Skullkast

With the full gang reassembled, we discuss the creator of Berserk, Kentarou Miura: Who he is, where he came from, where he stands on the stage of other manga artists. Later, we spend some more time talking Mass Effect 3 now that Aaz is back to give his impressions on the game and the ending. SPOILERS! Also, Skype turns Walter into a Reaper by the end of the discussion.

Special guests Nomad and Gobolatula fill in for Aazealh as we discuss the trailer for the second Berserk movie, as well as Mass Effect 3. Along the way, we get sidetracked by all sorts of stuff, most of which made it into the Outtakes section at the very end of the podcast. Gobs also provided a freestyle rap. Enjoy!

With Griffith out this time, Aazealh and Walter dedicate the full episode to answering all the questions members have asked us over the past few podcasts. Throughout them we cover our experiences in MMORPGs, things that have surprised us in Berserk, what we think of the future of the manga industry in Japan, and more. We also talk about our impressions of Mass Effect 3 and Asura's Wrath.

We finally wrap things up with the Skull Knight, covering all his appearances from volumes 26-34. We also talk at the end of the podcast about our experiences so far in Mass Effect 3, which quickly devolves into Shepard/Wrex sexual positions.

Nomad joins us for a discussion on Berserk's music, and whether or not it's forever chained to Hirasawa Susumu. But the majority of this episode is more Skull Knight goodness. We cover his appearances from volume 18-24, with plans to wrap up the SK conversation by next podcast. We also chat with Nomad about video games at the end of the show, since Mass Effect 3 is looming, and Assassin's Creed 3's setting was leaked.

With no major Berserk news in the past week, we've adapted the show's format to allow us to talk about a single, massive topic: The Skull Knight. Aaz, Griff and I had an in-depth discussion of one of the most enigmatic characters in Berserk. We started with our general thoughts on him, and move into analyzing every appearance he's made throughout the series. As always, we all came away learning something new about the character, even though we thought we'd had it all figured out. Hope you guys enjoy it, because we'll be back next week with more Skull Knight discussion.

We talk about the Sea God episodes and what they mean in the context of the new world. We also broach the God Hand and Elfhelm with speculations about the future, and what kind of scenario Guts may face when Casca is restored. Our re-read this episode focuses on the Revelations episodes in Volume 17. All that and embarassing personal injuries during the user questions!

The three admins are joined by special guest from the forum, Gobulatula. We discuss Episode 327, the status of the Berserk movie in Japan, and our first re-read section where we discuss a section of Volume 10 that could have implications on the future. We also take user questions.

Meet Skullknight.NET's forum administrators Walter, Aazealh and Griffith. In our first ever episode, we discuss the anime project's Japanese theatrical premiere and the new episode, 326.
