Feminism--making the world safe for bigotry
Walter said:I think you've misunderstood Berserk's Qliphoth. It was in existence before Griffith's reincarnation (thus before the God Hand could have "corrupted" it). It's the Astral realm where Nightmare Creatures gather and are created. It wasn't some happy forest where creatures lived in peace before the God Hand came along and crapped all over it. The only change that's occurred over the past few years is that the barrier between the worlds is growing thinner (i.e. Trolls. Ogre and Kelpie in Enoch).
That being said, I'd buy your theory if it were less weighed down with Kabbalistic terminology. If by "corruption" and "creating more Qliphoth" you mean that the barrier between the Physical and Astral worlds will continue to become thinner, then, why not just say so?
As for a balanced God Hand... are you talking about a GOOD Hand?
When I get the relevant volumes(with the official translations) I might feel capable of more extensive comment. As it stands I read those episodes related to the Qliphoth years ago and I've probably forgotten more then I remember.
As for "creating more Qliphoth"... maybe a better way of saying it would be "manifesting more Qliphoth in the material realm."
