Err, yes, yes it is. Berserk is supposed to shock you. I don't think any true-and-honest fan will argue against that. You can be deep and shock people, you know?
Or that arc featuring the Not-Inquisition with a lovingly full-page spread of a women-only torture chamber.Newhalf wrote: ↑Mon Mar 28, 2022 7:48 amMaybe none of them featured a bound Farnese about to be raped by the demon possessed horse.
My favorite scene, with the troll mass rapings coming in as close second.
I feel that most Berserk "fans" only know about the gay Golden Age arc since all they have seen is the piss poor animu (the newer one, the old one was actually okay). Meaning they missed all the good fun.
Or that time the Not-Muslims ran a literal demon factory fueled by pregnant women.
Or that arc where kids get turned into naked fake fairies and start brutally slaughtering each other for "fun".
And speaking of good fun: Does Schierke ever get raped in the final chapters? Asking for a friend.
I certainly hope they won't get their way with this one. This shit is basically killing fiction. The tabletop RPG industry is hit especially hard with this, with D&D and Pathfinder purging all traces of slavery and colonialism from their settings because they want to pander to weirdoes who think that even mentioning [bad things] in your work of fiction means you personally condone [bad things].
