@@Aikoooooissorry Jokes are meant to be intelligent. This is just a stupid joke. I am having fun in a better way, and still fun at the parties. And, now you have to learn how to address arguments without ad hominems. Lol
"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
@guy stff Guts didn't need to stay with him, and his own freedom was the right choice. Guts had the fortitude to survive, Griffith did not and was just living upon the blood and efforts of others. The second he didn't have a back to ride on, he crumbled. Well written, but he was his own downfall with his dependency and selfishness.
@guy stff Right, but everyone's suffering was still not his fault lol. It was 100% Griffiths weakness that is at fault despite anything that happened. It's not like Guts went out of his way to ruin his plans, he just didn't want to be in them anymore.
@@sukuna9142 I agree though, I’m hoping we will see a conclusion in some form. Even if they just release plot details, I can’t stand thinking about guts and everyone else just stuck in a purgatory.
The laugh I had when Guts put his grasses on was that last little bit that was needed to put me over the edge in tears. This video really just made me decide to find the best artist I can and commission a piece of me hugging Guts goodbye. I don't care how silly that sounds, Ive been reading Berserk since 2006, it has been with me longer than most things and it crushed me that it, in a way, died.
Hey man. It didn't die. If we carry the torch and pass it along to our kids and friends, we can keep it alive forever. It's what Ken and Guts would want. We'll make them immortal. And we'll each be like Guts in our own way.
I feel you, man. I've been reading it since 2003. It became such a big part of my life. Honestly, I've been having trouble finding other things to look forward to. But I'll get there if I keep the flame alive. Cheers.
Guts was, and still is, a character I consider a role model. As sappy or even cringy as it sounds, the character that told me that no matter how hard life got you down, there is still a chance for it to get better. His story resonated with me in a way very few others have and why I will cherish Berserk forever. Even if there isn't an ending I don't care, because what we have is fantastic.
@@IoiniEverson No no i want that to, but we might just have to settle for that since we probably won’t get to see Griffith, lose everything again, even though he deserves it.
Holy shit, this is the first time I am shedding tears - so many mixed emotions appearing at once. Exceptional work man. I love it. Thank you for making it.
It’s not too often you see Guts smile. I know he goes through more bullshit in the series then we could probably ever imagine, but I wish we could see more of it. Now I know how people feel when they tell me I should smile more.

As a writer and someone who still sees my fair share of struggles in life thus far, Berserk has always given me so much in regards to not only hope, but also inspires me to continue fighting my way through dark times in life because the potential for a better future is always worth pursuing. I was introduced to Berserk by way of the 1997 anime as well as the manga, and I adore both greatly. Berserk is one of the greatest stories of any kind that I've ever experienced, even to the point where I'm not even upset about it not being able to be finished. The ride was infinitely worth more than the price of admission, and I'm in some ways a stronger person for having read/watched it. I have two major passions in my life, writing and martial arts, and I was at a bit of a standstill at both due to severe disabilities that have made a difficult life seem at times an almost impossible one. While it's rare when I can actually use my hands well enough to type/write, I'm now able to pursue martial arts again (despite a bad back and constant pain and involuntary movement throughout my entire body) to a certain extent and I plan to fulfill my ambition of teaching someday. I don't know if I will be able to continue to write in the traditional manner all that much, (or even by way of software that tracks the user's voice and turns it into typed words) but I mention this because I wanted to note the effort I went to in order to type this out despite my problems with my hands to properly emphasize how important Mr. Miura's work is to me and why it will always be a source of inspiration and strength to me in many facets, and always will be. Long story made slightly shorter, I'm also working to improve my skills in dictation so that little by little I can properly convey my writing to others who can do the physical typing for me. I will never let my dreams die if I can help it, and I aspire to also write something as worthwhile as Berserk in the hopes that it might better someone else's life the way it did mine. I truly believe that any creative medium exists for the purpose of connecting with one another and sharing parts of ourselves that we carry deep inside that resonate strongly with like-minded individuals, giving not only an outlet for that which we harbor within, but also benefiting from the meaning that said creative works exude. Berserk is a great man's marvel that has conveyed and given so much, and for that it deserves all the praise and love in the world, even if it couldn't be finished as such. Thank you, Kentaro Miura, for all you have given this world from your brilliant mind and beautiful heart. Your passing need not be thought of as an end, but a brief hiatus before the dawn of a new and even greater chapter.
Well Guts here is a bit of news. Your time is not up and you still have a job to do and Kentaro had his students and they were mentored by him and one of them said in a tweet that he would do his best and that is all I need to know that they will continue his work because Guts sleeping under a tree in elfhelm is not him at all. Because he still needs to confront Griffith because he is not fighting to avenge the past anymore he is fighting for the future. Kentaro spend 32 years of his life on this story alone and he wanted to finish it but life dealt a big blow. But Kentaro was no fool he knew that his health was failing and he had a plan for that. I know that you do not want to hear this but Berserk will continue and the students will honor their mentor and finish his work. The title might be different but they will do it right.
@@handmethatpochitussy There are people who do not believe and there are those who do. But there are those who believe but will not admit it and I know what the challenge is that the assistants face and they are willing to do it and I believe in it. As a writer myself I respect those who try and that shows that they have the will and courage to take up the pen and continue his mentor's work.
@@handmethatpochitussy It will be and they praised and be ridiculed in equal measure and that is something that is common when someone else takes over the work of a writer who has passed and left their work unfinished. But it is better to be in the hands of one of his assistants then in the hands of a company stooge.
@@JustTooDamnHonest Youre right about the 'company goofs' part. I dont want this masterpiece to end up like Marvel's New Warriors comic and that comic was garbage the moment i laid eyes on it. Like you said, its better if the assistants, who grew alongside Berserk and loved it, continued the story instead of corporate goofs who only see Berserk as another money dispenser and nothing else.
Something about the fact that its “Guts” saying this makes it better because you know that he has suffered and keeps moving forward. Something stmbolic I note about Guts is that the sword he carries is like the weight of his despair that he shows he is syrong enough to carry and use as a weapon to move forward. He is that embodiment of an ideal type of human strength and endurance. The ideal that we know is latent in us but the ideal we ignore because submitting to the sword is easier than willing yourself to lift it up.
was the first manga or piece of perfection to make me enraged, disgusted, happy, and sad in such powerful waves of emotion. this is really great. thank your kentaro for leaving us with something so great. rest in piece
this just came into my recommended but damn it hit just as hard as when I found out about Miura's passing. thank you for making this as it really has given me a solid reminder to have hope even though things really do seem low right now. Berserk has always been about pushing on regardless about how unfathomably difficult life can be. I think that's something that Miura always wanted to teach us though his work and I will always be thankful for that message.
"We had a hell of a time, didn't we?" Almost started crying again. Seriously... okay, yeah, tearing up. Seriously, I've never been so attached to someone's work like this. I've said this before, but now I know how Nirvana fans felt went Kurt Cobain took his own life. Until this, I had NEVER understood why fans of an act cried when seeing them live or losing them... but it's been building. I got into podcasts around 2009, and found Giant Bomb. I found out about Ryan Davis's passing on a Bombcast I was excited to listen to... because it came out on my birthday. Imagine... hearing some of your favorite personalities, famous for being funny and real, going through such obvious pain. And each time Vinny started to crack a bit, it's like I was crying _for_ him. Then David Bowie died. I watched/listened to all of Black Star and found myself crying through the whole thing, for a man whose beautiful music had always been with me, who stood out in the few movies he did, and who made what I consider to be the best singular track I've ever heard, for the simplicity of the video and heartfelt chaos of the vocals: Heroes. Fast forward to this year. 3 longtime members of Giant Bomb leave the site, one being the aforementioned Vinny. I heard him start to crack now and then, especially when he mentions how hard his career has been on his wife. Ahhhhhh, that's right. I was listening to the Bombcast back when his son Max was born. Since then, he's had a daughter as well. The family moved out east to jersey, to be closer to the home crowd of Staten Islanders, and he felt even closer... literally. I'm from NJ, and imagine my surprise when Vinny detailed a trip taking his son to a Chuck E. Cheese on route 22... that's literally 6 minutes from my house, and it was torn down last year. But yes. Back to Berserk. The pain will always be there, but it's the most gorgeous type... not because it's pleasurable, but to those of you out there who feel it... You feel it so intensely because you found something you may not have realized you loved so much. That love was real. It still is. I got tired of seeing people say: "don't be sad because it's over. Be happy because it happened." It's totally true. I want to say to the people who now don't want to start or continue reading Berserk from wherever they left off... _please_ read it. I have been a fan for 18 years. It's gotten me through some very tough times in my life, including homelessness - and I wouldn't trade a second of those years for anything else. Join us in celebrating the best manga that's ever been made 😂
Holy shit. I have been going through one of the hardest periods of my life recently, and my mood has been swinging wildly between “poor” and “dangerously poor”. This speaks to me, not just because it reminded me what berserk was all about, but why I fell in love with it in the first place. I struggle, and will continue to struggle with a great deal of problems, but this was a kind reminder to keep going. That I can make things better. Sometimes it takes little things like this to provide that gentle reminder. Thank you.
This touched me in so many ways, just like all the other people I see in the comment section. I've been having a really rough time for a while now, but one of the things I looked up to was berserk. In it's story, how Guts kept pushing forward even with everything he had to deal with, everything he had to fight through. It's helped me find some of my own inner strength, to keep pushing through and to not give up to life.
My god, that cut deep. 😢 Such wise words of wisdom and comfort. When we lost Kentaro Miura, it was indeed mournful time with worries about what becomes of the manga and never knowing how it really ends. With the timeless music playing while Guts gives his fans these words, it makes everything bittersweet but also hopeful. Because deep down, we're all Strugglers and need to be just as strong as Guts in order to carry on. Thank you for this video, it's heartwarming and made me shed tears. And thank you to Kentaro Miura and Guts. ❤🥀🌹🌈🕯
Man this is the closest I've come to full crying in years. Almost a decade. This finally allowed me to tear up hah. I lost my aunt and my cousin last year to cancer, never got to see either of them for the risk of them getting sick. This made me think back on it and, as said, came the closest to crying since my nan died when I was 10. Thanks man. Very well made, and very appreciated. Have a lovely year :)
i love both metal gear and berserk this was awesome would be epic to have the guys over at Studio Taka that do guts voice to voice over this video that would be perfection!
He changed the landscape for mangas and dark fantasy, he influenced many other creators from many different media, and his work will echo in the works of others for years to come. Sensei did indeed earn his rest.
I got into berserk only relatively recently,and to have the author die so soon. :(. It's funny after reading it and leaving it for a few months,when I remember the story all I get are butterflies and warm feelings,why is a manga so dark,give me such a genuine....feeling of wholesomeness. It's odd.
Let us rest here, fellow strugglers before journeying further forward into the darkness, for this is a literal bonfire of hope and we will need its light to push forward. Thank you, from me, and every other Berserk fan out there, and thank you, Kentaro Miura for introducing me to the greatest manga I've ever read, in my entire life. Rest well, we will keep the bonfire lit for the other strugglers yet to come. You have our word, for life is not worth living without its struggles, as that is what makes us stronger every time we persevere above them, and thus we will do as Guts did, and struggle onward.
As Im facing a difficult time after I've finished high school and thinking how the events in my life will turn, it feels so scary. I must say I related a lot of what was said in this video, it felt like it gave me hope that the future will be better. Thanks a lot Miura! We will continue to live in the struggle and fight this despair.
Simplemente hermoso 🧡🌟 en verdad, se nota el esfuerzo que pusiste ♡ gracias, muchas gracias por tan lindo vídeo 🧡 🌟 "agradecido con el de arriba, que esta con el miura ahora" ; v ; ♡
I wish Guts was my big bro. We would work out together and I would hear him scream and fight demons at night. He would teach me how to be a true struggler and we would laugh a lot. *Guts walks out from behind my dresser* "Hey little bro you still up? Can sleep big guy?" "Y-y-y-yes big bro Guts I am watching anime w-w-wanna watch together big bro?" "Yeah sure champ" *Guts comes and gives me a big bro hug* "Here put your grasses on little bro, nothing will go wrong" *I start to cry*
I’m trying to move on in life. Berserk has been there when times are rough and knowing how relatable the characters are and how it is to be human. Miura, Rest In Peace. Your manga made me feel like a man from the beginning to end
I was first introduced to Berserk through memes. Then when I sat down to read the first chapter I was blown away by it at. I read the golden age arc in one sitting. I Never had that feeling again when I read other manga, the journey of pain and loss guts goes through while somehow still staying sane and determined to achieve his goals, Inspired me to do the same, and every time I feel weak and hopeless I read Berserk again to pump myself up for the challenges up ahead.
Spoken like guts himself. after credits scene appear: still... spoken like guts himself... But yeah I will continue my struggle in this world, finally meet my girlfriend, find a job and many other things to do, even tho I don’t know what. Well I'm like guts, he only knew how to swing a sword in a Battle and I only know how to play video games.
Ahh... eu me emocionei com isso, cara! Berserk faz parte de minha história. Esse "goodbye" bateu forte, mas quem sabe do outro lado, no mundo Astral, não ficaremos sabendo o final? Ou talvez devessemos criar o nosso próprio final... Thanks Kentaro Miura, and thank you panagiotis1990 ! Berserk will always live inside of us.
I come back here a lot to watch this video. It is a source of strength for me. I won’t give up! I will never give up! He would never want me to give up! Struggle until I win!
Eres inspiración bro, no hay que dejar de homenajear a KENTARO MIURAyo haré mi tributo también a este gran artista y su obra maestra BERSERK...GRACIAS POR MANTENER AL FANDOM VIVO
Rest In Peace Kentaro Miura. In my eyes, you will be remembered as the single greatest mangaka to walk this earth and I will cherish your marvelous piece of art until I go where you have gone.
Thank you for this. It was one of the best videos I've ever watched and I will never forget it. Guts is my hero as well as Kentaro Miura. To think I feel this way and I haven't even read through the manga. I have just watched the 97 anime and it gave me a profound respect for Berserk and Miura. If I feel like this I can't even hope to understand how a true fan feels about what has happened. RIP MIURA, you were truly excellent!
I haven't been a Berserk fan for a very long time, but it didn't take me long to really get into Berserk and really admire Miura's work, the first time I heard of his death was from a friend, I refused to believe it was true, but after seeing it all over the internet I couldn't deny it any longer, any video I watch now related to Berserk really saddens me
