Close: it was "Barry Bonds no jutsu!" (Barry Bonds, for those who don't know, is one of many baseball players who have been accused of using steroids.)
:LOL:
That was a little too sofisticated for me.

The fact that I dont know a shit about baseball is probably why I couldnt have considered that one.

Where I live the only publicitied (sp?) sport is soccer, not meaning that everyone likes it (I really cant enjoy seing a bunch of idiots running around and kicking a ball, though thats only my opinion).

Anyway, thanks for telling me what was really said. :D

Episode 17, such as it is, is up.

Sadly, this is where I call it quits. I know it's kind of anticlimactic, but I threw this together figuring that a lame ending is better than none at all. On the bright side, ending it here means that, unlike in the anime and manga, the Hawks actually get a happy ending. Thanks to everyone for your continued support.

Nothing that comes after this in either the anime or manga is very important?

*Smacks hbi2k with a rainbow colored salmon* Sorry, that's not very funny.

Obviously not.

I do hope you'll reconsider. What you've done up to this point has been really awesome.

You should've cut briefly to a couple of parts of the eclipse and then cross them out saying that nothing else happened in Berserk. But still, great series, do tell us of your future work if you think it's any good.

Just did a marathon of episode 6-17 cause I hadn't seen them. I'm deeply saddened you called it quits, right when all the crazy shit happens too. I really wanted to see how you handled those parts.

I've posted two more vids that might be of some slight interest to Berserk Abridged fans. Sorry if this is slightly O/T, but my altered versions of the Berserk characters do make a couple of brief cameo appearances:

Ahh you dirty rat! I cried tears of sadness when I saw the 'last episode.' However that is now rectified with tears of happiness. Lets go episode 25!

So, should I be thrilled that the Abridged series will be continuing after all, or seriously annoyed because you pretended it wouldn't be? Hmm....

Oh well, might as well be happy. Thanks for continuing after all!!!! Your work is much appreciated.

All together, shout it now!

So let's tell the world about it now,
Happy days are here again.
Your cares and troubles are gone,
There'll be no more from now on!

When I saw that eps 17 was the last, I was like, 'Oh crud monkeys' (in the prescence of my little sister, so no swearing :P) Is it true that you'll continue? Zodd is freaking awesome in your abridged series. I watch the episode where he compared Berserk to Naruto then becomes a butterfly like once a week, just because it's so funny. My bro and I'll will go at dinner, 'Do I look like a butterfly?' In a dorky voice, then the other will say, "Uh, close enough" just like your characters, then laugh our butts off.

Anyways, the abridged is just too funny, especially because one time I confused someone who did a bad Guts costume once as a Cloud costume at a convention.

Heheh, nice. The nerdcore section was hilarious.

Yep, no better time than "whenever the hell I feel like it". Glad to see a comeback of the series. Till next time, take care.

*resisting urge to quote hilarity ... *

Anyways, I think that my favorite character is Frank, he better make it into more of these! He's like one of those characters everyone hears but doesn't see. Like Al in ReBoot.

Haha, funeral DJ. Was that Frank?

I come back from a long wait expecting a new chapter, instead I get this, honestly I can say I enjoyed this a lot more than I would a new chapter, good work man.

I can't find a link to the first episode of these abridged series. The earliest I can find is number two. Does the first exist?
