A fan of Berserk created a stunning cosplay of Guts' famous Berserk Armor, which she wore at the 2022 Paris Manga and Japan Expo. Sadae Cosplay specializes in armors and props, and her rendition of one of Guts' iconic looks is breathtaking.
The Berserk Armor made its appearance in chapter #222 of the manga. It was forged by a dwarf blacksmith and has the ability to draw out the user's negative emotions, while at the same time suppressing their pain and fear, allowing them to bypass the limitations of their body. This dangerous but powerful item was once used by the mysterious Skull Knight to fight the demons and then left in the custody of the witch Flora, who then passed it on to Guts. The armor gives Guts a much-needed boost in combat abilities during the last part of Berserk, but this comes at a great price. The spirit that gives the armor its powers, if not kept in check, can transform the wearer into a feral, bloodthirsty monster, just like the berserker of Norse tradition.
