Hello, anime fans and stans. Whether or not you've gotten around to reading or watching Berserk, you've probably seen edgelords and trolls online stating, "Griffith did nothing wrong." Even if you've never engaged with Kentaro Miura's story, you have likely realized that Griffith did, in fact, probably do something very wrong. Because both existing anime adaptations have failed to live up to the manga, Berserk is not quite as well-known as, say, Dragon Ball or Naruto, but it has been massively influential on media that came after it. To give one example, Attack On Titan is clearly inspired by the 1980s manga with a rage-driven main character that doesn't know when to quit. Many scenes of the humanoid Titans seem directly inspired by Berserk's harrowing Eclipse scene. It has also had a massive influence on dark fantasy video games such as Dark Souls. Nods to Bersek can also be found in Western media, such as the MC universe. Since you likely don't have a comic relief elf sidekick, if you're still brooding like Guts 300-odd chapters after the events of the Eclipse, check out these Berserk memes to calm your dark soul with a bit of humor.
