so bad.. so laughably bad.
if you don't like it just don't read it your comment in addition to being salty its one of the dumbest comments i've ever read
Wrong. If only people who liked the manga read it, then the reviews/reactions of it online would be skewed. We need both positive and negative reactions to properly assess the strengths and weaknesses of media. Sure, this "Romeo" user sounds rather primitive and unsophisticated. However, "if you don't like it just don't read it" is one of the most immature things you can tell someone.

Since rape is portrayed as something horrible, he clearly does not have a "rape fetish". He is just aware that rape is very much a real thing.
For the first plethora of chapters, I agree that the author was using rape as a catalyst to demonstrate how horrible society can be in the Berserk universe. I think the past rape scenes were necessary and warranted. However, I don't understand how people aren't aware that they're being overused in these recent chapters. I mean, it's just one rape after another. Especially with Casca. It's all it is with her.
The Griffith rape scene was necessary to demonstrate how wicked he's become, but the effect is lost because of how much Casca has been raped recently.
Plus, the author is laying it on a little thick. The past three chapters have just been continued rape/hentai with near zero substance. I think it could have easily been condensed into one chapter.

What stood out to me is how sharply this scene contrasts with Guts' and Casca's moment. I wonder if the author didn't purposely show us Guts and Casca having sex purely as a foil to Griffith raping Casca here.
Note how Guts was crying as he watched them. :\\
The Skull Knight's sudden entry was badass. I think it might've went over my head before: is that vortex Rickert was witnessing at the beginning of this volume (a few chapters back) the contained field where this horror was happening?
