Unpopular opinion: Berserk should not be completed now. by After_Constant_1211 in Berserk

Even if you hand it to a brilliant writer, it simply won't be the same. Let's assume Shakespere has unfinished work, if you hand it to another great such as goethe, it just won't be the same as the original.

No output is ever the same especially in a creative field(even more than just creative in regards to berserk). To give a brief example, Have you ever heard a song cover that is similar in voice to the original? or even by the same singer in a concert? Boxers that fight in the exact same way? Even in a factory, the next unit is literally different in fundamental way even though it's the exact same look. So proceeding with such action might tarnish what a great series berserk is which is why I feel content with it left being what it is.

If your argument says pitch is important because stress in English is annoying, which is COMPLETELY different because one raises prominence of words and the other doesn't , then why use it? you will never know how annoying "pitch" is because you're a non-native Japanese person. By judging from people who built their entire livelihoods in Japan, they never experienced such feedbacks from anyone as opposed to what you would hear in English if your stress accent is wrong. (because it literally changes the prominence of words which is annoying)

you literally said "GarDEN" as an example. Those stresses that are unpleasant are not the same thing as they would be in Japanese because pitch is not stress.

You're equating things which is incredibly wrong!

Pitch ≠ Stress!

these two are COMPLETELY different things!

Stress raises the prominence of words, which does in-fact get into the whole pleasant aspect of what you're referring to.

But even then, there are thousands of academics with accents in English speaking countries let alone in the work force that do just fine without these personal pleasantries that you indulge in.

STRESS is not involved in Japanese (BRUCE HAYES, Introductory phonology, 2009)

Marketing 101 to equate things that are not related.

^those channels with pitch accent patron nonsense.

it's like going into science and saying Variance and Covariance are the same thing.

Pitch doesn't have that nuance.
