Thats exactly how I feel too. The episodes were awesome and the art looked a lot better than I thought but while I was reading I kept asking myself what would page X look like if Miura was still here? Would he depict Griffith/Femtos astral form like that? etc. etc.The problem I found with this project (through the lens of the reader) is that it's a massive "what if". Mori is telling the story and I'm sure it's faithful, but it definitely leaves you yearning for the Master's true vision, pacing, and illustration. Imagine what this episode could've been like if he was still here.
I mean, what is there for him to say? He's had that same reaction ever since seeing him in the Hill of Swords.Unless Guts just became a savage gorilla after seeing Griffith )
Talking about the Hill of Swords, this entire 2 episodes just felt like the same thing but done poorly.I mean, what is there for him to say? He's had that same reaction ever since seeing him in the Hill of Swords.

Griffith wasn't just there and Guts met him suddenly, the boy that Guts has met multiple times in his journey turned into Griffith right in front of him and his thoughts were just "GGHHAGHHH GR-GRIFFITHHHHHH!!!11", it honestly just felt like a parody of Guts' character.
And the fact he didn't even turn around to check how Casca is doing, even though she was screaming her lungs out back there, felt wrong to me.
Everytime his rage consumed him before, Casca quickly became his priority if she was in danger. Not here.
Since you're talking about the Hill of Swords, if you go check it out you'll find there's actually dialogue and internal thoughts going on during that scene.
I think that was pretty much foresadowed in Episode 345.and the plan for the story was that Griffiths apostles would follow him to the island.

Well,, the Episode with Griffith's Army traveling on the braches smell to me a little like foreshadowing too.That enemies would arrive in Elfhelm seemed like a foregone conclusion, however that it would occur in this specific way was not guaranteed.

I believe there is Sonia as well. Because on one side there is the prophecy's Sonia of meeting Schierke in a moonlit forrest (on elfs island), on other side only Griffith and Sonia could navigate the World Tree's branches, so, Sonia is there like a guide for Zodd.For how Zodd got there...well he jumped down from the branches. So either he followed Sonia and an incoming army, or he just followed Griffith/Moonlight boy like he did before. He's his little bodyguard for like most of the manga.
Art is great. Most people probably wouldn't see a difference if they didn't know Miura died.
At least Griffith looks like Griffith again and not the moe shit we got the last couple of years from Miura. Oh, and some proper panels from Puck in his not chestnut form.
Some people here are right. We sadly don't have much to analyze like in the past with Miura. For example the excellent Isidro skirt flipping pages, little witch academia or the xth Star Wars joke.
Right now, though, their storytelling, written and visual, leaves a lot to be desired. Is Griffith phasing in and out of existence, or is this Studio Gaga’s way of portraying things like the arrows missing him from back in the day?
Why didn’t the armor take over, considering how apoplectic with rage Guts is? Will it take over during the upcoming confrontation with Zodd?
Why doesn’t Schierke recognize Griffith’s Od? She’s encountered it before.
Also this continuation will make re-reads fun knowing that the story will head towards an ending. Its better than re-reading and getting decked in the face with the cliffhanger we were previously on.
But Schraffl's point stands in that it seems Griffith intended to specifically use the boy as an opportunity to get in, and to then bring in his troops (how exactly did he foresee everything happening with such a perfect timing is another matter).
Before the continuation was announced, I had come to terms with Berserk being over, and @Griffith , as you were saying, I do honestly feel a weird sort of guilt for my enjoying this, even at a limited level, and even saying Berserk is still going. It just doesn't feel right to say.
