The manga keeps getting better from vol 3 onwards
This is why I can't recommend it to anyone who isn't super die-hard about the series, unless they can read Japanese. The color illustrations are exactly the same as the ones that were included in the dark horse volumes (and there's so few in the guidebook) and the rest is just snippets from the manga and a ton of text. If I hadn't ordered Ash Crow with it, I'd feel buyer's remorse for sure.
The feeling when you know this is true and the rights holder for this IP is not interested in getting this into people's hand.
I just checked their site and my local store has, at least, the first volume. The books being sealed has nothing to do with B&N, that's how they're received from the publisher. I believe all 18+ manga usually is shrinkwrapped. I know Viz's Battle Royale volumes were.
I legit got the epic chills when I saw the last picture of the most recent chapter.
Two years on the boat, or spent on the island? Because if it's the latter, I've only read the dark horse volumes, so I'm not at Elf hell yet.
I thought Griffith was two years older than Guts and Casca.
Wasn't Guts like 12 when he met Griffith? There were grown ass men in the Band of the Hawk looking to a 12 year old for guidance?
The timeline as I understood it, Griffith was 14 when he started the band of the hawk and Guts joined 3 years later.
This actually makes sense, but them dudes were really devoted to a teenager then. Wasn't Corkus like late 20's or something? He seemed like he actually lived a bit of a life well before he got into the band. Griffith must have bailed him out of some rock bottom shit.
Ok thank you for this. It's always been a bit hard for me to place the age of the cast. I always felt that Griffith was the oldest though. He just seemed the most mature, until well you peek behind the curtain and find out how rash the guy can be. So Guts is like currently 21 and he's got a bunch of gray hairs?Just for the record, Guts was 15 when he first joined The Band of the Hawk. Personally, I think he did look about 15 when he first bumped into Griffith, but the English dub for both the anime and the movies throws you off. His voice was far too deep for just a 15 year old. Never in my life have I heard a 15 year old sound quite like that.
Don't worry, you will have the Berserk 2017 anime to keep you warm.
"You like rape right? So we're going to throw this catatonic rape victims tits in your face." It really is low brow as fuck.
I'm not saying it makes no sense. More of just saying that Guts has had one fucked up journey in a short amount of time.
Guts nutted, but the Berserker Armor still sucking. I think Isidro commented on it cause that shit drained his ass.
It may not be the worst thing but the assassination of Julius and subsequent 'accidental' murder of Adonis is a moment that struck me as the first time Guts' recklessness let to him doing something truly evil.
