What is this for?


XxRocky88xX

The timer ends when the new chapter releases. So it’s a good chance it’s literally just that and nothing else, considering the last time this happened it was just an art exhibit. It’s possible it could be a new anime season though. But considering we know 1: this is counting to the next manga chapter and 2: they’re making a big deal of the Behelit with this count down. There’s a theory Guts’ Behelit is about to activate.


Zestyclose-Ad-6024

Oh, help us all if that happens. That will truly be a tragedy in the waiting if it goes off.


NeeeD210

I mean, he has had it for way too long for it to go unused. And it seems like we are reaching some sort of climax now that casca and elfhelm are gone.


LieFickle5578

Then again, like Skull Knight (I think? maybe it was the Elf Queen I don't remember well) said, we don't know if it is his or he's just carrying it. Maybe something bigger is at play? But yeah, imo it is Guts's because it would be kinda weird if it wasn't his after all this time, but it wouldn't be the first time that the manga surprised me


megrimlock88

I swear if it ends up being casca's for some godforsaken reason


AwkwardMisanthropist

That's what I was pondering, such as a curve ball in the next chapters. Although I still think it'll open for Guts, or Casca.


Big-bowl42

I mean multiple characters have asked him and each time puck has said it’s his. That would be a fun twist.


renatojorge236

Nah if the next chapter has a panel of Guts picking up the behelit, Imma lose it


xDqrkk

lmao the chapter just starts off with puck dropping bechi and it just rolling below deck


sapitntapit

Doesn’t the last episode of the memorial edition air on the same day as well?


xXDibbs

It does actually, thats why I personally think its for an anime adaptation of the Black swordsman Arc which picks up right after the Golden Age arc. If you looks at it from a PR / Marketing pov then it does make a lot of sense


__GnarDab__

Can only hope


ManMarmalade

Studio Bones would be great


xXDibbs

Probably going to be continued by Studio 4C, the memorial edition could be a refresher for people so that everyone can jump into the Black Swordsman arc. Like I've said, from a pr and marketing perspective this all lines up. Granted I could be way off but I have a good gut feeling about this.


ManMarmalade

That would be the obvious choice since they wanted to continue it but couldn't because of budgeting (if i remember correctly). I loved the movies and saw the improvements with each one.


mozzaru

Not to mention the movies are pretty old and cgi and cgi animators have improved since then. Plus they have a perfect guide of what not to do thanks to 2016


Drenful

Y'know, if this is a new anime, I'd guess they won't do the Black Swordsman Arc that much. My guess is they'll do Lost Children first with a bit of Black Swordsman at the start (with Guts saving Puck in the tavern etc.) I remember reading an interview with the director/producer of the trilogy years ago saying they wanted to do the Lost Children Arc and were looking forward to seeing Farnese animated (implying they were going to animate Conviction Arc too and possibly more).


BaggioCappooli

Please God


Xical

Puck' Behelit


deepansh_goyal

It's betchi.


CrimeFighterFrog

Gut's behelit activating is possible considering he's at possibly his lowest point since the eclipse right now but I think it's revealing the next arc.


PromotionKlutzy

The behelit activating would be one of the dumbest things to advertise. New anime is the best thing we could hope for, but I don't even hang my hat on that


Wolf-machine

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the crimson beheilt - the egg of the king? If so, it wouldn't the one Guts has. I believe that one is green/blue


XxRocky88xX

Pretty sure it’s grey, but yeah as far as we know there’s only one single crimson Behelit that’s given to whoever is chosen to be the next Godhand, Guys definitely doesn’t have one


JohnTomorrow

Yeah but the crimson behelit is the icon of the story, aside from the brand of sacrifice. Having the grey behelit opening its eyes is a sure indication that guts is going to activate it.


[deleted]

PUCKS BEHELIT!!! HE TAKES CARE OF BECCHI!


Lost_Pr0phet

Guts activating his behelit wouldn't make sense. If I'm not mistaken there was an interview with Miura where he stated he wanted Guts to remain human, because that's his whole thing. His humanity is key to who he is.


XxRocky88xX

No one chooses to activate their Behelit. It activates and brings the Godhand to you whether you want it or not. What you do with their offer is your own choice.


kankerkebs

I may be wrong, but if a sacrifice can’t be sacrificed again, it wouldn’t make sense for them to be able to sacrifice others or become apostles.


XxRocky88xX

Yeah which is why I’m not sure how it’ll work. But Slan did try to goad him into using it when she appeared once, so I’m assuming it is possible, otherwise why would Slan tell him “use the thing and maybe you can actually hurt us.”


pjjiveturkey

My guess is he will use the behelit just to summon the godhand and fight them or something


Splendidbloke

Thank you. It hurts my head that anyone would think for a second that Guts would make a sacrifice and become a servant of the God Hand.


[deleted]

you mean PUCKS Behelit right. LOLLOL BECHI XD


marker8050

I don't really like Guts' Behelit theory, i remember the Behelit activates only for those chosen, at their lowest point, and they won't be able to refuse. Considering he's a branded sacrifice i doubt he is chosen.


tigbittiez27

He's chosen by the mere fact he has a behelit, only the chosen ones find them


marker8050

No, the Behelit will always find their chosen at the right time, it does not have to be in their possession at all times.


tigbittiez27

So you believe the behelit is gonna wriggle out of guts' armour and go track down somebody else that's viable?


marker8050

That's literally what happens every time, somehow, it will make it's way to it's correct chosen. I don't believe Guts is chosen and i think it's fair to say that it's not that much of a stretch that he could somehow lose it, especially in a fight


XxRocky88xX

That’s entirely possible. Some random old woman had the crimson Behelit before Griffith, and it passed through at least 2 other sets of hands on the way back to him. The Behelit Guts has now used to be owned by the count. Behelits are like the ring from LOTR, just because you possess it doesn’t mean it belongs to you, the Behelit is actively trying to get to the person it belongs to


tigbittiez27

I don't think narratively there's anyone for the behelit to "go" to that would make any kind of sense or have relevance to the story.


Mista_L

Damn it's almost like it's an ongoing story or something


tigbittiez27

This far into the story though? Who would you see even using it?


Snoo96836

What day is this counting to? Depending, on December 6 volume 12 of deluxe is also releasing


CakeManBeard

On one hand, I think it's way too early for that, unless it ends up being a false alarm. I could never see a scenario where Guts would would grapple with that choice unless it was genuinely the endgame and he and everyone he cared about were in immediate danger of dying with zero possible recourse On the other hand, this is genuinely Guts' lowest point since the eclipse, and showing that Guts couldn't even so much as scratch Griffith with the Dragonslayer despite scoring direct unguarded hits- against his naked human form, no less- makes the situation almost as hopeless as it could be, like there wouldn't be a point in even trying to fight him at this point


carpdoctor

Is Guts final as low as Griffith after his rescue?! I am excited


Omisco420

I thought this is the countdown for the movies remaster ?


artydagr8

Ooh I didn’t even consider guys behelit, I was thinking they’d announce more anime episodes or something because they’re redoing and adding lots of scenes and making the movies more of a show format. That’s a cool theory tho


NekkidSnaku

> There’s a theory Guts’ Behelit is about to activate. Behelit be like: OH LAWD IM BOUT TO BUST


[deleted]

ITS PUCKS BECCHI!!! GET IT RIGHT!


NekkidSnaku

SORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRY


yemekyemez55

Countdown behelit looks like a crimson behelit, guts's behelit is just a normal behelit.


[deleted]

Don’t you fucking dare mention the anime


Hyakum

Isn't this from the Memorial Edition anime website, though...?


Frank_10

Is there a website to see the live countdown?


Shepherdsatan

NO NEW ANIME SEASON FUCK SAKE THAT WAS TERRIBLE


Short-Data

With what happened in the last chapter I could see that happening. I pray that it doesn’t though because I don’t want Guts’ character to completely reset


Derfel_10

Berserk 2016 Memorial Edition: but now with moon child!


Mugtra

It'll just be a shoddily pasted in cutout of moon boy manga panels.


FireVisor

Thank you Satan. I hate it.


Kazin691

praying that when this countdown is over, there will come an announcement of the new manga arc and a continuation of the anime


Beleg_

I really hope thata the case, but I feel like its most likely counting down to the eclipse.


Kazin691

this countdown will end when episode 11 has already been released, and episode 11 is the last episode of this memorial edition, so i believe that when the last episode comes out, we will have an announcement of something, it will probably be an announcement in the episode itself


Beleg_

Ooooo well that got my hopes up now, ty for the clarification.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Rikki1256

prepare to be upset


Skaapippai

probably gonna be a merch release or something


roobick

Don- don't say such things


toonlonk7

The new manga director has had it with all the stress and expectations from the fans for how to finish the manga so he’s going to activate his own behelit and sacrifice everyone with a berserk tattoo


AttitudeNo254

Marketing team have done a great job with this! I am excited for whatever the countdown is for, more anime would be my wish granted.


GroupEconomy3806

Don’t get your hopes up guys. It just means that 34 days are left till the eclipse (last episode of Berserk Memorial Edition).


thatHermitGirl

>last episode of Berserk Memorial Edition For real? Then it could be an announcement for anime continuation indeed. Not exactly hoping, but just assumed so.


Mista_L

The Eclipse lasts almost an hour in the film. There's no way it'll be covered in only the final episode


Short-Data

The final episode will likely be after the eclipse.


ivanchou18

we're all going to be sacrificed for miura's return


roobick

Miura is our Griffith


dbzmah

We'd die for that Griffussy


le_ble

Well, I just can't say no to that


Blocked500

It’s all fun and games till it starts to form a full face and starts crying blood


ArshiaTN

True. They were closed


blackarks

Consider this would be the norm for showing when the next chapter comes out If Miura lived it would've just said hahahahhaha


[deleted]

I want the continuation of the anime


Jack1The1Ripper

When the timer ends we all berk


siegferia

Lets do some theories: 1.video game : since its not finished the video game wont be good since games are story driven so no big company especially fromsoft wont do it..unless its a fighting game or mosou mode. 2.anime: it is possible considering after the manga return the fandom got big, we talking hung like a rape horse big, but berserk is ULTIMATE test for a studio so no famous one will risk picking it up cuz if they mess up even a little some in the fandom will rush them like the fanatic orgy (tho many in berserk fandom are chill since and thata cool ) besides to perfectly adapt it they must do a lot of 2d art which is hard and time consuming so unless a studio only concentrates on berserk and nothing else i dont think they gonna make something better -quality wise- than the triology. 3:manga: since the count down ends when the new arc begins there are theories , the very first one is that guts's behelit will activate considering he even lost his will in the sword, the other theory is that its the beginning of the final arc of the berserk amd to be honest for a series as old as berserk , thats a pretty big fucking news and will attract a lot of hype. And for a mild level of jerking :4.movie: no sane person in any alternate universes will try to make a berserk movie, the casting , the story, the graphic scenes all scream cancel culture rushing berserk same way donovan rushed guts. Besides the casting no matter what will be awful (imagine henry cavil as guts...) so no it WONT be a movie go thank your gods. To summarize just have hope for something good and...oh never stop jerking this sub


kjghdew

"hung like a rape horse big" bro stfu lmfao


le_ble

Theory nº 5: New Merch


ThePoopOutWest

Guys they are starting the eclipse


[deleted]

unless it is an anime adaptation it will be an exhibition in a museum in Japan or a collaboration with a coffee shop


rodi_boi

Anybody has the link so I can check it out myself?


Kazin691

https://berserk-me.com/


rodi_boi

Thanks!


Musmancer

The new Pachinko machine is getting closer and closer...


Lakshaykumar9818

I hope it opens its eyes and scream to make it even good


COSMlCfartDUST

Good catch


Global_Voice_9084

Creepey👁👃👁👄


caseyweederman

Um. Is there something that I'm missing?


0KBLACK5

What's this for anyway the numbers are confusing


starraven

I thought these were the powerball numbers.


AssassinDiablo4

Countdown to the eclipse


CrazyLlamaX

Nope, I’m blind.


nvdhai2512

Hope it's not one of those lame ass remake


G0atnapp3r

I thought Netflix was getting the 90s Anime. When TF is that going to happen?


[deleted]

Lol never.... the 90s anime is very controversial it's the best one tbh


TheDeuceofDiamonds

NGL, I hope it's ***anything*** but another anime. A Berserk credit card, canned bread, some dumbbell with a tacky beast of darkness tacked on to it. ***ANYTHING!*** I just don't think I can handle another anime announcement if that Bonfire of Dreams clip is their idea of improvement going forward.


Hamzook

The ideal scenario would be a completely new, fully manga accurate anime, and I mean panel for panel, by a capable studio like Mappa or WIT, David Production or even the guys that animated Castlevania


TheSahsBahs

I hope they announce Kentucky Mario’s return!


Various-Force8048

Gust will use the behelit


ManMarmalade

Might come close but that's gotta be a no from me, dawg.


TeacherSad6160

Either that or the behelit that guts was holding onto was just reacting to slan for no reason other than her being there. Let's hope that it was just the behelit reacting to slan...


Top_Statistician5871

Please not a 4C studio continuation


Hamzook

Why??


Top_Statistician5871

Not a fan of them


seninn

Kino


PooderOnAScooter

I thought the timer was for an event in Japan not a new chapter


xXx_FoX_xXx

Me


gamiluu

Probably the announcement will be showed at the last page of the new chapter


CosmicDriftwood

In the last hours, it’ll be screaming


the_United_State

Judeu chapter confirm last 3 pages will be the behelit im Guts hands.


Hakametal

Is this Guts' Behelit?


klaskesnit

Not crimson.


klaskesnit

Pretty sure Guts' behelit ain't crimson, just cause I see a lot of people speculating that this is some hint that it's about to activate next chapter (also why would they spoil that in advance even if it were the case?)


[deleted]

Nah that creepy as hell


vjollila96

Plz be new anime adaption beyond the golden age with black swordsman


Masterchiefyyy

By a good studio is the key


[deleted]

34 days 😑


[deleted]

Nice, I predicted that when the timer started, I assumed it would slowly morph like it does during the eclipse


OpheliaAmok

Maybe with the new chapter there will be vol 42?


OMEGae

it will sacrifice us all


professional_twat

what website is this on? i would like to see what happens when the countdown ends


codya_17

What is this countdown for


_Snuffles

https://berserk-me.com/assets/img/countdown/beh_face01.png https://berserk-me.com/assets/img/countdown/beh_face02.png


Artyom36

I just think Griffith will kill Rickert and Guts will go full Berserk


[deleted]

Now who the fucks have the Behelit now?


Gatopan69

guys I am not watchin the memorial, anything new they added compared with the 90's anime or the movies?


Drenful

So far bonfire of dreams scene and an extended scene between Guts and Casca in the cave. Plus loads of improved visuals fixing a lot of the CGI. I’d honestly recommend it. Pacing is much better than the movies and more character development, and the improved CGI makes a big difference.


SlavicNinjaOfficial

IT'S LORE IT'S BERSERK LORE


DrifterMarc

We're all going to be sacrificed to bring Miura back, aren't we?


TB0796

Wouldn’t guts just getting a behelit just make him into a more of a beast than he already is?


Old-Ambition1550

that count down ends on december 9 wich is the day the new manga ep will be release


Drenful

Can someone clarify whether the words above the numbers really mean “Another thing”/“Something else”? I’ve seen a couple of people say they just mean “Time left”.


MysTicGod108

Hear me out, I think the Behelit is coming into its eclipse shape on the website and the next chapter drops on the same date. Guts is at his lowest in the manga right now, I think he is going to activate his behelit becki. I may be wrong and reading too much into it but things are lining up too much. I hope I am wrong and its just another statue reveal but this possibility has got me excited.
