I'm rereading the manga and I have a question that I've always suspected: Did all the pirate and sailing stuff start happening around the same time that the Pirates of the Caribbean movies came out? Because I always get major Pirates of the Caribbean vibes from those chapters.

Yeah the treatment of Casca (tbh most of the women characters in the narrative) is really bad and a mark against the quality of Berserk.

Like, Farnese gets kidnapped and sexually endangered gratuitously as well, and then her big return to the party moment is "well, we need you to look after Casca so we can fight all these cool monsters."

Not to mention the treatment of minor women characters in the story, like the villagers and the trolls or how the demon soldier army gets made.
