Idea of Evil: The Golden Age - Part IV

The Superculture Review

Reid and Gareth have applied droplets of blood to our audio behelit and summoned the end of The Golden Age with a look at chapters 70-94 ("Requiem of the Wind" through to "He Who Hunts Dragons") in volumes 12 to 14. We spend this episode discussing the Eclipse, the infamous climax to Berserk's extended flashback sequence, which includes more conversation about the objectification of Caska, lots of talk about the packed menagerie of demons drawn for this section, and thoughts about the cut chapter that sees Griffith meet the god who gives this podcast its name.

Next time: the Conviction Arc begins in chapters 95-125, from "The Black Swordsman, Once More" through to "Morning of Truth," in volumes 14 to 17.

We've also created a PayPal link if you're enjoying the show and would like to help us recoup our costs and allow Superculture to continue more collaborative projects like this one.
