Title: Berserk Manga AMV
Post by: Kornel Kisielewicz on October 30, 2006, 04:09: I want to share with you my favourite AMV (Anime Music Video -- actually this is a MMV), a brilliant piece of work done using scans from the Berserk manga -- if you want to get the feeling of the world presented in Berserk, it's a great opportunity. Although I must say that I'm not a fan of this music genre (I hate growling -- but somehow it suits Berserk). Here's the link on Google Video:

Post your opinions on this piece :)

I liked the video, although at times I wished it would slow down so I could see the sweet monsters.

Post by: Glowie on October 30, 2006, 07:35: Thanks for sharing this! The AMV is very well done and shows Berserk's bests sides if you ask me. That is, Guts berserking through monsters and Puck (the little elf/fairy in the very end) showing his -______- faces.

And the music?

Gotta love Dark Tranquillity ;)

Post by: Malek Deneith on October 30, 2006, 09:18: One question - anyone knows where to fetch scanlations of the manga? (Found one site but it lacks tomes 1-3)

Post by: Kornel Kisielewicz on October 30, 2006, 14:04: I've got all volumes on my HD (volumes 1-5 in PDF tough :( ), I can set them up on my server if needed.

Post by: Anticheese on October 31, 2006, 09:54: Bittorrent would be your best bet there, It means less drain on your servers and a faster transfer rate for those interested.

(Before anyone asks, I do not advocate the use of BT for illegal use.)

Didnt remember where I got it from so i uploaded the torrent to my webspace: Link (Hope it'll work - just use Right click-save as)

This is a tome or tow out-of date - torrents for the rest can be found here

Post by: Fingerzam on November 01, 2006, 00:04: My word of warning conserning that torrent (the one containing volumes 1-30).

It has chapters copy & pasted together into one folder for each volume, and nothing has been done to their names, so there will be files named "13.jpg" and "131.jpg" and you probably now into what order these files will go. There also seemed to be chapters by different groups mixed together (I'm not sure about this, but it really seemed so, cause the fonts changed between different chapters.)

So I recommend you to get the Band of the Hawks torrent for volume 4 and onwards (or buy the kick ass quality Dark Horse translations).

Post by: Malek Deneith on November 01, 2006, 00:46: Aye, I have admit that there are voulems that are a bit messed up - but so far only 13-th one was really messed up from those I've read. (Oh and "quality Dark Horse translations" aren't an option for everyone - Berserk wasn't released here in Poland, niether by Dark Horse, nor by any of our local manga releasing groups :P)

Post by: Malek Deneith on November 05, 2006, 18:33: One question for more knowledgable people - why does that young with look so surpirsed while looking at Gatts sword (after he refused to take any magical items from her) - is this explained later?

Berserk pixel art. I'm hooked on this manga now. :)

Post by: Kornel Kisielewicz on November 08, 2006, 17:46: Loool! That's a good one :D. But the funny thing is that because of the characters dimensions, the sword doesn't look so big now :D.

Anyway, this is not the first pixcelisation of Gattsu that I saw. Although they do not admit it, Gutts is starring in the excellent doujinshi game Valkyrie Fight Tag ( ass seen for example here -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5VQYk8WCjU&mode=related )

BTW, I love this game, it's the best fighting game I played ^_^. And works great as a stress reliever -- although I play it on Turbo Mode always :D. Try it for yourselves if interested -- http://www.the-underdogs.info/game.php?name=Valkyrie+Fight+Tag

Post by: Malek Deneith on November 09, 2006, 00:09: The game looks cool, got to try it one day... oh, and after viewing that AMV for the N-th time I came to one conclusion - if you ever plan on adding music support to BerserkRL that song from the AMV must be included as one of "soundtracks" :D
Title: Berserk Manga AMV
Post by: Kornel Kisielewicz on November 09, 2006, 03:51: If BerserkRL would have a soundtrack it would be just one song looped ad infinitum -- Berserk OST -- Susumu Hirasawa - Murder :-)

Post by: Malek Deneith on November 11, 2006, 01:07: Just got to volume 30. Is that the newest that got translated? And if so than how often new ones appear?

[edit]Woah, I'm cacodemon now.. got to go get Turgor's soul ^^
