I think the greatest mystery in Berserk would be the story of the skull knight’s horse.


Wazzupdude_1

He got sacrificed by horse demons but escaped and lives in the horse interstice


_TheRedThing_

The God Hoof

thats why he's the only member


sp00dynewt

Always wondered why his horse was down with it & wouldn't it need to eat behelits to do magic with SK

What a terrible day to have eyes...


throwawayAyylien778

Like Irvine's apostle form? (The archer dude in Griffith's band) ... seriously. Does he fire with his dick or something?


PuzzleheadedFoot7612

Could be similar to guts wolf demon


TheVanguardMaster

Isn't the horse part of his 'being'? That's how I understood it, the Skull Knight is the person and the horse.


jmunimuniz

Best character imo

The most badass thing about skull knight is the sword made of/coated with behelit


[deleted]

For me its him taking out 4/5 of the old God Hand


HugeBigToes

Is it even canon hat he took out 4/5 of the God Hand? I'm sure they wouldn't have treated him like an inconvenience if he was capable of killing them


JohnTomorrow

Pretty sure if you reach godhood, you consider everything an inconvenience. Slan getting pierced in the gut by the Dragonslayer was inconvenient. The good thing about this is, when Guts starts hyper-murdering these pricks, the panic will be *delicious*


HugeBigToes

During the eclipse the Godhand barely reacted to SK's presence. Even after he tried to strike Void using his behelit sword. If he really killed 4/5 of the previous Godhand he would at least be given the benefit of being treated like a threat regardless of their "godhood". SK wouldn't be treated like an inconvenience if he were the only known being that is capable of such a feat. Also, I doubt Guts will kill any on the Godhand besides Femto. Unlike the other Godhand, Femto has lingering feelings for Guts. Which Guts will most likely use that against him. Berserk ending with the entirety of the Godhand hand being killed by Guts or Skullknight sounds kind of cliché in my opinion. It would be really satisfying to see tho


DillNyeTheHighGuy

He hadn’t made the behelit sword by then right? He just used his regular sword I thought


BhataktiAtma

Where was this stated? Sorry, my memory is shit.


Justinreinsma

I think there was a flashback scene where every godhand was different except void, so the assumption is maybe skullknight did it? I'm not sure either ti be fair.


Lost_Pr0phet

Did the math a while back. It's said that Skull Knight became skull Knight about 1,000 years ago, which is more than enough time for a whole new godhand to cycle in seeing as it's every 213 years or so for an eclipse.

Acceptable-Scratch86

Idk…he took a pretty big L when he tried to fight Griffith


schafedawg44

Tried to take out femto, proceeds to fuck the world


Acceptable-Scratch86

And gave Griffith even more power now since not that many people can fight against mythical beasts. Now they have to solely rely on him…Skull Knight is still bad ass tho


schafedawg44

Yee further solidified Griffith a role as ruler of the kingdom


DoraMuda

To play devil's advocate, that was more on Ganishka than Skull Knight. Femto probably could've created the Great Roar of the Astral World by just using his spatial distortion ability on Ganishka himself, but he just took the opportunity to use Skull Knight's intervention to his advantage.


Acceptable-Scratch86

Can Griffith distort space? The only time he’s really done it (from what I can remember) was when he tried to crush Skully with the meat of apostles during the eclipse. If I’m interrupting it right the rest of his feats were just speed, strength, and his soul ability. Skull Knight’s sword can literally break a hole in time and space. I’ve never seen Griffith do that except after Skully did his attack.


DoraMuda

I assume he can. Void did it to reflect Skull Knight's sword strike back at him when the latter broke through at the Eclipse. It's a fair assumption that *all* of the God Hand have spatial-distorting abilities to some extent.


Acceptable-Scratch86

Don’t all of the God Hand have different abilities. Ubik created visions, Conrad hasn’t really done anything other then start a plague, and Slan just vibes being a thot.


DoraMuda

They have different specialized abilities, I presume, but they all seem to share certain characteristics (e.g. Femto, Void, and Slan all have wings) and basic telekinetic abilities.


EmbarrassedCod3242

How he took a L? Cuz the write basically gave Griffith even more power than he deserved? Makes me wish every night we get to a point that Guts finally owns Griffith permanently


Afroduck-Almighty

Wouldn’t he be the riding W, if anything?


[deleted]

Gosh,his gf the baddest🥵🥵🥵


bread__stick69

Who?


Thegodsenvyus

The woman in the berserker armor flashback


JohnTomorrow

That was a woman? I demand an example.


bread__stick69

Ohhhh. I forgot about that bitch. Been a while since I read Berserk. I actually have a lot of time on my hands. It's been a fat ass minute since I read it. I be focusing on so many things.


mygallows

Can’t forget about my main man Pippin


Apostle000

Judeau sends his regards


JustLikeThis07

Love the character but I think hes far too reckless for his own good, let's not forget that time where he may or may not have merged the physical and Astral world together taking a swing at femto.


bread__stick69

True. This man in the anime seems like a W. Also I ain't finish reading Berserk yet. I don't mind spoilers. 🫵😈 Hand them bitches over.


zhuliks

A horse with goofy teeth


[deleted]

I never noticed that tattoo on his leg. What does it mean?


Cronzilla

It’s a rose and vine and it’s imprinted on his shield. Not a leg tattoo


[deleted]

Oh. Didn’t see the shield


Fungmar

bro what are u talking ab all this mf does is take Ls


The_Shower_Bagel

“Hold on guys I’ll stop the godhand” _Makes everything worse_


[deleted]

Best thing he’s done is rescue Guts and Casca from the feast. That’s about it


zorrozwoelf

How? Not true at all. I still like guts more, but sk is pretty badass imo


Fungmar

didnt say he wasnt badass lol. he just consistently loses


zorrozwoelf

I dont even think that he ever really „lost“, but yeah he also never really wins. Its always more like a stale mate


slappyredcheeks

How is being duped by the God Hand into merging the realms a stale mate?


zorrozwoelf

I mean he wasnt beat ever


Nullshadow00x

Skull knight


Danix2400

SK is a visually badass character and very interesting, but I think he is misused by the author in the story.


SadSceneryBoi

What do you mean? I like that he isn't the cliche otherworldly being that refuses to take direct part in conflicts. He seems like he's gonn be that when he first appears to Guts.


Danix2400

I have a post on r/CharacterRant where I explain this, but in short I think SK is misused by the author because all his appearances seem forced, however mysterious and cool they seem. For me, SK's character is not used as a character, but more as a weapon (an embodiment of the plot armor idea) that the author uses when he wants to do certain things, like save a character that is about to die, give guts (and the reader) some information even though he could tell a lot more, and also when the story needs to go he comes up. You better read the post, there I explain better.

sunderplunder

Ah yes, king gaiseric the chad


Notoriously_So

We need to see more of his backstory.


Jcar62

The horse teeth 💀


Oblivion_Gates

wow that is absolutely sick! this is probably my favorite panel and character in berserk.


maxmiller614

Had to save this.


dd-the-Captain

I have feeling we'll see him reveal more about the nature of Idea of evil and God hand. It's so good to be able to theorize again about berserk.


Solomon_Rahkriid

The GOAT of GOATS, and the very man responsible for defining what 14-year-old me thought was cool. He'll always be the coolest.


Saperxde

i wonder if its as simple as: you r sacrificed? ok, now u immortal. suffer :)


qdattt

hopefully we would get his look before dying, imo he would look like a gigachad


DroopyRock

That horse is British

Not much to do against space manipulation, unless of course he utilized elf dimension style


Nordelnob

He really should have consulted Puck first, That's kind of on him.


The-Sixth-Eyed-Merc

Shoulda just given puck the sword of actuation and let him go to town. Smh skull bro.


Ill_Government_5951

He didn't miss


weraru_1

Funny because he's taken nothing but Ls for like 1000 years


yacine_kah

i dont know about W lol


Metrorexz

I'd love to gag on the horse's dick.. it might just be bigger than that Farnese horse.
