| I'm not a Berserk fan but this was a solid chapter and one of my favorites in a while from this manga. Plus, the double-page spreads here looked fantastic too so visually as well one of the best in a while that Miura's drawn. The ending of it was dope too and a nice way to act as a cliffhanger for the future chapter. |
| Fantastic art in this chapter. Ngl for a second I thought that woman with her back tured was Griffith because of her hair being similar to his. It's interesting that we're finally learning more about Skullknight (I think it's heavily implied that it's him) and the armor. Great chapter, albeit short. |
| This chapter went by too quick... it's interesting nonetheless to see more details of the Skull Knight's past, and even more evidence that points towards him being Gaiseric. |
 |
| DUDE WTF, it took ages to get this chapter and it's so damn short! =( |
 |
| The art was great in this chapter. I'm very curious to know more, let's wait again. griffithisdead said: Could the woman Skull Knight was holding be SLAN? I had the same feeling, honestly. |
 |
| The former God Hand and King Gaiseric’s Eclipse moment with the birth of Void ! I wonder who that woman in his arms is (probably his lover) and what role she might play later. |

| Stunning Art and Chapter as whole but damn does Miura makes hate waiting so much for the next chapter. Finally glad we're getting into Skull's Knight backstory |
| "You can't spell slaughter without laughter". |
| Amazing artwork but a such a short chapter. Even so major stuff is happening. |
| Interesting. Not only the art was awesome, but the panel of Guts and Skull Knight´s helmets was just incredible. You can clearly see the eyes of SC about to descend into madness. So, are we going to theorize that Slan is that girl that he was holding on his hands? None of the God Hand were the same, besides void, so that might indicate that SC already killed 4 of them, which were replaced with Void as their mentor or something. |
| Loved it, but it was too short and barely anything happened! It's getting more and more interesting though. Each chapter is going to be a snippet of SK's story now and I'm living for it! |
 |
Btw, to those who think that woman could be Slan, she had a sacrifice mark on her shoulder, so that can't be true. A sacrifice cannot become God Hand if I remember correctly!  |

| @FAKEBLUE Yeah, I agree. It's to show Guts that him and SK have felt similar pain. |
|
Not just 362, I've reread Berserk too so I've spent quite some time with this franchise and not been a fan. Still respect the earlier portion and the overall art though. |
| Damn, the art was so good. Finally, Berserk seems to be going somewhere. I mean, with how the manga has been post GA, it is not unnatural to not like it with the same intensity. It made me drop its score too. |

GreisLocane said: Btw, to those who think that woman could be Slan, she had a sacrifice mark on her shoulder, so that can't be true. A sacrifice cannot become God Hand if I remember correctly! in fact you are right, plus if we look at the necklace she wears she looks more like Danan the queen of the elves than Slan |
| A new Berserk chapter always makes me feel like it's Xmas morning Awesome art as usual and dare I say with a bit of the ole Miura feel. The parallels between Skull Knight and Gits are again striking. The long held theory that Guts will end up like him keeps burning strong. I wouldn't be surprised if also before the end, SK gives up his "life" in order to help Guts take down Griffith. |

| OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GOD. WOW. JUST WOW. MY HANDS ARE SHAKING! MY BRAIN IS TRYING TO WRAP AROUND WTF WERE ABOUT TO GET. THIS CHAPTER. OHHHHHHHHHH MY GOD. 10000/10 chapter. WOW! |
 |
| WE ARE FINALLY GETTING A FLASHBACK TO VOID AND THE SKULL KNIGHT. OH MY FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD. YES! |
|
Marcos_Aspira said: DUDE WTF, it took ages to get this chapter and it's so damn short! =( I think this is JUST the introduction to what could be a flashback arc! |
|
| Is it just me, or did the other figures behind Void look more like statues than other God Hand members? On my first read that's what I assumed by looking at them, and it wasn't until I listened to a couple of YouTube videos that I heard the idea that they were previous members which have since been replaced. I guess there's no reason they couldn't be a previous cast of 5, but I thought it was assumed that the God Hand were created one at a time every 400 years or something? |
 |
| 10/10 chapter and we got mysteries solved but more questions, but im glad we learned more about skully |
 |
| Confirmed what we know already, Skull Knight is King Gaiseric. I didn't expect there to be a different God Hand in his time though, perhaps he killed the four but Void managed to escape and create new ones. |

Aedial said: If you pay close attention, you can see the whole area is burning with the brand, just like the scene of Femto’s rebirth (inquisition arc). Tho, I don’t think Skullknight became a God’s Hand. Most probably his close friend, which makes a very strong parallel with Guts. Same here. He went down the path of vengeance and it didn't end well. |
|
| I've currently read 6 chapters. Is this manga monthly? Has it just returned from a haitus? |

| Finally it was revealead that the armors previous holder was Skull Knight who was a king a long time ago and let his wife (?) to be sacrificed in exchange for great power (or no, we will see) damn, this chapter was hella short :( |
| “Life is a constant process of dying.” |
| ok, it has been a loooong time but we finally got a very good chapter, very interesting to see more about Skull Knight an these older Godhand members |
 |
| NEW CHAPTER LETS GOOOO, NICE ART, NICE FLASHBACK OF SKELLY BOI'S BACKGROUND, and my deepest condolences to Miura's friend who had died recently of covid and he couldn't attend the funeral of stated covid. Thank you Miura senpai for putting in the effort during your toughest times ! |
| Great chapter, how long has it been since we saw the God Hand. Good stuff. |
 |
| I got so many questions, latest chapters were cool but the theorycraft can truly start with such a chapter. My biggest question now is what's Skull Knight? He seems to be a being close to the God Hand or something. I've always thought Becchi (Guts' blue behelit that Pucks nicknamed) would have a big role further down the line to give Guts the additional power to fight the God Hand. We'll see. I have some rereading to do, what a chapter. |

griffithisdead said: Could the woman Skull Knight was holding be SLAN? That woman is branded. I dont think sacrifices can become god hand members. |
Marcos_Aspira said: DUDE WTF, it took ages to get this chapter and it's so damn short! =( I think there were 5 double spreads. Maybe thats why it felt short. |
| This was probably one of the most important chapters we got in a while. We pretty much know at this point SK=King Gaiseric. All thats left is just to explicitly state it in a chapter. I am pretty sure this was where SK/King Gaiseric died. Guts says "That right now...was for sure...the end-" and looks at SK. Even Hanarr himself says "A blood memory that's seeped into the armor. What caused it's previous owner's life to be consumed by the Berserker." I dont think the monsters that appear out of the tentacles are apostles. Miura has previously shown significant effort to make the apostles look distinct. The highlight of the chapter was definitely the "old" god hand. Theres a lot of possibilities here. The most probable one is that this was the birth of Void as a god hand member. The way he stands before all the other members mirrors how Femto stood before all the other members when he was born. SK's condition also seems to mirror Guts' condition back then (Gedfring says "The memory seems to resonate with him"). If god hand members are born every 216 years, then maybe SK managed to kill 4 of them and Void "rebuilt" the god hand with Slan, Conrad, Ubik, etc. Or one by one, they just "retired" (for lack of a better word). Now I dont think that lady is Slan. She bears more of a resemblance to Danann. That would also explain SK's connection to elves. Maybe she was just was Casca was to Guts. But that raises the question of how Slan knew SK and even addressed him as "Your majesty". I have a feeling the next chapter would be even more monumental than this one. This one raised a lot of questions but also answered some. Very excited for the next one. Also, condolences for Miura's friend. The "so lonely" part hurt me a little... |

StrawHatTitan said: I've currently read 6 chapters. Is this manga monthly? Has it just returned from a haitus? I think the we are supposed to get a chapter every 2 months but most of the times, it gets delayed. So we end up getting 2 or 3 chapters in a year. |
| It's always the same with Berserk. The wait was totally worth it. Maybe Casca gonna die. |
 |
| This is the first time i've read the chapter with only two days of delay. I usually found out months later. I feel so lucky it was this chapter. It was great |
 |
| holy fuck the art was NEXT LEVEL even for a berserk chapter |
 |
| A good chapter, although small, will we have a mini arc with the history of SK? Looking forward to the next one. |
