Evil Genius

Hey I know there are some berserk fans out there with tattoos, post yours here I wanna see!!!

Heres mine:



It doesn't seem symmetrical in that picture because the skin on my neck is kinda being stretched, but the guy did a really good job and it actually looks perfect when I am standing up straight.

I got it on the day after halloween this year, at a shop called "Precious Slut" in Santa Barbara, CA

I showed the guy this picture of a necklace with the brand symbol and he immediately thought it was some kind of medieval European rune symbol. He started going off on a tangent about rune symbols, talking about them for almost 5 mins. I told him it was actually from berserk and he seemed disappointed that he wasn't right lol.

Necklace:

Nice tattoo. You should check out some of the other threads. I believe theres some tattoos in the cosplay

Welcome to the forum too. Stick around... its quite entertaining while we wait for releases.

Welcome to the forums, and nice tattoo! I couldn't/wouldn't go for the neck for mine, because of the still social stigma (at least over here, especially when having a job interview or such, a tattoo especially on the neck would prompt some awkward responses) and because the parlor where I had mine made doesn't tattoo hands and necks at all. Anyway I got my brand tattoo the day before halloween this year, on my right shoulderblade (pictures are from the mirror). The guy asked what it meant and I answered "it's the brand of (personal) sacrifice(s)".

Kinda hard making a good photo of your own back at 8 o clock in the morning after partying



Now that I think about it I could probably post the second picture in the mindwerks mugshots thread under the hilarious title "OMG I got a camera for a face!!"

Anyway that's what it looked like the day it was made (and probably a better photo because I didn't take it myself) still oozing blood because of all the demons around:



Edit @ lonewolf: I always kinda laugh at that guy from the cosplay thread you linked (the one with a few pictures below the guy with the Berserk kanjis on his back). Not because of the stature but because he made a Guts cosplay costume and CLOSED THE WRONG EYE!

Nice tattoo Aether! Thats kinda weird how it happened to both of us around halloween lol.

Before I got mine on the neck, the tattoo guy seemed really concerned because I am kinda young (22) and he didn't think it was a good idea if I was going to have to look for a job. I told him I already have an amazing career started, and I had him put below my collar line for collared shirts so nobody would be able to see it in an interview if I ever have to find a new job.

If you're ever worried about a job interview or anything where a tattoo might hurt your character, you could always put a bandage on it and pretend it's a cut or a bruise.

Well, it would only work on the initial interview of course.

Well for me it is personal too, beneath the Berserk meaning of it. On July 22nd this year I was caught driving under the influence, and lost my license officially for a month (although it would take almost 5 before I got it back, stupid tests I had to made and the doctor slash psychiatrist slash asshole took 3 month to write the results) so I was kinda "branded" by the police too. That tattoo now also reminds me of that time, and to not drive anymore when I do "it".

Weird thing is, ever since I got it, I have had many near death experiences and general bad stuff that didn't seem to ever happen before I got the tattoo (really bad car accidents that weren't my fault, big fights that I wanted no part in, people trying to steal stuff from me etc). It was probably all just coincidence, but sometimes it makes me wonder...

Oh come on Star. Being haunted by batallions of demons and monsters every single night isn't thta bad.

OK, I'll shut up now.

Edit: Oh yeah, nice tats there everyone.

shit, now im REALLY considering more than normal gettin the brand..sigh. well if i do im gettin it on the neak for sure. im in the arts so...it REALLY doesnt matter if i get a tat, hahaha. but its easy to hide because i have long girly hair i can jusr wear down in case of job emergancy. thats right, i got it aaaaall planned out.

anyway, nice tats guys! keep 'em comin!

You should get a chest tattoo like Casca. I wanted to get the brand on my hand like Judeau, but then I thought about it. There are a ton of reasons not to get a tattoo, my main one is that I couldn't handle the permanence of it. The reason I ended up not wanting a brand is because I would feel like ghosts would end up following me around more than normal. I guess I'm on a similar page with Starnum on that one. I'm only 19, so maybe in a decade or two I'll do it. But, then again, the whole brand attracting ghosts will spook me out of getting it. I think I'll just get a tattoo of Gut's helmet, or maybe his sword.

Get one on your forehead like Corkus. If you did that.....The only things that would be following you around would be packs of smokin' hot broads.

Just go for it and complete the Caska costume, get a tat right on zee boob. That way its easy to hide!
*i mean that as a joke*

Hello everyone.
I couldn't pass up on this thread since I hadn't ever actually seen anyone get the brand tattooed with the blood. I got this one back in February. I figure, hell I'm always fighting my own demons so may as well have it bleeding always.

Wow, now that's hardcore!
