Berserk Chapter 362 Discussion

ok, it has been a loooong time but we finally got a very good chapter, very interesting to see more about Skull Knight an these older Godhand members

I assumed it was Void who did the sacrificing to become a member of the god hand.



I dunno, wasn't there some condition that the person/people sacrificed to create a Godhand had to be someone important to the person they are being sacrificed for? Otherwise the sacrifice has no significance. I seem to remember that, at the very beginning of the Black Swordsman arc (before the flashback to Golden Age), there was some nobleman with a behelit who had the chance to become a Godhand if he sacrificed his daughter, and he couldn't do it. The way Gaiseric is holding the dying woman suggests a lovers' relationship, which makes me think he sacrificed her to gain power (I also seem to remember that one of the few things we know about Gaiseric is that he was the Alexander the Great of his day, constantly lusting after power and more worlds to conquer) and then immediately regretted it afterwards. It would certainly explain his immortality and knowledge of the Godhand.



Perhaps Zodd was also involved in this event. It's pretty clear that Zodd and Gaiseric have some kind of relationship stemming back to when they were both human, and I always suspected it was a Godhand/Eclipse event that caused the split between them.



I actually wondered if the sacrificed woman was Flora, Schielke's late mentor. If Gaiseric managed to save her from becoming a sacrifice, it would explain why she knew about the brand and how to hide it from bad spirits, and her long-standing relationship with Skull Knight.



One thing is clear, though: I have a lot of re-reading to do. :p

The former God Hand and King Gaiseric’s Eclipse moment with the birth of Void !

I wonder who that woman in his arms is (probably his lover) and what role she might play later.

It's always the same with Berserk. The wait was totally worth it.

Maybe Casca gonna die.

I've currently read 6 chapters. Is this manga monthly? Has it just returned from a haitus?

I think the we are supposed to get a chapter every 2 months but most of the times, it gets delayed. So we end up getting 2 or 3 chapters in a year.

The art was great in this chapter. I'm very curious to know more, let's wait again.

Could the woman Skull Knight was holding be SLAN?

I had the same feeling, honestly.



Isn't she the god hand that suggested that guts could join them cause he survived this far with a mark which happened way back in the black swordsman arc

were some of them different god hands or has it just been a while?

All of them were different except Void, so it's safe to assume those were replaced by Void, perhaps they died? yh that sounds about righteither they die Or there is a rule where once the 5th godhand is found and then the 4 Angels are summoned on the physical realm the other 4 must leave and the 5th one which was void is required to recruit 4 more godhand which means Femto currently if he succeeds to summon The 4 godhands in the physical realm after they destroy everything the 4 void,slan,ubik and conrad would once again leave and The 5th one femto would need to recruit 4 more godhands to once again repeat the process

Skull Knight lost someone he cherished, causing him to be consumed by the armor.



What powerful armor! The god hand looks very different too, except for void.
