Guts is in such huge despair and hopelessness that he might go berserk in any moment.

Griffith, as if he was Morningstar (very nice reference), has returned with Casca and Zodd to Falconia. It was good to see neo-Band of the Hawk members once again.

Very nice chapter with good art.

Griffith's face at the end gave me chills ,a look full of satisfaction .Pretty strong contrast to the desperate and broken way Guts is portrayed in the chapter.Amazing chapter ,btw did the berserker armor's jaw just break?

Guts my brother I feel for you, but you have to stand up! I don't want to see him like this T_T I hope for the worst for Griffith and his fake paradise. I'm so curious how our crew will get through this and even challenge Griffith, the God Hand, the Apostles, etc. in the next arc.

Also the art looked so good; the character designs had clean lines and the panelization/storyboard was solid overall. This spread must've taken most of Studio Gaga's time.

That was simply spectacular. You can see those two months that it took to craft this chapter. They are on the right path to approach Miura. What a way to end the year; with Guts doing a Yamcha pose (lol).

I hate those smug bastards in Falconia as much as I hate Griffith himself. The sight of poor Casca arriving there in a unconscious state (and after all she’s been through) is heartbreaking.
And Guts man…pain. Sometimes getting through these chapters is a struggle. But struggle is the name of the game

not that i noticed before, but started noticing that the art has become lighter in shade. of course its not possible to copy someone's art style, so its understandable that its that way. and im glad atleast its continuing (though the wait kills the mood) but it cant he helped.

guts still in despair, griffith returns with casca to his "so called" paradise. the pacing has been quite slow lately. im genuinely interested in how the story will unfold from here. hope we get to the conclusion one day.

I loved this spreadsheet as well. It looked really good and detailed.

From technical point of view, it was such a solid chapter. Panels were pleasant to watch and fine panelling made the whole story, even if it was a short one (due to chapter's length), easier and more entertaining to follow by viewers.

You know shit's bad when Guts is doing the Yamcha pose. I feel like this chapter was a bit off in expressing Guts' despair compared to the previous chapter. Idk, I think there should be more detail that was missing so it ended up not being as emotionally fitting. I definitely can't help but wonder how Miura would have handled both the emotional aspect and Guts' monologue.

I love how much the art has improved and I appreciate that Studio Gaga is drawing Griffith more like how he looked in Falcon of the Millennium compared to his child-like face in Elfhelm arc. I think there;s more room for subtlety, Miura drew Griffith's smug expressions less evil-like and more neutral but the studio is improving with every chapter.

I wonder how things will proceed with Guts. But I hope next chapter focuses on Falconia so we can see Casca waking up and interacting with everyone in Griffith's group.

Probably because of HxH, but this chapter felt even shorter than usual because of the lack of words and how most of it was conveyed through visuals, even though there wasn't a lot. Looks like Elfhelm Arc(or was it Fantasia?) has come to an end. I was hoping Gut would make more allies here but he can't have good things now, can he? Guess I will have to wait longer for Rickert to show up with allies.

After this, I'm curious to see how Guts will recover from all this. This is definitely not something that can be resolved in the next few chapters. It will be quite interesting to see how they handle his recovery after such a breakdown.

And let's not forget, screw both Griffith and his band.

This is literally how like 25% of berserk has always felt, you dont notice it binging it but theres entire chapters of pretty much nothing but visuals and that stands out on a monthly read especially when you are aware of a staff change and will always at least subconsciously be looking for differences. That 1 fight against a bunch of trolls that was like in universe maybe an hour was 30 chapters long,

There absolutely will be more visual storytelling than dialogue i dont think anyone is gonna deny thats Gaga and Mori's plan to not overstep, but at the same time thats really not that far off from how things were the series all things considered is a really slow paced manga that seemed to only slow down more over time.

Hell, just go look at how people viewed chapters 297-306 as they were publishing. A lot of people complained about the lack of dialogue and how short each chapters felt, yet it had the best art of the entire series and provided us an epic conclusion to FotME. Volume 34 stands out from the rest, it's a legit artpiece. With Berserk, you just have to accept and cherish what you get.

Thats it? Well better than a year long hiatus I assume..

Guts suffered emotional damage, you would think he is used to it but this seems to really be his lowest point ever. Guts eclipse? Looking possible again now.

On the plus side: Maybe we will see Casca slapping Griffith when she wakes up. Also rape horse reappeared as a memory!

I've been up to date most of the time for the past 10 years. But I don't know what to say now, this chapter felt extra lackluster.

Maybe if I come back in a year, something will have happened.

Guts used his sword, strength and pure rage tackingling everything, but when you see him curling like a baby, giving into despair it is definitely going to break spirits of everyone aligned with him including his followers in story even us manga readers as well.

I don't know if it's that I'm more used to the change now, but the art feels like it's had a significant improvement in terms of how it tells the story. I think this chapter is a massive achievement for Studio Gaga and Kouji Mori, as this is the first chapter to me that feels closest to Kentaro Miura's quality.

It was actually an accurate depiction of a person who has been totally broken, feeling as if all effort put into something was as good as doing nothing all these years.

Why is there a sea near Falconia? I thought Falconia, which was the Midland capital, Wyndhelm, was based on Paris... which is not anywhere close to either the Atlantic or Mediterranean. That and the fact there's no mention of a sea anywhere before in the manga, much less a depiction of a harbor. In fact, everytime we're shown the environment around the city there was never a sea near it. Crazy.
