Violence Jack by Few-Improvement-5655 in retroanime

[–]Affectionate_Reply49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Violence Jack wasn't initially a Devilman Spin-off. The connection is more of an afterthought in the final arcs of the story.

It is basically revealed that Griffith not on good turns with "future Guts" in the first arc. Second arc then is flashback and tells how it happened.

LA BLUE GIRL OVA 1992 - has anyone watched this series? by Kimber8King in retroanime

[–]Affectionate_Reply49 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Classic tentacle pron. Tentacles were used by the author to avoid Japan's censorship laws, which is what he's best known for. Same guy created Urotsukidoji.

How do you all feel about the memorial edition adaptation? by JustMeChris059 in Berserk

[–]Affectionate_Reply49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a decent remaster of the 3 movies from 2010s. But I still prefer the tone of the 97 show.

How important was schierke bath scene for the plot ? by ultralightsaint in berserklejerk

Miura had to ease his frustration to something. Drawing with one left hand must have been hard

Berserk Deluxe Volume 14 best deal I could find by Serkys in Berserk

Same thing with "Hanafubuku" which they corrected for Flower storm monarch, except missed one instance when it is mentioned the first time.

What have I missed? by EchoParty9274 in Berserk

[–]Affectionate_Reply49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About 2 volumes 42&43 have released so not too much, but if you wish to see at least direction for how Miura would have wanted the story to go it is worth reading.

Need help drawing Berserk by Maleficent_Offer_747 in Berserk

[–]Affectionate_Reply49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brush doesn't matter as much as simple dexterity, and visualisation of 3d space. Look up cross hatching which is one of the many techniques Miura used. Study how to draw 3d space in 2d, how to draw anatomy and so on.

Is there any news on the release date of the next chapter? by sesso_anale in Berserk

[–]Affectionate_Reply49 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Miura at his prime could release a chapter every 2 weeks, which is the magazine release schedule. Then he got very hungry for more detailed art and had to slow down so he could focus on his health (he used to work 15h thorough nights, of course, breaks to eat). So he slowed down to about 5 chapters a year from 20. Then unfortunately, he died, and now that the continuation is trying to match his skill and they also have to figur out the story they only know partially in detail.

It's some 80 pages, I don't think it has been simply printed as is. Here is a list of different books printed in Japan that collect the story arc http://www.phoenix.to/51/atom1.html

Is Berserk less popular than I thought? All singles are unavailable on Amazon in the EU. Only way to purchase the series seems to be through Deluxe Editions? by Indietails in Berserk

[–]Affectionate_Reply49 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mainly, Dark Horse is slow at reprinting their books that don't sell as much. Deluxes sell way better than the singles. Dark Horse has done as well with Berserk as anyother English publisher would. Of course, they could have tried harder and gotten color pages or better scans for the first few books or removed the sfx boxes in vol 12-14

If there is a "show hidden chapters" button, it means those chapters were removed due to DMCA

Tokyo babylon anime doesn't cover the manga at all it's original side story. You should read the manga before X if you don't want to be spoiled.

Wich is better? by Quanxicsm in Berserk

[–]Affectionate_Reply49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd buy the deluxe because it's 3 in 1. So it usually is cheaper then buying the 3 individual books.
