    I understand if Berserk isn't for everyone, but the implication that all of the most horrific and shocking scenes are meant to be 'entertainment for sickos' shows not only poor understanding of the story, but also a near-illiteracy for media comprehension

    a freak virus has turned the entire world into steaming hot sex maniacs ready to fuck almost anything that moves your only hope to survive is to layer up in as much EPIC GAMER SWAG as humanly possible, rendering yourself 100% unfuckable

    Possession (1980) is a fucking INCREDIBLE movie and you know what else it is? Deeply uncomfortable, repulsive, sometimes-shocking, and miserable, and all that is used to service the message and experience the film is trying to convey. Not everything visual is for 'enjoyment'

    Some media isn't meant to be enjoyable at all and are trying to convey a very specific message. Berserk's philosophy lays between: everything is meant to connect you to the characters and the world, the highs of peace and action, and the lows of sickening horror and brutality

    The background is a lil simple compared to mayro and there's an extra finger but it's perfectly presentable art and has the seeds of a cute sorta Yoshi's Island-esque style thing going on. the guys in that discord are fuckin losers

    It's amazing and entertaining as a broader picture, but that doesn't inherently mean all the individual parts of the story are meant to invoke enjoyment - many parts are meant to invoke complete shock and disgust, an unforgiving reminder of what the characters are working against
