Yes the opening episode def hits hard, but I think it does that to show how irredeemable the Goblins are. Despite the cruel world they live in the party develops comradery and has each other's backs in the hardest of times.That show was unfairly raked over the coals at first because there was a rape in the beginning. Beyond that its a pretty tame show
Got most of the light novels and based one of my favorite dnd characters from him.I like the series because it shows what a "pushover" monster type can do if given the opportunity and it also features a character that uses any means available to eradicate them.
That's more Berzerk imo, GS is essentially a watered down version, it's a bit too uh I don't think rapey is the correct word as that's used to bash it a lot but a bit simplistic in comparison is what I would say is an objective difference betwixt the two.I think GS is more about what actual PTSD can turn someone into.
GS does have PTSD and is mostly driven by survivors guilt.That's more Berzerk imo, GS is essentially a watered down version, it's a bit too uh I don't think rapey is the correct word as that's used to bash it a lot but a bit simplistic in comparison is what I would say is an objective difference betwixt the two.
Yes, what I am saying is to the point I read it, it was shallower on exploring said topics, not bad at all but it's hard to compare to the master.GS does have PTSD and is mostly driven by survivors guilt.

Dudes, the goblins are like men who'd constantly ask for permission during sex compared to the trolls in berserk. Most of those women die after pregnancy. Even the one they tried to save.GS does have PTSD and is mostly driven by survivors guilt.
Yes, it's over the top thus losing the grounding to explore the themes I spoke of earlier, I did not say it was not metal as hell. It totally is, it's really fucking metal.Dudes, the goblins are like men who'd constantly ask for permission during sex compared to the trolls in berserk. Most of those women die after pregnancy.

As great as Miura's narrative building is, mainly contriving most of it from the design and bits of dialogue alone.Yes, it's over the top thus losing the grounding to explore the themes I spoke of earlier, I did not say it was not metal as hell. It totally is, it's really fucking metal.
I have all of the light novels too! I also have a GS figure that is probably the favorite one I have. It might be my favorite anime but I'm always hesitant to commit to that.Got most of the light novels and based one of my favorite dnd characters from him.

What would be worse for a woman... to be raped by a Troll from berserk and then die during birth?...OR to be constantly used as a flesh light, give birth to a clutch of small beings that are going to continue the cycle until the captive dies and then after eating said captive, use their bones as arts and crafts materials?Dudes, the goblins are like men who'd constantly ask for permission during sex compared to the trolls in berserk.

Both.What would be worse for a woman... to be raped by a Troll from berserk and then die during birth?...OR to be constantly used as a flesh light, give birth to a clutch of small beings that are going to continue the cycle until the captive dies and then after eating said captive, use their bones as arts and crafts materials?
Nice, I want to get a figurine soon. Same with Tanya the Evil, Berserk, Overlord, etcI have all of the light novels too! I also have a GS figure that is probably the favorite one I have. It might be my favorite anime but I'm always hesitant to commit to that.
The Trolls do the same, but it's way more violent than the Goblins, they don't take the entire village like Goblins. To them, it's like herding, and waiting for more women and children to be made. They also kidnap children and (potentially) rape even little girls. I don't think GS went that far being about 16ish girls being a prime victim of Gobs.What would be worse for a woman... to be raped by a Troll from berserk and then die during birth?...OR to be constantly used as a flesh light, give birth to a clutch of small beings that are going to continue the cycle until the captive dies and then after eating said captive, use their bones as arts and crafts materials?
I wouldn't put it past the little green bastards. We haven't seen the full extent. but we do know that they enjoy torturing their captives be they male or female. I mean the Sword Maiden was raped beaten and purposefully blinded by them just for the entertainment value.The Trolls do the same, but it's way more violent than the Goblins, they don't take the entire village like Goblins.

They hold grudges and have a culture. At least from what we've seen have a religious beliefs and fetishes: totems, shrines, pillars, etc.I wouldn't put it past the little green bastards.
