Falcon of the Millennium Empire Arc - Part I

The Superculture Review

Reid and Gareth have emerged from screaming, blood red eggs as strange new forms that are more appropriate for this, the beginning of the second half of our look through Kentaro Miura's Berserk. On this episode, we begin a discussion of the Falcon of the Millennium Empire Arc (or Millennium Falcon Arc, if you're not scared of Disney), talking through chapters 177-197, "The Rent World" to "Trolls, in volumes 22 to 24." We've got thoughts on the relationship between Farnese and Serpico, this section's depiction of the new and improved Griffith, and, of course, some very good Zodd panels.

Next time: chapters 198-216, from "The Witch" through to "Corruption," in volumes 24 to 25.

A small note: If you like what we've recorded so far, spread the word and give our PayPal link a look. We're putting out this show because we like doing it, but if you're into the result and would like to help us recoup our costs and allow Superculture to continue more collaborative projects like this one, consider tossing in a few dollars or sharing episode links to others who may be interested in listening.
