It's stated in Berserk fhat no man could wield the Dragonslayer bc of it's weight. I have a theory that if the Dragonslayer was made of a lighter metal, it could be wielded irl.

Agree/disagree?
>>
>>29770550
Uhhhhhhhhhh, yeah?

If it's lighter some people would wield it?

????
>>
I don't know, if it was made of a different metal it wouldn't be Dragonslayer.

Wait, why am I even talking about...fuck it.


No. Nobody could wield it.

The real question is, could the loli wield Guts's dick?
>>
>>29770550
Take your shitty thread and get the fuck off of /k/.
>>
>>29770592
No.

It's simply too thick, too coarse, and too rough.
>>
>>29770550
It's fantasy nonsense. Not even Guts could wield that if it actually were solid steel; meat and bones only ever take you so far.

Making it lighter would be pointless. I got hit with a (blunt) sword today and typing hurts my arm, so let me keep it short: I'd rather have a depleted uranium rapier than an aluminium dragonslayer.

Does this manga get better? I stopped reading after that faggot Griffon showed up and it just became about how the two of them are in love or some shit.

Nigga we talking about the Dragonslayer, a sword. A sword is a weapon. This is a weapon board. Ergo, this thread belongs here. Git ur head out of your ass son!
>>
>>29770631
Holy shit you stopped like 5 chapters in, yes it gets much much much better. Whatever you do, stick to the manga please dont watch the fucking anime or movies.(with the exception of the potentially great post-golden age arc anime coming out soon)
>>
>>29770550
Lol wtf, this looks like a rip off of Artorias
>>
>>29770631
Yes. It's a fantasy epic that gets better and better.
>>
>>29770661
This nigga baits are too stale, anybody who has read berserk knows that artorias is based off of guts.
>>
>>29770550
It's main issue is that it would be too unbalanced and unwieldy.

Youbjust reched the golden age arc, in my opinion it's pretty boring but it's still better than the butchered anime version of it.
>>
>>29770706
You aren't even trying.
>>
>>29770550
Your theory is that if Dragonslayer was lighter then it wouldn't weigh so much?
>>
>>29770652
I thought the anime wasn't so bad. Outside of skipping a big chunk of the black swordsmen arc I thought it covered the golden age arc just fine. I'm worried about the new anime coming out though, it's getting the same 3DCG treatment it did in the movies.
>>
>>29770550
Any specifications on its size?
>>
>>29770706
>baiting this hard
Here's your (you)
>>
>>29770731
In the manga, the Dragonslayer is made of metal and is fucking huge. It couldn't be wielded irl. However, if it was made of a lighter metal while retaining it's hugeness, I think it would be possible to wield since the main problem is the weight of the sword.
>>
>>29770550
It's immense weight is what makes it so powerful. If you have the strength to swing it anyone hit by it is going to get chopped in half.

>griffith was just the boss
>skipped tons of character building
>no emotional connection between guts and griffith
>muh 5 unnessecary dance scene
>skipped the assassins which were cool as fuck
>skipped the dude that has hands for feet and his gang of baddies
>majority of the movies is just win after win after win
I dont know man, they were a pretty poor representation of what berserk is.
Also the new anime looks more like the jojo intro style of cgi so maybe it will look nicer.
>>
>>29770793
>made of a lighter metal while retaining it's hugeness

To what purpose?
>>
>>29770870
I don't think you can slay a dragon with a small sword as well as a big sword at the same weight
>>
>>29770550

Yes, but it wouldn't be Dargonslayer, it would be a lighter copy.
>>
>>29770884
I'm no expert on dragons, but why would a bigger - not heavier, just bigger - sword work better on them?
>>
>>29770633
B-but retard (casca) is bout to be fixed. Not that that is going to stop Guts from fucking both of them
>>
>>29770870
Wouldn't you like to be able to wirld that bad boy?
>>
>>29770945
More surface area to hit son. Would you rather get shot with a .22lr, or a .50?
>>
>>29770810
Meh, from the trailer, it looked like garbage.
Am I still gonna watch it??? oh fucking course, its Berserk
I mean hey, it could turn out like Ajin's CGI

Just hole-punch the sword to reduce weight and extend the hilt to counterbalance the blade and provide better leverage for swings. It'd still be heavy as shit but at least a normal man would be able to swing it once.

you mean the apostle ape and his band of black dog mercs?

/a/ discussion of a fictional weapon and its show.

You have no intention of talking about weapons that exist in the real world.

That's not how swords work.

You were saying?

>>29771191
So did he hollow it out or is it ludicrously thin? Because no way in hell does that have the dimensions depicted above while being solid steel.
>>
>>29771153
Swords exist irl fucktard. We are theorizing if a fictional weapon could exist irl. And in case you didn't read the sticky it says all weapons welcome. Including fictional ones.

Yeah, just been a while since i read that part

It's thinner, i wouldn't say it's super thin because it's still hard as fuck for him to pick up

Lancelot had no problem

>>29771191
nah it's solid, no way to swing it, more just a balanced drop

Well lancelot didn't have a japanese comic book showing the weapon he used did he?
>>
>>29771226
That may be, but for some reason nobody ever used railway rails as melee weapons.
>>
>>29770550
Short answer is no.
Given the size and shape even it would still be unwieldy as fuck even when reducing the weight because the balance would be shit. At best you would get one swing, then you're screwed.
