The Tapasa Explained - The Kushan Empire’s Superhuman Warriors, Extreme Training and Hidden Strength

When you think of fantasy and sword and sorcery stories, super soldiers are the farthest thing from what you expect to be a part of them. Yet Berserk features quite a few of them, and before you get it wrong, no, we’re not talking about Guts.

So in this video, we’ll take a look at their history, how they became indestructible weapons of destruction, and what role they might play in the finale of Berserk. Without further ado, let’s dive right into it!
