Imagine taking this armor off after a tough fight to take a bath and folding like a cardboard box because all your bones were broken and held together by the armor itself
Yeah but that’s if you’re strong enough physically to handle it in the first place. When guts first wore it and used it’s power it drained him so much that his hair started turning white. So not just anyone can wear it and survive, you have to be physically at your peak.
All of the berserker reader homies reading this knowing full well they know how the berserker armor works but still clicking the vid just to get to get that berserker armor hype because it's just that dope
The most Berserk artifact there could be. Anyone else would just give the character a power-up and say that it hurts a lot or shortens the lifespan of the user, but at least it instantly heals all the wounds suffered, but not Miura. Berserker armour is so brutal, and we've known Guts for so many years, we feel uncomfortable, seeing him break his body so sevearly, because the armour makes him feel no pain. Every impossible sword swing, every leap and every heavy landing, we can't see it, but we know that muscles are tearing, bones are shattering, and the black iron splinters make their way into Guts' body to keep him together, hurting him even more in the process. This is how you write dark fantasy.
Removing the armor was extremely painful for Guts. The armors teeth pierced him in so many places from his first fight that the armor stuck to him. The sheer amount of pain made him pass out only for him to reawakened by the pain.
what I like about this armor is how it’s drawbacks are actually significant and can’t be immediately solved with phoney power of friendship. It is kinda helped by it, but friendship ain’t fixing any bones in his body
The drawback that i can think of majorly is the fact after your vicious battle, all your wounds and broken bones will take effect. When guts first worn the armour, he was already heavily injured only to go all out again and sustaining bigger injuries ( Massive bleeding and broken his hands to the point of bending backwards). Once the battle was over and they escaped, the armour was stucked into him as it was lodged into his bones to keep him together which made him bleed for days. When the armour was removed, he was constantly fainting and reawakened from the tremendous pain which keep reopening his wounds. It must be a horrendous experience that even guts himself could faint multiple times from.
Do wanna point out that during Golden Age arc one of the first big arguments Casca and Guts had she called him "just like a wild dog" so kinda fitting he took that to heart and his own personal inner anger took that shape
@@the25th62 they definitely will, since new chapters are being made currently when it actually ends I can almost guarantee mappa(hopefully with no cgi) or some other studio will pick it up
No cuz the mask gives you cartoon like powers wich practically makes you a god the Berserk armor only makes your body ignore pain and fatigue allowing your full body to accesses its full potential/strength it does not grant you strength it just unlocks all the strength you have when your injured the armor just pierces metal spikes into your bones holding you together and does the same if to much blood is lost
@@lastassassin4443 perfect description of the berserker armor if us ordinary human donn the berserker armor we still cant do what gutts does with it.gatss sword swings are stronger that cannonballs only because hes already has monstrous strength to begin with
Cool thing is that the armour matches with the mental image of the user Like *Spoilers* When Skull knight wore the Armour during the summoning of previous Godhands and it Litreally match with his mental image as he was before Similarly Guts mental image or his malice is a Hound imaged so it changed into Hound looking Armour (that panel was cool in the manga like changing the armour according to his psyche)
There is also one other thing the only two people to use it are survivors of the eclipse amd skull knight is like he is because of the berserker armor and now his existence is soley to kill the godhand
Feel like the Wild dog form is terrifying because he show how much enrraged and determined he is to kill you and skull form is like a calm guy saying nothing but doing horrible things
I would like to thank you thus short is what got me into berserk and it is my favorite piece of media I have ever read or watched expect for 2016 and 2017 I hate those with a passion but thank you for getting me into berserk
It actually takes over your body to not feel pain and boosts your body’s potential to its limits and more the longer you can last in it. It heightens your senses and doesn’t make them go away, however you losing your senses is basically your body shutting down while still in berserker mode. It basically makes you bloodthirsty and war ravenous until you literally die from full output of your body’s energy
This is one of the very few “anime power ups” I can actually get behind. Not only does it feel earned, but it provides as much drawbacks as positives. When Guts uses the armor, it’s cool af but as the reader, you wonder how much damage Guts will take and how much he will lose every time it activates. Perfect stakes for the story
So basically: its when you get a massive amount of adrenaline and you can actually go all out without feeling pain or your bones breaking. Well theres drawbacks but eh.
