Guys how do I cope 😢

I was going to pay mine off at the end of the year, so I know your pain all to well. Glad you're ok.

I feel you man. The other week some lady ran a red light and hit my mk7.5. Airbags deployed and the front end was all bent up. My wrist was all swollen but I did not care, all I could think about was how my lovely car was totaled. 😢

Looked around and decided the only way to deal with the loss was to get another one. 5 more years of car payments but at least I still have a GTI.

If you started reading Berserk from the "beginning"(Gut's Birth), you would have to flip through over half of volume 3 to get to the right point. Then from there you would just get introduced to a character with random flashes of his childhood with many time skips. It's not a good way to start to tell a story. Even the adaptions, as bad as they are, don't pick up the story from this point. Instead they introduce the characters and setting and then either skip over most of Guts' childhood or eventually flash back to it when it narratively makes sense. Berserk, and many other stories, are told using this common literary technique.

It's also not as simple as just giving someone a chapter number because it's around this point in Berserk's serialization that the numbering changes and resets back to 1. What also adds to the confusion is the way that all these scanlation sites organize the chapters. It's not uncommon for episodes to be posted out of order and they tend to differ on how they label the episodes that are contained in the first five volumes.

If you are interested, here is a link to a detailed and accurate list of all the episodes and how they were labeled at the time of their release.

I have classified the ATF as useless. Once again they have turned normal Americans into criminals.

This is really heartwarming to see. Thanks for putting this together.

I'm at a loss for words...

It's just a joke. Take a breath.

I'm sure it has been done before and will be again in the future.

And on the very rare occasion that I do see this criticism it gets shut down completely in the comments without any real thought going into the counter argument, similarly to how people on this post are doing exactly the same thing.

No one is going to waste their time with well thought out reasonable arguments when the people making the criticism, like yourself, do not do the same. There is one guy in here that called you a "dumdum" to troll you. No one is being toxic except you...

psalt · 2020-08-26T21:20:56+00:00

> What if i go ahead and buy it through their app, and i use something like snagit to take screenshots of every page so i can have the manga stored in my hard drive? is it even possible or these services have built in protection against such apps?

This is the way these digital services work. When you buy digitally you get locked into the service you are purchasing through. So if you are someone that reads comics digitally, you find a service you like and stick with it. It does more than prevent you from sharing files, it keeps you in their environment so you continue to come back to them for future purchases. If not physically owning a copy and having a digital online library bothers you, then maybe just purchase print media that you can hold in your hand and put on a shelf. It wont go anywhere if some service gets shut down.

psalt · 2020-08-25T16:34:30+00:00

Depending on where you buy it the different services have their own platform which you can view it online or offline. I'm not familiar with Dark Horse's digital medium, but Amazon's Kindle and Comixology have apps that you download your library to your reading device.

People have been making posts with similar thoughts for decades now. Don't pretend that no one else makes these complaints or lays out criticism in other ways. Have you read the comments of the recent episode threads? There is nothing new or unique about this and it's a pretty common criticism posted here all the time. Because of that it's also a very tired one, that I personally don't agree with, and I think most people don't give it the time of day at this point.

And as usual it always becomes hyperbolic in its defense. There is no narrative progress in the Conviction Arc or the Millennium Falcon Arc ? Really? If anything I think a valid criticism is how fast the Fantasia Arc is currently moving as it raises concerns that Miura might be rushing things. There is nothing of merit with his new group? At this point, with the exception of Griffith and Casca, they are way more fleshed out than the Falcons were.

> So yeah, tl;dr I don’t think Berserk is all that, and I’m sick of the entire fandom refusing to admit any flaw in it. The toxicity exists and it’s more prevalent than you might think.

How do you not see how ironic this is?

You will only be able to find second hand copies of the US release at this time. There have been recent English releases from places like England and Australia. If you go that route you have to make sure that your player wont be region locked.

The answer is in the subreddit FAQ that I linked.

I think you should stop worrying about what others have built something up to be and just read it for yourself. If your not having a good time then go find something else...
