Re: Berserk (manga) [RIP Miura Kentarou]
If it's his assistants working from his notes it might be worthwhile, but almost certainly weaker. If it's by anybody else I don't think a continuation is worthwhile.
The best case scenario is most likely an outline of Miura's notes combined with concept art. The second best outcome is having it be left as it is, especially if the latest chapter works as an ending (unsatisfying as it is). I'd much, much rather see a third season of the 2016 anime than have somebody else take over such an important work.

Re: Berserk (manga) [RIP Miura Kentarou]
On the one hand, Sanderson was left an unsalvageable situation. On the other, he really didn't even try to match Jordan's style. It was pure Sanderson, IMO for the worse.

Re: Berserk (manga) [RIP Miura Kentarou]
I wouldn't mind seeing what his assistants can do. He trained them for a reason. Worst case scenario they make something you can just pretend doesn't exist.

Re: Berserk (manga) [RIP Miura Kentarou]
My understanding is that he mostly trained them to do background work and stuff like that in his style. It's not a situation like Jordan where he knew he was going to die and left a bunch of notes or instructions.
Aortic dissections usually strike suddenly and without warning, and if he knew about it the fix is a simple stent placement. It's safe to assume his passing was a surprise.

Re: Berserk (manga) [RIP Miura Kentarou]
I just wanna know...
1 Does Skull Knight kill Void?
2 Does Skull Knight die?
3 Does Guts kill the rest of the Apostles?
4 Do Guts and Casca end up happily ever after?
5 What happens to the Idea of Evil?
6 Does the Eclipse cycle continue?
Man. I need to reread Berserk. I’m sure I’d have a bazillion questions, like with Rickert and Griffith’s city and whatnot.

Re: Berserk (manga) [RIP Miura Kentarou]
True. They will never be answered by the author.
But overall I assume the answers are
1. Yes, eventually.
2. He already died, he only exists to kill Void.
3. I'm going to assume no. Due to Brand when they die, they go into Hell.
4. No. See the Brand.
5. No idea, my head its endgame is the Idea of Good. Because for someone to be evil, something else needs to be non-Evil.
6. Who knows.

Re: Berserk (manga) [RIP Miura Kentarou]
I don't think so.
I think the counterbalance to the Idea of Evil is the acceptence of good and evil as parts of the self. The Idea of Evil in Berserk exists because people blamed all the evil things that happened, which were done by humans to humans, on "god". So the unconscious realm responded and created a god whose only function was to do evil to humanity.
Self-acceptance and the acceptance of human connections being positive and their rejection being the cause of suffering is basically Guts' arc.

Re: Berserk (manga) [RIP Miura Kentarou]
And acceptance of flawed self and others could be considered Good.
Basically Idea of Evil, could be working on its own anti-thesis.

Re: Berserk (manga) [RIP Miura Kentarou]
Rando question. What’s your single favorite scene from Berserk?
For me, it’s when Guts and… to avoid spoiler tags, I’ll say when Guts and the big dude work together to take down the even bigger dude ;)
At least off the top of my head. I need to reread it.
