SONG: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZjbY6yYlM6qicU A month has passed since Kentaro Miura's death was made public and I haven't tried until now to verbally express how much he and his work mean to me. The more I think about it, the more apparent it becomes that I am not capable of doing so in a way that makes me satisfied. The truth is, Berserk has ingrained itself so deep within me that describing the full extent of my love for it is just far too daunting of a task. It is something I have tried to do before and never could manage. It is even more difficult now. Regardless, I will try. I have been depressed for close to, if not a full decade. Since before I even knew the word for what I was feeling. I can’t point to any specific event that started it, and I can’t say it’s gotten much better for me, but my ability to handle it has at least improved. When you're a child and you have little control over your life, it is difficult to take uplifting messages and conversations about how things will change to heart, when everything you know suggests otherwise. To this day, I struggle with taking words of optimism seriously, both from people and stories, for it almost always feels hollow. But Berserk did the impossible, and got through to me, because I wasn't told, and I wasn’t lectured. I was shown. And in a way that truly felt earned at that. There is no person, real or fictional, who could ever hope to inspire on the level that Guts can. His refusal to die despite being pitted against gods and fate itself is beyond comprehension. Despite being robbed of nearly everything, he presses on to ensure the one thing that has always been his: his life. Even though the accumulated stress from his audacity is killing his senses, exacerbating his tremors, and shortening his life span, amongst other ailments, he continues on in spite of it all. It is the greatest act of defiance imaginable. Since I first read Berserk, my computer wallpaper and phone wallpapers have stayed the same. Guts’ story is so powerful, that all it takes is one of these still artworks or a mental image of the character to keep me going when I feel like I am at my limit. Over, and over. Again, and again. Every time I remind myself of Guts' battle, it makes whatever I am dealing with feel inconsequential. And that has been the boost that has quite literally kept me up these past few years. And has continued to do so this past month. And will continue to do so for however long I am here. And yet, as someone who struggles with anger issues, Guts has reached me far beyond his ability to endure external conflict. His unending fight against himself for control is one I know all too well, and Miura’s portrayal of this means the world to me. And so above all, Guts’ story of resistance and restraint is why I treasure this series so much. Even so, Berserk has made me laugh out loud many times, and broken my heart with the struggles the characters aside from Guts face as well. People like Casca, Jill and Serpico are unbelievably strong too. It is for this reason that I tried my best to display all these aspects into the video, at least on some level. Kentaro Miura, I am devastated at your passing. But I won’t waste the life you have given me and will continue to fight my war despite life being so bleak. Guts and Casca are off resting somewhere after winning theirs, so I won’t let up from mine now. Rest in peace you fucking hero. Berserk will forever be the best work of fiction, even unfinished. I hope you know that. And I hope you were proud of what you did, because no one else could have done it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Miura's storytelling will forever be unmatched. He created characters, plots, and scenes that go beyond just being cool or creative. They are iconic, inspiring, horrifying, and beyond expectation. Berserk is brutal, yet beautiful, like life. Just like in life nothing comes without sacrifice and things don't just magically work out in the end. Although I understand if you enjoy stories that let you escape life. I need something to help me cope with it. Something that gives me hope and inspiration. Thank you for making this video. I love this community because we all understand pain, trauma, and in this dark moment we are all here for each other. REST IN POWER KENTARO MIURA, YOU LEGEND, YOU KING!

"The clear sky now peeks through. But it's by no means a spectacle that makes my heart leap, like when I flew in the sky with Rosine. It's savage. Lonely. Cold. But such a vivid sky! It's a clear sky like the kind after a storm blows through. I don't have wings, so I guess I'll look up at this sky and crawl along the earth. [...] In a tiny village nestled in a ravine, difficult to see even from the air, I think I'm about to start my own tiny battle." My personal favorite moment in Berserk is not a bloody fighting scene where Guts slays his enemies like they were flies, nor an epic battle against an Apostle, but rather a young, almost insignificant girl reflecting on her life. I believe the end to Lost Children encapsulates the most important message in Berserk. Life is awful, but you must keep struggling. Thank you Miura. Thank you Tess’s tunes for your beautiful voice. Thank you trill_nathan for this touching homage.

My mind still hasn't accepted that the only man to give me a will to live has passed before being able to finish his message, it really feels like a sick joke from God that the one who always called to defy impossible odds gets done in by this cruel twisted world. I've never come across anything that gave me hope in such an authentic way like Berserk, which unlike other optimistic things i've seen doesn't feel hollow or empty or fake. I struggled with suicidal thoughts, worthlessness, loss of purpose, anger, frustration, defeat for years of my life and have always gotten the short end of the stick but seeing how Guts overcame the very things that make my life hell and much more even at the expense of his health and sanity gave me motivation and shattered my worldview. I'm still far from being happy but i at least have the will to keep on fighting. I think i was influenced by Guts as much as Schierke, Farnese, Casca, Serpico or Isidro were, he's truly an exceptional man. This mish-mash of feelings and thoughts is the best i could do to express even a part of my love for Berserk and Kentaro Miura

I think it will end by Guts choosing Peace and to live the rest of his life with Casca and his friends forgetting about vengeance, if you recall in the Fantasia arc the manga showed that he became significantly weaker, So I think this would make sense, And then Griffith would destroy himself but now without the help of Guts I think this type of ending would show the parallels between Guts and Griffith and that Guts learned alot while Griffith took the easy way out and learnt nothing
