Berserk is an amazing story with amazing art.

Its also true that Miura went overboard with certain things. For example, I felt like Casca was raped too much. I think the rape by Griffith and that almost rape in her flashback were relevant to the story. I would even say that that scene with Guts trying to eat her nipple was somewhat relevant. But I think every other example where she was raped or someone tried to rape her was just excessive and edged on being pornographic.

It is no secret that many, especially on youtube, treat Berserk as a super meaningful masterpiece that is beyond aproach. I even tried searching for more negative opinions on it but scarcly found anything.
But just looking at it without all the rose tinted glasses - does it hold up? Did it need the rape horse, Casca enjoying being violated, the.starwars references or the pedobaiting
(Miura being a lolicon but nobody pointing it out could also be a topic...)
It's an adult dark fantasy manga, nothing weird here
Casca did enjoy it, she was mentally broken at the time but her body couldn't deny her deep rooted love for Griffith.

Sure, the the story with protag with one of the worst imaginable life stories is about wish fulfillment. Everyone wishes they had a pleasant life like Guts.
