So a bit of symbolism I have never seen anyone comment on is what fingers each of the 5 Godhand of Berserk represents.

From left to right, we first have Conrad.

Starting with the Pinky, there is Conrad. The littlefinger unlike the rest has little symbolism behind it.

He is the forgotten member, the one with a very mundane name, who never really does anything to stand out, and who's demonic form is that of a giant bedbug.

Next, the Ring Finger is Ubik.

The ring finger is the mystical finger, the one given higher signifigance than the rest of a mytholical scale, and fittingly, he is the most blantly open and frequent about making use of his magical powers to compensate for his less than impressive body.

The middle finger is Slan, the one who is the embodiment of everything evil and disguisting about sex in all it's forms.

The middle finger is, fittingly enough, the finger of vulgarity, with the raised finger along with a fist used, having become a go to insult due to it's visual similaity to an erect human dick.

The index finger is represented by Femto, the evil messiah of an artifical, false god.

As the index finger he points the way, showing the path for those around him to follow, wheter if be conquest, or helping him destroy his former, closest friends in the worst manner possible.

But despite appearances, he is not in charge.

Symbolizing the thumb, is Void, the real leader behind the Godhand, the leader who the rest intentionally or othervise follows.

They are all under his thumb so to speak.

He is also the most vocal about the groups misson to enforce the "Flow of casuality", or in other words, putting his thumb of the scales of destiny.

They look so silly (Ubik spinning around, lol)... when you remove the context of the God Hand's very awful "whoopsies".

they’re on their way to the next sacrifice

Don Knotts (The Incredible Mr. Limpet, The Ghost and Mr Chicken, The Reluctant Astronaut)—Just look at him. He’s just a lil scrungly guy. Also he started entertaining as a ventriloquist, and there’s nothing scrunglier than a ventriloquist. In all seriousness, Don Knotts’ career is singularly unique. His speaking voice was iconic, and he used it to his advantage and played it up – see also the included YouTube link to his small role in No Time for Sergeants [link]. He not only played second fiddle comedic character roles, but also played leading comedic character roles. He didn’t need a sidekick for his movies but he could *be* the sidekick if needed. That’s key to Scrungly Little Guy™ behavior, in my opinion. Knotts undoubtedly influenced many comedians and sitcom characters in both his lifelong film and TV career – and I do mean lifelong, as his final role was in 2006, the year he passed away! In the 70s, he became a frequently used actor in live action Disney comedy films for kids like The Apple Dumpling Gang and appeared in many children’s programs. Knotts was said to be one of the nicest guys in Hollywood, which is important for Scrungly Little Guy™ lore.

Conrad Veidt (The Cabinet of Dr Caligari, The Man Who Laughs)— oh my god look at him in Caligari. I specifically said that he's from this because him as Cesare is just. MMMMM. he's so wet and sad and scrungly. and little. he's like a kitten left alone in a dark alley except he's also killed people (not his fault). something wrong with him (Cesare). as for Conrad himself. oh my god look at him... them big ole eyes and the walk of some fucking thing creature

This is round 5 of the contest. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. If you’re confused on what a scrungle is, or any of the rules of the contest, click here.

Don Knotts:

TBH, I was first introduced to Don knotts in things like three's company, the og Scooby-Doo cartoons, and later on that Disney chicken little movie. He's probably most remembered from his time on the Andy griffith show. But just look at him! Don't you just wanna put him situations?

When you say scrungly his face is just what immediately pops into my head

Don Knotts plays in most if not all of his filmography someone who is kinda dull-witted, afraid of his own shadow, or kind of cowardly. He is the scrungliest of scrungly people!  

Conrad Veidt:

I mean just look at him. The wet cat energy. The ghostly eyes. He did the monster mash before anybody. Where would we be today without him, he even has one (1) song on spotify. I regularly forget he's dead and wonder what his next movie will be. He slays in any role. The Ultimate Skrunkle.

He's the ultimate scrungly to me, the basis for many of our scrungly guys today. he's so skinny and pale and he wears so much eye makeup

He was THE bisexual goth tumblr sexyman of early film. Seriously the old timey Tumblrinas would send him fanmail about wanting him to choke them. He inspired the designs for the Joker and Jafar,and was nicknamed the “Demon of the Silver Screen” for his horror roles. His first wife divorced him for crossdressing. Hitler sent him hate mail for speaking out about antisemitism. He really loved his wife and told the Germans to go fuck themselves when they threatened his job if he didn’t divorce her for being Jewish. Just look at me and tell me this guy isn’t scrungly he’s like a personification of the emo kid from Horton hears a who

"we'll see," conrad smirked back, entirely enthralled with the constant flirtation occurring between them, nearly palpable now. "clearly, that was a mistake!" the boy giggled, squeezing the other's thigh again playfully. "in my defense, your bio was ridiculous. some things just can't be outshone by a pretty face," though, those words created quite the contradiction. brow raised, "i've heard the bathrooms on here are pretty spacious."

"mm, keywords being for now." bentley pointed out, laughter falling from his lips. it was weird, a strange connection, really.. wasn't even sure if anything would even happen between the two after -- especially when he wasn't the type to get into relationships. "i knew you were attracted to me, yet you still swiped left." he couldn't help, but playfully jokes with the other. "oh? now, you're talking."

I just wanted to say that the discussion around what Griffith really thought of the Hawks is addressed quite directly in chapter 77 where in the 'Reality within his Conscious Realm' Griffith asks Ubik and Conrad, "Which way's the castle?" and they say, "Ah, yes, boy. Your FRIENDS said they'd wait for you there." (they did not use caps, but still). And then Griffith goes there, and it's just a mountain of corpses

That's a good point actually. One of those little details that I never really think about but yeah it's a pretty direct statement that whether Griffith admits it to himself, he thinks of the Hawks as his friends deep down.

Thanks for pointing this out!

pulling her closer by their intertwined pinkies, a gentle, fond smile, the kind that was only reserved for ivy, graced his features. he took his pinky back, but only to take her face carefully in his hands, fingers beginning to thread themselves among her hair as his thumbs caressed her cheeks. “then you’re going to be spending most of it hungover at my place, and i’ll find a way to get over having to share you with the toilet. then we can profess promises between barf sessions,” he chuckled, “i don’t give a shit if you’re going to feel awful, ives, you’re my girl. you've got to let me take care of you, at least this once.” it was bolder than usual for him, and there was a chance that she’d regret it all tomorrow — or forget this all happened — but conrad and the few drinks he’d had took his shot. “what do you say?”

this was unfamiliar territory to her: drunkenly begging for reassurance from someone who didn't owe her a thing. ivy never usually got to this point with men — let alone the best man she knew. with conrad, the blonde wanted to seem unbothered. like she was fine with being just friends. friends that undressed each other, that shared secrets, that kissed as though the 'normal' part of their friendship depended on it. it wasn't like this with anyone else. ivy couldn't bear the thought of him enjoying it more with someone who mattered less to him. with his pinky wrapped against hers, ivy’s gaze shifted from conrad’s eyes to his hand — then back again. “i'm going to spend most of tomorrow hungover.” nudging a knee into conrad’s, the blonde drunkenly continued. “so, unless you want to spend the day professing your love while you hold back my hair, maybe we should save the promises for the day after.”

Today in Christian History

Today is Thursday, March 21st, 2024. It is the 81st day of the year in the Gregorian calendar; Because it is a leap year, 285 days remain until the end of the year.

1526: In Zurich, Conrad Grebel, Felix Manz, and George Blaurock escape from prison down a rope. Pacifist Anabaptists, they believed Christians should not hold power, but had been condemned to life imprisonment on concocted charges of fomenting revolution. Captured again that year, Manz and Blaurock will be again imprisoned, and Manz will be executed by drowning in 1527.

1556: Archbishop Thomas Cranmer is burned alive on orders of Mary Tudor, officially because of his “heresies” (he had been a leader in the English Reformation), but actually because of his role in providing King Henry VIII with a divorce from Mary’s mother Catherine many years earlier.

1656: Death of the archbishop of Armagh, James Ussher. His Annales Veteris et Novi Testamenti proposed a biblical chronology that placed the creation of the world in 4004 BC, and his dates will be incorporated into the notes of many Bible versions.

1806: Burial of David Dale, a Scottish manufacturer and philanthropist who sought to alleviate the condition of the poor by providing food, housing, and education at his mills. He had opened new mills to provide work for the unemployed. Strongly evangelical, he served as a lay preacher and headed many philanthropic endeavors, and was known as a lenient magistrate.

1843: Gungaram Mundel contracts cholera. He had been the first convert at Khari Baptist Church, Calcutta, and his profession of faith had eased the way for other Indians of the area to follow Christ.

1863: Death of Davis Griffiths, a missionary to Madagascar, who had translated the Bible into the Malagasy language.

1965: Baptist minister Martin Luther King, Jr (pictured above). leads more than three thousand civil rights demonstrators on a march from Selma, Alabama, to Montgomery. By the time they reach their destination four days later, the number of protesters will have swelled to twenty-five thousand.

1979: Muslim militants burn down the fifth-century historical Coptic Church of Saint Mary the Virgin in Old Cairo.

1994: The people of Augusta, Georgia, dedicate a monument on Green Street to the memory of Christian philanthropist Emily Harvey Thomas Tubman.

2007: Teacher Christianah Oluwasesin of Nigeria is beaten to death by a mob on an accusation that she touched a student’s handbag which had a Koran in it, thus defiling the Koran.
