| I was so happy when I saw Rickert do that slap ^_^ |
| Trash mammal |
| It wasn't enough. The bith slap was though. |
 |
 |
 |
| Rickert with his bithslap hit Griffith more that Guts and the Skull knight ever managed since he became a God Hand. So Ricket is op lol. |
 Bitch slap of the millennium. |
| I thought Rickert was gonna bow and worship him like everyone else and then he comes and bitch slaps Griffith, solidifying even more my belief of Berserk being an excellent manga. Based Rickert. |
| He should have given him the backhand as well but besides that I have to say i'm really loving the art for Berserk now it looks so clean.......so smooth |
| good job rickert |
 |
| Well said Rickert |
 |
| Awesome chapert! The bitchslap was well deserved! I see some people think that Griffith will kill/punish Rickert which i honestly doubt. Griffith has so much stlye and acts like a real sir, killing a kid would be beneath him imo. |
| This chapter felt empty I guess it's because I'm used to seeing action all over the place. And way to go Rickert!! |
 |
| You have some guts to do that. Good job Rickert. |
| how can he be so cool... i think now his right hand is cursed too^^ this may be the first time a human show him hate since he became the "savior" |
| I read the chapter again just to see Rickert being a BAMF. Worth it. |
|
| Is there any word on when the next chapter will be out? these ones were strangely close, i hope it's not another year lmao |
| Does anyone else need a doctor to confirm that someone without a head is dead? |
| YES!!!! I wanted to see something like this for sooooo looong! Griffith didn't die unfortunately, but a slap is something !!! Good guy Rickert ;) |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Rickert you was so awesome in this one! Thank you, I wanted someone to do that for a long long time, hope next time we see Guts! |
 |
| How dare he hit Lord Griffith |
| I dislike lelouch vi Britannia. im a shiki supporter my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCR90F0rzcss4CsrAbkZXTkg/featured?view_as=subscriber Just past the 1500th Mark bitches I approve this video http://youtu.be/U_0CCLxibFk |
| What a chapter I got for my last read. I have been enjoying these last 5/6 chapters greatly! And Rickert slapping Griffith made my day. I still love Griffith but he has been getting everything he wanted way too easy so this is a welcomed change. I still don't see how Guts is going to take him down even if Guts gets a power-up. Also Guts needs adult allies, his band of brats are no match for Griffiths demon/human army. Well I guess that I have to wait for the new chapters to come out. What was I thinking picking another manga that is cursed with tons hiatus -_- |

| The next chapter couldn't possibly come any sooner. |
| I'm finally up to date with the manga! And it sure is sad to have to wait for so long for one more chapter :( But well, I understand only too well how hard it is for the artist to please the readers. Ah, I swear that slap is still "echoing" in my mind... |
| Wow, I feared Rickert will join Griffith's team but no ! He slapped him like Griffith was a little shit, yeah I don't like him. It's one of my favorite chapter. Looking forward to see more. |
| so beatiful... |
| ... |
| Rickert just slapped Griffith and walked away. wow |
 |
| Rickert, you da real mvp. |
  |
| Never saw this coming.. Now only if Rickert survives till the end of Berserk, that'd be awesome! |

Within the next decade we might actually see a release of a volume. I really wish Miura would just end the manga, it's clear he wants to move on to other things. If that one-shot he made is any indication, he's dying to draw something else. I'll never get use to how mangaka's like Miura and Togashi can just do whatever the hell they want and their editors don't get on their case. I swear if those two motherfuckers didn't write such good stories I would have dropped this series ages ago. |

I swear if those two motherfuckers didn't write such good stories I would have dropped this series ages ago. I agree with that. Also, I think the sad thing is that Miura could end Berserk in a decent way, maybe not the way he intended, in a few volumes just to give the fans some closure. Let Guts & Co. get to Elfhelm, this sets up an invasion by Griffith (since he is clearly not going to let magic users exist as a threat to him), then wrap up everything there. That's just one example I thought of, the point is that we aren't that far from being able to tie it up, if he really has lost his passion. Yeah we all want some closure. At this point no matter how he ends the story, it wont have the same impact. My fear isn't that Miura will die before he ends Berserk or that Berserk will just fade into nothingness and be forgotten. My fear is that Miura will morph Berserk into the project that he wants to be working on; instead of ending it and starting a whole new series. I feel like that has been slowly happening over the course of the last 10 volumes. I don't want to sound like a pessimist but the manga has lost focus over the last few volumes. Then again chapter 337 has given me some hope. |

Then again chapter 337 has given me some hope. I'm pretty much with you there. The recent Sea God arc took that to new heights, as well. I've lurked on some of the Berserk boards and Reddit before, and it amazes me that more people don't see it and keep creating crazy theories for why he might have done a side series, the decline in output, the switch to high fantasy, etc.[/quote] I use to frequent Skull Knight forums back in the day. A lot of the more hardcore fans are downright delusional. I love Berserk, it's easily one of the best stories I've read and it's a big part of my teen years. That said, it's far from perfect. I think a lot of the newer readers or rabid fanboys don't realize that the initial appeal for Berserk was it's low/dark fantasy setting. One of the things that got me hooked to the manga was that while it was by no means realistic. It placed the characters in realistic situations in a believable setting. I mean sure if you want to be technical, it's a manga about a medieval demon hunter. Yet at the same it's much more. The demons weren't one dimensional, and weren't born demons. They were made demons. The human element in Berserk has, or I should say had, always been it's strongest point. Miura was very good at writing complex characters and having them struggle through a pretty shitty universe. Gut's being the prime example of this. As a reader I struggled along with Guts in his journey or at least I felt that way while reading. Ever since Miura started to sprinkle more fantasy into the manga here and there. I've slowly become more detached from the story. Especially when the Dwarven Berserker armor was introduced. I can forgive pretty much everything else Miura has done but that armor literally defeats Guts as a character. I understand why he added it and I get it makes some sense in the large scheme of things. The problem is that it basically contradicts this entire idea of man fighting against fate. He is no longer just a man with that armor. This is different from the hand cannon, auto-crossbow and ridiculously big sword. This is a magical item that gives him a power up making him closer to an apostle than a man. The fights just don't have the same impact with that armor. It also feels like some copout to have Schriek tag along. Anyway, lol didn't mean to get into a rant. I'll keep on begrudgingly waiting for updates as I've always done. Until I am too old and tired to give a shit or Miura dies. |
|
| Well, I suppose that was nice. See you next year, Mr. Miura! |
| I am important. I have a girlfriend. Check out my podcast |
| What an intense dialogue. Rickert does not have the physical strength of Guts, but he has without doubt his resolve.. and the courage of a whole army to perform such an act. |

Then when it goes to Guts past its obvious that its gonna build up from a realistic setting to a fantasy one. Anyways how do you expect Guts to fight against the godhand without some sort of power up, even with the armor he still will probably get rekd by any of the godhand. |
| Finally caught up with the manga. No offense however I still don't get why this is rated so high in MAL. I mean yeah the Golden Age was the best and I very much enjoyed reading it but it started to go downhill ever since the author started to add a lot more of the high fantasy elements in the story. |
| and here i am... after i stopped berserk a while ago not because it was bad just other stuff i finally decided to watch the 3 movies and reread from the beginning and continue to the newest chapter. i know many people don't like the inclusion of all these fantasy elements. personally i have no problem with them. the introduction of these elements felt natural and the cruel brutal nature of berserk is still lingering enjoyed every single chapter, simply an incredible read however after i finally caught up i realize just how far away berserk is from any sort of conclusion.. |

Until I am too old and tired to give a shit or Miura dies. I agree completely I love the first three arcs (Black Swordsman Arc, Golden Age and Conviction) but it started to go downhill ever since the annoying Loli magical girl was introduced Too much High Fantasy and RPG-like elements were introduced (power ups that Guts group got as an example), the darker elements are all but gone now[/quote] It's been high fantasy since chapter 1, and it went fully fantasy come the eclipse...there's been knights and magic the whole series what are you talking about The sea god arc (pirates? mermaids? wut?) is easily the worst Berserk arc, There is no sea god arc, at least yet, they appeared in the millenium falcon arc and are probably going to appears in fantasia too, but they haven't really got much focus and exposition yet, at leastnot enough for it to be considered an arc. edit: other way around? appeared after fantasia? whatever at least the Griffith segments are interesting (even though with the worlds merged its too fantastical now) lol if you don't like fantasy how have you been reading this manga for 40 volumes do you remember puck? the fairy arc? golden age has been far and above the best arc, admittedly. but it's hard to best perfection(exaggeration). I understand not liking fantasy, but you probably shouldn't have read 400 chapters of it. there's been demons flying around the entire manga, how can you not tell it doesn't fit your interest come the eclipse I understand the armor complaint but your complaint has nothing to do with the post you quoted lol SkullKnight fans are really big fanatics though, I'd admit that. |
