Honestly though, I think one of the biggest wtfs I have about berserk fandom is this belief that humanity is somehow inherently a good thing (within the context of Berserk). I do realize thatās kind ofā¦ the perspective weāre used to taking, and I know I contribute to it because Iā¦ have a hard time thinking of ways to say the things Iām trying to say without referencing humanity as a theoretical good. Itās just really heavily ingrained into our language, though it may be worth taking a minute to figure out a way around butā¦
Nearly every Godhand and apostle that has existedā¦ exists because some human broke them. Their willingness to take up the Sacrifice is a direct result of humans hurting them so much that they were willing to do anything at all to make it stop. And the majority of the worst, most reprehensible characters in berserk are human.
Itās humanityās desire that created the whole damn system - humanity invented the Idea of Evil, humanity begged for Griffith, even the monster plagued world Griffith created is explicitly defined as the world humanity wished for.
Soā¦. you know.
Not saying everyone should become demons Iām just saying thereās nothing inherently more noble about not doing that. Well, you can say not accepting sacrifices is noble, but its not like people who dontā accept sacrifices are guaranteed to be great.
Truth be told, Iām not even sure Guts would be so anti-demon if demons hadnāt eaten the Hawks. Like sure heās anti-human now, but isnāt that largely because monsters killed his friends and are always trying to gnaw him to death?

Popular Berserk fan-theories:
Warning: Spoilers for up to chapter 338.
The Skull Knight is actually Gaiseric, who was sacrificed by the person who then became the God-Hand āVoidā as a result. Ā
Void is actually one of the aliens from āMars Attacks!ā. The Skull Knight will figure out (purely by accident) that Void is vulnerable against a random, obscure, old song and will play it until Voidās head explodes. Like with the film āMars Attacks!ā (and many of Berserkās more creative Apostle/demon encounters with Guts) no one will understand what the hell they just saw or why/how any of it happened. The art will be beautiful and gruesome.

the way everyone is like this man here and this man there and Iām over here like my favorite eternal push and pull in taylor's life is how Taylor and Olivia will be doomed to orbit each other and clash and crash into each other until one of them leaves the spotlight or dies. and how Olivia is what Taylor made her and anointed her to be, but she has outgrown her maker. and donāt you want better for your children? but no wait not better than me... wait hold on... the ego of the mother creating her disciple in hubris saying of course sheās just like me until oh noā¦. sheās just like meā¦ I was irreplaceable until I created my replacementā¦. forever intertwined. too resentful to let it go but too enamored with the reflections of themselves they see in each other to destroy. even if they donāt speak the world has shackled them together something something. and I think so much of the album is her hitting the realization head on that nothing lasts forever. nothing. not love not even after YEARS of work put into it and not public favor and not self esteem it took YEARS to build and not even satisfaction both in sex and in life's spoils. but also that huge one like oh and meā¦. even I wonāt last forever. not mortality but worse; the waning moon of my talent being the brightest in the sky. i LOOOOOOVE this meta textual shit and it's a tale as old as time, quite literally a history creator and creation are doomed to repeat. she both hands her the keys to the city on this album and also inadvertently creates a song that is the exact same concept olivia made, but this time Olivia beat her to it like... The future isn't here yet, and it is bright but it belongs to someone else now!!!

āthey filled my cell with snakesā being a reference to the mythological Cassandra gaining the ability to see the future after snakes whispered in her ears AND Taylorās cell(phone) getting flooded with snake (emojis)
