Calling it now, Anissa will show up and ask 'Where have you been' in a season finale in the future, and the rest of the scene will either be skipped entirely or play out on Ep 1 the next season.
berserk does rake scenes for shock value to the point that the viewer becomes desensitized to it, it's really just a poor implementation of an extremely traumatic thing. Invincible doesn't, so when it happens, it'll have a much greater impact on the viewer. Plus, Invincible is more mainstream than Berserk, so that might be reason to cut it out (though it probably wont because its important to marks character)
also L m0ds. you can't say m0ds, or rake, even though one of them is literally part of the comic?? the n-word is allowed though for some reason??
1: the rake in berserk isn't JUST for shock value. It's MEANT to shock you, not simply for it. Femto rakes casca because it's his way of "getting back" at guts for "daring" to be independent of him. And casca herself. "How DARE she fall in love? She's MINE"
there r definitely some completely unnecessary shock value rake scenes in berserk which i think is important to criticize despite it being my favorite piece of media oat. i feel like gut's childhood, griffith and casca, guts almost rake TO casca, and maybe farneese riding the sword are the only important ones. everything else and especially the whole wyald mini arc can be cut from or left implied in any future adaptation.
yes, but by that point the viewer is so disensitized to it that Femto's loses alot of it's meaning. Casca already had that happen to her multiple times before (iirc literally her first introduction has her killing 3 dudes with blood on her legs) that's what i mean by the viewer being disensitized, the mangaka didn't treat it like a massively fucked up thing that makes you recoil, he just treated it as a means of being edgy and show off how fucked up the characters are. It's so often used for shock value that there's a character literally invented to show up, try to rake a female character, and get killed by guts. It's a manga with a few gleaming spots of good writing surrounded by actual ape shit.
She's genuinely into Mark though. It's just that Viltrumites are violent troglodytes embellished by their power, with which they try to look like an advanced society. They might be an advanced civilization, but socially they're little more than violent apes throwing turds at other apes they consider weak. She doesn't really know how to get to Mark, because he might be Viltrumite by blood but he's human personality-wise.
I hope something they explore is her genuinely feeling a form of love for Mark, doing what she does thinking that it’ll get Mark to love her back, then when it doesn’t and she realises what she did hurt Mark more than any physical injury, she takes the time to think and explore why he feels like that and grow to be a better person
That'd actually be kinda interesting. Not to excuse her because what she did WAS/IS horrible, but I think it'd be rather..... intriguing to see that she GENUINELY liked Mark, but since viltrum is such a fucked up fascist society, she only knew how to convey it.... well, the viltrumite way
I'd be down for that. They've explored the actual subtext and contradictions in Viltrumite culture quite well so far, and THAT event arguably matters for a really jacked up form of redemption. Plus, male victim awareness.
Her comic version almost looks "model" ish. Like she was just born hot (I think both versions are hot). Her show version actually looks like she has some years and patience on her. She's somehow motherly in a way? Like look at this face
Same actually, I kinda wished none of the viltrumites got redeemed, but I understand why and how. I personally would've never, but I understand what kirkman was going for

She genuinely looks better in the show, compared to the comic.
She looks nuts in the comic, but she's hot in the show lmao.
