Claymore and gantz both seemed subpar (particularly in animation and voice acting). although I did only watch 5 episodes of claymore. Have you seen Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood? EDIT: Hunter x Hunter (2011) is pretty good too. | ||

Yeah don't watch the animes, they aren't that good, just read the mangas. On January 14 2013 03:54 CrimsonLotus wrote: Also, someone already recommended the ongoing manga Shingeki no Kyojin. Very similar in it's horror, brutality and overall sense of despair. Just started it and it's amazing! | ||

If he survived, didnt he get branded as well and be swarmed by demon everywhere? No he didnt get branded, he was outside the whole event while the eclipse happend. King Gaiseric aka Skull Knight came and saved him before it occured. | ||

Even rickert seems to be having second thoughts now... Also don't forget that gut's and casca's child seems to be having some influence over griffith since he's part of him the only humans given protection are those in falconia, the rest of the humanity is getting decimated by monsters that are only around becuase Griffith wanted a material body the god hand are too powerful to exist on the material plane without completely screwing everything up also you ahve it backwards, Guts and Cascas child (if it is Guts child) does not have an effect on Griffith, it was Griffith raping casca that made the baby an evil grotesque abomination | ||

And as I said, we readers have developed the same hatred guts has towards griffith to a point that nothing can redeem him, to a point that everyone's else opinion of the white hawk is irrelevant. and here are some reminders of what happened at godo's place + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://view.thespectrum.net/manga/Berserk/Volume%2022/berserk_v22a_061.jpg) and a little later + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://view.thespectrum.net/manga/Berserk/Volume%2022/berserk_v22a_093.jpg) if you remember during the tower arc, the weird behelit apostle swallowed gut's child and in turn was used to give birth to griffith's body | ||

Great story, great characters (although the author isn't afraid to murder them lol), the right amount of gore to make the world seem really fucked up in the good way. Spoiler free summary hidden behind a spoiler tag: + Show Spoiler + Several hundred years ago, humans were nearly exterminated by giants. Giants are typically several stories tall, seem to have no intelligence, devour human beings and, worst of all, seem to do it for the pleasure rather than as a food source. A small percentage of humanity survived by walling themselves in a city protected by extremely high walls, even taller than the biggest of giants. Flash forward to the present and the city has not seen a giant in over 100 years. Teenage boy Eren and his foster sister Mikasa witness something horrific as the city walls are destroyed by a super giant that appears out of thin air. As the smaller giants flood the city, the two kids watch in horror as their mother is eaten alive. Eren vows that he will murder every single giant and take revenge for all of mankind. Nominated for the 4th Manga Taisho Awards (2011) and winner of the 35th annual Kodansha Manga award for Best Shounen, Nominated for the 16th Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize (2012) It also gets an anime this spring, which hopefully isn't censored too much: Other recommendations: Vinland Saga, Historie, Dorohedoro, Vagabond and Tower of God (ToG is not as mature and a bit more comedy, but still a great read). Hey thanks for Shingeki no Kyojin recommendation, only had time to read a couple chapters but seems awesome so far. Was wondering how I've managed to miss this gem but I blame the shounen tag as I've just sticked with seinen mangas for the past few years. On topic Elfhelm @ 2014... And yeah the moment I saw the massive fortress where Griffith was gathering people I couldn't think of anything but some kind of massive massacre/sacrifice party. | ||
