wanna read the new chapters so bad but i havent finished my reread
Not done with re-read but i remember enough what happened prior to these chapters to read them.
Impressions are positive, i was not expecting them to match miura and they didnt, so there was no way for me to be disappointed. The art for the most part was still amazing even if not miura, i loved the lack of proper dialogue, giving the scenes a lot of tension and letting visual storytelling say it all, particularly the expression, which convey the characters' emotions almost perfectly id say. Chapters had break neck speed pacing, which matches mouri's words on how they are planning on continuing the story; there wont be any personal additions, only things he remembers miura telling him, which is great imo. There were a lot of double spreads lol, and the paneling is really the one thing that will be noticeably too different, imo for the worse, but that's a standard too hard to reach so im not hating on studio gaga. At times paneling felt confusing ngl, and at times kinda ugly.
The character designs here are less "moe" for lack of a better term than in 364, face proportions are closer to miura's, caska doesnt look like a doll, griffith has slightly smaller eyes. Zodd i think was the only real miss of these chapters, he doesnt look that detailed, not only compared to miura's, but to the other characters in these 2 chapters. They did a great job overall, but they f\*\*\*ed up with him. I hope and honestly expect them to get better at presenting him, i remember spending whole minutes looking at all the lines miura would draw to make zodd as complete and realistic as possible. The muscles, facial structure and fur were so defined you felt you could touch them, and that was lost here. But i loved his entrance regardless, well executed imo. Final thoughts, its clearly a passion project, and while yes shogakukan is ultimately making money off this, mouri and studio gaga are trying their best to honour miura, and that's enough for me. I think they did a great job, they got some big ass shoes to fill.
waiting for the first 3 deluxe volumes I ordered to come in the mail... so excited to start reading this
What are your guys thoughts on chapter 83? Hadn't even heard of that until today
Btw for anyone interested there's a supercut on youtube that combines the best parts of the movies and the 1997 anime. Its English dubbed for consistency and cause the dub for it was top tier. The animation switches may be jarring for some, but it's a really well done cut that combines scenes that were only done in one version together
I think I saw this once years ago - is it nine hours long? Also would you be able to link it?
Nigga watched the Eclipse in his formative years and was never the same I’m crying
Been sending the mangas to my boy in the pen. Super happy to be sharing the story with someone, none of my other friends will read
Man
Much love and power to the both of you

Amazing chapter. I can tell Miura was really into spirituality and the occult. The collective consciousness of humans manifesting their own Gods and the magic with schierke and Flora. You can tell he really researched this stuff. These are all concepts I actually believe in so its cool to see. I also fw the dynamic of Grifiith being the chosen one by God while Guts and Casca are the damned sacrifices
