This is another excellent volume, and Berserk is quickly becoming my favorite manga. There is so much detail in the panels, while never really feeling too busy. It's great stuff, and the story is gathering steam, characters are getting developed, and we're starting to see the beginnings of the plot...
The Daughter's War is a sort-of prequel to The Blacktongue Thief, focusing entirely on Galva and filling in her backstory. It's a good novel, with a bunch of fun characters and a bit worldbuilding, but it also feels a bit like a filler story relative to The Blacktongue Thief.
Volume 4 is the best volume of Berserk yet. We learn more of Guts' tragic backstory, and finally move the story into the familiar territory of the 90s anime that I've seen a few episodes of.
Berserk really starts to hit its stride in this third volume. We finally confirm that the story being told so far is actually somewhere in the middle - or near the end - of the plot, and we get some nice scenes showing Guts' origin story.
What an absolutely fun, funny, and wildly imaginative movie. Made with stop-motion and weird little animal figures, Fantastic Mr. Fox is an excellent animated film.
My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting.
My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.
Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
• Reviews, where I post longer-form writeups
• Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
• Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
