I binged Berserk during the fall of last year. I was very wowed with it.
My thoughts about OP being a pathetic excuse for a story about pirates were further strengthened by reading Berserk.
Guts clears Condom-Boy as a protagonist. His story and the universe it takes place in are as edgy as they need to be,he is able to drive his own story,his story has real stakes and truly dangerous situations,and Miura allowed the villains to be evil and threatening.
Meanwhile,with Condom-Boy:
-His story and the universe it takes place in are a big joke. His story spreads the dirty lie that pirates are nice people who care for the well-being of society.
-Neither he nor his supporting cast can drive their stories. Their stories are driven by plot-induced convenience and stupidity.
-As everything always goes right in his story,his story never has real stakes.
-His story never has truly dangerous situations,as it is always full of conveniences that eliminate all problems in a short time.
-All the villains in his story are forgettable,and Lolda never allows them to wreak big havoc and be successful.
It's very sad that with Berserk forever unfinished,we will never get to see characters like the God's Hand and Griffith's soldiers in action or other things Berserk's universe has to offer. In a theoretically better situation,where Miura managed to finish Berserk and we could see all these things,Berserk's universe and its characters would put OP's to shame.
