Berserk Chapter 364 Discussion

Probably the most thought provoking work of a manga to ever grace my youthful mind. What a journey start to finish.

The practicality of this chapter makes me wonder if Miura knew his life's status was limited, as if this would be the final chapter anyway. There's many 'goodbye' sentiments within: mostly family orientated closure - this wasn't just a goodbye to fans or Berserk, it was a goodbye to his close friends and family. In a sense he's also apologizing and wishes things could be different but this is just how his life has been.

I'm having second thoughts on Griffith's choice now and it's causing a cognitive dissonance within my reasoning of his commitment to become Femto. As if the old Griffith is stuck in a demon and can't get out, wishing things could be different, looking back on his life choices and wishing things were different. All in all accepting reality. This is Miura projecting and it makes this chapter so emotionally engaging and satisfying. Spectacular ending to a manga and a man who put everything into his work.

RIP



This was wonderfully put, I was wondering the same thing regarding the theme of wishing for things to be different. It really is as if Griffith was mourning that he couldn't reach his 'original' dream or ideal in a more preferable way than he did, turning his head while gazing at Guts in a mournful manner, as if he is saying farewell to the what could have been. And combined with the elements/projections of the late Miura himself, this chapter, within the Theme of Accepting already being a core trait of this amazing tale, is way more comforting than I expected.

Biggest Cliffhanger ever... pls don't end like this :(

Garbage chapter. Just comedy and exposition as per usual. Then Moonlight bastard child transforms into a crying Griffith. Great storytelling Miura, you really outdid yourself with your final chapter. I like the parts where Guts acts like a father though, that was the only saving grace here.

So this is the last chapter i almost cried



What an amazing experience i have been reading berserk



Im satisfied with the ending

I just read the chapter... no, I'm not ok! T_T

If this is gonna be the last chapter we get... I would be totally fine with that.

Honestly, this chapter kind of reveals how Miura would have ended this series.



I don’t really feel like the story needs to continue. Unless Miura left a very specific manuscript about how he wanted this series to end.



Nonetheless I’m content with this ending.

Man, what a cliffhanger. I gotta give credit to the people who called out the moonlight child being Griffith. I'm conflicted about whether I want the story to continue or not.

Don't cry because it's over, be happy, because it happened...



No words for this amazing chapter, as always, Miura blew up our expectations and left us with a possible ending. If Studio Gaga continues the story, I, for sure, will support their work. Thanks, Miura.
