Man, one of the worst elements of growing older is seeing not only people close to you pass on, but icons too. I discovered Berserk in the 90's and for a fictional piece, it was so different and intense that it really defined my interest in fantasy years after. He told a story about endurance and persevering no matter what -- something we'll all keep striving to do. You and Nujabes defined a lot of my early years. Rest in peace, Miura.
"you're going to be alright. You just stumbled over a stone in the road. It means nothing. Your goal lies far beyond this. Doesn't it? I'm sure you will overcome this. You'll walk again, soon." -Guts
Never forget what Miura did. He made a series about a man suffering one of the most notoriously shitty lives any human being could endure, and let it unfold into that same man learning to heal. To trust in others and learn to love again in a broken cruel world. Never forget Kentaro Miura
Reading his death shook me in a weird way, my grandfather passed away s couple months earlier as well as my cousin in a car crash, what a terrible year its been
me too man, i dont even see a faint bit of light on the horizon so why the fuck do i keep going forwards? Im so tired but I keep fucking going, but well make it out of this right? Together, weve got brothers around the world going through this shit, so we fucking go forward because if there comes a day where the sun shines down on us and we can finally smile then it'll have all been worth
Keep on struggling. Light will come. I was at my darkest point a while back and now I'm in a more hopeful place. Dark experiences increase our empathy and sensitivity toward others
They say a man has two deaths. One when his breath leaves his body, and a second when his name is uttered for last time. Rest in peace, great legend. May we never let Kentaro Miura’s second death come.
There's actually 3 deaths, it's a Mexican superstition, a pretty cool one. The first death is the realization of your own mortality and that you will eventually die. The second is actually dying, and finding your resting place. The third is when your name is uttered for a final time.
RIP Kentaro Miura, one of the best mangaka I had the pleasure of reading his work This is what it sounds like at 3am when all your homies are offline and you're still awake
"Alright, I'll do it properly." - Kouji Mori pledged to the fans of Berserk that he will do his best to finish what Kentaro Miura started. It may not be perfect, and not everyone will be satisfied, but at least we can honor the dedication of his best friend to attempt the impossible. Give Guts' story the closure it deserves Mori.
I honestly just wanna slap people like Ricker, did to Griffith, for complaining over quality when it could have just been left unfinished if they wanna be ungrateful, plus after seeing the new chapters it’s in worthy hands it looks like nothing has changed because his skill is god level too.
@@joshshrum2764 Right?! Of course the art isn't gonna be the same. Miura is a master of his craft. A true phenomenon. You only get one of those. Like you only get one Beethoven
Thus the torch will be passed on. As we, the fans, hope the flame will ease into extinguishing peacefully. Even after the original bearer has struggled until death. The story we have followed for decades will remain in our hearts forever, even after it is officially over. We can only stand by watching this flame carry on towards its final destination. I will always support Berserk. May we keep struggling. R.I.P Kentaro Miura and good luck Kouji Mori.
Better better yet, when you're the class clown to cheer people up but ultimately its destroying your relationships with friends and family and youre slowly drifting apart but if you stop people will think something is wrong so you have to continue.
"Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster... for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you." - Friedrich Nietzsche
Dude man, which cheap-ass therapist you seein? Shit goes for $1000 to $2000 where I'm at. Cuz I dunno I ain't no expert, but sometimes I still feel like curling up in a ball with no more food, no more water, no more breathing, and just die. Be honest, am I being ripped off?
John Doe Gotta find the right one and meds can help but you probably need insurance for all that shit. I’ll tell you personally that if you can slowly fox your diet and exercise you can reduce depression a lot. Try a water fast or one meal a day and start lifting if you don’t already. Also make small changes to your life. Start with something simple like your room or a pile of papers, whatever. Something you can do that you would do and then give yourself a small reward for success. Sometimes you gotta treat yourself like a little kid you’re responsible for. Would you curl up in a depressive state if you have some little kid to watch? Imagine you are also that kid and take care of yourself ;)
If you feel depressed, or hate yourself and feel the love of someone else is going to fix that then you are wrong, the problem to fix that is to love yourself and that comes with accepting yourself, so love yourself and love others, and keep on struggling, life will get better I promise and don’t forget you are not alone in this world, there are many other strugglers right there with you
"Dad, why is my sister named Rose?" "Because your mother loves roses." "Oh, thanks dad!" "No problem, Berserk - Theme of Guts (Cut & Looped for One Hour) "
I don’t mean to sound cringe or anything but comment sections like this are legit a safe space. Reading through all them puts into perspective that everyone is battling something and whatever it is I hope you come out of it stronger. If berserk has taught me anything it’s that no matter what happens in life you gotta keep pressing forward and achieve something bigger than yourself. I love y’all and wish for nothing but the best.
BERSERK fandom is the only fandom where I seek peace , i can share any problem or any thoughts with least bit of hesitation as i know my fella brothers won't act like some randoms who would judge me for this , here i've met people who can help without being corny or superior, yes there are some retarded parts in this fandom as well but we have to push through it.
When I was an edgy 14 year old I didn't quite grasp the deeper themes of the story, but thankfully as i matured i realized how much better it is, the themes, the characters, and the overall message it brings, it's not just big man swings big sword....it's about a man struggling through life and finding better ways of overcoming his problems rather than lashing out. To this day I'm extremely grateful for Miura for giving us a masterpiece, this story has made me a better person progressively as I grew older, he will always be my favorite author and role model, I will continue to struggle through my problems and hopefully succeed thanks to him and his epic.
I am in the same boat. My dog passed this week. I'm not an emotional man, But God damn it. I think about my dog and it's pretty much instant tears. I sobbed for that little girl when I learned of her passing. When she left, she took part of my heart with her. I just hope I did enough right by her that she will be happy to see me when I too leave this world. Will she still sprint towards me and jump into my arms, wagging her tail fast enough to make her butt look like a helicopter? Will she want to lick my face still and give me her idea of a bath in licks? Will she let me rub her belly and cuddle with me? One of my favorite things about her, is idk when she picked up on this, but sometime after having her, she learned that headbutting was a sign of affection. So there would be lots of times where she would jump on the bed to come over to me while I watched anime or played a video game and she would just shove her face into mine and she would hold it there, pressing her muzzle against my nose and forehead for like 10 seconds. Sometimes it hurt but I loved it, cause it was so random. She was a pretty big dog, weighing over 50 pounds so her headbutt wasn't light. Now, all I have is my pictures of us cuddling and a few videos of me playing with her and the time I gave her a piece of cheesecake. I dont want those, I'd rather have her snores and snorts when she slept, her growls when we played, her warmth when we cuddled, and her whining when she couldn't be within reach of me. Pictures and videos won't ever replace those memories. But at least I have them because now it's all I have. You guys think she loved me as much as I loved her? That I was a good daddy to her? I hope that when I pass into the afterlife, that she will be there, laying down and when she sees me, she will raise her head as if to think about what she's looking at. Then I would go to my knees and open my arms and yell out "come here Xena Mutt!" And watch as she sprints towards me, tongue flapping in the process as I have seen a thousand times before.
@4ourfour thanks friend. I miss that little girl so much, your words are like salve to me. I hope you too have peace and good fortune in your life and endeavors
I love how there’s people in the comments being nostalgic or sad over things that are happening, and then the next comment is just “I don’t want to be horny anymore 😔”
Towards the end of 2019 I was in the darkest place I've ever been mentally. I remember I stumbled upon this piece through a song sampling it and thought it sounded beautiful. In the end I have to admit, this video specifically kept me going. Listening to this emotional piece and then reading thru all the comments people had left helped to keep me grounded and not in a constant dissociative state. Now coming back to this nearly 2 years later it's reminded me of the hardships I've been through and made me appreciate I'm stronger than my darkest days, weeks or even months. Thanks to this song and everyone who commented I'm still here today. Thank you.
“You’re going to be all right. You just stumbled over a stone in the road. It means nothing. Your goal lies far beyond this. Doesn’t it? I’m sure you’ll overcome this. You’ll walk again… soon.” - Guts rest in piece, kentaro miura
the most saddest thing is that, on 6th may (when miura died) was my birthday. and I got a gift from one of my relatives and they got me the first 6 volumes of berserk because I really like dark fantasy. While I was reading the manga that day, I was enjoying it and smiling but what I didn't know that the author of the book I was reading was suffering in excruciating pain. and that saddens me......a lot. It is very hard for us......the manga community...that we lost a legend............but we have to keep moving forward and we have to forget the past now. because if we don't forget the past, it is gonna sadden us even more.
@@nerium9762 I don’t think it’s forgetting. I think it is moving forward. Forgetting feels wrong, but not letting the past weigh us down and remembering the ones who helped make us who we are in the present is right. He’s changed us all.
I've realized this song and the story of Gut's trials is more relevant to my own journey through life than I ever thought possible. I'm struggling, fellas. Goddamn am I struggling.
@@roberdelss you will make it friend, I believe in that. I don't need to know your story, I only need to know you're struggling. We all are, I am struggling at this very moment, but that won't stop me. It won't stop you. You'll get through it soon, you just have to get up. You will make it, you will eventually. I'm proud that you're here, so make me proud some more will ya
I never read Berserk, but i know just how large its influence was and how much it meant to so many. Rest in peace Kentaro Miura, I hope he knew just how special of a story he made
If you don't have the time to read the manga, I can't recommend watching the original 1997 anime highly enough. You can watch it for free right here on RU-vid ru-vid.com/group/PLD85eRe7NELF7EFIl4YMQOxFw_3S7LNaR Especially if you are ever going through a difficult time in your life, it can be life altering. Just make sure you give it a few episodes before you give up on it. I think it isn't until like episode 7 that this song even appears, but it's at that point that it becomes apparent that this series is much deeper than your typical action anime.
Definitely give it a read if you haven't by now. I can't suggest or recommend any sort of an online Manga Dex or anything like that, and I wouldn't suggest searching for that. But I really recommend buying it and supporting Miura's estate and his hard work. It's incredible.
@@mochyeas5266 Deep down, yes. But the entire story's purpose is to illustrate how he's trying to move away from that kind of life because it's deeply affecting his ability to care for those around him, which in his eyes is more important than any battle. He would prefer to be happy than to fight. That's just a fact.
Funny, read this in the middle of a workout. This is my soundtrack today. This track fills me with resolve and lets me think. Almost for a meditative session vs rage/anger fueled.
Weird, I was listening to this theme and started reflecting on my own life. The struggle of finding a work and leisure lifestyle balance. The loss of family and friends that have passed. The endless pursuit of social acceptance, and yet also how at the end we are consumed by the loneliness that drives it. Life passes in each blink. We must appreciate each moment, so that they last a little longer. Rest easy, my friend.
Lost both of my parents and I’m not even 30 years old. Don’t honestly know if I want to keep struggling through this existence. I know Guts is just a character but I really respect him. His character gives inspiration to all of us who are lost and feel agony and despair. I’ll try to keep struggling as much as I can. Thank you Muira 🙏🏾
Amen brother and i wish you well that one day things will turn brighter and better for you, i come from a complex past myself living paycheck to paycheck now hit with expensive rent and stuck abroad. Having hope that things will become better one day serves as a important driving force that helps you get by through another day.
I've lost both my parents in my early 30s. It never stops hurting but it gets better. Capitalize on the time you have before, find peace, find opportunity. Do something each day to improve and build consistency. Consistency will deliver monumental shifts.
His masterpiece was too big to be called a manga. Too big, too thick, too heavy, and too rough, it was more like a large hunk of ART. R.I.P Kentaro Miura.
In the bright side... 1. Casca regain her memory. 2. Guts loves Casca more than taking revenge on Griffith. 3. Their party is in the safest place on earth right now. I hope this masterpiece will one day finish by a successor.
Kentaro Mirua was a man who single handedly created one of the best fantasy stories there is. His dedication to writing and illustrating Berserk (albeit his stubbornness when it came to getting a team to help hindered progress greatly.) just shows that he himself pushed everything he had within him to their greatest limit. With it we saw such beautiful pieces and a tragic tale of perseverance and love. Guts himself is the embodiment of what it means to keep on going on life, no matter how bad this cruel and uncaring world wants to eat you. If there is an after life for good people, I hope Dr. Mirura is finally letting himself rest. If there is a god Kentaro, tell him to leave us alone. RIP.
my friend was a major fan of berserk but after his wife left him and his mom's death he took his own life. the night that it happened was my birthday i called him in the morning and he said that he would come and see me but he never came i decided to go check up on him i had a key to his house for emergencies i walked in his room to see that he overdosed. i listen to this song and remember when he was still alive
Though I've never actually watched or read Berserk it's indirectly had a massive impact on me. 2 of my favourite game series' Devil May Cry and Dark Souls were so heavily inspired by it. Thank you Miura.
Let us all support Mori-sensei and the entire Studio Gaga (Miura's assistants) who will give their best to bring us the ending of this incredible story, as faithfully as possible. They will face the greatest criticism, trying to be the closest possible to one of the greatest mangaka of all time. They know better than anyone how hard the task is, but they will try. We are with you, thank you And RIP Miura-sensei
Thats because guts isnt some generic "tough guy." hes skilled sure, but thats not what his strength comes from. hes trying to find himself and everywhere hes been he hasnt found it. its been forced upon him. All the fighting hes done is because its the one thing he was taught. everything else hes done on his own, no help from anyone. he feels he has no purpose, and must search for one daily. But hes changed since then. once again hes forced to fight for his life daily, as well as cascas. hes trying to get justice too, to kill griffith. I feel like he wont do it though. it seems a bit dumb for someone as deep as him to search for revenge instead of living his life in peace. The scen in the cherry tree garden where he says he never thought he would be able to sleep peacefully again made me cry. hes been fighting every day of his life, all 24 hours. everything is against him. all he has is the will to live. but now casca is back, and i think that this story has a good ending coming.
This honestly may sound cringe but I highly look up to Guts, whenever I'm down I remember what Guts always does, he gets back up and fights harder no matter how hard life shits on him he doesn't let it slow him down he keeps fighting and honestly I love that. I truly hope whatever we're all going through we continue and push harder for what we want.
Everything you said wasn't cringe at all. Others might think so but the ones who try or rather do their best like yourself to be the better version of themselves, are ahead in life.
How ironic a man who’s lived a life of battle and rage seeks nothing more than to live for tomorrow despite what might come his way and knowing how bizarre the story of BERSERK is this soundtrack almost sound like a lullaby . A reaffirmation that everything’s going to be alright. Guts isn’t a hero or anti hero, he’s human, a struggler, a flawed man, a deeply hurt one.
To all of us who have gathered here today at the news of Miura’s passing, let us not forget the most important thing he taught us. Don’t give up, even when all the forces of hell are against you don’t ever lose hope or give into despair. Keep on living and fight for a better day.
@@eeveryone9951 You truly do not realize how weak you are. Your brain does not work like a bicep, it doesn't grow stronger under pressure. True mental fortitude is acknowledging your emotions and acting accordingly. If you are sad, you give yourself time to reflect on the situation and, if you're sad enough to cry, you shouldn't feel ashamed in doing it. If you suppress your emotions, they will fade, and you will feel empty.
Yeah you’ve got to remember he was raped by a man as a child, and was at his lowest twice in his life, first time fleeing from his adaptive dad gamebeno, and being all alone, then after the eclipse just him, and a literal brainfucked Casca, though Guts’s, hardships is what keeps me going because none of us will experience something like the eclipse.
I wanted to meet him after i become a mangaka on the same level as him. I wanted to thank him for giving something for my mom loved to read too me while i read bleach
"He died doing what he wanted, no matter what, right? I bet he was 𝘏𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺." - Guts RIP to Miura, he created a modern masterpiece that touched so many lives.
I know it's late to say anything now but the passing of kentaro miura really hit me at first I thought it was a sick joke but then I soon realized he died I didnt know him personally but I feel like I did thru his work when I was 16 I was in a dark place I was angry at the world and i felt like nothing really mattered I didn't have any friends or close relatives who I could talk to I felt like their was no future for me at some point I stumbled on berserk I thought I should try to take my mind off of my own life after reading berserk something changed seeing guts struggle day by day alone fighting demons till he can't even lift his sword made me think I've never truly lived seeing him grow from a young angry kid to the man he is today made me think maybe I could change as well it made me think that I could be better and grow to be someone who could live in this world even if I am alone for the rest of my life berserk helped me change my life for the better it helped me realize that we human beings need to struggle in order to grow and to become stronger as a human being and that we need to keep pushing forward no matter what obstacles are in our way it helped me to become a better man and it only took one man to help me figure that out berserk will always be held in a special place in my heart thank you kentaro miura for changing my life I'll keep struggling day by day even if it hurt like hell I'll smile and face the obstacles before me may u rest in peace kentaro miura and thank you
Sometimes we cause our own pain, try to figure out what's wrong, but when we find the answer, we don't accept what it is, and we create more obstacles to ourselves, thus making the path more difficult, but in the end what you always needed is to never be held by what anyone thinks and be ourselves, then we finally come to realise that being held by chains is bad, and we let ourselves free, then we achieve the true meaning of life, accepting ourselves for what we are, and then we achieve true happiness and freedom...
Hearing this made me tear up, I’m so tired man. Because I was really badly sick it made me lose the chance to say my final goodbye to some really good friends of mine. It hurts, I’ll never see them again. Life is gonna be really lonely without them, but even still I will persevere no matter how tired I am. No matter what I will keep fighting. If for nothing else but to keep on living. And if my friends are reading this, I miss you, I hope your doing great. Don’t ever succumb to a fate you don’t want. Goodbye
The most powerful song in Berserk isn't loud and bombastic with hard rock and riffs, it's quite and contemplative. It mirrors the entire series, in a way.
i love it. because at the end of the day, it isn't about the action, or the demon slaying. it's about the growth of the characters and their desire to find purpose and become great in a world that doesn't give a shit about them.
To everyone who has left a comment detailing their own struggles and fights to surmount impossible odds, thank you, stories and words such as yours are what keep us together as humanity, they're what bind us and keep us moving forward. To those who are freshly reading these comments, keep fighting please, keep struggling and keep pushing forward, Berserk has been an influence on millions of people and we have Miura to thank for that. No matter what just keep moving forward, the struggles of yesterday will be the fruits of tomorrow.
This masterpiece creates flashbacks .. of a calm day after a costly battle - I've never fought .. of curing and resting wounds - I've never had to suffer .. of waving goodbye to comrades in arms - I've never met .. of a time when living wasn't taken for granted - I've never lived in -- Waking up only to resume a twilight sleep of spending eternity without purpose.
I come back to this every few weeks… really just hits the feels and helps calm me down life can be brutal and stressful and sometimes down right evil but we just have to remember there always light at the end of the tunnel. Stay strong fellow strugglers
I walked away from that light for it was my brother's purpose as for me? It was as if i was his dark counterpart...He and i are for whatever reason polar opposites. He is the positivity of our family and i am its negativity as if we were meant to be born as one being but somewhere along the process we were divided in two...is that weird?
@@Dogmaguy74 not weird at all … just remember even though we hold the darker parts of life in our hearts we can still do good. Life’s never going to be one sided good or evil. It’s just a dark place that has the light shine in from time to time because that’s what makes life special… I understand what you mean by being the dark side of your family. Just remember to keep fighting for family and what’s right.
@@toxmedic29 Thank you so much...By dark side i meant that my brother holds the smiles and happiness of our family while i keep the tears and its sorrow.
This song makes me feel things I can't really explain. It's like the first time I heard it, something inside of me had a conversation with it and it has just stuck with me since then. I feel like it really well captures the deep pain and longing that Guts carries with him. His burden and his guilt, and I think that burden is something many can relate to. Maybe that's why this song instantly felt like a part of me, maybe it is because it speaks to the hardships that so many face. It makes me want to keep moving forward if only to see tomorrow. Keep on struggling, fellow Strugglers.
It's the combination of the sides of one's self-the shadow and the light. Guts lets these two sides mingle and be one, not blinding his light side with a dream and falling into the shadow in times of hardship. He always operates in the new gray area where he can be not perfect, but whole.
@@francescofulghieri9608 Wow that was seriously well put, man! I completely agree. I think moving forward with that wholeness and not necessarily perfection is what makes Guts so compelling and inspiring. Guts is just so authentically Guts.
This song hits especially hard now. Though the story will never be concluded, that doesn't change the fact that Berserk will "live on." Generation after generation will read it, and generation after generation will tell of its greatness. Berserk is fucking immortal. Rest in peace, Miura.
@Jonathan Chiarkas Kentaro Miura is the only person in the entire world who will make berserk a great series. there is no one who can carry on his work. if someone else continues the series, berserk will be completed ruined.
@@nerium9762 I agree with you but I'm pretty sure his assistants will finish chapter 364 and maybe more depending on story boards, it won't be the same at all but I could see them doing that
@Jonathan Chiarkas I know, we all do. But this is just one of those unfortunate things in life. The only thing I wouldn't mind is if that after some time, they release any notes Miura had left to provide some sense of closure. It's a long shot, but one can hope. And one can struggle.
The first soothing part feels like life inside the watery womb of creation. Then bursting out into the drama of this physical world with the second part welcoming you into a such a beautiful hell.
I’ve been listening to this for 3-4 years now and let me tell you I never had a bad rest playing this at night. It’s just so beautiful, every aspect of this. Honestly hard to put into words of how much I love this song but I’ve told my family and friends before that if I die one day to play this at my funeral
Im happy to say that Eldin Ring help me find Berserk. I played Souls games a little before Eldin Ring, but never finished any until now. I see a lot of long time fans constantly screaming that Berserk is awesome and that I should read it. Well I'm proud to say that I am a part of a new wave of fans enjoying this manga :) In short, fuck the Golden Age for being so good :(
Glad to see more Souls fans discovering Berserk! I highly HIGHLY recommend watching the original 1997 Berserk anime, where this song is from. It isn't 100% faithful to the manga so you will not have to deal with any spoilers, but it is ABSOLUTELY worth watching in its own right (as long as you go into it not expecting a 1 to 1 recreation of the manga). This song creates the perfect atmosphere and comes in at the most perfect of times that it really adds weight to the struggles and revelations Guts experiences.
Berserk found me at a very dark time in my life. I had been estranged from an abusive single parent, was juggling 50+ hours a week at a job I hated, and trying to get through school. I was friendless, lonely, and constantly miserable. Seeing Guts' struggles and his unwavering willingness to continue to struggle had such an indescribable impact on me, and there is nothing I could do to repay that. I wish now that I had sent a letter, or something, to thank Miura for his help. Now his struggle is over. I hope that he's found peace.
I had the same story too! Was struggling under pressure in college from my abusive parents. Just yesterday I had a feeling to continue reading berserk, and it was along chapters 222-226, when guts gets his armor against Grunbeld. It found me in a dark place and here I am getting my diploma with my head held high. Thank you to Miura, may he rest in peace.
It's nice to see that people are coming back to a place like this to pay their respects to someone so important to them. I just finished Berserk last night and found out about Miura's passing when I was about half way through. This theme always resonated with me in the show and it hit so much harder after learning of Miura's death. I feel like with the way people are acting towards this situation, Kentaro Miura was almost like the Japanese Stan Lee. It's nice to see someone's work get recognized and become so strongly loved by so many people. R.I.P. Miura Kentaro
I think it’s important we remember to think about ourselves every once in a while, now more than ever. Please take care of yourself. I’ll be honest: the pain may never leave but it will become bearable, and you stronger for it. I hope one day we can all find peace inside ourselves. I am sorry that you feel like this right now, but just like Guts said you are going to be alright. Your goal lies far beyond this. Just this week a fellow student took his own life at my high school, this was followed by 2 other students over the weekend who were part of the 8 victims at the Travis Scott concert. Needless to say it has been a rough week. Please do not kill yourself. No matter how desperate a situation, Guts would always fight on because it was all he knew. If anything, we can learn this from him: choose life, it’s not your time to die until it is. “Your goal lies far beyond this doesn’t it? I’m sure you’ll walk again, soon...” Take it easy everyone.
R.I.P Kentaro Miura. Your impact on the world will truly be felt for generations to come. I can only use Guts' theme as a source of comfort after receiving the news.
It’s so touching to see that Miura’s work meant so much to so many, myself included. It’s nice to know you’re not alone. Feel whatever you have to feel in the moment everyone, but never forget: Guts never gave up, even after all he faced. You can get through this, and you are never alone in your struggles.
It's all right. It's like stumbling on a rock on the roadside. It's petty...a small thing. The place you want to go...is more distant farther off. So...it's all right. You'll stand up. And you'll start walking. Soon...
Avange Marvel May the Force be with you, Miura Sama. She went back to the source from which we all escaped. That's my favorite Guts phrase: resist to the end.
Continue on. Even in the face of absolute tragedy. That is the gift he gave us, more than anything else. Rest in peace, Kentaro Miura. There will not be another quite like you.
True. But the guy sparkled a fire within many of us... In the end, that old Fox will be remembered for ages to come. His story and art will inspire generations. His wisdom and Will shall live on and nourish us. And we will all come together as we do today, around this bornfire of dreams, presenting or final respect to his legacy and his name... And though we bare a Brand of pain and mourn... we shall remember, and be happy, that we went on this journey. May he rest now... A rest well deserved. Sayonara, Kentaro-san. Thank you for all you created.
"You’re now the party leader" Edit: I can’t believe it. I’m not mad, sad that the story probably won’t end I’m just feeling empty because it feels like a part of me was taken. I‘ve only been reading Berserk for 6 months and Sensei Miuras work already had such a impact on me. Rest In Piece Kentaro Miura you will be missed.
If the manga ever gets a new anime adaptation, I really hope they will use this song. At least once. It just fits with Guts and the Berserk world so perfectly.
Truly one of a kind in the realm of manga. A man whose literary prowess was as incredible as his draftsmanship. An irredeemable loss to the world. Rest In Peace, Kentaro Miura.
