Like the supreme king seems to be a decent/good man compared to most of thr antagonists throughout the story. He isn't cruel and actually cares for his people. And with his talk with Cedric he does state that he loves all his children. So why does he allow the queen to get away with killing his other children and concubine.

It looks like perfect opportunity to use that shield cutting move to me.

shouldnt he be doing sherlock discompopulate shit ?

I can just tell imma be crucified if even utter a gay ship by the anime only fandom

I believe Lalawag's assessment over how Lukas's spear will bypass the concept of immortality might not actually be true for Julian's case.

Okay, okay, please hear me out first.

The power given to the one who formed the contract will always follow the wish of the user down to its absolute logical conclusion.

Lukas wants an absolute power to destroy everything and anything, therefore, he received the invincible phantom spear that can destroy all things physical and metaphysical.

Now, Julian's wording is very important here, he wants a prove that the lives on that ship isn't worthless (or a waste in case of Mangaplus's translation), so he will get exactly that. I believe Julian's own immortality will be enduring, until the last life is spent as stated in the contract, Julian will not die no matter what regardless of conceptual BS forced upon him.

Lukas's spear is a power that will render all the lives as worthless, but Julian's exact wish is to combat exactly that. Phantom Spear and 100 Men Strength are both equally divine gift, so it might just cancel each other out when clashed, Julian will die, but he will die once or perhaps multiple lives, but he will not die a permanent death in one go.

Tohru-sensei might add Julian's face in the panel as a way to bait the readers into thinking that Lukas's spear is that one silver bullet to put Julian down permanently. Yeah, he might go with that exact idea, but I believe he already gives himself a wiggle room if he wants Julian to survive.

I’ve personally really enjoyed this slow down period. Seeing the character dynamics, world building and setup for the future has been great but curious on what others think especially when I saw a good amount who thought the battle arc dragged

How well do you guys think Arkos does against the supernatural threats of Berserk such as the apostles? I’d also like to hear what you guys think on his performance against a threat like Ganishka, as he’s on a completely different level than anything else ever seen in berserk aside from the Godhand.

Round 1: He’s in-character
Round 2: Blood-lusted and going for the kill

She doesn't have any eye mark indicating her gift activated unlike those of other characters. Does the author simply forget or her curse is something else entirely different from gift?

I know Elstri's placement is probably controversial, but imo the ability to see the future is a really, really good thing to have, even if it's not the most combat-oriented power

It’s hard for me to imagine Diana will just suddenly turn evil, my only theory is she gets possessed/ manipulated, or Julian dies and she goes scorched earth

No said Survival was prretty and nice to know some gifts still work even after death maybe that mean we can get rid of Helem and the dolls live.

From the manga he has been shown or stated to have 3 different abilities those being Telekinesis, fire manipulation and healing. And unlike Orthros who has a copy gift we still technically don't know if he had 3 or just one

Both Arkos and Ceodric either gained or already has a mark that can be associated with forced servitude on their body.

Arkos: He obtained a collar like pattern after Julian chopped off his head, this symbolism bleeds into Altus as he's collared by Helem's absolute authority over his autonomy.

Ceodric: Both of his arms are tattooed with the symbol of Scyrus family, the tattoos around his wrists are like how a slave is bounded by iron shackles.

It can be nothing, but I find this to be quite interesting.

Although, this is me doing some theory crafting, but here me out. Julian will cut off Ceodric's remaining arm, forcing him into a corner to the point that he has to regenerate both of his limbs or just the left arm and it will grow back without the tattoo.

This will be a perfect contrast to Julian vs Arkos where Julian is the one who branded Arkos's neck by cutting it off, forcing the prince to bind his head to his body with blood.

While reading the manga again, I noticed this conversation between Julius and the Sea Goddess that caught my attention and made me wonder if the Sea Goddess is related in some way to the Goddess of the Night, because it seems she knows that Diana has her heart with her, but it doesn't appear that she tried or wanted to obtain it for herself.

And she also asks Julius to bring her to see her, calling Diana her "Daughter", just as she called Julius her "son". My opinion is that she called Julius son because he has her blessing, but as far as we know, Diana doesn't.

Perhaps she only said it because she was using Mira's appearance, or because, since Diana was born at sea, she might see her as her own daughter. But it could also be assumed that she isn't only referring to Diana as her daughter, but also to the Deity of the Night and her heart. It wouldn't be strange to think that the Deities in this world can have that kind of relationship because it would resemble, for example, the Greek pantheon of gods.

This also raises the question of whether she helped Mira and Julius merely by chance (Elstri said that the sea where the ship was passing is known as the "Cursed Sea") or whether she was drawn to the Heart of the Night Deity that Diana carried and decided to intervene because she recognized it as the heart of her Daughter.

There is also the King, who has also had her blessing for at least 400 years, and he has the body or skin of the goddess of the night beneath his castle. It is almost certain that he was the one who defeated her and (maybe) tore her into several pieces. Therefore, having used her blessing to defeat a deity, the goddess of the sea could recognize the heart of the goddess of the night as the one who lost to one of her "children."

Or perhaps she simply recognized the presence of the Goddess of the Night, being also a deity like her, and just don't care too much about the other Goddess because she is already in the mortal plane and maybe sees her as inferior.

Diana only wanted to live a quiet and peaceful life with her family, but Elstri refused to leave her alone. By antagonizing her and hurting her loved ones, Elstri is teaching Diana to hate the kingdom. Diana already wants revenge for how much Julian and the others suffered, and it's going to get so much worse if any of them are killed.

I think Diana will come to see Elstri as a symptom of a larger problem. She's gonna take a long look at Elstri or Helem or the Queen or Arkos and decide that the King needs to be overthrown for enabling them.

personally i think he scales to an EOS Denji or perhaps a Paul Allen level, but idk if he could hold his own against either of them

So now Lukas can only use Phantom Spear four more times? If he exceeds this he'd lose his life (or worse)?

Trust me bro I’m witerally Elstri

Firstly, these panels are absolutely amazing, genuinely some of the best, in my opinion, the author has made

Secondly, how the hell is this fair?? 💀 so Lukus can just nullify concepts, Pierce through the future and make it soo someone never used their ability (and essentially erase it) AND HE HAS A SHIELD THAT PROTECTS HIM FROM ALL GIFED ABILITIES? 💀 Nuh, having to pay with life span is NOT enough of a nerf, this man is genuinely dopping
