Indeed!
Like those two:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoS0Ih…
www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjKNPJ…
can be linked to Guts' story, without mentioning it directly

While this one www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vXq3t… kind of reminds me of Guts x Casca after she went insane...
"I am all that you remember,
Among the buried memories
I'm the tears running down your face
I'm the angel who sings you to sleep"

I mean, holy shit? lol
It wouldnt surprise me if Berserk had some kind of subconscious influence on all these lyrics

Exactly Some others:

"Die-Hard Warrior" - I listed this one in my 'preliminary' list, but it is a bit of a stretch to be a full-fledged "Berserk" song; more broadly though, it is indeed a perfect song for Guts
"Savage and Saint" - Guts x Casca, maybe?
"Unholy Savior" - Griffith, during his imprisonment and then up to the Eclipse
"Dancing with the Beast" - Casca x Guts; or perhaps Casca's inner thoughts during the time she's in this 'demented' state
"Beyond the Burning Skies" - Griffith's ambitions
"We Will Fight" - Very vague maybe, but the whole 'stand and fight' idea, that "Berserk" certainly emphasizes at times

Ah yes, I noticed Savage and Saint and Beyond the Burning skies were very Berserk-ish.

Oh and: Justice and Metal
starts with the first line:
"He's a bad motherfucker he's a metal man"
Nuff said.


Do you know the name of the song when they mentioned "raid commander guts", or something along those lines? I forgot and couldnt find it on my playlist

Hehe, yep

Yep. You're thinking of "Victory", from their 'Steel' album :3

Another fact, the band's name is supposedly a reference to Zodd

Ahhh thanks!

Yep! One of their album covers look like one of the berserk title covers as well (where Guts holds unconscious Casca with a broken sword in his hand under the eclipse)


OH and I got my hands on a hard copy of berserk. First time I held one in my hands

when I opened it, it felt like

BAM
EPIC ART
IN YO FACE

reading hard copies of berserk is like having an entire art gallery in your hands

So true

Oh? AWESOME! >w<

I only read them via online scans, but yes, I've handled physical copies of the first five volumes, and I love them so much

Its really really different when you hold those copies in your hand rather than just reading them online
plan to collect them all, got a +400 page book (stretching from the Pirate encounter to shortly after the Ball @ Vritannis) for just 10 bucks

Im broke but fuck it... Lost children will likely be next

"got a +400 page book (stretching from the Pirate encounter to shortly after the Ball @ Vritannis) for just 10 bucks"

So it's one of those mega books, that is the equivalent of having 2 or more of the standard volume books?

Dang, I didn't know that
Another thing that's similar to history or sages
I've seen people compare Griffith to Alexander the Great, too
