even if it does finish (which is highly doubtful considering we're probably not even halfway through the plot), Miura isn't the same person he was when he started Berserk. It might sound weird, but Happy-Miura just isn't on the same level of quality as Depressed-Miura. Whatever form of Berserk that we'll get will never be as good as what could have been.

Gungrave is the closest thing to a finished Berserk that we'll get, probably.

Isn't it coming close to a year since the last chapter was released. It hurts more knowing that if a new chapter comes i will be so excited for the minuscule plot movement that will come in those 19 or so pages. ;(
For people who have never read Berserk imagine having to wait a year between One Piece chapters. It fucking hurts.

Now, what's this about "Happy-Miura" and "Depressed-Miura"? I've liked the overall quality of the series (I even reread it all from the start a couple of months ago because I couldn't take waiting). That flower spirit flashback arc really tears me up, in any case. Why'd she need to die. If that's the "Depressed-Miura" then that Miura is a good storyteller.

the first chunk of Berserk was jsut him running around slaughtering everything single mindedly just focusing on killing Griffith but now hes completely different is what i think he means

can we discuss zoro a little bit? i just re-read a large part of the first half of onepiece, ending at enies lobby (best arc imo, sidenote) and i think he is such an underwhelming character. i mean i grew up with one piece in my hands. i have followed this shit for almost as long as i can remember, and i love the series so much, but i am just curious if anyone else feels like me. zoro never shows any feelings except anger or nochalance, and is in all other situations completely apathetic. i always thought he was the coolest character in the series, but as i grow older and as the series develops past standard-shounen-bullshit-i-am-stronger-than-u-lol-XD i feel he needs more than just the "im gonna become the best swordsman 'cuz my bitch ladyfriend died from some disease".
now, that made it sound like i hate him, but i feel thats the hard truth. he does nothing, absolutely nothing, except slice people and walk in the wrong direction. he isn't funny, he isn't emotional, he has no known emotions at all like sanji having a weakness in women, nami and usopp not being particularly strong and scared all the time, luffy wanting to protect his nakama etc. and dont give me any robin bullshit, that lady showed more emotion in enies lobby than any other character combined in all the arcs.

just wanting a discussion here, not setting anything afire by saying i hate zoro, he is still really fucking cool.

i have re-read the entire series about 5 times the last two years, but the development in that one is not much more than that he will sacrifice his life for his captain? nothing new, done that in every arc before and after.

Zoro is a stoic character, which is a big part of what makes him so "cool". However, if you read carefully, there is some depth to Zoro beyond just being a badass.

- Who his parents are and why he has his dream and went to the dojo are still unknown. So there's still a lot of potential in his back story.
- His childhood master is friendly with Dragon and the revolutionaries (or at least supplied them).
- He has a dream to become the world's strongest swordsman based on his childhood rivalry with a girl who is already (supposedly) dead because she fell down stairs. She fell down the stairs because she was going to get a sharpening stone that she only needed because she had fought Zoro with a real sword at his insistence. So, he feels responsibility for her death and carrying on the dream for the both of them.
- Despite his dream, we find that Zoro is repeatedly willing to sacrifice himself for others. Luffy initially finds Zoro tied up because he's sacrificing himself for some girl. During the Usopp joining arc, he actually blocks a shot from Usopp with his own body to prevent the enemy from going after Usopp. We all should remember the end of Thriller Bark with Kuma.
- Not only is he willing to sacrifice his life, he's also eventually willing to sacrifice his pride in order to get training from Mihawk. That is something he certainly would not have done early in the series and I believe he did it because he put Luffy's dream above his own.
- We also have his adult rivalry with Tashigi. Toss in him holding back against Monet and we can see that he, like Sanji, has a soft spot for women (or maybe weaklings in general).

Overall, despite being a big badass who acts like he doesn't care, Zoro seems to be very kindhearted and has about as much depth as you can expect from a character in a Shonen Manga.
