>>143073420

I'm a little confused. Are you saying Shinji has suffered more just because he's a kid? Because half of the shit listed happened to Guts when he was a kid.
>>
>>143073446
But Lancer voices Guts.
>>
>>143073420
>>143073382
>>143073360
The only differences between Guts and Shinji are that Shinji wasn't raped. They still share a lot of essentials.
>abandoned by father figures
>dead mother
>forced into a fight that wasn't theirs
>waifu suffers and/or hates him
>>
>>143073463
the only possible thing that MIGHT give Shinji the advantage in this is that he wasn't born into this life and had it thrust upon him and was pulled out of school and has this enormous pressure. Whereas for Guts, suffering is almost the norm at this point, or was. But yeah Guts definitely had a harder life.

>>143073515
Are you saying rape is a minor thing?

>>143073515
They even have white haired homosexuals that betray them.
>>
>>143073599
No, but it doesn't really shift the scale from "close in suffering" to "not even close" when the other parts of the list are shit like "have the fate of the world resting in your hands".
>>
>>143073515
are we just listing the childhood of them cause I guess that kind of arguably evens it out. Or are we leaving out the most traumatizing part of Guts past with the eclipse and watching his men slaughtered in front of him in the most brutal way possible while being betrayed by his best friend and is forever haunted by evil spirits?

I agree in a sense, while I love Guts you could argue someone like Sasuke or Itachi suffered more than him and they're both AWFUL characters in comparison. It isn't just the suffering that makes Guts compelling but how he deals with it too.
>>
>>143073411
Not sure who he is but based off of stuff I've seen on /a/, guy from texhnolize?

>>143073701
yknow, I didn't really think along this line while making this thread but I think you're right. Suffering isn't really something you can put on a scale and any attempt just makes the participants seem either petty or trying to feed their go.

Thanks for making me feel bad about my own thread, asshole.
>>
>>143073838
The thread is fine. I mean you can talk about characters who have suffered and how they deal with it. I just think "SHINJI HASNT SUFFERED AS MUCH AS GUTS" is goofy.
>>
>>143073782
Yes, it's Ichise from Texhnolyze.
And yes, don't watch the series if you are not ready for suffering.
>>
>>143073838
there's nothing wrong with this question anon it's just that sometimes it becomes a dick measuring contest like MY PAIN IS FAR GREATER THAN YOURS, at times. A character suffering isn't enough, it's how they respond and react to their plight is what makes them great. If Guts became a whiny self pitying fag, he'd be a lot worse of a character.

An example of great characterization for Guts is that he doesn't even feel anger at Gambino and remembers him fondly, victims of abuse, unfortunately don't even realize they were abused.
>>
>>143073119
I thought Griffith did see Guts as a friend, which was why he could use him to become the god thing.

Like he had to sacrifice what he loved most and he legitimately saw Guts as a friend and equal.
>>
I love Berserk, probably my favorite manga. Inb4 CAN YOU FEEL THE EDGE MR KRABS.

That said; probably Brook from One Piece.

Seen his entire crew killed slowly by poison, no way to stop it. Died himself.

Spent 50 years on a boat, alone.

Though we like to think physical is the worst pain, it's fleeting and passing. Guts has more emotional pain then physical suffering, kind of like brook.

So in the end I actually don't really know who got it worse.
>>
>>143074065
>Brook from One Piece.
One Piece characters have good backstories that fit with the kind of live a pirate would have, I give you that.

>>143074065
I think Oda is constantly trying to top his own suffering for new strawhat members.

>My friend was murdered by stairs
>My dad abandoned me and my mom died
>My entire village is enslaved by fish peoples and I was lived 12 years a map slave to try and free them
>I ate a leg
>My entire island died
>I was hit by a train
>I died a slow painful death

Next Strawhat was continously tortured for 8 years and had his wife and kids leave him for a World Nobel (cucking on 4chan is worse than death, you know)
>>
>>143073975
Griffith didn't see anyone as an actual friend. They were his possessions to use to further his ambition. Guts realizing Griffith was using him is what caused him to leave and in their fight Griffith basically lost it when he could no longer control Guts.
>>
>>143074256
Knowing Oda the new nakama probably wasn't cucked, his wife had to pretend or something, she ends dying revealing the truth to him, happy/sad ending its what Oda loves.
>>
>>143074353
At the end Griffith had friends, else he wouldn't be able to sacrifice people and become Femto.

Brook spend 30+ years of his life doing what he loved. He sailed with his crew and went on adventures and enjoyed life. Sure it ended badly for him and his crew, but that is the case for many who chase what they want in life.

Robin's is much worse than Brook's.
>never knew her parents
>was raised by family that despised her
>had no friends
>makes her first friend only to later watch him die to save her
>meets her mother for the first time only to see her leave her again to go die rather than come with her
>all the people she meets in the library die

Forgot to add
>had to watch her home and island be completely destroyed
>was only a child when all this happened unlike Brook who was in his 30s.
>>
>>143074604
he lived in a comfy home with a loving mother his hole life. Cant even come close. None one who actually read Berzerk could make this comparison.
>>
>>143074610
While I agree to a point there is a reason solitary confinement is largely regarded as cruel and unusual punishment in most countries.

You can't suffer more then what you yourself will do to yourself while being alone.

Though to be honest it was a toss up for me between Robin and Brook, so I don't disagree with you entirely, I just find brook got a little bit of an upper hand.

Has the band of the hawk as his new family and closest friends to hold himself together

>his best friend doesn't even see him as a friend instead of a pawn

This degrades so quick to the point where it almost doesn't matter after the first year and grifith just deludes himself to think he's 'using him'

>best friend goes crazy because he didn't give him the d and sacrifices all of their friends so he can become a falcon god
>waifu becomes retarded and hates him no matter how much he protects here

Shit, thats probably the worst part, but he at least gets another familia to keep himself together

I've a feeling the moral of this story is just gonna be that family and friends will carry you through whatever suffering you go through, even if they betray you. If Miura actually gets around to finishing his story, he's gonna pull a 'star wars vi' on us all, and it's gonna be great.

at least guts has and can make solid friends unlike the rest of /a/

I'm pretty sure that's the point of brook honestly.

There is no biological function ongoing within him, and it was explained at long as his body isn't destroyed he's fine. Bone's don't really decay, at least not in normal conditions.
>>
>>143075118
In fact I had a shitty theory at one point that Brook might be the narrator, or at the ending might go several hundred years into the future to show the Straw Hats fixed the world, with the only one being alive being brook obviously telling the tale to future generations.

One Piece is fairly decent,but you have to be prepared for the shit ton of chapters and for the slow start it has in the begining.

Plus the fact that the everything culminated in the best arc, Marineford, which no arc has really gotten close to.

If you want to read the manga, read the coloured chapters, they're coloured up until about chapters 600-700 or so..
>>
>>143075951
Yes. Don't bother with the anime UNLESS there is a very specific scene you want to watch.

Like most ongoing shows it unfortunately has pacing ruined in the anime completely. Think DBZ where a single panel in a manga for "powering up" is now 2 episodes in the fucking show.

Manga is awesome, between Berserk and One Piece both tie for number 1 in my book.

Little silly at first, and it's the only show I know to be completely serious, with good comedy, godlike world building, and makes you care about characters.

Fair warning though: Starts out really silly, in fact that's why most people that don't like it, don't read or watch it. Give it a chance till around Episode 60, or Chapter 100.

If you must watch the anime, read the wiki on filler and SKIP THE FUCKING FILLER.

Probably one of the most epic parts.

World nobels are kings of kings, they aren't special but even touching them will bring your demise. They can't even breathe commoners air because it might taint them.

The characters in One Piece even MC are basically powerless at this moment. It really feels like you're on an adventure, and the MC's don't feel overpowered. Sometimes they beat people stronger then them, ONLY BECAUSE they find the persons weakness and even then just only.

The show focuses on many characters, and feels insanely real in universe.
>>
>>143076465
That's one good thing about One Piece is how the strawhats didn't just jump up in power out of nowhere. If they were in another shounen, after the timeskip they would have been able to beat admirals instantly.

Even though I know they will win, every arc it feels like at any moment they can lose, and even have lost and been destroyed during saobody.

Guts made the right choice at the later chapters. Instead of going to wage a one man war against Griffith, he opted to restore Caska's sanity instead.

So he suffered less?

He's basically Guts but with an ending.
Cucked, betrayed, hunted, fought against all odds, made friends, died.

Sure, the story begins around volume 4 or so though. You should probably stop reading after the Golden Age arc. It's an amazing story.

Then just wait for Kentaro Miura to die and read the rest, it's better than waiting for 1 or 2 chapters a year.
>>
>>143087396
I started reading it a year ago and prior to that I've been told to get into the series for probably a decade straight by friends


It is very good but every now and then I actively make myself take breaks because of what I have heard about Miura's hiatuses

I can't even imagine the pain of some anons who waited 7 years for Guts to get off the boat.
>>
>>143073411
agreed anon. He's not suffered more than guts, but he's been through a lot of bad shit.

it was fucking crazy, probably the best fight I ever saw in an anime/manga

really wish Kentaro did more of this "gut's going full fucking insane mode and not respecting anything or anyone mode"
other than the early chapters, the eclipse with griffith and this fight he isn't take it that far. Those were the moments when the Berserk title suited the story the most, and the armor wasn't even been introduced yet.

>>143076710
Yes, that's not right. He can't have died a Virgin. He fucked at least twice in every route.

>>
>>143088020
Only when the author decided to include actual plot, when it was only about GRIMDARK despair it was quite good.

Also Kurono was a good character before he resurrected.
>>
>>143088389
So you're trying to argue when the author didn't give a fuck and threw nonsensical shit together it had better world building?
>>
>>143088402
Yes, that's literally what I said.

I think GantZ should've ended with Kurono's dead, nips love open unexplained endings so I don't know why is it not done more often in manga, a work like GantZ was never about the plot, it was about the gratuitous violence.

Im sorry but are you retarded? Guts character has gone trough alot more that defines and makes him more polished then fucking shinji.

>Abandoned by father figures
Okay now you're retarded, Guts adopted father actually took him in and pretended to care for him, raising him as a soldier and teaching him how to fight aswell as saving his sorry ass in the battlefield multiple times. Guts thought he loved him, even when Gambino(guts "father") Sold him for three silver coins he still trusted gambino. And in the end Gambino tried to fucking kill guts in his sleep...

Did Shinji father pretend to love Guts and teach alot of things about life and protecting him in battle, while also selling his boybutt to some nigger just to end up trying to kill his own son when hes sleeping?!?

No shinjis father did not, just because they are both orphans doesnt mean hes fucking shinji you retarded autistic fuck.

>Dead mother oh wow, that sure isnt a trope in alot books,comics,films and tv series.

>forced into a fight that wasnt theirs
Guts literally went into fighting as a kid because he was raised by a mercenary and thats the only thing he knew, i mean the mother who adapted him was the wife of the mercenary leader.

>waifu suffers and/or hates him

See you're retarded when you dont draw in the context, because unless the scenario of how x happend its not even in the slightest the same.

Shinji didnt have a fucking girlfriend, Guts did they fucking banged each other and loved each other. Just to what? his fucking best friend killing everyone he knows and rapes his girlfriend forcing him to watch. Infact he rapes her so fucking hard that she gets brainfucked because she wants to forget it.

And guts trying to prevent it cuts off his own fucking arm to get free from the demon whos biting into him. Just to get fucking pinned down on the floor and have a demon shove his finger into his eye. So yes fucking guts is totally shinji 10/10 /s

>>143088698
Casca's distrust of men following the demon dicking gave her reasoning to hate and fear Guts both immediately following the Eclipse and after he went Beast-mode on her in volume 23, but thanks to Farnese's influence in volume 33 she's back to being comfortable in his presence and acknowledging his protecting her like after he rescued her at the end of the Conviction arc.

Nobody ITT suffers more than this man.

The characters you are posting have dark backstories to varying degrees but end up being attractive, super strong, and have close ties with other people. At least they are cared about.

Meanwhile Kurosawa is treated like garbage by society, he never had a chance. His entire life is despair and regret.

I loved sabondy arc because you can see the entire credit trying so desperately hard to use the power of friendship to win and save each other from overwhelming power. They even get lucky and have one of the most powerful characters ever show up to give them a hand.

You can just see the despair dripping off their faces as they take turns sacrificing their life for each other or trying to buy that extra second to keep zero alive or risking their life taking that extra rumble ball to make sure no one else is hurt.

But in the end it's not enough.

I think Shinji kept himself safe by not getting too attached to world he lived in. Guts, on the other hand, had both close friends and a lover. He invested a lot in the life he led, emotionally speaking, so he had more to lose, which brought about more suffering.

It might be too much to ask for, but i hope Gut's crew ends up alright. He's finally forming bonds with people and it'll be painful to see his friends die again.

Shinji is what, 14? They've both been through hell but Guts has experienced much more suffering than Shinji has, 25+ years of living would do that.
