Berserk - The Black Swordsman

[Elthanes]

I'm hearing rumours the anime will skip the Lost Children arc. I don't like it, but it's understandable, since that arc's borderline impossible to put on television even if they censor the shit out of it, and it's among the more skippable chapters in terms of adapting the story. At best we'll get an OVA.

I really don't consider the orgy in the cave or the brutal torture-room as more appropriate for television

More appropriate than an entire arc where the enemies are little kids with the final boss being a naked loli that flirts with guts and then gets graphically gutted.

[2Bad]

That was awful

[Rockxas]

At the very least I can agree it was not good, just... alright I guess. The opening definitely feels like a mess though, I hope it turns out to be incomplete and that it gets better.

[Alternative Ice]

No Lost Children arc. Isn't it sad Elf?

[2Bad]

Literally speaking to the Elf King I can't believe this

[Elthanes]

So next chapter we're back to Rickon?
Also this was probably my favourite chapter in 2 years or so

[2Bad]

There's a possibility that within a year Casca will be talking again ffffffffuuuuuck

[Elthanes]

That's gonna be pretty akward considering she last spoke 20 volumes ago

[Marmadillo]

Yeah, I dunno. I have feeling they'll be sent on a quest to gather herbs or smth.

[Solomos]

Miura is such a fucking tease.

[GhostDIGIT]

So close yet still so far.

[aldeayeah]

Lo! A good chapter that kinda stands on its own!

[Desuclocker]

So how is the gang going to screw up Casca's treatment, I wonder. Leave her with crippling fear of Guts even though her memories are back? Or just make her curl up in a ball of depression?

[Paitouch]

They all get to experience the Griffith treatment from Casca's POV and then everyone comes out broken and scared of Guts.

[aldeayeah]

I guessed that too, except I suppose the mage-loli may be able to hold her own.

Maybe there's a Guts and a Skull Knight down there.

Or maybe it's rapists all the way down.

[ZidanReign]

the hiatus hell returns

sasuga miura

[Elf]

If Caska is going to run back to Griffith, I'm gonna be so pissed.

[2Bad]

There's no way.

[Elthanes]

I like the parallel between the Eclipse and the eye of the Beast of Darkness.
