What is berserk tattoo?

A "Berserk tattoo" typically refers to tattoos inspired by the manga and anime series "Berserk," created by Kentaro Miura. This series is renowned for its dark fantasy themes, complex characters, and intense storytelling. Fans often choose to get tattoos that feature iconic symbols and characters from the series. Some popular Berserk tattoo designs include:

  1. The Brand of Sacrifice: This is perhaps the most iconic symbol from the series. It is a mark given to characters who are offered as sacrifices to malevolent entities known as the God Hand. It usually appears on the back of the neck, but fans might get it tattooed elsewhere.

  2. The Sword Dragon Slayer: Guts, the protagonist of the series, wields this massive sword. Tattoos of the Dragon Slayer often symbolize strength and struggle against overwhelming odds.

  3. Guts: Many fans choose to have portraits or action scenes featuring Guts, the central character known for his immense strength and tragic life.

  4. Behelit: These are mysterious, egg-shaped objects with human facial features. When activated, they reshape their wielder’s destiny, and are often depicted in tattoos because they play a crucial role in the series' lore.

  5. Skull Knight: A mysterious character who acts as a guide and sometimes an ally to Guts. The design of his armor and skeletal features makes for striking tattoo imagery.

Since "Berserk" is noted for its detailed artwork, tattoos inspired by the series can be quite intricate and compelling, often requiring a skilled tattoo artist to accurately capture the depth of the original illustrations. Fans choose Berserk-themed tattoos not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for their personal significance, often resonating with the themes of resilience and overcoming adversity that characterize the series.
