  • The New Chapters

    They clearly love the source material and they have valid criticisms of the new chapters. However, they also look for every single little thing to complain about. It goes from legitimate concern to speaking about what miura would have hypothetically done. They rip on things that the average fan wouldn’t even think about. They’ll even say, this is no longer berserk. It just comes across as bitter.

  • This podcast about Berserk is as …

    This podcast about berserk is just as meticulously detailed and admiring of the work of Berserk as Miura was in creating his masterpiece which paid homage to so many other artists and so many other works. If you don’t understand why Miura’s passing was so devastating and why the handling of Berserk today by Mori and the staff at Studio Gaga is such a disappointment then sadly you were never truly connected to what made Berserk so great in the first place. In a way, I actually envy you for that. ... more

  • Stop doing this podcast

    Every single one of these post mirua eps is so highly negative. It’s one thing to be critical it’s another to just trash the work completely. What’s the point in even continuing your podcast if you’re not gonna buy volume 42 and support their work. I can’t listen to this anymore and support you if you won’t even support the work your whole podcast is about.

  • Want To Like It More

    So I’m new to Berserk and was looking for a podcast to listen as I’m reading the volumes for the first time. The episodes that focus on single volumes are great for this purpose but one of the host has a habit of dropping spoilers as he provides his comments. It only happens a few times each episode. Unfortunately it kind of ruins a new readers experience of meshing the manga with the awesome podcast analysis for each volume.

  • Complaints

    They are complaining about the manga not being the same knowing Muira is dead. They look too deep into the chapters and complain for an hour. It’s truly sad because the team are trying there best and they are just pushing them into the ground knowing they could not even stand a chance trying to do the work they do.
