Griffith wouldn't have lasted ONE night being a sacrifice. Not that he isn't strong but DEX weapons are just shit. The only way Guts is able to survive is because he's a STR fag.
are the berserk movies worth watching after seeing the 1997 TV series?
>>344724201
This is actually what happens with Orangutans. There's either orangutans that are small enough and fast enough to get away with raping female organutans or ones bigger than everyone else and can just claim what they want.
>>344726174
>>344723939
But Guts is STR and DEX.
Guts is BOTH str and dex
>>344723939
The real question is talented Mormon, or useless nigger?
>>344724035
STR slays the demon
DEX are the real demons.................
Why do physical characters get to choose between str or dex but magical characters only get int?
Why isn't there INT or xxx?
And don't fucking say charisma... Maybe wisdom if we are going traditional dnd.
>>344726575
wow .......... really makes you think ......
>>344726229
If you've seen the tv series, you've basically seen the movies. It's just a copy paste into 2 hour segments rather than 20 minutes at a time. Nothing worth watching IMO.
>want to try all playstyles
>can't stand being slow
>never able to see STR playthroughs to the end
>always wind up playing DEX
STR is objectively correct. DEX is better than STR if the DEX guy never makes a mistake, but it's impossible to never make any mistakes.
That's why Guts beats Griffith.
>>344726174
If anything Nintendo is Guts and Sony is Griffith these days.
>>344726421
>FAI vs STR
>>344726335
He's STR and CON. His speed literally just comes from his insane strength, not from light weight or dexterity.
>>344726421
From that prospective the hoop looks taller than it really is. It's short af.
>>344726724
Guts beat Griffith because he was straight better than him
>>344726335
>>344726356
You are what your weapon is. The dragonslayer is all STR baby.

>MAG vs STR
STR = Alpha with Zeus aesthetics who swings massive fucking two-handers while skull fucking all living things in his way. That's also nearly invincible since STR adds more hp usually.
DEX = sneaky faggot Jew, stealing from others enjoying the cucking the STR alphas give em.
>>344726870
I don't trust niggers, even the smart ones who can use computers.
>>344727027
And here we see the low IQ of STRfags showing itself in full force. Note the baseless delusion and juvenile language full of swearing and memes, because the STRfag is incapable of independent or original thoughts.
>>344723939LUK
>>344726724
>>344726843
Guts won the duel because his plot sword never breaks like everyone else's does. Griffith is superior.
>>344727027
well said brother well said
>>344727258
ahhhh you must be an INT dick sucking fag who needs "mana" to survive
>>344723939
high INT low WIS casters
>>344727439
See how even when confronted with the information, the STRfag is still completely incapable of saying anything original and just compulsively insulting others. Like an ape in a zoo that's learned to imitate human actions.
>>344727283
this
INT+CHA vs STR+DEX
INT because "directly next to the enemies" is not the place I want my usual glass cannon character to be.

>>344726335
This. He's all but WIS and CHA
>>344723939
Okay okay, but seriously, I just saw the first two episodes of that shitty anime, so does guts get a massive power up early in the manga, or is that anime very different from the manga?
I saw /v/ discussions where guts was put on the level of luffy, star platinum, and even saitama, but he literally got tired out from fighting some primped knights, and then stabbed himself in the neck on some chick's outstretched sword. I can't believe this shit
Yes, yes.
But would you fuck Griffith?
>>344723939
Griffith did nothing wrong, daily reminder.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ak_jATqoRc
>STRfags can't even get off a boat
>>344728084
That's really fucking retarded. Why the fuck do they do that?
He should just be a guy who runs really fast and maybe he can perceive the world in slow motion.
There's no fucking need to basically make him God.
>>344727434
>Faggy little saber can't take a direct hit from a sword the size of a small tree
Who would have thought?
>>344727434
What happens when Griffith sacrifices everyone?
>>344728310
He is already super strong. He sustained a serious injury because he let his emotions get the best of him when the possessed little girl was trying to stab him. He also has to fight for his life every night because he's cursed and night spirits haunt him constantly. He was at like 25% power when he took on those knights and he passed out while he was trying to kill the bitch.
This new anime doesn't start at the beginning, it starts after the first major arc. Earlier in the story, Guts kills literally 100 soldiers by himself.
>>344728504
>Meanwhile, DEXfags are backstabbing filth
I'll take my boat, thank you.
is it worth reading berserk as souls fan? i know the guy who did a lot of work on the souls lore is a huge fan, but it seems really long
>>344728310
power level shitposting should be an automatic ban
>>344728693
it's really long, but it's really good. It definitely has a certain feel to it that most people end up loving after a while.
>>344728161
The coolest and strongest and smartest character is always PC.
Skull Knight is PC.
>>344727434
That just proves STR is better. Guts has the strength to wield an unbreakable hulking metal slab, Griffith is a pussy who has to wield a fragile babbyblade
>>344728538
Flash's speed is different every story. Sometimes he's like what you said, other times hes overpowered as fuck

FUCK YOU
>STR or DEX
Weapons with superior range proving throughout history that DEX and STR fags have it all wrong.
STR wins 9 times out of 10. As someone said DEX would work if the guy never made any mistakes, but that's not how actual fights go. The bigger stronger dude is likely to win by sheer strength and endurance.
>>344728310
In the manga he gets captured by the fagknights immediately after fighting a demon apostle that flew around at Mach 2, barely lived through the fight, got covered in rotting baby guts, and lit a forest fire
They didn't show this part in the anime so instead he somehow got injured while fighting the 10 skeletons that he absolutely destroyed
But yes he does get a pretty strong powerup later on
Just read the fucking manga
you mean dex/int or quality
guts is more quality than strength with how fast and precise he swings his big sword
>>344728392
Griffith got his Good End. Good for him.

>>344728504
>DEXfags get slapped
>>344728310
The anime cut the very height of Guts being stressed out and he was injured severely. It doesn't even make sense how Farnese took him out in the anime but it makes perfect sense in the manga.

>>344728392

>>344729654
I just fucking hate how they didn't at least start after Rosine was defeated and he said his goodbye to that little girl. The anime's intro would have been perfect if they covered at least Guts walking through the forest dismissing the first appearance of his inner demon while being absolutely covered in blood.
Guts was pretty much about to die before Puck showed up which would have been a good introduction to that character too. And it would have made episode 2's fight actually make sense.

Kissmanga also has a bunch of prelude chapters from the creator's early days. What's the correct starting point for the series? Cause now I'm not sure where I should be starting (granted, I only read a few pages each).
>>344734284
i believe guts fucking the demon is the correct start to the manga
>>344734284
The Mangasee one is the right start of the manga
The war thing might be the start of the Golden Age arc, which is after the Black Swordsman arc
>>344734284
>What's the correct starting point for the series? Cause now I'm not sure where I should be starting
Chronologically the arcs go
Golden Age >Black Swordsman > Lost Children > Conviction > Millenium Falcon > Fantasia
but you should just start at Chapter 1. Ignore the anime, and what everybody else says. Just read it. Do it for yourself.
>>344734284
Mangasee one is correct, kissmanga starts with the prototype, what miura originally planned a shonen type Berserk to be
>>344727434
His sword is fucking huge and he swings it with inhuman strength. Griffith's shitty little "Catch and cut through" technique that seems to be the only thing he knows how to do can't stand up to that kind of sudden impact.
Then he decided to reverse his own momentum almost instantaneously so he didn't cleave Griffith in half because he's a nice guy.

I'd imagine Griffith would do fine
>>344735214
This is just embarrassing.
>>344735414
Serpico is DEX and INT. HE wouldn't last in an even duel. He nearly died when he put himself in a room full of pillars because STR.
>>344735414
serpico is INT dex
>>344727434
>>344735278
He also breaks Godo's supreme human killing sword that could cut through an anvil. And he changed swords in the golden age arc, at least in the anime. Haven't read the manga in a while so I don't recall if that was canon or not.
>>344735414

>>344735813
Round 2 he couldn't have won because of the law of causality. Round 1 he was ace and spades best swordsman in midland.
>>344735682
Obviously. Guts has mile-thick plot armor, but at least he'd get a few jumps in or something before he got mulched
>>344726723
I love being STR in Souls games at least. There's something amazingly satisfying about two-handing a giant fucking sword but keeping my character light enough to fast roll around, so that battles in PvE are a shitload of dodging until a window of opportunity appears for an R2 from hell.
I don't like chipping away at something's health in little increments.
>>344735553
I just read the Golden Age manga. He goes through several bigass swords.
>>344727434
>his plot sword never breaks
Doesn't it get broken when he's attacking that one fortress? There was no way Griffith could win without killing or maiming Guts, anyway, which would defeat the point of him fighting Guts in the first place.
>>344723939
DEX+INT is the best combo
>Oh you're pure DEX? Too bad, lightning is faster.

>>344727027
>>344727027
>That's also nearly invincible since STR adds more hp usually
I love this aspect of it. It irritates me in games when STR doesn't up your durability. The stronger you get, the more protective muscle you're building around your squishy parts, and the harder that muscle fiber becomes. You can also strengthen your tendons (much fucking slower and more carefully), which makes them more difficult to tear, and even your cartilage (through tearing it; cartilage is tougher after it heals, but I think it's more brittle).
Dex is more of a "fine touch" spec. I've never thought of it as being speed. It's literally dexterity, how good you are with your hands. In that sense, Guts is a complete Quality build, possessing amazing STR and the DEX of a master swordsman. Not only can he use the Dragonslayer, but he can wield it with the fine touch of a reasonably sized, normal weapon. If Guts didn't have amazing DEX, he wouldn't have the coordination to block super-fast tentacle whipping and shit like he does.
>>344736415
Thanks.
>>344735376
I've played all of them and they take some inspiration from Berserk but they're nothing alike outside of the art. From's artists are just hacks for the most part, that's all.
Spellsword but instead of a sword I prefer a mace and a tower shield.
So would that be Int/End or Int/Str?

The movies actually cut out more (arguably nonessential) material than the 97 adaptation did. Do with that information whatever you will.

>>344736663
The movies cut out Black Swordsman arc entirely, a lot of the Gambino shit, why Guts has severe intimacy issues, pretty much all of him bonding with the Band and getting over being a lone wolf, and the poo in loos
97 anime pretty much just cut out Skull Knight, Puck, and the Count

>is it worth reading berserk as souls fan?
No, it's worth reading because it's fucking great. Forget about fucking Souls, goddamn. I approached it as a long time fan of Robert E. Howard's Conan stories, and it doesn't disappoint. Definitely sword and sorcery fiction in the same vein as Conan. The whole manga is the same kinds of scenes that Frank Frazetta loved to paint for Conan, with a lot of 80's horror design thrown in for good measure.
I didn't expect the reference to Army of Darkness when Guts got his cannon arm.
>>344736663
>arguably nonessential
I don't think anyone would argue that cutting some exposition like Griffith and Guts frolicking naked, the bonfire of dreams, the talk before Guts' sudden departure from the Hawks, andWyaldmade the movies better off. Not to mention Guts' backstory.
It makes sense how they cut it since they were only paid for 3 movies but the trilogy would have been infinitely better as a series of 4.
>>344736603

>>344726174
Guts was going to die, dude. He got saved by Skull Knight. Did you not watch/read the whole thing? Guts fought off, what, 50 demons? Out of about literally 1 million+? Considering the rate of his dismemberment (an eye, an arm, probably much more mentally) his body would have eroded away after a couple hours.
>>344729072
Did they not include the moth loli Apostle in the anime? I just got done with that story and it was fucking great. I think I'll watch the Golden Age anime that people keep recommending, because I read almost the entirety of it today and couldn't stop scrolling.

Oh sweet Jesus. It looks like some car commercial CGI.
>>344736603
I mean, all of the Golden Age heroes in Kingdom Come got powerups.

Mangasee is also seemingly the only site that just lets me scroll through a chapter at a time. I hate having to click through.
What's the best edition to actually buy? Preferably the one that has the least changes made for localization purposes, with the most faithful translation.
>>344727434
Or because it's a massive, thick piece of reinforced steel that is designed to be unbreakable
Also the original sword was broken in that critical fight. Zodd saved Guts by throwing his sword at him
>>344737350
Missing Arm
>Replaced with better prosthetic version

The only point you could make as far as I can think of is the increased aging; but again I don't really think that's hampered him at all
>>344737385
Isn't that from the armor though?
>>344737552
You don't need perfect depth perception when you have eight feet of iron reach to feel it out with.
did they change artist in the last chapter? it looks too clean

>>344730880
I kind of, sort of, just maybe sympathized with Griffith at the moment of the Eclipse. Not when he was asshurt that Guts beat him and left, not when he went full retard and dicked down the princess. But after his year of torture, everything they did to him, having his tendons clipped, tongue removed, probably never going to be able to even lift a fucking spoon to your mouth again, and having to remember it all...I sort of got why he'd go through with sacrificing the whole Band of the Hawk if for no other reason than to get his body back. Although, really, and I say this with no edge intended, he should have just killed himself rather than fucking over the hawks.
>>344737606
Did you even read the manga? The armor just lets the hellhound loose.
>>344737606
Nah, Inner Beast has been a thing since way back
>>344737185
>I'm not saying I hate the series or anything, but he's been taken to the brink of death god knows how many times with little to no side-effects
Yeah but he isn't the only one. Every major fighter in this manga has inhuman endurance, agility and strength. And realism isn't important in this story anyway.
Guts would probably have a ton of debilitating injuries by now (severed tendons, broken bones etc) but it doesn't matter because it's Berserk.
>>344737613
I was referring more to him throwing shit and landing those perfect jumps mid-combat
>>344737619
Again, isn't this the armor and not his past?
>>344737621
Alright, so he lost his sense of taste then. Still seems pretty minor
>>344737465
The sound that I heard in my head when I saw that panel can and will never be accurately recreated in an anime. This niggas art illicits some god-tier headcanon sound design.
>>344737887
The only perfect jumps he's landing is in the berzerk armor which is magic.
Would it be wrong to watch the animes first before reading the books?
>>344738003
Yes
>>344728268
>guts
>not wise and charismatic
how do you explain his harem following him around all the fucking time
>>344737832
Yeah, and I'm cool with that. But saying he doesn't have any sort of plot armor is pretty far fetched
Also aside from that failure knight he kicked the shit out of like 3 times, I can't think of anybody who has taken near as much punishment as Guts and come back from it. (inb4 griffith)
>>344728538
That's what happens when you have a dozen writers who want their power-level character to be the best that ever was.
>>344737315
That's...fucking godawful. The monster designs are one of the best things about the manga, so they don't include it in the anime? Brilliant.

Feel free to name something I missed though, this is pretty fun
>>344729253
>that happy corpse
>>344727434
Guts is using this sword because his old one broke. It's almost like you're imagining he had the Dragonslayer in this fight.
He out skilled Griffith here on top of being stronger and obviously having longer reach. He turns his swing as they clash to prevent the deflection Griffith is going for.
>>344736068
Well yeah, he realizes in the panel right before this that he'll likely kill Guts when the pressure of Guts' swing alters his aim, and he decides fuck it I'll have him or he'll die
>>344738585

The reason why I said "arguably nonessential" is because they did end up cutting those parts while leaving the main story up to the Eclipse mostly intact.
Studios cutting the "nonessential" portions is why I really only truly recommend reading the manga. They keep cutting stuff out of the anime/video adaptations. I instantly dropped Berserk 2016 when I heard they cut Black Swordsman and Lost Children.

Also, some of the religious buildings (in vritannis I believe?) look exactly like ds3's anor londo. Berserk also has wheel skeletons. I'd say the general theme of medieval western stuff done by japanese is what give both such a similar feel.

I have a feeling that I'm missing something in the movies. People talk about the relationship between Guts and Casca as something interesting but in the movies it's presented in a way where the romance is just a bunch of PS3 games.
Probably gonna get into the mangos I guess.
I need a crop of the "HOW VULGAR" bit from Schierke, anybody know when it pops up?
Been reading through again trying to find it
Got this though
>>344737401
Damn, haven't seen anyone mention Hikaru in forever, espicially that picture.
>>344740467
It's not good in the manga, either. The only interesting relationship is between Griffith and Guts.
>>344740483
I think when they're in a tavern? I don't know what you're talking about but I remember some banter then.
>>344740467
>>344740916
Guts and Casca's relationship is covered much more thoroughly than Griffith and Guts'. It actually is a love story far more than a story of revenge.
>>344741057

>>344741210
Off the top of my head.

griffith talks to guts but guts never opened up to griffith. not nearly as interesting as the tsunyan relationship of the commanders.
>>344741057
Guts and Casca have an absolutely barebones relationship. There's nothing romantic about it at all. With Griffith they cover their friendship and go out of their way to show how much Guts means to Griffith, and the result of what happens when Guts tries to leave. It doesn't just begin and end with revenge. With Casca there's one sex scene and literally nothing else.
>>344736408

It's fine Arino, at least we'll get to see Guts slaughter a bunch of children and Rosine in glorious animation one day... right? right?
>>344741795
That's what you should be telling the other guy. Casca and Guts have nothing more than fucking between them. With Griffith there's actual camaraderie and companionship. Even Judeau is closer to Guts than Casca.

Sorry were the hardened battle commanders supposed to have a picnic and drink tea? More happens post-eclipse but I'm sure you remember all that.
Also it should be said that Casca loves Griffith just as much as Guts which adds more to the drama.

Guts' whole meaning of existence is that he constantly pushes himself in battle to find his limits, that's why Griffith liked him from the moment he laid eyes on him.
You retard.
>>344742327
And he didn't really get mad in battle until the demons showed up.
>>344741954
pretty early to say they're straight up out even if the episode is some amount of OC for the anime.
We've not seen it yet so it's hard to say what has been cut, even if it's probable, it's still an assumption
>>344741726
This is because Berserk upholds the ancient concept that true love can only exist between men.

Guts is one of those bullshit characters made up by 'that kid' who has 20s across the board. He'd throw a temper tantrum if the DM didn't let his original character donut steel into the game but the DM is all like oh yeah, well now your character was born out of a corpse, raped by a big black man as a child, betrayed and cuckolded by his best friend, his son is a mutant creature that haunts him and every night he's attacked by demon's and ghosts.

There's a sceneon the boatwhere Guts is staring off at something and realizes he's having a hard time seeing normally. His vision is heavily blurred and dark. It's a callback to what the witch who gave him the armor said about losing his senses, the more he fights with the armor's power.

So, she still liked him for 90% of her adult life, and she still cared for him even when he was a cripple.
>>344738836
Well, sometimes it isn't....
>>344749701
Can't really compare that because this is how stories grow. Guts grows stronger, his peers need to be kind of equal so they are stronger too. Serpico could kill the shit out of the snake baron for example.

What really bothers me is that he used his dagger while he clearly has throwing knives... they're throwing knives man what else do you carry them around for
>>344749784
And I'm fine with that. Serpico is a skilled and intelligent fighter, and he is armed with a magic weapon. To say that Griffith has a chance against him is silly.
>>344728310
Guts is powerfull because he's been fighting wars with a bigger sword than he was tall since he was 9. That's why he can wield the dragonslayer. Also since he was branded he's half a step outside the reason of man, so he is still a normal human but he can interact (kill) otherworldy beings.
Saitama is a cheap ass written story, at least guts has a basis for being strong. Saitama is stronger than anyone in his world because he does 100 pushups squats sittups and runs 10km a day? Cool story bro
>>344750029
The magic weapon upgrade isn't fair though. It's either Griffith vs Serpico or Femto vs magic weapon Serpico then
>>344750121
One Punch Man is a fucking parody. He's supposed to have a dumb reason for being strong, it's his curse.

>>344750151
It's part of his standard arsenal, I'd say it's fair. But okay, even with a normal weapon Serpico is a better fighter. Griffith's only notable feat is beating a young Guts, that's it. Then he got BTFO in one movie by a pre-prime Guts. Serpico held his own against a much stronger version of Guts.

Yes, Serpico managing to hold his own against some unholy demonspawn in a series where hordes of soldiers are regularly mowed down by the guy is extremely impressive.
>>344750313
That's true. I don't get where tje whole Griffith thing came from anyway. We've seen like one battle where he wins against a rookie Guts. He was never a brilliant fighter in the first place, he's a tactician and good general for an army. The Hawks were just idolizing him.
>>344750404
How you work the shaft and hold you fondle the balls, different stats.
>>344750313
Serpico uses his enviroment. If it's one on one against griffith he would lose. Also magic weapons isnt standard because he didnt use it against guts
>>344750483
This. Griffith is just stupidly charismatic. Guts did all the heavy lifting in their battles.
Easy
Fucking
Peacy
>>344750630
>Serpico uses his enviroment.
Yeah, he's intelligent, he's going to use that intelligence against an opponent. I don't get where this "Griffith is a great fighter" meme came from. He was humiliated by Guts before Guts was even close to his prime, meanwhile Serpico managed to last much longer against a stronger version of him. There's just no room for comparison.
>>344750659
It's also causality that keeps him alive. He has more bs luck stat than Guts. If Foss didn't meet with him in the hallway Griffith would be dead for example.

Humiliated because it was one on one. He defeated guts the first time but at that time guts was unbeatable on the battlefield. He killed bazuso but got defeated from one strike from griffith.

Are you trolling? The Guts that Griffith defeated and the Guts that Serpico fought are two different beasts. The former was just a strong boy, the latter is a demonslaying monster.
Griffith has no good battle feats, prove me wrong.

He killed a guy that killed 30people. Serpico never won against guts. Surviving get you gold medals right. Also guts wasnt even fighting with everything he got. He was serious but he could shoot serpico. Also serpico couldn't do anything against guts except for dodging.
I hate griffith as much as anyone else but be realistic

ProTip: Look for the name tag.
>>344751396
If you were being realistic you'd be able to understand that a guy who got BTFO by Guts before his prime would lose to the guy who held his own for a few minutes against Prime Guts.
I mean, this isn't complicated. They're both dexfags and they both fought the same opponent, we can scale their abilities from that.
>>344726846
But even in Dark Souls it's quality.

So faster than most rapiers, being swung around at a hundred miles per hour?
Guts was a ninja with a greatsword. And probably not human, the overpowered fuck.

>>344750769
Griffith's duels against Guts were fair 1v1 honoraburu duels. Of course he could have defeated or even killed Guts if he decided to give him a handicap.
>>344752217
But he wouldn't because that would be beneath him. Griffith's pride is what fucked him over.
>>344752217
No. Griffith got destroyed in one move by a much weaker Guts.
Serpico is a much more experienced fighter than Guts, he fights demons and monsters all the time, Griffith has only ever fought men (and Zodd that one time).
Why don't you guys go ahead and catch up without me?

>>344728268
>"Maybe If I kill a few of them they'll calm down."
>>344752380
That's an awkward pose and figure.
>>344751667
You just keep saying he fought guts before his prime but you forget that guts was still superhuman then. Dodging and losing the moment you lose your advantage isnt the definition of a skilled fighter to me
>>344752364
Serpico never killed a single demon without the use of magic
>>344752460
how so?

>>344752707
The point is that Serpico performed better against a stronger version of Guts. There's no debating that. Griffith has no combat feats. This is a fact.
>>344752776
And Griffith never killed or even fought any demons so my point stands.

Griffith might've had talent but Serpico utilised everything he could. In a 1 on 1 duel on flat terrain, Serpico might've lost to Griffith if the latter didn't underestimate the former... but as more factors are added to the fight, Serpico's odds rise. Griffith at the time of his first duel with Guts was surprised by his improvisation, something Serpico is very skilled at as well. The second fight ended with a single swing, something Griffith gambled on, but ultimately lost. Technique isn't the most important aspect of a fight, it's just one of the factors that determine its outcome, as Griffith's emotional instability evidently impacted him.
Again, Serpico holds his own against a guy who beats Zodd in a straight swordfight. I'd actually go and say it's borderline impossible as a regular human to match Guts, even including the numerous factors and conditions. The fact that Serpico doesn't crumble within the first 10 seconds is a testament to his incredibly skill.
So what is the gimmick of falconia. Mass sacrifice ? Demons feeding on people?
