guts assault not harassment as he was raped
No anime woman is over-sexualized. They are sexualized enough, because it's men's entertainment.
I liked her character from the beginning. The eclipse was so traumatic for me especially due to Casca's fate.
Finally someone is talking about this! I felt so bad at how used Casca was in Beserk😢
Used and discarded like nothing. Sad.
Exactly and took 10 years for freaking mangaka to. Finally give her dignity again
And got r*pe and $exu@ly as$aulted countless times like it's just a normal day
Man, what a great analysis. I like Casca a lot and seeing her like this with her mind broken... It makes me cry.
And as if it wasn't enough, Griffith is trying to turn Sonia in a new Casca. This is disturbing in so many levels.
the whole thing with Sonia is even creepier after the latest chapter
Sounds like Griffith is doing nothing wrong
@@Almighty_Mage Again
Sonia as the new Casca? Hmm...maybe but Sonia's background doesnt have sexual violence attached to it. Social isolation from her being a medium perhaps, but not sexual violence.
@@edwardgaines6561 Give it time. You can't be a true female character in Berserk until you're a victim of sexual violence whether its by a man who did nothing wrong or a horse who just wanted to be loved.
Look on the bright side, she still has the best abs in the business.
*had, unfortunately.
She's practically a skeleton now tho.... :(
Hey, hey, ya'll shut your hoor mouths.
Whackashit what about mikasa
WHAT ABOUT TEQUILA JOSEPHU FROM JBA?
SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER:
when shierke and farnese entered casca´s mind and saw the 3 legged dog carrying a broken casca doll i almost began to cry. She subconsciously knows all the sacrifice Guts is making to "rebuild" her, and she sees herself as a burden that hurts him. The worst was to see that the last fragment of her memory (the most dreaded and guarded by a dark subconcious hawk) is her child, possibly telling us that she somehow knew that was pregnant with Guts child and that Griffiths rape defiled that. i cant wait to see guts behead griffith like the lowly animal he is.
Completely agree - the symbolism and what it meant with regards to Casca's subconscious was so well done, easily the most powerful story beat in the manga for me in the last little while.
This fucking wholesome and and also hurts my heart
Gaston Jacubowicz the irony is that while Griffith brought Casca out of the helpless place she was in he was also the one to put her back into it but 10x worse
And my god this is what i LOVE about Berserk. Its a story and saga that grows WITH you. When i first read it being in my early 20s all the symbolism went right over my head. Now older i can set back in my desk chair and go
"..damn.. that's deep"
Casca DID know she was pregnant with Guts' kid & we see her experience morning sickness shortly before Griffith steals one of the carriages & rides off chasing after his "dream" (when he's having a hallucination just before he crashes & the Eclipse begins).
I uploaded this earlier and then took it down because it wasn't being sent out to a lot of sub boxes. Same issue today, but I'll just keep it here. I'd appreciate anyone sharing this around since RUclips doesn't want to seem to want to do what it's supposed to do. Anyways, hope you enjoy!
EDIT: I think it's fixed now.
Aleczandxr but I am definitely in rooting for you defeating RUclips algorithm.
can you do from the new world squealer break down or technolyxze
Analyse the complex motivations behind youtube's algorithm
It'll do what it's supposed to. Perhaps struggle, in the spirit of Berserk, against fate and outdo what was intended. Time will tell. Keep up the great work.
What's the next video about?
Please never stop doing Berserk content. You're the light, our light.
Well, the next one won’t be coming until I get off my ass and re-read the manga, so it’ll be a long time until then. But rest assured, there will be at least one more!
And now she's back, omfg best month to put this vid out!!
That timing...
Did she regain memory ???
ya'll so spoiler disrespectful
Beautiful - Colours *sanity
@@Blinkengene12 yes !!! Finally, after 10 years i stop reading and took the manga back ;)
Even if it wasn't fully resolved, I'm so incredibly happy that we got to see Casca healed before Miura's passing.
Great analysis, thank you. Casca is so often overlooked by the fandom, hearing people give her the credit that’s due is so refreshing.
Omg
No worries. Thanks for supporting.
This video made me cry
boi shut yo sensitive ass up
nvm i just cried too
I really hope Casca comes back they need her if they’re gonna beat Griffith
I was just about to post the same thing... With Judo and now Casca, can't hold my tears..
I've only read the series last year, but damn in a year this is the only manga that made me buy 38 volumes in 8 or 9 month. I just could'nt hold myself to keep going in the series. And as i read the last chapters, getting back in the first part of the story and discovering that i haven't forgot every single one interaction make me feel weird, happy, sad, and so on...
That last shot of casca. Perfect. 👌🏾
she just got her memories back (almost in tears)
When I read Berserk, I came for the gore and creepy demon shit that everyone talked about, but stayed for the story and drama. Most shoujo manga's don't have such good romance and character development as Berserk. It came to the point that I love every single character in Guts's new group. Guts is the most kind person ever, that is what I LOVE about Berserk. It shows a main character, a guy that is broken and sad, but is allowed to show how weak and insecure he really is, he was like a dog, a people pleaser, who did everything Griffith said for a few kind words of approval from him, just like he did for Gambino. But he is still pushing through and is still allowing other people to enter his heart, he is still trying to love, and that is the hardest thing ever to do after being betrayed like he was. Guts is a truly kind and emotional person, and Berserk let that kindness shine. Not many male characters have been allowed this, sadly. And his love for Casca is the purest thing I have read about in a long while.
Development was well paced and a portryal of true believable love was amazing but the tragedy was too much and i wonder they refine what they once had
Berserk started when guts was at his lowest. A man hell bent on revenge at any cost. At the end, it shows him as a changed man, still scarred from the experiences that harmed him but knowing he has the power to help others like he would've needed. Rip miura he created one of the best characters to ever exist.
For many years I've had a this incomprehensible hate for Casca, depite the fact Berserk being one of my favorites mangas. I've always thought I didn't like her because the way she acted in the first place or her weak spirit, but even after becoming a better person and gaining a noticeable development, I still couldn't digest her presence and her importance. Then it struck me, I dislike her because she reminds me perfectly of how I used to be in my teenage years, and I hated myself at that time. In the end, I don't believe I will ever like Casca, but at least I can understand why I felt that. Maybe I'll grow to love her one day. Great video.
Thank you, and thanks for sharing that!
I mean, think of it this way, what good would Guts be whitout Casca?
Dellz Same.
Hey, women like bad boys that abuse them. That's as old as time.
It's not unusual for women to hate other women.
I honestly didn't think about Casca's character in this kind of light before, so, with that being said, I just want to say thank you for making this awesome video.
Another thing I want to mention is that I've been watching your videos for quite some time and I'm happy to see just how far you have come with the editing and presentation of your videos. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much, I really appreciate it!
Probably one of my favorite videos of yours and I always think your videos/anaylsis are high quality. Just reminded me why I really love Casca as a character. I hope that she can become happy in the end, even if she doesn't end up Guts again.
*with Guts again
What makes you think she won't end up with Guts?
You really opened my eyes to some of the nuances in the caska/guts romance.
For me it was always like she become invested in guts just because she was rejected by griffith and embraced by him, but this video gives me a different take on this subject.
As always great video my friend, and let me give you an suggestion, a Guts/Schierke relationship video, the scene when he defends her in the bar, and the hat scene on the beach give me chills!
I probably won't cover Schierke in a video. More likely Farnese or maybe Serpico indirectly as a result than anyone else, sorry about that!
Aleczandxr there is a reason for that my friend?
Aleczandxr Yes , please. A video about Farnese would be amazing.
Same, I love Shierke and Guts' father/daughter relationship. Really makes you wonder what could have been if Casca and Guts' child wasn't defiled by Griffith.
I would have never thought that the phrase _"only time will tell us if Casca will gain her happy ending"_ could make me feel emotional, but here I am
Casca escaped rape so much time
But she was raped by Grifit
Its really sad because Casca always respect and love Griffith
When ur prayers are answered because ur favourite RUclipsr does another video on ur favourite manga 😍😋
brock lavallee Right? 😍😋
I relate with Casca somewhat. In the past, I've been in situations where I've put myself down when a guy I like doesn't recognize me and or ignores me as a whole. Its tough and I'm currently trying to get over my fear of rejection :s

How can Miura make such deep characters
He actually wrote out their character arcs. Didn't just do it willy-nilly.
And now, 21 years later, she is back!(?)
Does she regain memory?
Not really she's not Casca nor is she Elaine she'll probably go through an identity crisis similar to kaneki until she becomes someone else different from Casca and Elaine

Of all the "Strong Female Characters" portrayed nowadays, few women can ever be as strong, brave, fragile, yet so real as Casca, one of my favorite women in not just Anime(s), but all mediums in the Entertainment Industry! :D #Berserk

More creators need to realize that making top notch content, passionate content, content with extreme attention to detail, and the content they TRULY want to make and/or see more of on RUclips WILL be rewarded for making unique content like that instead of always trying to ride trends, do what everyone else is having success with, and chasing after stat #'s and popularity.
I remember reading this scene a decade ago, I still have Berserk PTSD until now.
I relate to Casca on many levels. So glad I came across this. Looks like I’m going to binge watch the movies this weekend 😊
Absolutely amazing quality as always. Berserk is far and beyond my favorite piece of manga, but I am seriously considering watching some of the other shows you analyze on your channel just so I can understand your videos. Hope you continue to make amazing content like this.
Thanks so much Jerry! Most (though not ALL) of the other videos I've done are on series I've thoroughly enjoyed and would recommend, so I'd recommend that for sure!
Watched this yesterday. Very enjoyable thematic overview of her journey to self-discovery and her brutal end.
Cheers.
Best analysis ever on one of my favourite characters and favourite manga. You nailed every single point and almost made me cry. Thank you!
Thanks so much!
I just received a philosophical schooling of the highest standard. That was the most definitive character breakdown i’ve ever heard. These are things you don’t really think about while watching or reading or at least, I never did. Absolutely amazing. Wonderful work. Thank you.
You’re very welcome! I don’t think I deserve this sort of praise but I’m so glad you enjoyed it that much!
@@Aleczandxr I can honestly tell you, you really do deserve it and much more. In fact I’m actually surprised you don’t have that many subscribers, or at least as much as I thought you would have. Keep up the good work bro. Love your videos.
@@mastEren11 I think this is phrase a bit poorly. 240,000+ subscribers is still a hell of a lot, and it's the result of a lot of hard work over the years. It's more than many could ever hope for and if we're talking about content creators who focus mostly on this sort of style of video for anime then he's actually one of the biggest ones out there. So forgive me but I think this sort of thing is a bit unintentionally disrespectful to creators who are smaller than him, and to him. Almost 250k is NOT "not that many"
12:45 to 12:50 is just gold
That really is a true both in the story and in real life
Great video as always my friend, you're way with words and how you are able to articulate such intense and complicated characters so masterfully is what will always keep me coming back to your channel. Berserk is a masterpiece unlike any other and deserves the utmost respect which you give it in spades. Again wonderful video Aleczandxr please keep up the great work! :D
Thank you!
The aftermath of the Eclipse was so heartbreaking when I first saw it, and it still is. Sure, we had lost a character we had spent the arc learning to love, but that goes for the rest of the Band of the Hawk. No, what makes Casca worse is that there's an AFTERMATH. What happened LINGERS and constantly reminds us of those fateful chapters
I try to wrap my mind around the fact that if each story arc was made into 25 episodes with the 1997 style animation up until the latest chapter, panel per panel, without skipping anything from the manga, no anime up to this day would stand a chance against it.
Hopefully studio powerhouse takes it over they were trying to get the rights to animate for so long idk how there gonna get the rights if the author is dead but i hope they do cause castlevania is probably one of the best animated Shows out there
This is so sad. Casca had just regained her memory and we'll never see her grow again 😢
I love the use of the Twilight Princess soundtrack.
Second best OST in the series.
I've just gotta include my favourite Zelda once in a while.
One of the best
what is it called?
It's not often a series can make me feel things, but what happened to casca broke my heart and it physically hurts everytime I think about it. It's one of the most tragic betrayals I've ever read.
Casca after Eva Heinemann is a character that i relate a lots and probably is the reason why i skip reading berserk for a long time . It's just traumatized as i am a woman who's good at math and grow up in an asian country where girl aren't encourage to be so. Every math contest is like surviving in a men's world lol. And as i has finally come to a more equal country, here, i got sexual harassed several times which lead to my second failed suicide. So you can say that i am those person who desperately need Casca's happy ending. It's unrealistic though but for a character that represent myself, i just don't want to be in her place, in that place again, i want to believe that people can move on, can fight back and stop being a victim.
But well, what can i say, berserk is seinen which is marketed for men so it won't value women that much to give casca a happy ending (at least she is relatable and has good development unlike many other shounen/seinen ( *cough* naruto *cough* ), even the reader won't think about her that deep except you (which i have to thank you a lots). So, i bet she's gonna stay this way, maybe forget everything is better, not everyone can survive throught that much.
It's an amazing analysis from you again anyway !
Jeez sounds tough hang in there
Didnt you find the rape potrayal offensive?
That's incredibly tough, good on you and thanks for sharing.
Hang in there. There are many people who respect and support you! Stay strong!
Well Berserk is not a typical anime/manga. Right now they are forming their own family/band against Griffin against IMPOSSIBLE odds. The girl witch is practically carrying the team. Idk what will happen to Casca. I think I’ll like it better if she first get her personhood back and be adult before getting her memory back. It will be interesting to see her gain self respect and her own sense of self before she confronts her memory.
This was really amazing, you tackled every point that makes me love Casca so much as a character and for that I thank you 😊
Thanks!
Aleczandxr you are welcome :)
You know i was kind of a fool to nlt think of this at all. I've re-watched Berserk numerous times and read the manga in its entirety(well to its most recent 3 years ago) and i never even thought about how Caska might have felt about Griffith's speech as well. The idea that her too will never be judged as an equal to the one and only person she respects so much she's willing to die for him; the person who even after he got arrested she STILL holds his banner in his honor fighting on in an attempt to save him one day. All this for a person who she knows will never see her actions as worth of equal respect, and Griffith's final act of raping her just solidified his contempt for her(and Gutts of course)
The contempt was aimed solely at Guts. Casca was literally just a means to demonstrating that contempt and displaying of power.
I disagree, Griffith saw that Gutts and Caska were together and when he pushed himself on her trying to take advantage of her, but unable to(potentially as a means to hurts Gutts i think) you can kind of see his resentment that he was at her mercy as seen in his dream about what it would be like being taken care of by Caska. Griffith's contempt was not only directed at Gutts but Caska as well (potentially others but for sake of the argument ill just leave it there)
Griffith did nothing wrong
Caska is basically - female Guts - in that regard though... andnow i feel proud cause i insta got this about her the first time i watched the old anime lol
that meme is boring and extremely unmmoral lol
I think Griffith's treatment of Casca after she had gained a real new confidence in herself. A person close to me was as fragile selfish and possessive as Griffith and that person would grow a dependency in others in order to feel complete. But ultimately he also was dependent on those other people so when they grew confident and left him he would try to destroy them. This behaviour is seen also in Griffith when he sees Guts and Casca being close to eachother. I think he deliberately tried to make Casca leave Guts by falling on her when she changed his bandages. WHen he couödn't separate them that way, he used the eclipse to rape her and destroy her as "punishment" for "abandoning" him.
SHE’S BACK BOIS
Did she regain memory?
B O I oh B O I
Every video analysis you do is of animes that have touched me in a significant way. Every time you post one its something ill always know ill enjoy n gain a lot from listening to. Keep up the fantastic work because youre setting the bar for analytical work on anime on youtube. You're the best.
Thank you so much :) I'm happy to hear that you find such value in these.
I really enjoy and appreciate your works, thanks a lot for being on RUclips!
Thanks for watching.
You know I look at a character like Casca and I do compare myself to her her need for validation from others did hit A cord with me when I was younger, but after some things happen that I prefer not to get into as they are rather depressing I will say that I just got kicked down so hard by life that I stopped caring about comparing myself to the yardstick that other people would hold me to and instead focused entirely on snapping that yardstick over their heads as brutally as possible because I have since learned how not to give a shit what people think about me and find worth in my own being. What I'm trying to say in my roundabout way is she eventually learned how to hold herself in esteem without the framework of anyone else's views on her and that is important for people to learn honestly I think it's a lesson that we as a society have really forgotten. We forgotten how to value ourselves and instead, value the opinions of others rather than first working on ourselves. A sad notion and a worrying prospect.
At least costco and nuts are happy in the new superman show
I love watching your videos because there is always so much to learn and so much to take a way from them. Your analysis's are always so thought provoking, come in a lot of detail, and bring to life so much more to an anime than its face value. I really appreciate your videos and hope for more to come. :)
Thanks Tasman, always appreciated!
Man I love your videos. The way you analyze these topics is so visceral and passionate. I always find myself completely captivated by your analysis despite the duration of the video. Really good job!
Thanks a lot, much obliged!
you can truly tell how much of a horrible being Griffith if because of how he was the one to help Casca when she was about to get rapped as a kid and yet in that scene when he becomes the creature hes the one to actually just use her and rape her to show power over Guts, the story of this woman is truly one of the saddest ones ive seen
_Great job with this video. I really enjoyed it and Casca is one my favorite female characters ever. Now, I am hoping to see one analysing Farnese. I'm really into Berserk._
Thanks! Not sure if I'd do one on Farnese but it's not impossible. Just need to stop being lazy and re-read post-Golden age stuff.
man I binge watched the entire series so I can watch this. Thanks, it was a good series and analysis =)
Damn I gotta say you really hit it out of the park with this one. Not only was it a great video but it made me realize how similar parts of me are to Casca's character and I've been a fan of this show/manga for years without picking up on that aspect. Didn't realize how much I needed a video like this for some self reflection of sorts. Much respect for what you do on this channel man, keep up the amazing work!
Cool, that's awesome to hear. Always nice to see that these expose people to connecrtions to some of these characters that they were previously unaware of. Thanks for the support pal!
Damn this was awesome. I thought the Guts & Casca relationship was the most sound aspect of the show overall, so it was nice to hear you put all of my thoughts an emotions towards it into words.
You really earned my patreon support! Keep the great work up!
Thanks so much man, I'm delighted to have it!
Amazing analysis of one my favorite characters! You have truly earned a sub.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
I cannot watch this for another couple hours but you know it’s the first thing I’m watching when I get the chance. Thank you again!
I appreciate it!
Another excellent video by my boy Alecz.
:)
rest in peace, miura. we will never find out the end of the manga.
What an AMAZING and in-depth video. Incredible.
Thank you.
Terrific and nuanced analysis as always. Keep up the great work dude. Looking forward to the next one!
Thank you.
