The Superculture Review

Falcon of the Millennium Empire Arc - Part V

Episode Summary

Reid and Gareth are flying into battle against giant mist-men in this episode, which covers "Divine Revelation" to Hero (chapters 264-285) from volumes 30 to 32 of Berserk. It's mostly a whole lot of fighting this time around, but we also get Guts riding around on Zodd's back and more instances of one of our favourite character archetypes: nasty, slobbering demons who love to gobble up humans. There's also the payoff to Griffith's big plan, culminating in the pope doing a respectful bellyflop.
