254 Delayed... (no longer)

Post by **LordMune** » Sun Apr 10, 2005 7:56 pm

Can I have his e-mail address?

Post by **Tempest** » Sun Apr 10, 2005 7:59 pm

Nope. Sorry, but I was sworn to secrecy. Even by releasing that much information, I could be in danger of a ninja attack. I must be ever-vigilant.

"Dear Tempest,

Well, I am getting tired of doing Berserk. I am currently in the works to publish my real dream manga, where a lot of fluffy bunnies hop around and tell cute and insightful stories with a message to children, and constantly say 'I wuv you!' Anyway, Chapter 254 will be Berserk's final chapter, Guts goes into the ball midway through a dance and kills everyone, and by everyone, I mean EVERYONE. The ball dancers, his party, Caska, everyone. Then a giant chandelier falls on him and he dies. Well, hope this helps you.

Respectfully,

'Kentaru' Miura.

PS - I saw your Omake on those Evil Genius forums and found them hilarious, especially the one about the Potato Salad man."

.......I hope you werent trying to make a joke, cause if you were you failed miserably.

Wow. Thanks. Well. I guess having you tell me I'm not funny, I should just go kill my self. Oh well, I had a pretty good run.

Post by **Eldo** » Sun Apr 10, 2005 8:06 pm

Yeah, he send me an email too. Here's our emails:

Kentaru Miura wrote:To Eldo,

You're a pimp.

Your 0make is teh sh17z!!11!!

Kentaru Miura.

and I wrote back saying:

Here's what I wrote:Dear Miura:

Tell me something I don't know.

Maybe you don't give me material to make a decent omake!

Sincerely,

Eldo.

Mayhap your harsh words are to blame for the lack of action in Berserk recently? He can't find it in himself to draw pages upon pages of mindless violence if Eldo doesn't appreciate it.

Post by **Tempest** » Sun Apr 10, 2005 8:17 pm

Yeah, geez Eldo, way to ruin Berserk. God....

Shits, is that right?! Here's what I wrote in the 254 thread:

I wrote:]I hope I get to see some carnage. It'd be pretty sucky if Guts arrives at the ball in the last page of the chapter...and then we'd have to wait another 2 weeks to see the confrontation.

Look on the bright side Eldo, the next release comes out at the same time as the next EG release, since it is postponed for like 2 weeks, so therefore you will probably only have to wait for 3 days or so.

On the delay we can wait, I want quality not quantity, so take your time and do it when you have the time to do it. Good luck oro. Your school is more important than our next berserk fix.

Who is this Kentaru? Oh, I get it. It must be Miura’s retarded twin brother. No wonder the guy actually responds to your emails.

Wait, when did this become the Stupid Theory Thread?

Well, actually I recieved an email from the man just eariler before and here it is:

Kentaro Miura wrote:Eldo,

Sorry about the earlier emails, that was my evil twin.

Muira.

What I wrote:Oh, it's OK...I mean, I have an evil twin too. He tried to rape...wait a minute! Why the hell aren't you drawing Berserk?! WHO THE FUCK LET YOU OUT OF YOUR CAGE?!

And let's leave it at that.

Heh, that’ll do.

Good Luck Oro!

As people has already said we can live without Berserk a week or two max

And i hope you will never leave the editing to someone else cause your work is so much better than some of the other manga scans that i read.

Post by **Necromancer** » Mon Apr 11, 2005 1:38 pm

Poor, poor Miura, we all love him and we all force him. Hm sounds like he's a masochist.

But he misspelled his own name again.

Bah! It's the internet! Everyone can type their name wrong if they want to!

there was also that time last summer where we had to wait 3 months for the next chapter

Don't remind me. That seemed like forever. I sure hope we never have another break like that *sigh*.

3 months, I can only imagine. Glad I was not here during that.

But still, take your time Oro.

hmm if miura has his own cage...then why dont we send Oro there to keep him some company

, why am i not writing my paper btw...it is due in 6 hrs...

Post by **Starnum** » Tue Apr 12, 2005 11:10 am

Heh, yeah…we should send a whip with him.

Post by **Arresty** » Tue Apr 12, 2005 12:01 pm

On a related note, I had a dream last night about stumbling across another group that was doing berserk. I was like awesome, and I downloaded it. Then I opened it up, and it was the worst editing job I have ever seen. Text that was on the background was left in tact, but they used red text to type the translated stuff on top of it. The sentence structure was just terrible, and sometimes didn't even make sense. In case you haven't figure out this was a nightmare. The moral of the story is, wait for EG releases, cause they do a damn good job, and its worth waiting on Oro to finish up his tests and stuff, since he is pretty much the main guy.

Post by **Eldo** » Tue Apr 12, 2005 12:04 pm

I love fairy tales with morals!

Post by **Starnum** » Tue Apr 12, 2005 12:04 pm

Yeah, well we try, heh.

That reminds me of the dream I had last night. I won’t go all into it, but basically I had to stab this guy in the chest with my katana. When I woke up, I felt weird, because it was just over a domestic dispute, but I killed him. I thought, would I really do that…

Oh, wait. Maybe I should save it for counseling.

I actually tried to use skullknight.orgs translation with the raw, but i got through one page before I decided, not only did the translation suck, but its just annoying to figure out what balloon they are refering too. I gave up. I love berserk and because of that I am willing to wait for perfection. I love EG.

Arresty wrote:...perfection.

*Blushes* Well, we do care. I think that's what makes the difference. All the time we're trying to make Berserk better for everyone. I know quality is important to Oro. He's actually found a way to make the scans smoother and cleaner. He's shown me some comparisons. He's also worked with me on issues that mattered to me, such as the proper spellings of names and even paraphrasing to help the dialogue flow. That really means a lot to me and has made my role in this project that much more valuable to me. Oro can be an elusive guy, but I can tell he’s not just doing this for himself, and I respect that.
