Reading the lyrics I have come to a realization that this is literally a prayer for Guts. Such powerful words that resonate with all of us to some degree.
Simply Without Berserk There is no Dark Souls Thank you Kentaro Miura Rest in Peace. Both Berserk and Dark Souls are both Dark,Cruel and Unforgiving Worlds
The irony, Guts hated the concept of "god" all his life, but this song is a plead or prayer to a "god" to watch over and protect him from his cruel destiny. Guts is basically Friedrich Nietzche on steroids. 😅
Spot on ! As a religious person, initially I thought Berserk is pretty atheistic. But as I read on...... I realized berserk has even more deeper and complex understanding of God and metaphysics as a whole. The way the mangaka explored God, Fate, Destiny etc. is so good. Respect to sensei Muira. The man was so wise.
@@bhuvan_357_5 True. But I don't take these things to heart. I just explore interesting ideas just because they are interesting, nothing else. My guiding philosophy in life and main inspiration is still always Islam. Islam doesn't prohibit studying or exploring any ideas. It encourages.
@@reralt Really Islam? I Come for Hinduism background but don't have any strong faith. I believe in reality and facts, Physics and its laws. I do think that Stories in whatever religion do hold some meaning. Jordan Peterson kind of conveyed it. What is real, what is not. And the Beauty of nature But still am interested how people get interested in Religion as a whole... (There is a lot of controversy regarding Islam. I don't have any guilt let's say discussing such issues and I don't believe in this religion vs that. To be fair we don't know shit about anything, so better shut up and learn)
@@humorgabbon3406 Yeah . Its hard to get into the core Ideas of Islam now a days with the media constantly bashing it. You have to look past all the media brainwash. Are you familiar with thinkers like Rene Guenon ? He has excellent writings on Hinduism that you may like. I follow his views. Islam in its core talks about one God and Him guiding humanity with prophets and messengers. He sent thousands of Prophets. Islam didn't just start in 600 AD. We believe just sacrificing your will to one God only is Islam. That one God has many names. Yahweh, Elohim, Hashem, Brahma, Vagwan etc. Budhdha may have been a prophet, Hinduism in its conception or any other religion today started with this belief in one true God. But it got corrupted over time. Islam invites to that old pure primordial religion of humanity. Submission to the creator of universe. And believing in his messenger of your time. I would have followed Moses, Jesus if I was during their time. But its the time of Muhammad ﷺ. Whether he was a true prophet or not its up to you to analyze. You should read a biography of his. This large scale view of humanity and its purpose is why I am a Muslim. Religions are the most interesting things on earth. Gives life meaning. You should always study them fairly as long as you are alive.
Someone who can write the sadistics of the world, someone who can realize the lost beats of older times, someone who can create a mystical, unknown, and interesting atmosphere, someone who can transcribe the emotional, logical, and hidden meanings of literature, that someone is he himself, Susumu Hirasawa.
Here is some facts, guts is also called indra (heaven gods), while the asura is the demons. It comes from Indian mythology and brought to Japan, I'm proud to be an Indian brother
@@thewanderingstruggler8601 only the name is from the Kushan clan, other characteristics are from different eras and different parts of India. Ganishka's floating palace, for example, is shaped like a typical South Indian temple.
@@raghavraghuvanshi4999 Empires aren't built on kidness but yes they weren't evil. Kushan Empire in Berserk is a mix of different eras and parts of India and their cultures. It's a fun mix and even in the manga we've seen that Kushans aren't evil, just as any other humans. Hell I'm glad that sorcerer grandpa survived it was surprising to see him again and in such a place too.
Thanks for your knowledge, kind Indian brother. Venezuelan here - this is unrelated but I just want to say that chicken tikka masala is one of my staple foods, personally. Stay safe out there, struggler.
Omg, the transition at 03:11 is so freaking good, thank you for this. Masterpiece of a song (all of susumu hirasawa's songs) and manga. Can't (ever) get enough of this!!
Indra = God of Thunder , Thunder symbolises punishment, destruction, negativity,loss of ignorance (avidya) .here guts is equivalent to indra cause he is punishing evil spirits.
@@zuraorokamono204 there's a line in lyrics "who swings his sword in the nothingness" . I am pretty sure prayer is for guts. "You are denied even a night of prayer" who has lost beautiful nights of sleep because of constant haunting? Only Guts.
just as amazing as Hai Yo, something about the Hai Yo video made me cry but i was working out at the time, adrenaline and seeing children suffer hurts me.
Man, I keep coming back to this video time after time throughout the years. You picked a lot of good panels from the lost children ark and matched it up to the song perfectly. Could gush about those awesome strained vocals from Hirasawa too but, everyone already knows what's up with that. Low key this is a favorite of mine on RU-vid. Well done, well done.
Indra Susumu Hirasawa Indra Tempos atrás, num passado distante, eles decaíram Trilhos do filósofo, rio glorioso Até os anjos descansam na escuridão Levante-se inreagível e bloqueie o caminho Ouve? A silenciosa voz que te chama? Alcança? Agarrando-se no ninho da ignorância? Enfurece-te, ó, INDRA Com raiva que derrete pedras Abrace a criança da escuridão Que empunha a espada da insignificância! Continuam escondendo-se, não vistos até em sonhos Flores douradas, canções de Shangri-La Você negou até uma noite de oração As correntezas do tempo sempre te levam adiante Ouve? A silenciosa voz que te chama? Atravessará? Bebendo da água deste rio impuro? Enfurece-te, ó, INDRA Com raiva que derrete pedras Abrace a criança da escuridão Que empunha a espada da insignificância! Proteja-o, ó, INDRA Esta ignorante criança E por um breve momento Puna estas estradas de fúria!
This video is very beautiful, love the editing you've done and hopefully we can all struggle and live beautiful lives no matter all the sorrows of the world that try to consume us.
Интересный факт - Индра это индийский бог грома, покровитель воинов, борец со злом и творческая сила, разрушающая мрак и хаос. Индра, - это Ментальная Энергия, освобожденная от ограничений омрачённого сознания. Именно этот просветленный Разум творит совершенные формы мысли и действия, не искаженные ложностью чувств. И довольно символично, что Гатс является таким же воином, уничтожая воплощения Идеи зла. И если в мире Берсерка существуют силы по мимо Идеи зла, то подобный Индре наверняка бы стал покровителем Чёрного мечника.
