What is the /lit/ equivalent to Berserk?

>> No.12001566

Mahabharata

>> No.12001585

Griffith always reminds me of Shiva, seriously. And the picture of him that shows up as soon as the end credits start reminds one of an icon of Shiva or Krishna. I always wonder if the artist was inspired by that source...

Daily reminder that Griffith did nothing wrong and that anything he did in the eclipse is justified as a means to an end (the End of History)

Does not exist but would be interesting if someone wanted to write a character like Guts. Would be extremely difficult to keep it engaging.

You poor fool

>> No.12002181

I am actually watching the series now, which is why i posted that. Its true ive not read the manga . Its because i dont want to read it online, though i do have a full time job so i guess its now time to sack up and order the ENG.

Has it been written by the same guy all this time? Or is the content creatively directed via a board of individuals selected by the company? i figure the artworks gotta come from a whole bunch of people working together
please enlighten me

Same guy and same artist for about 30 years now. Unlike Western comics the author is basically the auteur and since it’s a seinen manga the editors don’t really mess with the content to keep it PG-13 or anything

Hardly. Griffith considers everything a means to an end, even his becoming part of the godhand, he makes the fantastical world real so that it can be reached and culled. He will kill the other members of the godhand and the entity at the heart of reality that pulls the world's strings, that nothing will render his will anything but his own. He's the good guy all along.

Not that guy, but the 97 anime and also the movies. Someone will probably reply saying the movies are shit, but despite their flaws they are still extremely enjoyable and atmospheric.

The anime movies are okay but they don’t hold a candle to the manga. They’re best used as a supplement when you’re caught up to the latest chapter. I mean look at this shit, Miura is a fucking animal. It’s be a disservice not to read it.
