Before Schierke you still have Guts, Puck, Isidro, Farnese and Serpico

It was a JRPG party before Schierke. She just gave everyone some use while also introducing magic to a FANTASY world which was pretty overdue.

I mean, without Yuji a lto fo shit wouldn't have happened. Though, he didn't do shit but be annoying for majority of the time. He only set Shana straight on a path to power. Then accidentalled the Snake and became god tier.

Still upset Thousand Changes died for almost no reason. He could have just went to the new world with everyone else like it never even happened.

Fixed that for you. The endless quest for Casca which nobody has given a single shit about for years would have actually killed the manga if Schierke wasn't around to keep things interesting.
>>
>>143896741
Berserk's like an unnaproachably attractive girl. Nobody feels comfortable r34ing it because they know their art would just look bad compared to Miura's. Just look at the impossible standards people have for Berserk anime.

Yuji is part of a trend of that time. You had an interesting character or many, but the focus was all on the boring relatable(?) guy.
Instead of making an action anime about Shana kicking those alien or whatever they were asses, we got the puberty dramas of that little shit.

>>
>>143896894
Obviously the industry is different than it was in 1997, for whatever reason studios don't seem to be able to produce the kind of art quality they used to.

An adaptation has to choose between being a slideshow with good art or going CG and actually having animation for the huge amount of combat in the series.

>>
>>143897358
The 1997 series had its fair share of stills, but it was fine when needed.

They could've given berserk to tons of different studios.

Everything adapted by Ufotable looks pretty good.

Despite the meme that Madhouse is dead, they still make adaptations with high quality.

Even Bones, for fucks sake.

Schierke is great and all but frankly I doubt anyone who associates with Guts to the end will be able to get a happy ending.
>>
>>143897771
The setting and plot were very clear.
Miura is changed.
Now he want to draw cute girls and comedy. He simply lost interest in this manga. And the readers with him. That is all.
Readers kept defending it no matter what in memory of the past glory, but as chapters goes by and Miura keep sinkening in moe and shonenshit the realization that this once masterpiece is turning into a shitpiece cannot be denied no matter the fanboyism.

He should've ended berserk 10 years ago and made a different manga about a dark fantasy harem then.
>>
>>143898301
He changed after Lost Children then and the Conviction arc was the downfall of the manga. The introduction of the prostitute girl and those other girls was a prelude to everything you guys hate.
>>
>>143898082
They're directly obscuring key points in the action with huge blotches of featureless color, most likely intentionally because the underlying actual animation isn't very good to begin with. It's just a modern example of the classical shortcuts around doing actual animation.
>>
>>143898176
Betrayed by best friend, comrades killed, girlfriend NTR'd, lost arm and eye.
Well shit he was angry. And that's the problem now. Guts without rage is like a pornstar without dick. having to nurse Caska and with this inner beast bullshit the author literally castrated both him and the story. He have destroyed everything he built at the beginning, and what every reader were waiting for years to return. He gave us the beatifull lost childrens arc to raise our hopes up, and make us scream "yes, the black swordman is back! Finally!" and then he slowly destroyed them.

Berserk is meant to be a dark fantasy though. The main draw of the story used to be seeing a lone wanderer slaying demons on a quest for revenge, killing anyone in his way. Guts is now surrounded by kids and hasn't killed a single human since the Conviction arc.

What pisses me off the most is that yes, the manga was edgy. Guts was extremely edgy in the count arc. But he still had those moments where you could tell there was a human being under that madness. From the very beginning without having seen Golden Age you could tell he was a victim who HAD to be mad in order to survive in the mad world he was in, he had no other choice. If he didn't let the rage and madness fuel him he simply wouldn't survive. The struggle was real, and golden age only made it better since the characters were so beautifully fleshed out and the climax was incredible. We could really feel his pain and sympathize to what he had become

now we have a stereotypical shonen protagonist with a band of comedy reliefs. I wish the manga would've ended ages ago

This desu.

Compared to other mecha teen protags, Shinji is not even that bad, seriously.
>>
>>143898945

You can't stay mad forever, Casca is not sane yet but she's safe at his side, he has a group of people he can trust, he's getting tired of just being pissed at things and just starting to accept that shit happens to him.
>>
>>143895856
Schierke is like the spiritual guide for Guts and the party. She's needed to help bring him back from insanity as well.
>>
>>143898852
Berserk is meant to be whatever the fuck Miura wants it to be.
>>
>>143898652
Yes, and it looks great. Literally nothing wrong with taking a shortcut if it works. What's awful is being cheap with an awful result, like Berserk 2016.
>>
>>143896510
If you take out all the shit you just mentioned. Then it would literally be a generic fucking God eater Rom com.
How are you going to write a western Dark age setting, War Dark fantasy story without rape, Deep emotions, and ACTUAL REALISM!
It's like if I wrote a world war 2 Japanese perspective novel without including the Raping of nankin. It just breaks the immersion.
>>
>>143898852
>The main draw of the story used to be seeing a lone wanderer slaying demons on a quest for revenge,

No that's what made people want to stay and read, so he can eventually achieve his vengeance along with curing his lover. The main draw was the Golden Age arc and his pace from his hard work of going from a lowly mercenary to a Knight.

Miura intended for this manga to be a fantasy manga of his own vision and has shown that by constantly changing settings and Guts mentality. He's not the first mangaka to diverge from his original idea.

>>143899615

It's not shit, he keeps it fresh by changing the manga ever so slightly as time goes on.

Edgy Guts served his purpose at the start, but his time is gone, after that the manga spent a lot of time showing how fragile Guts really is, that the tough guy act was just a front.

If Berserk was just mindless blood and edgyness, I sure as fuck would've dropped it.
