Sorry I uploaded late and my reason is that I went ahead and re-read Berserk

I really really really REALLY like Berserk like I could do a 10k words or perhaps more about why Berserk is so goddamn good and why I really like it

First of all the gore, I've watched gory stuff when I was a kid and my parents didn't care if I watch gore when I was 5-6 years old yet Berserk made all the gore stuff I've watched before look like a paper cut in comparison

Then the story. Guts is of the in not GREATEST PROTAGONIST in all of existence. The dude had been through pain, suffering, and shit that makes Naruto and it's characters look like garbage in comparison

He is struggling against fate, life, and destiny. He bathed in blood of his mother as he was below her who was a corpse hanged by a tree, raped by a man and betrayed by his father figure for 3 silver coins as he accidentally killed him which haunts him through adulthood, his friends who he saw as a finally he never had was taken away from him and fed to demons as he saw them get killed by demons and he was soaked by the blood of his friends and his Lover was raped by his Best friend who he saw as his brother that he will go to war on his own just so he can be safe, betrayed and raped his girlfriend right Infront of his eyes as he was forced to watch and his arm and eye was gone as well and if surviving literal hell wasn't enough, Griffith gave him one last middle finger to the face as he corrupts his son and broke casca's mind and he is forever cursed to be haunted by demons and the moment he dies he will be sent straight to hell

The dude isn't a hero or a villain, He has flaws and makes mistakes which is great since it makes the character feel like human and a character you can sympathies and relate with

The dude had one of the most tragic back story in existence that it's only right he acts the way he is right now, he doesn't want to be with people and pushes them away since they will die a tragic death if they are near him which is why he acts like an asshole so that people would not like him and stay away from him so that they would be safe

The dude acts like the asshole that everyone would hate but it's just an act so that they will stay far away from him yet when someone is in danger he will still try to save them and if someone dies Infront of his eyes and it's all because of him then he feels really guilty about it

And when he cries you know it's incredibly sad and tragic since he has every rights to cry and when he does we feel like crying with him

And it's not just Guts who suffered by a lot of characters as well including Griffith (FUCK YOU GRIFFITH!)

Guts has been through hellish shit yet instead of just giving up he stands up and keeps on moving forward no matter how sad or awful just happened you have keep moving forward and if something happened then it happened and you can't change that

I've been bullied a lot and it only stopped when I was grade 8 yet if I read Berserk earlier then maybe I could have made myself better
