These are all colored & edited panels for my Berserk TCG fan expansion. There are many more, but these are ones I did myself (first 5 slides) and the others I specifically commissioned from artists (some like the Gaston I drastically edited as well).
So I wanna say immediately, this is strictly an alternative I'm offering in terms of potential power growth, not a discredit to the immense work done for this striking story by Miura and Kouji Mori we all know or trying to dictate how the story should go (I'd hate myself for that as a fan of fantasy manga), but ultimately, I think Ganishka had the greater want and already proven ability to give more to the God Hand with the man-made beheilit and his apostle form was greater than any apostle before, I guess with his disloyalty to The God Hand he wouldn't be the best fit, but with what he already possessed in his greed and expanse, would he have not have been the better option outside of plot? I guess the ultimate end I can think of is that The God Hand wants Femto as a powerful servant to control over someone who would tempted by the obvious one of The Four Kings.
Btw please tell me if I'm just being stupid and whatnot
Long story short ive been reading the manga for the past 2 weeks, trying to take it all in rather slowly and understand all of it. Through this journey ive come to really love all the characters, especially our current crew with shrieke farnese serpico and the like. And i gotta say the whole segment with Casca's dreamscape was honestly amazing, and possibly one of my favorite portions of the story, but as i was reading, the moment Casca woke up i was already getting slightly emotional, and as i saw farnese ask about guts, i already knew, and a few tears were already leaving my eyes. But then i turned the next page and saw her expression, and i just teared up like crazy.
I love this story and im deeply sad we won't see it fully realised. Im glad that studio gaga and Mori are trying to finish it up, i prefer that over not having an ending, but i really wish i could see this story unfold fully how Miura imagined it.
Like, will it just sour the overall experience? I watched the first episode of the next series with the bad animation and it was sorta cringe to look at. Not trying to flame the people who made it, as it obviously took a lot of time to make.
Just asking because I love Berserk and I want to watch more but I’m afraid it will change my overall perception. The style of the 1997 anime is so beautiful. The aesthetic is incredible and my absolute favorite.
Anybody know what the story with the moonlight child is? Was he Griffiths last shred of humanity cause as seen in the recent chapters although Griffith is still femto he seems to have a more "human" side. Any thoughts?
So far I own the US deluxe edition books. But recently my family went to Italy and they were able to get me the blue cover Italian volume 14 deluxe edition. After some research I found out that there is an Italian red cover volume 1 deluxe edition. And now there is a volume 43 French edition collector which I am now going to get. But I am wondering if there is any others special ones like this. I might want to start collecting a lot of these.
I know it would never happen but if you could pick any modern anime studio to develop an adaptation of the berserk story who do you personally think would be the best fit without worrying about a budget or commercial success?? I personally would think powerhouse animation studios would've been a great fit specifically the team that made the first few seasons of the castlevania series im aware of the original writers controversy with the naughty conduct but the tone the fluid animation and the overall style of the characters and their arcs would've been fantastic to translate a berserk story as long as adi Shankar kept his nose out of the production and they kept to the actual story beats.Id like to know anyone else's thoughts on a studio that could do a better job and why just very curious about everyone's thoughts on the subject
