Okay, first off, there's only been like three instances of monster rape in the entirety of Berserk, and each time it's supposed to freak/gross you out. It's completely different in purpose to normal fanservice, which is put in to other anime and manga just to attract more viewers. Not to mention how fundamentally different graphically depicted monster rape and a panty shot are. If you want to talk about fanservice in Berserk, you should be talking about the constant bare female chests, and Miura's creepy fixation with sexuallizing young characters.I find it hypocritical for Berserk fans to complain about fanservice when the berserk manga features monster rape consistently.
In other news, for those that haven't seen it, the first fall anime season chart is out.

Not a whole lot looks interesting to me, but I will definitely be watching Shin Sekai Yori (Hadn't even heard of it before I saw this, but it seems like it could be really good. Apparently the novel it's based on has won awards), the new JJBA anime, and Gothicmade (Whenever the hell this actually comes out. This thing's been getting pushed back for years now). I might watch the Tiger and Bunny or Madoka Magica movies if they significantly change things from the anime (Since they're just movie versions of what happened in the show).
