Kentaro Miura’sBerserkmay not have a global presence likeDragon BallorOne Piece, but it still ranks among one of the best manga in the seinen genre. Not to mention, Guts’ character is heavily praised even after transitioning to an anti-hero role.

Kentaro Miura narrates an epic tale of adventure and revenge filled with intense action and a gripping story, captivating several fans with Guts’ journey. Following a tragic backstory to his path of vengeance, Guts’ struggle is an admirable one.
Sadly, the production studio has fallen short in its attempts to adaptBerserk, leaving fans optimistic about the scope for improvement. Here are the top 5Berserkmanga moments fans are eagerly waiting to see in the anime.

1The Sea God And Gut’s Battle
Guts’ journey to Elfheim left many fans awe-struck byKentaro Miura‘s splendid narrative and creativity. Throughout the series, the legendary mangaka captivated several readers with his breathtaking designs for demonic beasts; however, one beast stood apart from the rest and earned many fans’ approval.
Guts’ showdown against the enormous Sea God during his venture in Elfheim arguably left the most memorable impression on the audience. Miura’s complex and fascinating design for Sea God is immensely valued among the fandom. From thrilling action scenes to Guts’ epic feats, his fight against the Sea God has all the elements to break several records once animated.

2The Guardians of Desire Arc Holds the Key to Guts’ Captivating Character
The 1997Berserkanime adaptation failed to enhance Guts’ character in the eyes of many fans as a likable protagonist. However, that was all due to the anime’s shortcomings in fully portraying Guts’ traumatic past.
True Berserk Fans Won’t Forgive Kentaro Miura’s Successor Kouji Mori if 2 Characters Don’t Get a Proper Backstory
InBerserk, Miura crafted a sorrowful fate for our beloved protagonist. Guts is shown as a man destined for continuous loss and trauma. Although the Black Swordmen arc had only a brief glimpse in the 90s anime, the manga featured a lot more brutality and emphasized Guts’ obsession with revenge.
After barely surviving against The Slug Barron apostle, Guts is abruptly transported to the astral plane where the God Hand and Griffith’s Femto form awaited him. Undoubtedly, The Guardians of Desire arc offers a more compelling glimpse into the horrors awaiting Guts before the Golden Age arc.

3Serpico vs. Guts: The Intense Rematch
Lady Farnese became a memorable part of the group throughout their travels and hardships. Naturally, Guts and Shierke were upset after Lady Farnese decided to separate from the group to return to her life as a noblewoman. Lady Farnese’s faithful companion, Serpico, accompanied her and even confronted Guts’ crew’s attempts to persuade her.
The second duel between Serpico and Guts took place in a small room, perfectly highlighting the display of brilliant strategy and brute strength between two fascinating warriors.

4The Moonlight Boy: One of the Series’ Most Shocking Revelations
The Moonlight Boy’s revelation is regarded as one of the biggest plot twists in the series. After overcoming several challenges on their journey to Elfen Island, Guts and his friends successfully regain Casca’s sanity.

During their journey, the mysterious little boy who seemed emotionally linked to Guts and Casca underwent a surprising change, leaving many fans in disbelief. Later, the boy who created the image of Guts and Casca’s child transformed into the man who tore their lives apart, Griffith. As Griffith revealed his true identity, he abducted Casca again and humiliated Guts, causing the destruction of the sacred Elfhelm island.
5Skull Knight’s Failure Resulting in Griffith’s Grand Triumph
After losing against Griffith’s new Band of the Hawk, Ganishka’s pride suffered greatly, which influenced his drastic actions. Ganishka was the leader of the formidable Kushan Empire, who sacrificed his people and many fellow apostles to gain immense strength, resulting in his transformation into a colossal demonic tree creature.
As Griffith arrived atop the giant figure, the Skull Knight emerged holding a sword made of Beherits, determined to end his life. Surprisingly, it was all part of Griffith’s intricate scheme, as he was patiently waiting for this opportunity and redirected the attack to Ganishka. The magical weapon destroyed the Kushan Empire’s leader and opened the link between the physical and astral planes.
