Episode 304

To quote what I said earlier, "Hooooooooooly shit." 
The only part that makes sense to me right now through various awful web translations is "the door opens..." "a new world appears."
From what I've understood so far, this episode is going to rock the fucking boat on Berserk principles.

If you can't damage a godhand with a "beherit sword" then what can? SK couldn't even take Femto by surprise; W..T..F!
Oh! It's a Great Episode.
Just read the episode. Well it seems Femto just cannot be fucked with. In fact page 5 is a little confusing for me. Not only did Skully's attack have no effect of Femto, it was able to be manipulated? Without the translation I cannot be 100% of what is going on, but I wonder if Skully saw this coming? I kind of doubt it.
Skully's first blunder? (That we've seen at least.)
Looks like the Giant Vortex made an appearance after all. But who knows what it's effect will be. *Age O' Darkness*
Also, the fact that we've yet to see Rakshas makes his presence there all the more mysterious. He was shown for a reason...

Yes, Femto manipulated space and matter (whatever, really) to avoid the blow. And SK definitely didn't see it coming.

I wonder if cutting Ganishka up with the beherit sword was really required or if Femto could have made it all happen anyway. Looking at Femto's eyes on page 06, I'm more in favor of the latter right now. Yet, with the sword being covered with beherits... Who can tell? Maybe it was meant to happen.
Cronus said:
Not exactly the same thing, but yeah the result is pretty much the same in the end. Guess those members of the God Hand really don't fuck around, eh?
Well that's certainly not what I expected to happen. 
This is such a massive event. I feel so excited just to be able to see this happen.
Now that Ganishka is "officially" (as far as I know) done in, I feel very proud of Ganishka as a character. For the past year or so, I've felt a sense of dread with every episode that came out. Every time a new one was released, I thought," Great. Ganishka is going to die in this episode in an anticlimactic way." But this is definitely not that. Miura truly does blow me away every. single. time. I can't think of a much better way to die than to become a towering, world-destroying monster that bursts into a massive explosion of light, covering the world.
I think it's great that he was split by Skull Knight's strike. While Femto was "directing" the strike, it's much more comforting to know that technically Skull Knight's strike is the one who ended him instead of Femto overwhelming yet another character/entity.
That just goes to show the genius of Miura. He can create a character that you can connect to on a heart-to-heart level, a character you can back one-hundred percent, and then have that character fail and be destroyed without a trace of bitterness and sadness in the reader/fanboy. Miura is simply amazing.
Thus concludes the eulogy of Ganishka.

Most interesting part of this to me was the "wave" effect the rift had on the people below. The effect looks just like how Schierke and Farnese looked in their astral/spiritual forms. What his bodes for the future and the new world... I don't know.
We also don't know how SK escaped, but I think it's safe to say he'll survive.

I don't really see how that matters. Replace the beherit sword with a Louisville Slugger limited edition and I suspect he would have bent things around just the same
edit: I see what you guys mean, the dimensional cutting portion. Walter set me straight.
Is Femto saying it is a 'manipulation' of time to do that in the frame where he calls SK the 'Knight of Skeleton'? Don't have my references at work to check, haha.

Cats are great
So what does this mean for the Astral, Mortal and Ideal worlds? Are they just all going to begin to merge into one?

Actually, it's very much like the prophecy was described; the black clouds being broken up by the light and enveloping the dark figure which was blocking out even the sun. Hell, given the amazing spectacle we're seeing already, I wouldn't be surprised by some kind of grand Hawk of Light appearance in the next episode.

Well other than SK's intervention, this is what we'd been expecting all along, isn't it? At least it's what I had been expecting. Ganishka exploded/expanded and the power he had brought back from the abyss of the evil world was released into the world, changing it into a new one. I'm pretty sure if you search a bit you'll find discussions mentioning this exact same thing from a year ago.
Abul-Abbas said:
Only an infidel would have believed that. Shame on you.
Walter said:
Worlds. Merging?
Walter said:
As expected. All of Femto's power was barely enough to save his life . And Zodd's habitual pathetic efforts aren't even worth mentioning. (warning: this response may not be 100% objective, not to be taken too seriously)But seriously: first time we've ever seen Femto looking kind of pissed (page 04).
Rough translation of what Femto says: "Wherever time reaches a junction point you appear, the Skull Knight, the one who pursues the God Hand."Vampire_Hunter_Bob said:
Possibly. It's corporeal, spiritual and ideal, though. Some synonyms can be used but "mortal" is a bit misleading.
Knight said:
Uhhh. I don't think you understand what's happening here. Look at the people's faces.
Anyway, I'm wondering whether Ganishka's explosion will cover the whole world or just a certain extent of the land. Like, an extent covering Midland, Griffith's soon to be kingdom.
