Cuz the Guts goes berserk and wears the berserker armor?

Gotta get past the part where Griffith fucks everyone over.

Also, finally off the boat. EIGHT FUCKING YEARS.

It's because his fighting style is very similar to someone going berserk. I wouldn't be surprised if he killed an ally now that he has that armor.

I think the OP has quite some time to go before the ship arc.
I'm also filled with pure-hearted ulterior motives.

Because he goes out of control due to being driven by a rage? Isn't that literally what the word berserk means?

Guts'es fighting style, his temperamental issues and even his armor alludes to the title.

Because the author thought it was a Norse word for family & didn't find out till after that it's actually the name of an extreme metal band.

Guts isn't trying to live some peaceful life, even if his waifu didn't get ruined by Griffith.

He's an avenger. He wants to kill all those bastards who made him suffer.

His armor being the Berserker Armor that makes him lose control is more of a metaphor for his entire way of life in the series.

It's how Puck described an instance of when Guts fucked up some dudes. I believe he said something along the lines of "Sheesh...berserk." I think it was in the Black Swordsman arc, but I could be wrong on that. It was the first title drop anyway.

Also, it's pretty thematic.

So it's called berserk not because there is a berserker or the name of Gutz is berserk but because he goes into a berserker state wearing an armor called berserk that i just got spoiled.

The boat arc has ended.

Still a long way before Berserk ends.

But we'll see it end before Togashi releases a new chapter of HxH that's for sure.

He should consider himself lucky that he has over a hundred chapters to read. I've been waiting for 2 years to pick up Berserk again so that I don't catch up in less than 30 minutes.
I'm also filled with pure-hearted ulterior motives.

Like a localization? Not too sure but I'm sure you can google that.

As for translations, they are up to date considering how slowly Berserk releases a chapter.

37 volumes of it are published by Dark Horse. Sad part is that their prices are very high in comparison to other companies.

Because Guts hacks his way through hordes of people and demons like their made of tissue paper, as if he's a crazy beast. It was pretty obvious even before the Berserk armor was introduced.

This question is honestly so obvious. Even before I knew anything about Berserk, I saw this huge guy with a huge ass sword on a poster. That guy's name was Guts. Pretty much figured it out from there.

People stop spoiling the armor acquisition, you've killed all the build-up towards that event.
